Prince Turki: Osama Will “Ace” The World
2002-10-08
Source: Daily Islam, Translated by Jihad Unspun
Former head of Saudi Intelligence Prince Turki Al Faisal says that Osama is alive and that he will “ace” the world in an astonishing manner. On Sunday, while giving an interview to the Arabic Newspaper Akhbar-ul-Sharq Alaust published in London, the former official said that from the personal reports he has received, he is confident that Osama bin Ladin is alive. He went on to say that Osama would surprise the world with his sudden appearance and that even though US has done a lot of damage Osama’s Al-Qaida organization, there are still approximately five thousand active Al-Qaida operatives in the world. The newspaper's commentary that surrounded this interview reported that many Taliban government officers and peers inside Afghanistan believe that Taliban Leader Mullah Omar and Osama bin Laden are still both alive.
I haven't seen anything to even suggest that Mullah Omar is toes up, though I have seen enough to suspect that Binny is busy decomposing. It's nice to see that the Soddies are on our side, though, isn't it? Prince Turki makes a fine Friend and Ally®. I am wondering why this sudden spate of "proof" of Binny's existence...? Could it be that he has to be alive for checks to clear?

#1  Still would love to know why Turki was pensioned last summer. Something to do with his apparent close attention to Osama? Rather his close ties to the CIA? Or just another palace contretemps?
