OMAR BIN LADEN WARNS HIS FATHER'S SUCCESSORS WORSE

Dear readers, just so you know, I am still struggling with Blogspot to get images in here and apologize. Every time I try to put up even one photo to illustrate, I am not allowed to do so. Here I had intended to post a lovely photo or Omar bin Laden, 28, in black leather and long long dreadlocks with his beautiful English wife, also in leathers, Jane Felix-Browne, a 51-year-old grandmother and parish councilor from Cheshire. So just imagine if you can please.

"Last November, the son of Al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Ladenmar, told a British magazine that he would like to promote peace and work for the United Nations.

“I do not believe that I would be a good politician ~ I have a habit of speaking the truth, even when it does not serve me well. But I would like to be in a position to promote peace. I believe that the United Nations would be ideal for me,” said Omar Bin-Laden."

Osama bin Laden's son has a

frightening warning about his father's successors.

From Omar bin Laden's up-close look at the next generation of mujahideen and training camps he says the worst may lie ahead, that if his father is killed America may face a broader and more violent enemy, with nothing to keep them in check.

"From what I knew of my father and the people around him I believe he is the most kind among them, because some are much, much worse,"

Omar bin Laden, who was raised in the midst of his father's fighters, told ABC News in an exclusive interview.

"Their mentality wants to make more violence, to create more problems."

Omar has turned his back on his father's philosophy, a remarkable step for a man in an Arab culture where it is a sin to disobey his father and taboo to openly criticize him. It was doubly significant for Omar bin Laden because his father had picked him to succeed him as the leader of jihad.

The son spoke out again recently after hearing his father in an audio tape praise the attempt by the so-called "underwear bomber"to blow up a jetliner over Detroit on Christmas Day.

"Attacking peaceful people is not being fair, it is unacceptable. If you have a problem with armies or governments you should fight those people. This is what I find unacceptable in my father's way. My father should find some letter to send to all of these people, at least to tell them they shouldn't attack the civilians," Omar told ABC News.

Omar is a clearly conflicted peacenik, bearing some signs of a loyal son and trying to explain his father's hatred. When asked whether there is anything his father likes about the United States, Omar says "their weapons," and nothing else.

The son of Osama, however, had praise for the U.S. saying, "They don't care what is your race, what is your skin, where you come from, this is very good."

And despite the $25 million bounty on his father's head and the ever-searching drones, Omar is confident that his father won't be caught and that no Afghan will turn him in.

"It's been 30 years now since he started fighting there. Who could catch him? No one.... This is the country that whoever gets in is stuck, be it the armies or the mujahideen," he said. Omar says even he does not know where his father is.

Osama Bin Laden's Sons Are 'Peaceful'

Although polls like the Pew Attitudes survey show steadily declining support for bin Laden in the Arab and Muslim world, Omar says he still hears vocal, if subtle endorsements.

"Nobody dares to say, 'I follow your father' in public. But I find it very often and everywhere, people say 'We like your father. Your father is a hero.'"

What's not clear is whether Osama bin Laden's children follow him. Despite reports that some of Omar's brothers fought and died in Afghanistan, Omar says the sons of Osama are "peaceful," with no interest in their father's war.

For years the whereabouts of his family were unknown, until headlines late last year suggested the family, minus Osama, had moved from Afghanistan to neighboring Iran. As Omar tells it, up to 40 members of the bin Laden family, wives and children, used fake identity documents to cross the border along with hundreds of thousands of people fleeing the U.S. invasion. They now live in a comfortable Tehran compound, but under house arrest.

"The Iranian government has showed very good caring to my brothers and sisters. The only mistake is that until now they haven't been released," said Omar, describing an upper crust lifestyle: swimming pool, tennis court, shopping trips, and horseback riding along the coast. The children have had no access to formal education, and every foot they set outside the home must be chaperoned by Iranian security forces.

In November, Omar's 17-year-old sister Imam escaped from Iranian custody and fled to the Saudi Embassy, where he says she is still living. Omar and Imam have spoken by phone, but Iran has so far refused to let her leave the country, and hasn't responded to requests from Omar and his mother to see her and verify her identity. Her lack of official identification documents is one reason Iran has said it won't give her an exit visa.

