Who is Sheik on Bin Laden Video?
New York Post | 12/13/01

Posted on 12/13/2001 6:27:40 AM PST by MichaelP

The New York Post reports that a disabled Saudi Sheik was present at the dinner party where Bin Laden boasts of his success. They also report that he has been identified but that his identity isn't being released. My question is why not? Appeasement of the Saudis maybe?

Maybe we can figure out who this is. How many Saudi Sheiks in a wheelchair with ties to Bin Laden can there be?

Tony Snow just said, on FOX, that they referr to Osama as a Sheik, even though he is not. Are you watching the video? His kids are wearing new Nikki shoes.

Sheik is a term of respect in the Middle East. It can mean something as simple as the head of a large family. Bin Laden certainly qualifies on that ground alone. Doesn't he have 15 children? I think we could probably substitute the word *leader* for sheif, although someone better schooled in Middle Eastern culture may disagree.

My information on the word *sheik* comes from a Lebanese that I used to know.

Whose kids have on new shoes?

But I did get the impression the guy was from Saudi Arabia. I wonder who he is.

On the tape, they show the downed U.S. helio. Some kids are playing with the tire. Tony Snow says those are Bin Ladens kids. As the scan the helio tire, you can see the shoes on the kids. Nice Nikki brand new tennis shoes, LOL. It just seemed strange to me to see such nice shoes on children in that region, while we see pictures of everyone else wearing rags.

That Sheik is unknown says Tony Snow. He also mentioned that he was a Saudi. Whoever he is, he should be picked up and thrown in jail, if he isn't already dead.

I'd like to know. Wonder if it was any past students from ERAU. They had Saudi princes and sheiks go through there. Time to go get the Student Year Book from over there.

Also note that during what FOX termed the BORING part of the video, when the children played around the helicopter "remains", it appears that at one point the ADULTS gather the children for a photo op in front of one of the largest pieces of the wreckage. It looks and sounds like they are singing, while seated, as someone is taking pictures.(someone other than the videographer) Training of terrorists begins at an early age. This will be a VERY long battle!!!

These folks are nut balls! How can they belive that raising an entire generation with hate, will perserve their land? Really sick, I tell you. Sicko, and their children have no future if they continue in their foots steps. How can they call this loving their children?
