Giovanni Di Stefano, in an interview with FHM (UK) magazine says the following:
Q: "Didn't you once meet Bin Laden?"
A: "Yes, In Baghdad in 1998. He was a nobody back then and I didn't take much notice. He was educated, had very soft skin and shook my hand like a woman. He inspired a lot of the Mujahideen in Kosovo to do some pretty horrific things to the Serbs.
My friend Arkan [the late Serbian warlord] said to me once, "Why didn't you kill him?"
I probably would have done if I'd known who he was."
Why no link?
Balkans Bump!
OBL-Saddam bump!
OK, I now think we shouldn't kill Osama and just release him into general prison population LOL!
Has met UBL, was supposedly Arkan's business partner, and he knows Bill Clinton. What's not to love.
Link?
The interview is not online only in a magazine.
Not in the online edition. Only in paper version.

Ping a rooni
(the womanish handshake of Osama is mere cherry on top)
Terrible things to the Serbs...the Serbs got the bummest rap of them all.
What is "FHM"? I see you said this is an off-line source.
Thanks.
I just read that article and laughed about the soft hands. I wouldn't have quite called OBL a "nobody" in 1998 as this person does but that's just me. LOL
Oh, FHM is THAT kind of magazine...like Maxim?
LOL
Well!
That's what I thought...the attempt to plead "I didn't know who he was" is most telling.
Most telling, indeed.
Hell, I thought the only interviews they published has questions like, "are those real or implants?"
