Smile masks a heart of hate
Family pose ... Bin Laden with 22
of his brothers and sisters
Picture: CAMERA PRESS
THE smiling lad ringed in our picture looks like he doesn't have a care in the world as he poses with 22 of his brothers and sisters. But the 14-year-old is Osama bin Laden - and within a few years the grinning schoolboy was on his way to becoming the world's most cold-hearted mass murderer. The bin Laden children lined up next to a pink Cadillac for this snapshot on a trip to Falun, Sweden, in 1971. The holiday was paid for by their father Mohammed, a billionaire building tycoon. Osama inherited a fortune when his dad died soon afterwards - and used it to build a worldwide network of terror. |

When I see a picture like this, with all of these happy, smiling young people, I experience the same sort of feeling as when I learn that a woman of my acquaintance has murdered the unborn child in her womb.
It puts you in mind of Hannah Arendt's famous saying about the banality of evil.

His sisters sure are being good little Muslim girls with those head to foot veils they're wearing...

Those are Osama's sisters showing facial skin?
I wonder if he has since thrown acid on them.
To: SlickWillard
hehe we should drop these pictures of groovy Austin bin Laden all over afghanistan. Can't wait to see what the mullahs will think of Osama's shagadelic behavior

This article indicates that Osama is one of about 54 brothers and sisters - I don't think anyone is sure of the exact number. Also: Osama seems to be the only child born of a Saudi mother.

"The bin Laden children lined up next to a pink Cadillac for this snapshot on a trip to Falun, Sweden, in 1971." That's not a Cadillac, it's a Lincoln.

...My fantasy cast of "Fatwa Ali Bertah" -- all-Arab remake of the classic 1970's American children's cartoon Fat Albert, in which Ali Bertah (a fictionalized Osama Bin Laden, identified in the red circle) declares a fatwa (Islamic religious decree) inciting death to the Jews and Western infidels from his luxuriously equipped pink cadillac in Falun, Sweden.

As a not-entirely-unrelated sidenote, it must be hell being the 17th of 52 brothers and sisters...(only 21 of them immemorialized here in this photo taken in Sweden circa 1971) ...Talk about Attention Deficit Syndrome...

To any one who was ever on a Saudia flight from Saudia Arabia to anywhere, all the girls arrived on the plane with all the robes and vails. Once the planes are airborne, out come the t-shirts with boobs and skin tight jeans. All little cuttie pies, wanting to party hearty. All the Islamic crap was just that, crap. Just look at all the history of these pias folks. DUH! It's the $do$re$me and always has been.
At least, they are 'sport's men'. Forget about the birds in the sandy areas. Hopefully, the Royal Family will enjoy their winter in Switzerland, holding out for a more peaceful time in their Kingdom. What a joke!
