You first, Dad!
Be happy the Duggars are not Muslim extremists
OBL has nothing on my old man. We tromped around the swamps of Michigan though, makes the desert downright inviting....
‘Do not think about foxes or snakes or tempting camels, or beckoning sheep waggling their inviting nether-regions, no..! Never do that..! Never lust for wide-eyed desert boys..!!!”
What a nut. He had his own little hitler youth going.
When the children complained that they were cold bin Laden simply told them to cover themselves with dirt and said that they would be ‘warm under what nature provides.’
AH! The dirt nap!
re: Train His Sons As Suicide Bombers
I wonder what constitutes ‘training’ for a suicide bomber? It seems pretty straightforward to me, strap it on and move to the desired location.

SNIPPET: “He also banned the use of electrical appliances in his home and tried to toughen up his sons by making them climb desert mountains without water.
Details from the home life of the founder of al Qaeda have emerged in the book Najwa has written with his fourth son Omar.”
SNIPPET: “Najwa married her cousin Bin Laden when he was 17 and she was 15 and went on to bear him seven sons, including Omar, and four daughters.
He went on to take a total of six wives and kept them in seclusion in spartan homes in Saudi Arabia and Sudan where they were not allowed to use electrical appliances, according to the book to be published in Britain in November.”
SNIPPET: “The young couple travelled to the United States soon after the 1979 Iranian revolution, where Bin Laden met Abdullah Azzam, the radical Palestinian cleric regarded as his ideological mentor.
Soon after he began journeying to Pakistan to support the anti-Soviet resistance.”
“...had at least one gold-coloured Mercedes and once bought a speedboat.”
SNIPPET: “However in lighter moments his sons admired his horsemanship and he liked to show off his mathematical ability by challenging people to beat his arithmetic with a calculator.”
SNIPPETS from the link in post no. 1:
SNIPPET: "Even the children’s pets were not safe from bin Laden’s particular brand of total religious fanaticism.
He ordered a much-loved pet monkey to be run over because it ‘was not a monkey at all, but was a Jewish person turned into a monkey by the hand of God.’
And a litter of puppies the boys adopted was gassed by al Qaeda fighters to see how long it would take them to die."
SNIPPET: "Bin Laden did not hesitate in training his sons to be suicide bombers as they grew older."
SNIPPET: "While she remains married to him Najwa says she has not spoken to Osama since the 9/11 attacks and does not know where he is. She now lives in a secret location in the Middle East with her son Omar."