One younger brother, Bakr bin Laden, was allowed to leave in December. "[Iranian] President Ahmadinejad and his Minister of Foreign Affairs know they should do the right thing... they could release all of them if they wanted," said Omar. Most are being held against their will, though Omar's wife, Zaina Al Sabah, says seven or eight of them have said they want to stay in Iran.

Osama bin Laden raised his family of five wives (plus one marriage that was annulled) and more than a dozen children in a way meant to make them tough and ready for the rigors of war. He shunned air conditioning and refrigerators in the desert heat, banned toys and the kind of laughter that showed too many teeth, refused to wince when his men used Omar's puppies as the victims in chemical weapons tests. He would cane his children for the slightest misbehavior, at times hitting them so hard the stick would break.

OK I lied. Here I must interject. This man was not as most Muslim males are towards their families. He was harsh and cruel to his family. I must remind you that the Islam he follows is NOT the Islam most Muslims have lived under for the past thousand plus years. This is the relatively new bastardized version of Islam created by the Saudis and British Illuminati in Arabia to splinter the strength of true Islam from the core ~ the family.

This "divide and conquer" tactic of course was instilled by British Illuminati infiltrators. This is where the hatred of women originates. The Taliban is another splinter group, also being Wahhabi and supported largely by Saudi Arabia. Most Muslim parents are no different in training their young than any other culture.

Today, Omar shrugs off the notion that his father had a cruel streak. He sees the spartan treatment as part of Osama's world view. In his book "Growing Up Bin Laden," Omar notes the change in his father when he lands back in Afghanistan amid the violence of war and begins a rugged trip to a complex of barren caves in the Tora Bora mountains.

"I looked at my father. He did not seem to mind the trying conditions, but seemed exhilarated by them," Omar wrote. He added with a grudging admiration, "No matter what, my father was a tough man."

In Omar's book, his father is infuriated with the presence of American troops in Saudi Arabia, arriving to protect against an attack by Saddam Hussein in the first Gulf War. (Omar says his father disliked the secular Saddam, and that there was "no contact, no connection" between the men.)

This is very true. There was enmity between the two men; this fact was withheld from the world after 911 because such ignorance would make it easier to move from one country to another in the quest for control of the Middle East. When this was figured out once the Holocaust of Iraq began, it was too late to educate an apathetic public to be outraged at such manipulation.

In August 1996 Bin Laden declared war on America from his Afghan cave, citing the fact that U.S. forces were still in the Persian Gulf.

His father's pitch to the incoming mejuhadeen was different, focused on Arab discontent over the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, an issue with broader appeal. They came in droves, a new generation of men seeking jihad, or holy war, against the infidels of the West. An extremely large number have been young men from Saudi Arabia.

Omar describes how during meetings of mujahideen in Kandahar, leaders would play videos of perceived Israeli atrocities, the demolition of homes and the killing of civilians. Men would leave the meeting raging to fight.

Between Israel and America, Osama saw America as an easier target.

"He thinks America is weaker than Israel. America is easier to get attacked, with its huge cities," Omar said. "He sees America is the main power, but in fact is weak in certain ways."

Omar believes most Al Qaeda fighters can be turned, and that efforts like terrorist rehabilitation programs in Saudi Arabia do work.

Considering a great deal of funding comes from Arabia,Ah the serpentine twists and turns of the Saudi mind!)

The problem, as he sees it, is that their home countries are reluctant to take them back. "The jihadis, as I know them, want to return to their country and they're afraid because they know they are going to be killed or poisoned or imprisoned, so they stay with my father," he said.

When Omar broke with his father and left Afghanistan before the Sept. 11 attacks, he sought to reclaim a life he never had. His family is trying to get access their inherited Bin Laden wealth, but Omar says the money is "stuck," held by governments in Sudan and Saudi Arabia.

Omar says his dream in life is to reunite his family and succeed as a businessman. Being the son of Osama has made both a challenge, and left him expressing a deep discomfort. "I am a peaceful man, but I don't have peace," he said.

I watched a special on Omar and Jane a few months ago and the story of their love is just beautiful. He is the most romantic and considerate of husbands and their relationship seems to be one any woman would dream of. He is a soft spoken intelligent man who thinks his words over before speaking with his slight Arabic accent. A son more unlike his father is almost impossible to imagine.
