Policy Hitman From friend to foe

Bin Laden is notorious personality throughout the planet. The Part of earth which is now perceived as Saudi Arabia lastly part of Ottoman Empire which in the reign of King Ibn-Saud declared himself independent in 1925 after capturing major cities of Makkah in 1924 and Madina in 1925. As previously Id written about how the different nations were carved out of Ottoman Empire, Saudi Arabia was one of them. Ibn Saud eliminated the Wahabi sects of Saudis to modernize Saudi Arabia, Wahabis sect was inspired by King Al Wahab of 1743. Muhammad Bin Laden, father of Osama bin laden had 22 wives who came from Yemen and started Construction business in Saudi Arabia. Osama was a young boy in 1960s, his pictures and authenticated data is not available due to Wahabis strict laws against photography and else like. Another informative fact Id like to put in here that Saudi Arabia was a poor and desert area which became the resource of 20th centurys capitalist economy after the discovery of oil in 1930s and Ally of US. Osama Bin laden hustled for Jihad in 1979 (year of Iranian Revolution) like many other patriots against the occupation in Afghanistan. Soviets entered in Afghanistan to support their communist government. This Jihad in Afghanistan is known as First Afghan War which was against Soviets that were super power of that time. This war was aided by US and Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries, the worst part is that besides aiding Saudi Arabia was infusing wahabisim and Jihad culture in Afghanistan and Pakistan, and sowed the seed of terrorism there. The practical work of recruitment actually had done by Pakistani government, ISI and CIAs collaboration, which eventualized in the face (establishment) of Al-Qaida. The Services Office that supported foreign mujahedeen traveling to Afghanistan to fight the Soviets was set-up in Peshawar, Pakistan in 1984. In 1986, Osama bin Laden formed his own group of Arab Afghan fighters and built them a based called the Lions den near the Afghan border with Pakistan. In 1991 Soviets collapsed and after visiting Pakistan Bin Laden was exiled to Sudan from where he was expelled on American pressure. In 1990, Iraq captured Kuwait and threatened Saudi Arabia; in 1991 US led coalition 500,000 troops removed Iraq from there and remained in Saudi Arabia after war which was the cause of wrath of Bin Laden against US. In 1998 Bin Laden passed fatwa to kill American whenever and wherever be seen. In 2000, Al-Qaeda suicide bombers attacked the destroyer USS Cole in Aden harbor, killing 19 U.S. sailors and severely damaging the vessel. After that all, as all media was keep telling the whole world that Bin laden had designed the 9/11, which erupted the WAR OF CRUSADES in 20th century against Terrorists, and there should be no a dual perspective that Terrorists are only Muslims and no one else. This so called War on Terrorism is against all Muslims like Iraq, Afghanistan, and Somalia and many others. No doubt Gadhafi was once friend of US became eventually foe; Saddam Hussein
