In case you missed the PBS show, "Meeting Osama bin Laden," you might want to click this link and order it before it becomes illegal.
i didn't know what to expect when i watched the PBS programme last night, but what i saw almost made me want to pick up a Qur'an and seek out the nearest al Qaeda recruiter.
The show was not anti-American as one would suspect, instead it painted Osama bin Laden as a human person, not some homicaidal maniac intent on killing every man, woman, and chile in Amerikkka as Rush Limbaugh and company would lead you to believe.
The hour opens up with a dispassionate look at the World Trade Center Shoah before delving into the history of the man who brought this country to its knees, and Osama's beginnings are almost like an Islamic version of the George Washington story!!!
Osama's beginnings are almost messianic, and could have qualified for an American-dream-come-true story had it taken place in this cuntry. His father walked across the desert to start a new and better life in Saudi Arabia, and quickly became one of the biggest construction magnates in that land. Mohammed bin Laden could have been content with his billions, but instead he used his wealth and construction expertise to rebuild all the major mosques in the Islamic world, and if i were a young and impressionable Muslim, i would view this act with devout admiration.
The show then goes on to tell us what a devoutly religous person Osama bin Laden was from childhood, and one is left with the feeling of a young Jesus.
The intersting thing about this sympathetic documentary was the revelation of bin Laden's involvement in the Afghanistan war against Russia. Originally just a financier to the rebels, he was basically dismissed by the people who he would eventually call "my mujaheddin," but then he picked up a gun and became almost godlike!!!
You cannot debate that innocent people died on September 11, 2001...nor can you debate that innocent people are dying in Iraq almost daily, including our own soldiers!
With over a third of the world's billion Muslims under the age of 16, intelligent people should be asking themselves this question--WHO do you think these children are idolizing...a man who has actuallyFOUGHT for what he believed in, or a seeming half-wit who silver spooned his way out of a war???!!!!
As i watched the programme i could not help but notice the parallels between Osama bin Laden and George W. Bush.
BOTH are religous men, but Osama got his calling early in life, and doesn't have the debaucherous past of his Amerikkklan counterpart. GW's Deus vult call to war, essentially against Islam, sounds insincere in the ears of most of the world. The documentary pointed out that bin Laden intentionally used 15 Saudis on 9/11, and although Amerikkka would be playing into bin Laden's hands if she had attacked Saudi Arabia after the war in Afghanistan, America would not have such a tarnished image worldwide.
Instead, GW & company chose to fight for the Anschluss of Iraq, and we all know the results of that!!!
"Liberal" Amerikkklans are intent on comparing THIS war to Vietnam, but as Meeting Osama bin Laden showed last night, the excursion into Iraq is slowly becoming a parallel of the Russian war in Afghanistan!!!
And when you factor in THIS (which i saw on drudge.com).....
