Do As I Say, Not As I Do

Today was going to be a day of post on Constitution related subjects,,,,more to come later…..but with all the debate and the noise about the death of Osama bin Laden; I found an interesting piece from Newser site…..it seems that the will of Osama has been located…..

Osama bin Laden didn’t want his wives to remarry or his children to become terrorists after his death, according to what a Kuwaiti newspaper says is a copy of his will. In the document—written on a computer, dated December 2001, and signed by “your brother Abu Abdullah Osama Muhammad bin Laden”—bin Laden claims responsibility for 9/11 and many other terrorist attacks, the Guardian reports. He laments betrayal around him, apologizes for being a neglectful dad, and advises his children not to join al-Qaeda or to join “the front” to wage jihad. “I have chosen a path fraught with dangers and endured hardships, disappointment and betrayal. If it wasn’t for betrayal, things would be different today,” the will states. “As for you, my sons, forgive me if I failed to devote more of my time to you since I answered the call to jihad.” The Kuwaiti paper hasn’t revealed how it obtained the will or if it was able to authenticate it. If it is genuine, Osama must have changed his mind about his children joining the fight: His youngest son appeared in terror videos and died in Sunday’s raid.

I found the information fascinating if it is true and accurate…..how about you guys?

  1. It will be interesting to see if this is confirmed from all the data they removed from his house after killing him. If true this could be publicized around the world to let all those who are considering a life of terrorism know what he REALLY thinks about radical jihad.

    1. I agree totally…..Does no0t say much for the “cause” when he tells his sons to NOT do it….still wondering why more has NOT been on the news about this….seems it would be, as you say, a huge PR coup…..

  2. Yeah – sounds like reality was beginning to bite him in the ass (perhaps quite persistently), when it was far too late to go back, of course. What a pity it didn’t happen earlier – it would have saved a whole lot of lives on all sides.

    1. For sure…..read tomorrow….I keep up with Middle East news and there is a development that is interesting…
