Bin Laden Son Wants to Be Peace Activist

CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - Omar Osama bin Laden bears a striking resemblance to his notorious father—except for the dreadlocks that dangle halfway down his back. Then there's the black leather biker jacket.

The 26-year-old does not renounce his father, al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden, but in an interview with The Associated Press, he said there is better way to defend Islam than militancy: Omar wants to be an "ambassador for peace" between Muslims and the West.

Omar—one of bin Laden's 19 children—raised a tabloid storm last year when he married a 52-year-old British woman, Jane Felix-Browne, who took the name Zaina Alsabah. Now the couple say they want to be advocates, planning a 3,000-mile horse race across North Africa to draw attention to the cause of peace.

"It's about changing the ideas of the Western mind. A lot of people think Arabs—especially the bin Ladens, especially the sons of Osama—are all terrorists. This is not the truth," Omar told the AP last week at a cafe in a Cairo shopping mall.

Of course, many may have a hard time getting their mind around the idea of "bin Laden: peacenik."

"Omar thinks he can be a negotiator," said Alsabah, who is trying to bring her husband to Britain. "He's one of the only people who can do this in the world."

Omar lived with the al-Qaida leader in Sudan, then moved with him to Afghanistan in 1996.

[Brilliant]

In that case, tell us where he is.

[Republic Rocker]

Uh OK...., now bring us the walking stick of the old man!

The 26-year-old does not renounce his father, al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden

No point in reading any further than that. He is one of "them".

“It’s about changing the ideas of the Western mind. A lot of people think Arabs—especially the bin Ladens, especially the sons of Osama—are all terrorists. This is not the truth,”

PROVE IT.

[flynmudd]

Bin Laden’s Son Wants to be Ambassador of Peace? Yeah and I want a billion dollars and the primaries to be over.

[Augustinian monk]

“It’s about changing the ideas of the Western mind. A lot of people think Arabs—especially the bin Ladens, especially the sons of Osama—are all terrorists. This is not the truth,”

Yeah. Start with changing western minds. /s

[RightWhale]

This is not the son who is leader of Alqaida. That son is in Iran.

[llevrok]

and I want to be considered a hottie by Playboy bunnies. But some things just aren’t credible, Mr Obama Jr.

[El Cid]

OK - If he wants to be an ‘Ambassador for Peace’ - Follow the Prince of Peace and preach HIM to one and all...

[tpanther]

I was all ready to reply:

OK bring us your father’s head on a stick and we’ll talk.

As I scrolled down I saw the first two replies...LOL

Omar Osama bin Laden:

[rockabyebaby]

Yo Omar,,,,,,where’s your daddy?

[SoldierDad]

Renounced Islamo-facism, rally Muslim outrage against Islamic terrorism and their jihad, and report your father’s location to American authorities forthwit and we might actually believe that you truly wish to be an ambassador for peace between Muslims and the West. Until then, go pound sand!!!!!

[sono]

Patricide would be a good start.

[GovernmentShrinker]

If we knew where he was, so would his Papa’s henchmen, and he’d be dead in a jiffy.

[Piranha]

How nice.

[GovernmentShrinker]

That may have been quoted out of context. After all, it says he’s planning to publicize his views via a horse race across North Africa, not North America.

[Right Wing Assault]

He is one of "them".

Yes, any lie is allowed to advance islam.

[Halls]

ok.

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

Bring us daddy’s rotting corpse and we’ll talk.

[mkjessup]

Got a better idea Omar, let’s work on changing the MUSLIM mind so that you and your ilk come to the realization that you’ve been bowing down not to Almighty God, aka King Jesus Christ, but to some demonic entity calling itself ‘allah’, and that “every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall confess that *Jesus Christ Is Lord!* and that includes YOU!

planning a 3,000-mile horse race across North Africa to draw attention to the cause of peace.

What the crap...? That reminds me a bit of the movie 'Hidalgo.'

This is the weirdest story I've seen in a long time. A bin Laden an ambassador for peace?? HAHAHA. OK then, tell us where Osama is ...crickets...

He doesn't want peace, otherwise he would have denounced his father and al-Qaida and told us where he is. But he's done none of that. He's trying to fool us infidels. And with some people, i.e. multiculti's and "why can't we all get along" types, he may have succeeded....

