Osama Bin Laden

The Man Behind it All!

Osama Bin Laden was the founder of Al Qaeda. This was a militant organization in charge for the attack of 9/11. He was born March 10, 1957 in Riyadh Saudi Arabia. The word Al Qaeda stood for the base. He formed this organization because of the public speaking he did in Afghanistan, and he felt that his own people were not listening. So Osama rebelled against the Saudis Government which later caused a forcing of his exile in Afghanistan were he then moved to Sudan (1992). He recruited people based upon their obedience and listening skills, and their pledge to follow there superiors. There whole goal was to rid the Jihadist cause around the world. Under his authority the group funded and started worldwide attacks. By 1994 after the continuance of destruction the Saudi government forced Osama to relinquish his Saudi citizenship, and confiscated his passport. His family then disowned him forcing to live elsewhere. While living on his own he attempted a new family and was forced to live a different life style. Shortly after his evil action caught up with him. In 2011 President Barack Obama announced Osama Bin Laden's death.
