World News > Terrorist watchdogs after bin Laden's pop star niece
New York, Apr 1 : Bin Laden is not the best surname to have these days, especially if you are Osama's niece.
And Waffa bin Laden seems to be in big trouble, as American terrorist watchdogs think she may have known about her uncle's September 11 attack on New York weeks before it happened, according to a report in rate the music.com.
The wannabe star reportedly told her friends to move out of New York weeks before the tragedy and then left the country herself.
Waffa had a clear view of the Twin Towers, which were destroyed when two hijacked planes were flown into them, from her 6,000 dollars per month loft home in the city.
And April Gallop, who co-runs 9/11 Citizens Watch - a group set up to monitor the questioning of terrorists - believes Waffa was one of thousands of Saudi Arabians living in America, who were tipped off about the terrorist plans.
"Following 9/11, when all aircraft travel had been grounded, there were Saudi families that were quickly flown out of the country", she said.
But Waffa was among many Saudis who left America before the attacks.
American terrorist expert Larry Johnson insists investigations should be made. "It is likely that some Saudis may have known about the attacks beforehand and fled." (ANI)

Waffa bin LadenEVERYONE's galumphing around hunting that bed sheet Osama bin Laden. Why not follow Waffa bin Laden, his handsome niece. She had a million dollar loft on Spring Street with $6,000 a month maintenance. Over a Thai restaurant, it featured a huge mural the length of her whole wall. The mural was of The Twin Towers.
She also has a place in Switzerland, flat in London and schleps through the Riviera in season with $500 designer jeans, Jimmy Choos and friends who are downtown European-type jet-setters. She speaks of Uncle Osama. She's worth, give or take a few of those Audemars Piguet diamond watches she wears, $30 mil. Twenty-eight, the pop singer wannabe now lives in Europe, she still speaks to New York pals who are in showbiz and record producers. She invites them to visit her. She talks music. She gets showbiz advice. She had a boyfriend/manager who called her "the next Madonna."
Waffa was very out front p.r.-wise pre-9/11. Supermarket tabs, newspapers, TV blondes interviewed her. Then, two months before 9/ll, she told friends, "Get out of New York for a while." And she, too, got out of New York.
Her father, Yeslam, is one of Osama's 29 brothers. Maybe Uncle's hiding but she isn't. Anyone checking out Waffa, her kinfolk or her telephone?

Seems like the only thing wrong we did was take out the most politically expedient actors, and not the ones that would have really hurt. Hell, 19/20 had Saudi passports? What is wrong w this picture.

IMO, the whole world, especially islamic knew of some big pending attacks.
The kids in NYC, Texas saying so, the warnings to businessmen in Egypt, the infamous calendar.
We were the only ones in the dark.