[reagan_fanatic]

The 26-year-old does not renounce his father

That's all I need to know.

He can take his wish and cram it where the sun doesn't shine.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

a 3,000-mile horse race across North Africa to draw attention to the cause of peace.

That'll solve it about as well as Woodstock solved the recreational drug use problem.

[mnehrling]

Its funny how Bin Ladin’s kids all would be considered infidels by Bin Ladin. A daughter (or niece?) who is a lingerie model, a couple of the kids owning stakes in gambling and distilleries, and most embracing western values and culture.

Glad they are nothing like their dad.

[tennmountainman]

Or send him down to no man;s land on the Palistan/Afgan border and let him work his “Peace Magic” there.

[libh8er]

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Thanks for checkin’ in, Ali G. wannabe.

[353FMG]

Waterboard the guy and find OBL.

[G8 Diplomat]

OK, here we go. The best reaction to this story:

[Quilla]

“Hildago” used to be one of my favorite movies and I’d watch it every time it played. That is, until I saw Viggo Morgenstern (sp) was endorsing little Dennis for President. Sheesh.

[Domandred]

a 3,000-mile horse race across North Africa to draw attention to the cause of peace.

Missed that in my first scan...

How about if we let a US cowboy riding a Mustang in. He wins then Omar tells us where daddy is... ... ...

[Domandred]

Sooo late to the party...I’m going back to work now

[af_vet_rr]

If that's his 52 year old wife, she's in good shape.

Still, I have a feeling they'll both end up dead (I know, the irony, he wants to give peace a chance, but all his father's henchman will do is give him an early death).

[BenLurkin]

Just give us papa’s address....

[Cecily]

He looks better without those stupid dreadlocks.

[F15Eagle]

Since he's frankly stating he sides with the terrorists, by not denouncing daddy, I say to him, go ahead, hop on your horse and start that ride. We'll also be riding for peace ... the peace of removing terrorists, their enablers and supporters from the face of Earth. We didn't want this war but they certainly do.

[coconutt2000]

Islamic idea of peace = “Put down your weapons and submit to the will of Allah.”

[TRY ONE]

Good! Dennis Kucinich wants to form the Dept. of Peace! Let OBL Jr. be the Head Peace-nick!

[lilylangtree]

“Omar lived with the al-Qaida leader in Sudan, then moved with him to Afghanistan in 1996.”

Yeah, when Osama started planning the 911 attack. I remember reading where analysts post-911 said that planning the 911 attacked started as early as 1996. Where was Omar then? Neck-deep in helping dear old daddy. Cough up your daddy and then we’ll listen to your islamic peace crap.

[Walkingfeather]

If Muslim terrorist are willing to die for their cause do you think ole’ Omar here might be willing to die for the cause of peace as a blood sacrifice? Yeah didn’t think so...

[longtermmemmory]

VEeeee only vant peeeazeful coexisztaaaance.

(does he want poland too?)

[Joe Boucher]

Pretty easy to paint the entire Bin Laden family with a broad brush.
I haven’t seen to much contrition for what their family member did.
Still like to see the entire family ostracized at the very least and burned at the stake in general.

"Omar—one of bin Laden's 19 children—raised a tabloid storm last year when he married a 52-year-old British woman, Jane Felix-Browne, who took the name Zaina Alsabah."

Apparently, the Englishwoman whom he married is a real piece of work. Loopy since birth. See photo below and read the attached very revealing article. I think the funniest part of the article in the Daily Mail is when, during a telephone interview, there is a sound of choking. The interviewer expresses alarm. Then the lass comes back on and says, "Sorry - I was trying to take a drink while wearing my burka." Kinda says everything about the loopiness of the female and the bankruptcy of Islamic culture, doesn't it?

OBL’s living torture is to know that this dweeb is his son. Sure he has a lot of little dweeb son’s running around. But with an ego like his, it has to bug him to no end that this son is such a wimp.

Proof is that sonny married a much older woman, thus demonstrating he didn’t want a wife, he wanted a second mother. In a macho Arab culture having a perpetual mamma’s boy for a son, has to be getting under OBL’s skin. :)

[SAMS]

That’t nice, ‘cept I don’t want him “negotiated with” I want him dead.
