Some will say this belongs in ASB, but just a few years ago some would have said September 11 belongs in ASB. Let us say after the 1993 WTC bombing failed to bring down the towers, Osama changed his tactic instead of toppling buildings, he was now going to topple the infidels puppet's in the Arab countries. After years of planning, and training he finally sets a date for the operation.
The morning of July 12, 1998 the west awakens to shocking and horrible news 12 Middle Eastern/Arab governments were overthrown in the night by al-Queda operatives. The governments of the west seemed baffled, the people uncertain of what the future held. The New York Stockmarket was at a new low. The world watched trying to grasp what was happening. A tall man dressed in white with a long graying beard finally addressed selected news agencies of the world. It was clear beyond a shadow of a doubt this man was Osama bin Laden. After an hour of talking of how what had transpired was the will of Allah, bin Laden gave the west a list of demands in order to live in peace and trade with the Caliph of Arabia.
The demands included but were not limited to:
-Withdrawal of all non Arabian troops from the Caliph
-Cease supporting Israel (if the west wanted to evacuate the civilians that was fine, but the leaders must face trial)
-The turnover of western and Russian leaders to face trial for crimes against Islam. Those he mentioned included George H.W. Bush, John Major, Mikhail Gorbachev, Norman Schwarzkopft, Colin Powell, and others.
-Compensation for the Muslims killed in the Gulf War, the Arab-Israeli wars and the Soviet-Afghan War.
He gave the west, notably the United States, thirty days to meet his demands or suffer the consequences. Western military officials scrambled to draw up invasion plans of the caliph, while moderate Muslims and moderate Islamic countries like Turkey and Indonesia warned the United States and the west not to attack Mecca and Medina.
In the days that followed Al jazera began showing al Queda released tapes of their training, and the executions of the former Arabian leadership, the most commonly run reels being the deaths of Saddam Hussein by firing squad and the hanging of Gaddafi in Tripoli.
Anti-war protests started as small gatherings in major cities, but grew in size as the reality began to sit in. The Americans closed their military bases in Saudi Arabia, reopening the base in Israel, an act which greatly angered bin Laden who accused the US of warmongering.
The western armies prepared for the largest scaled war since the Second World War against the backdrop of a bitter antiwar protest, and the fear of a wave of terrorist cells wreaking havoc in western cities.
