Osama Bin Laden Serving as Observer in Taliban Reconnaissance Squad
From Jihad UnspunThe chief of Al-Qaida, Osama Bin Mohammad Bin Laden, has confronted American forces many times inside Afghanistan says a Taliban spokesman. Speaking to Ausaf sources in Khost, Taliban spokesman Mohammad Saif ul Adil has said that Osama Bin Laden and Ayman Al Zawahiri are both in Afghanistan and not Pakistan as some officials claim. He went on to say that Osama Bin Laden has confronted Americans numerous times but the Americans did not recognize him. In one interesting incident, Osama Bin Laden stayed very close to an American outpost for 15 days to observe its activities and Mujahideen later destroyed that base in a successful operation. He also said that Mullah Omar is in Afghanistan but is not in contact with Osama bin Laden as of now. Posted by: Mike Sylwester 2004-03-01 |
