No one randomly thinks "today I'm gonna fuck this country up."
I was too young to remember it, but what pushed him to the edge?
Follow up question, how can we prevent people from WANTING to do such things? It seems that more security is a band aid solution, how do we fix the problem at the source? (Terrorists, killers, etc.)

Osama was a US military asset when fighting russians for control of the oil fields. idk when but i think late cold war. Then he got sick of our shit and sent fireproof passports at our buildings from a cave in pakistan.
Read about his background and history
It’s pretty obvious
Bin Laden denied for about 2 weeks that he did 9/11 until he gave up and just accepted that he was going to be the fall guy. Also, he was Saudi royalty, not an Afghan like many people think. He wanted to have adventures so he signed up for CIA summer camp fighting Russians.
he was mad about US not having a job for him anymore
they also pulled the osama card years after he was most likely dead just to drum up some approval obama points
dont care about it enough, just want a tl;dr
why did he release videos after then?
>1920-1940: cops pose in front of the dead bodies of gangsters
>60s: glows pose with the body of Cheguevara
>80s: face of dead Ted Bundy in newspapers
>90: body of Escobar displayed on photos
>bin laden: uhhh we had um to respect the dead Osama so we took no pics also we dumped his body in the ocean cuz that's uhhh dignifying
>dont care
moron
Yes its the biggest scam I ever heared of, you know sea burial is extremly important in Islam. What a fucking bull crap.
Hard to understand what whas thinking, and what motivated his actions. For most of his life he had contact with a huge variety of secret services around the world; to think that he was a weird guy living in caves that one day planned an attack like 9/11 is plain dumb.
I don't think so. He was already responsible for bombing the American embassies in Tanzania and Kenya (1998). That is why his name came up first as people tried to figure out 9/11.
>Why did he do it?
he didn't
He even said he didn't and pointed to a "shadow governemtn" in the USA
>TLDR Israel did it
Read "Ghost Wars" and "The Looming Tower".
Osama was first angered by the American troops permitted on Saudi soil in 1990 to defend against a possible Iraqi invasion. Bin Laden literally walked up and down the halls of the Defense Ministry in Riyad, trying to convince someone that Saudis who had fought against the Russians in Afghanistan could protect the country against Iraq.
The Saudis preferred American protection. Thus began a long situation of Bin Laden falling out with the Saudi royal family and eventually being banned from returning to Saudi Arabia because he had insulted the King by saying he was not a good Muslim.
He was initially an Asset for the Americans is getting the Soviets out.
Al Qaeda eventually took over Afghanistan with the support of the US.
9/11 happens and no one claims responsibility for a couple of weeks.
He denied the whole thing in an Al-Jazeera video.
American forces recover a video of him stating that the attacks greatly benefited Islam.
Americans proceed to invade Afghanistan.
Little is heard about him in that time period.
Finally he is supposedly killed somewhere in Pakistan.
But why didn't he publicly responsibility?
This make no sense.
The whole point of a terrorist attack of this magnitude is to send a message.
"Weird guy living in caves...." -
During the mid-1990s the Arabs were using Afghanistan as a training ground for young men preparing for their jihad. There were many destinations for men after they left the training camps:
Algeria - to fight the secular government
Palestine - to fight Israel
Chechnya - to fight the Russians
You could pick your Jihad and travel to the area to link up with other fighters.
It was only a matter of time before someone began planning an attack against Americans.
Did they, now?
Can I get a source?
>publicly responsibility?
Publicly claim responsibility*
What are you talking about.
After the Soviets withdrew from Afghanistan, the country fell into battles between regional warlords.
Then the Taliban came to power around 1995, promising to end the rule of, and mistreatment by the corrupt warlords.
A good quintessential Swede
Book "Inside the Jihad".
Describes an Arab living in Europe who decided to work for French Intelligence after his brothers got arrested from planning jihad back in Algeria.
He travels to Afghanistan and describes how he got there, who he had to speak to, and what they did during their training.
He actually wrote an open letter to the American people
That video shady a fuck, they claim they found it in a random house search and there are a ton of inconsistencies in his appearance and speech.
So, you are basing this whole theory of yours on a book that speaks of some Arab living in Frog-land who wanted to "do Jihad"?
You motherfuckers are stupid. Your all fucking brainwashed "they" tried to blow up twin towers on two previous attempts and succeeded on the 3rd.
Im no expert but at least i know that, AND NO ONE EVER FUCKING MENTIONS IT.
FUCK ALL OF YOU
It also makes no sense for him to deny it.
He should want people to know, that way he sends a message.
The 1993 World Trade Center bombing was a terrorist attack on the World Trade Center, carried out on February 26, 1993, when a truck bomb detonated below the North Tower of the World Trade Center in New York City. The 1,336 lb (606 kg) urea nitrate–hydrogen gas enhanced device[1] was intended to send the North Tower (Tower 1) crashing into the South Tower (Tower 2), bringing both towers down and killing thousands of people.[2][3] It failed to do so but killed six people and injured over a thousand.[4]
He got caught in a proxy war for the USA, went alpha protocol after he realized he helped kill Muslim brothers for USA who were fighting Russia who was doing the same thing. Felt sad and conflicted. Started speaking out against acts of globalized terrorism from USA and Russia. Most likely was in on it the whole time as an asset, died and was replaced by a body double, or was actually just fucking mad and used his CIA training to kill a bunch of Americans.
All in all he got majorly played. Don't be that guy. He was the goodest of goys
Do you know why Osama was living in Afghanistan?
Because he was no longer permitted to return to Saudi Arabia because he had insulted the King.
Do you know that Bill Clinton had several chances to capture/kill Bin Laden? We knew exactly where he was living, in a typical compound with women and children.
