Osama bin Laden

Osama Bin Laden was first recognized for resisting the Soviet occupation forces invading Afghanistan in the 1980s.

$25 million dollar capture but he was killed instaed on the evening of may 1st 2011 by the navy seals from Virginia beach

He believed in a radicalized version of the Islamic faith (not saying that all are radical) and believed that everyone should be that way. America was unlike this and he wanted to change it. Examples of things he hated were free trade, voting, and women having power and working.

Osama bin Laden was found in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

no they captured him in is compound abottabad Pakistan in Asia

all i know is that when the Soviets tried to occupy Afghanistan, he helped the revolt. he was in charge of gathering Muslims to help them rebel.

Yes, he was involved in the 911 attack.

There is no credible evidence that the US trained OBL. In the 80's the US did provide

arms and material to the Afghan freedom fighters, the mujahideen, who were trying to drive the Soviets out of their country. At the same time, the mujahideen were also receiving support from many other countries which were Muslim. They were

also receiving aid from private Muslims, among them Bin Laden, who was providing his own money and helping raise money.

The mujahideen were beijng aided by some Muslim fighters from other countries and among them was Bin Laden. So, yes, Bin Laden and the US were fighting the same

enemy at the same time, but there is no evidence that he received training from the US. Some people take this simple truth and try to expand it without basis.

Besides the lack of affirmitive evidence, the strongest arguments against the US training Bin Laden are:

1 - The number of Mulsim fighters in Afghanistan that were from outside the country

was very small, a few thousand compared to the hundreds of thousands of indigenous Afghans. So, there would not have been much point to trying to engage with rag tag forces from other countries inside Afghanistan when there were plenty of Afghans that were highly motivated fighters.

2 - The US aid and arms to the mujahideen was delivered via Pakistan and Pakistan would not allow the US to distribute the arms and aid within Afghanistan. Pakistan insisted on doing it themselves.

3 - While we shared a common enemy, the Muslims like Bin Laden had very different religious and social beliefs than the West and it would have been difficult and dangerous for the US to engage with and train them directly. They were already causing carnage for the Russians with WW1 vintage rifles and they knew how to conduct their guerrilla style war. What they needed most from the US were specific arms, like the Stinger missle to greatly increase their firepower. To train them how to fire a shoulder launced rocket was clearly within the capability of the Pakistanis. i think time magazine said that bin laden was their he is Saudi they consider other Muslims not their equal and some generals insulted him too

he was killed by the fbi

He was in charge of the terrorist group that atta ked the USA

Osama bin Laden is the founder of the terrorist organization Al Qa'eda and was the most wanted terrorist by US government authorities. Bin Laden was the supposed mastermind of the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the US and was in hiding for nearly a decade. In 9/11 over 3,000 people died. He was killed on May 1, 2011 by the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) and four men, including Osama, died in the attack. No American was wounded or killed. President Obama ordered the attack after receiving intelligence of bin Laden's location in a compound in Pakistan.

For more information on the man and the terrorist organization, see the Related Link.

well first because he and his followers believe the west is evil and the attack was part of their fight against that evil. Secondly he is an terrorist.

The Rewards For Justice Program, United States Department of State, is offering a reward of up to $25 million for information leading directly to the apprehension or conviction of Usama Bin Laden. An additional $2 million is being offered through a program developed and funded by the Airline Pilots Association and the Air Transport Association.

It is not known who exactly shot him. It was a group of Navy SEALs who attacked his compound in Pakistan.

It was announced on Sunday, May 1, 2011 that Osama Bin Laden was killed by US troops on the ground in a 40-minute firefight. It is reported that he was killed by a group of 20-25 Navy SEALs under the direction of the CIA. The Navy SEALs are a part of the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC). The troops arrived in two helicopters. Four men, including Osama, as well as one woman (who was used as a human shield) died in the attack. No American was wounded or killed. Osama bin Laden was killed in the last five to 10 minutes of the siege. Osama was shot once in the head and once in the chest.

Yes, Osama bin Laden was a Muslim, although he was a different kind of Muslim. He was a Islamic extremist. That is he considered himself a Muslim; but he had very extreme views. He believed that everyone should be a Muslim and anyone who wasn't should be killed.

He was the mastermind who planned the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks. He said to use one big plane, (each) to crash into the buildings, instead of a lot of small planes as his terrorists suggested. And he is suspected of most of the terrorist attacks. The FBI wants him badly enough that if someone can direct them where he is they are offering $25 million. HE is the most wanted terrorist.

Osama bin Laden died May 1st, 2011, at age 54.

The U.S. military have placed a bounty of 10 million usd on his head.

According to most people, yes, he is a bad man. He is usually considered a terrorist, and terrorists are usually considered bad people. His followers, of course, don't think he's a bad man. But they're all terrorists, too.

He did not go to college in the US.

His father, Mohammed bin Laden, took numerous wives and fathered about 50 children. Osama was either the 17th son, or the 25th son, depending on various reports. Regardless, in a society where status within a family is highly important, bin Laden would have been of relatively low rank

Osama (Usama) bin Laden was killed May 2, 2011 (Pakistan is one day ahead) or May 1, 2011 (US date). He was killed about 30 miles northeast of the capital.

Yes for help because of his injuries like kidney disease so he need treatment. Then he when to hiding and no one know where he is because they were blowing up mountains because they thought he was in a cave but the Muslims may still have his body if he is dead because they probably still think that people are afraid of him so that is the truth.
