Forums - General - Bin Laden told children 'live in peace in the West'

Slain Al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden urged his children to go live peacefully in the West and get a university education, his brother-in-law said in an interview published Sunday.

Zakaria al-Sadah, the brother of bin Laden's Yemeni fifth wife Amal, told Britain's Sunday Times newspaper that the Saudi-born extremist believed his children "should not follow him down the road to jihad."

"He told his own children and grandchildren, 'Go to Europe and America and get a good education,'" al-Sadah told the Sunday Times.

Al-Sadah said bin Laden told them: "You have to study, live in peace and don't do what I am doing or what I have done."

Bin Laden was killed in a commando raid in May 2011 by US Navy SEALS at a house in the garrison town of Abbottabad, northwest Pakistan, where he had been living for several years.

Al-Sadah said that in November he had seen his sister for the first time since she was shot in the knee during the raid, and had since been allowed to have a number of meetings with her in the presence of guards.

He said the three wives and nine children who were in the compound -- some are bin Laden's children and others are his grandchildren -- have been held for months in a three-room flat in Islamabad.

They are guarded by Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) spy agency, he said.

The Sunday Times published what it said was the first photograph to show some of the young children from the compound: two sons and a daughter, and two grandsons and a granddaughter.

The children were still traumatised after seeing the raid in which bin Laden died, al-Sadah said.

"These children have seen their father killed and they need a caring environment, not a prison -- whatever you think of their father and what he has done," he said.

...until you're horrifically murdered by a terrorist attack from one of my followers.



Quadaffi said something similar, albeit with a different tone. He said that Islam didn't need bombs and guns, but that fifty million muslims in Europe would assure it becomes a muslim continent.

Haha, my thoughts exactly.

Fuck that, I don't want little mini-terrorists running around here plotting revenge for their father's death.

All of Bin Laden's family and friends who aided and abetted the criminal fugitive and the former number one most wanted man by the FBI are guilty by association. 

Hypocrisy. A man who wanted to destroy the foundations of peace, freedom, liberty and democracy in the West. He wants his children to live their lives in the West. 



Quite an odd thing to say. Makes you wonder about what exactly his motivations were.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Feel free to send em over here!

Seriously, they've done nothing wrong themselves.