Osama was just a puppet, nothing more
This is common knowledge
It's almost like we waited to kill a loose end after he did a bunch of dirty work and wanted to make him look bad.
Reminder that there was a rumor he died of kidney failure and couldn't get a donor.
This excellent article describes how Arab jihadists who wondered what to do after the Russians withdrew from Afghanistan, ended up turning Afghanistan into a training area for global jihad.
america.aljazeera.com
Roddham/Clinton did 9/11
You call him a loose end - but he did issue a fatwa calling for the killing of Americans in 1998. That was also when our embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed.
>read some glowie narrative about something you can't know if it happened or not
Yeah no thanks. What we do know for sure is that Osama was an asset in various locations around the world, not only Afghanistan but also Checenya and Serbia. We do know that his family has strong relations in the US and that Saudi Arabia and Israel have been allied for a long time.
>During the mid-1990s the Arabs were using Afghanistan as a training ground for young men preparing for their jihad
All part of a greater plan that saw involved the United States itself.
>Palestine - to fight Israel
The only people fighting Israel are those ideologically aligned with Iran.
He released a long open letter afterward explaining exactly why he did it. From the gist of what I remember he said that the American empire was evil and that it would be better for the world if it went down, but it was too big to directly attack so he had the hijackings carried out so that America would be provoked into invading some country in the Middle East, upon which his hope was that the war would drag on for so long and America would end up fighting so many countries on so many different fronts that it would just kinda be bled dry.
Look at all the cia activity/terrorist in 1993 and 1995 specifically. Waco etc...
>The Bojinka plot (Arabic: بوجينكا; Tagalog: Oplan Bojinka) was a large-scale, three-phase attack planned by terrorists Ramzi Yousef and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed for January 1995. They planned to assassinate Pope John Paul II, blow up 11 airliners in flight from Asia to the United States[1] with the goal of killing approximately 4,000 passengers and shutting down air travel around the world, and crash a plane into the headquarters of the CIA in Fairfax County, Virginia.[2]
Sound familiar?
>Despite careful planning, the Bojinka plot was disrupted after a chemical fire drew the attention of the Philippine National Police – Western Police District (PNP-WPD) on January 6–7, 1995. Yousef and Mohammed were unable to stage any of the three attacks. The only fatality resulted from a test bomb planted by Yousef on Philippine Airlines Flight 434 which killed one person and injured 10 others. They also planted two other bombs in a shopping mall and theater in Southern Philippines.
So cia etc cant catch these fuckers but phillipine police can?
He was extremely religious and after the Russians left Afghanistan he started to believe his own memes. He thought the mujahadeen could and should defend the Muslim world.
He hated the west, in part due to his mentor Sayyid Qutb, who studied in the us and came to hate it after some hilarious and based Americans stole his shoes while he was praying to mecca.
He had access to a vast concrete fortune he neither received nor needed assistance from the Americans and as mentioned above he hated the US and would have refused to receive any such assistance were it offered.
After his involvement in the black hawk down incident, he saw the fragility of the American public and willingness to fight. Soooo, he assumed that drawing us into a conflict not unlike Somalia and then sending body bags home would not last 18 years.
He in no way shape or form expected the 9/11 attacks to be so successful and was totally amazed that the towers fell.
It was also not too long after this that he realized he had fucked up. We had him pinned on the Afghanistan Pakistan border and he spent the day sobbing into his radio like a bitch apologizing to his fighters and telling them he was sorry for getting them killed and that they should flee.
So what have we learned?
He was not an asset.
He hated the US and was extremely religious well before 9/11.
He also completely failed to accomplish any and all of his stated goals except for getting us to bring war to him.
If you want to believe Israel played a part in the attacks fine. But it wasn't through bin laden. Maybe they approached his organization with a plan. Maybe they facilitated travel accommodation flight training passports etc. But the man himself was not knowingly involved in a false flag.
Are you implying that we purposely let Osama carry out his attack? Yeah, probably.
>Large numbers of Shias in the city and surrounding region of Gilgit were killed in a massacre that occurred in response to rumours of a massacre of Sunnis by Shias,[101] in May 1988. Shia civilians were also subjected to rape.[102]
>The massacre is alleged by B. Raman, a founder of India's Research and Analysis Wing,[103] to have been in response to a revolt by the Shias of Gilgit during the rule of military dictator Zia-ul Haq.[104] He alleged that the Pakistan Army induced Osama bin Laden to lead an armed group of Sunni tribals, from Afghanistan and the North-West Frontier Province, into Gilgit and its surrounding areas to suppress the revolt.[105]
How many zionist soldiers Osama killed? How many jews civilians?
>On January 25, 1993, outside the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) headquarters campus in Langley, Virginia, Pakistani national Mir Qazi (also spelled as Kasi or Kansi) killed two CIA employees in their cars as they were waiting at a stoplight and wounded three others.
Well then... seems pretty crazy and nonsensical to me... cia trying to justify itself and also kill off some unwanted people?
>Qazi was executed by lethal injection on November 14, 2002, at Greensville Correctional Center in Jarratt, Virginia,[16] and his body was repatriated to Pakistan
So kill the terrorist so we will never know. And do it humanely where he "wont suffer".
Just like they killed sirhan sirhan recently?
There are only those who use others, and those who get used. Get rid of your naivete and think critically. Question everything. Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear. We never saw osama die or get buried.
>Just like they killed sirhan sirhan recently?
My bad apparently thats fake news article i saw other day. Says he is still alive on wiki. 75 years old
Finally some reasoning. You can't buy extremists, but they will accept a weapon to kill his enemy
Because of Americas actions in the gulf war, sanctions on Iraq, and its support for Israel
He hated the west because someone stole his mentor's shoes? Or is there more?
