    Western educated man who is pissed off at the US for abandoning his political ascension? Slightly better than a meth addicted turboracist, a crazy murderer, and a child molester. I doubt bin Laden is going to be able to do much opinion changing in a single evening and I doubt that he’d outright kill or molest them.

      Bin Laden fathered 24 children, the first of which was with his first cousin when she was 16 and he was 17. They went on to have ten more children. The other 13 were spread amongst five other wives. They also found several beheading videos on his computer. He also believed muslims should kill any US civilians they find until the US withdraws support for Israel.

      I think definitely killing and maybe molestation would be on the table.

        Lots of people have gore videos on their devices, doesn’t mean they will do it to someone any chance they get, correct me if im wrong, al-qaeda didn’t do beheadings, that was ISIS. And lots of muslims in palestine, afghanistan, and iran also hold beliefs about killing US civilians. We shouldn’t judge these things in a vaccum but rather in the appropriate context of US actions. US imperialism has been the number one cause of such sentiments.

        He was very ideologically aligned and islam was a central piece in that ideology. And islam forbids going against your words, it would undermine his ideology a lot if he violated the trust.

        Thankfully I’m not an American, so think my theoretical family would be more likely okay with him than the others.
