An Interview With Osama Bin Laden's Former African Mistress
2009-04-08


The author of six books published in eight countries, Kola Boof is not only Sudan's top selling novelist, but in 1996, was the mistress of Osama Bin Laden.....a fact that jeopardized her American citizenship four years ago, until Morocco's Prince Fabrizzio Ruspolli confirmed Boof's claim that she had been held against her will by Bin Laden at Ruspoli's estate for sexual purposes.

In her memoir, Diary of a Lost Girl, coming Feb. 1st in hardcover (0-9712019-8-6), Boof reveals a side of the terror chief that's never been explored before. In a telephone interview, I learned a few things that I never expected to find out...such as where he's been hiding.

#3  And she is apparently


Probably born on March 3 (exact date unknown)...definitely born as Naima Bint Harith,


http://www.nathanielturner.com/chronologykolaboof.htm

At a restaurant she meets Osama Bin Laden. He decides that he wants to have her as one of his "pets". He has his men bring her over to his table at the restaurant--he does not care that Naima is with a date already. He can make her life hell in Marrakech if she does not comply. He goes to visit her at her hotel. He takes her against her will. He continues to visit her. He goes back and forth to Sudan but he moves Naima to a suite at the La Maison Arabe and comes whenever he likes for four months. Naima is not allowed to go anywhere but to shop. Sometimes, he beats her, because she is not easily penetrated by him and doesn't want to have sex because of pain. When the police arrive they only tell him to beat her "more quietly". After four months of sexual experience with Bin Laden....Naima doesn't see him for two months straight. He informs her by phone that their fling is over. She is to move out of the suite--he wants to install another girl.

#2  Fabrizio Ruspoli actually appears to be a real person, a member of that family.

http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/travel-heres-some-we-didnt-do-earlier-1077196.html


The restaurant was closed on my next visit and now, some 20 years later, it has been beautifully renovated by Fabrizio Ruspoli. Fabrizio is an Italian prince - or if he isn't, he could be. In the hotel hall there hangs a portrait of his grandfather, Edmondo, outdoing any mere Gainsborough boy in the elegance of his ruffs and lace.

Ruspoli is, in any case, part of the expatriate landscape: his grandmother was a redoubtable figure in Tangier's highly competitive society, his aunt kept wolfhounds on her farm in the Ourika valley, and all the great restaurants nearby, such as Charles de Poso's Villa Rosa, seem to be run by his devoted friends.

La Maison Arabe has just 11 rooms and serves no meals, aside from breakfast and tea. It has no pool but instead boasts a succession of elegant, well- connected guests.

#1  Morocco's Prince Fabrizzio Ruspolli

This is a historical figure from the Battle of Lepanto. Of course, the article is from blacknews.com, which is a site I've never heard of.
