That's not an answer - thats an interview with little details.
If you look at the links from that page, you'll see it's actually an extraordinary lengthy interview that details bin Ladin's "demands." Basic searches will turn up far more information; my point was that information is out there and people should not be expect to be fed it.
Well I've looked at it carefully and all I see is links to more nonsense. Let me explain this to you and hopefully provide you a well earned education. This is a picture of a child - just one out of hundreds that we evacuated to Canada from Afganistan during the russian occupation of Afganistan. http://www.pccf.net/bod/jb/misc/MCLEOD07.html I don't remember his name - like I said we handled hundreds of these kids. But this little boy is just one of many who were subjected to the russian idea of how to win a war. You may remember Declan that the russians at the time were losing the war against the afganis and they resorted to building bombs which looked like toys. The idea was to drop these bomb-toys in the hope of maiming and injuring afganis children with the ultimate hope of demoralizing the population through the victimization of their children. It did not work - but the scars are real - and damage was done. This child was lucky - after years of reconstructive surgery at the Hotel Deu hospital in Kingston Ontario he was able to walk normally again. Now I should stress the American Military at the time was instrumental in assisting us in evacuating these children and by default we saved many lives. Osama Bin Ladin and the Fatwa are of no significance to what happened in america. They are the symbols of a struggle that has been going on for many years. A struggle against oppression and planned genocide in which the United States has been a significant contributor and supporter. i.e. Israel's oppression of the palestinians, i.e. south africa, i.e. east timor etc. etc. etc. Arabs are by default very nobel, trustworthy and honourable people. But they are not cows. They will not bow their heads as their civilization is brutalized and raped. They will fight back with the vengence that is the holy jihad. Kill Osama Bin Ladin and you create another arab saint and many more holy warriors take his place. That is the nature of the beast. The terror we saw in new york and washington this week is the harvest of many years of seed planting by the US government. It represents the response of a people who have been opressed and lied to for years by a US government which claims to support the virtues of freedom and democracy yet funds terror on a world wide basis for no better reason then to make a profit. Again I say that these men who were responsible for this terror acted as judge jury and executioners. And the verdict of this self appointed inquisition was the terror we saw this week and which will be with us for many more years. And I still say to you that the reasons and the question of why this was done have yet to be provided to us. regards joe -- Joe Baptista http://www.dot-god.com/ The dot.GOD Registry, Limited The Executive Plaza, Suite 908 150 West 51st Street Tel: 1 (208) 330-4173 Manhattan Island NYC 10019 USA Fax: 1 (208) 293-9773
