This is from 1993. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...inessman-who-recruited-mujahedin-1465715.html Has anyone here even heard of him since then?
Check recent Arab movie magazines.Man that's obscure. Asked a friend in intelligence, guess he died of Syphillis, in the late 90s. 4 Wives isn't super practical on the STD front.
Huh. I could have sworn he had died of syphillis, too. Guess it's just a common rumor-- you know, the whole Muhammad Ali effect. But yeah, he seems to be playing small and bit roles in some big Arab movies. I guess he has a cool schtick, being from his background and all.Check recent Arab movie magazines.![]()
In regards to syphilis, Assama uses condoms correctly way too much for that to ever be an issue for him.Huh. I could have sworn he had died of syphillis, too.

I believe that if he had lived 8 years later he would be one of the masterminds of the worst terror attack on US soil which kills 3000 people. The Mujahideen were a scary bunch, just look at how they are running Afghanistan right now.
That's... pretty specific. You wouldn't happen to try to plug a TL of yours or something?
Anyway, it sounds quite unlikely. There hasn't been terrorist attacks that size in Europe, where people say security is more lax, let alone in the US in the last twenty years. Why exactly do you think this particular character could pull one off?
He had ties with terror groups.
There is some way to go from "having ties to terror groups" to "masterminding the biggest terror attack in US history"'.
Whatever. I will explain it in my own TL.

Have you missed Calbears exellent TL about the war on terror?
Haven't read that one. Does it feature this Bin Laden guy as a terrorist leader?
