Osama Bin Laden’s life started on March 10, 1957, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Osama’s life started out great. He was very wealthy and privileged growing up. He was also a demure boy while he was young. Bin Laden was tall for his age and had an athletic physique. Osama befriended Abdul Aziz, a lifelong friend, on a trip into the desert. He also was befriended and influenced by Abdullah Azzam, who influenced his beliefs later in life, when he was in school. While he was young, Bin Laden spent as much time as he could with his father. Although he was close with his father, Osama was sent to live with his mother in Tabuk. Osama wasn’t happy in Tabuk, so he asked to move back to Jidda. Even though his request was granted, Osama still wasn’t happy in…
However, more than a dozen nationals from these countries have shown up repeatedly in terror attacks from coast-to-coast including San Bernadino, Boston, Orlando, and New York. Osama bin Laden was a Saudi citizen, and his top deputies, including the current leader of al-Qaeda, Ayman al-Zawahiri, were Egyptian.…
The assassination of Osama Bin Laden occurred due to cultural reason; however, it was justified. Osama Bin Laden discriminated against americans, he caused one of the most horrific terrorist attack in american history which is 911 and he killed up to 2977 people in one day. Critics, however, some may argue that the assassination was unjustified, due to the Persian Gulf war also known as Operation Desert Shield where american troops invaded Saudi Arabia and killed over a 1000 civilians and injured even more this is a valid reason why Osama Bin Laden would have a vendetta against the american nation he said “just like you kill us, we will kill you”(Mary Cummings2).The assassination of Osama Bin Laden occurred on May 2, 2011 over ballistic trauma…
In conclusion, Osama bin Laden’s communication with several audiences changed over time. His ability to convey a strategic vision within his organization was greatly decreased following 9/11. His capacity to promote his message to affiliate organization also decreased after the attacks. In fact, only his ability to spread his vision of terror to the world improved following the September 11, 2001…
Osama bin Laden had quite a difficult upbringing as a child. ‘‘The father had very dominating personality. He insisted to keep all his children in one premises. He had a tough discipline and observed all the children with strict religious and social code. He maintained a special daily program and obliged his children to follow’’. Bin Laden’s father was very strict on him as a young boy. It was said that Bin Laden’s father treated them as ‘’big men’’ and expected them to act as such. I believe this shaped the personality and man that bin Laden grew into. (Frontline; pbs.org)…
On 9/11 many things changed, and our society was the main thing. Many of our everyday lives were changed because of one event that affected millions. Osama bin Laden did not just change the US with new types of security, he unified our country and made us realize how important staying together as a country was. His objective was to destroy the United States spiritually, physically and economically , but it had the opposite effect in some of those categories. He definitely underestimated the American spirit. Economically, we still haven’t recovered completely, no one has, but physically and spiritually we, as a country, came back stronger than ever, with renewed patriotism. One bad effect from the 9/11 attacks were stereotyping. Many people have stereotyped all muslims as terrorist and this is one of the most long lasting effects. Many muslims have to go through everyday life with being called cruel names like terrorist, when they have nothing to with the attacks on September 11th. The real people to blame are the ones involved with Al-Qaida and their leader, Osama bin Laden. Not only was there a bad effect on the US, but he presented his own religion to uneducated people, as religion filled with hate, when this is not the case. In conclusion, Osama bin Laden, in the end, didn’t only contribute something bad to our society, but he contributed something bad to his own society…
have you ever wondered the difference between a murder and an assassination? Well i’ll tell you an assassination is the act of killing someone,a murder is a the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another. Like the assassination of JFK his assassination was unjust because he was the youngest men to reach the white house via the electoral college,his ability to demonstrate that a Roman Catholic could win to be the president of the united states.However,some believed he was the worst president in the century.…
Islam is a very unique and controversial religion in modern society because of terrorism and many other reasons. On September 11th, 2001 Osama Bin Laden lead on of the most vicious acts of terrorism America has ever seen. Bin Laden justified his actions in a letter to America stating “The US attacked us in Somalia; The US supported the Russian atrocities against us in Chechnya, the Indian oppression against us in Kashmir, and the Jewish aggression against us in Lebanon.” This shows that Bin Laden and his group believe the US is to blame for all the wrongdoings to their country. It also shows they believe in the eye for an eye philosophy which directly contradicts The Quran “The judge can order punishments by legal ordinance according to human…
I think that the bombing by the United States was justified because the bomb saved lives and the Japanese cheap shot the U.S. at Pearl Harbor. For starters, the bomb saved lives. The bomb dropped by the Americans on the Japanese, saved many more American and Japanese lives. The Japanese said that they would never quit, as it was the dishonorable thing to do. If the Americans were to have tried to capture Japan, the Japanese citizens were prepared to commit seppoku. If the Americans were to have tried by force, many Americans would be wounded in the attempt. Next, the Americans were not in the wrong for bombing the Japanese because the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor when the Americans were not in the war. This justified the Americans act because…
Kennedy's assassination was just like Pearl Harbor and 9-11 a hate crime. It, just like 9-11, was carried out by people who carefully plotted to make a point by killing innocent people. Also it made an impact of people's points of view on safety issues. Kennedy was riding in a convertible car; the President would never be allowed to do that in these times. Thought the lessons learned and type of crime were the same; the loss of life was not. Though it was one very great person, it was only one person who was killed in the Kennedy assassination, Kennedy. 9-11's death count was nearly 5,000. Also, it was not terrorists who committed the assassination; it was one man, Lee Harvey…
The first cause on why his assassination was unjust for him being a Civil Rights leader. Martin Luther King Jr. won a Nobel Piece in 1964 for his leadership and changing America (Nobel Prize 1). In the movie Selma I gathered that Martin Luther King Jr. was a civil rights leader for African Americans. When the peaceful protestors walked across the bridge in Selma, Alabama a group of white activist started to throw gas bombs, spray people with water hoses, and attacked them with dogs. When he won his…
In order to fully understand the true significance of the death of Osama Bin Laden, one must understand who he was and what he did. Osama Bin Laden was born in 1957 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. He was the seventh of fifty children. He was briefly raised by a strict father, who ordered his children to become self sufficient adults at a young age. He would also enforce very stern religious rules, that kept each of his children devoutly practicing the muslim religion. Osama’s mother soon divorced from his father, causing Osama to move far away from his dad. He grew up to be a very smart and wise person. When the soviets…
The Reign of Terror was a moment in french history that began in 1793 and ended a year later in 1794. The Reign of Terror was just like how its name sounded; terrifying. Robespierre began the reign of terror the moment the french king, Louis XIV, was guillotined. He claimed that the only way to go through with the french revolution was to rid France of all their enemies and potential threats by beheading them at the guillotine. People may wonder if the Reign of Terror was even justifiable, stating that the French Revolution would have gone through successfully without it, but in all actuality the Reign of Terror was justified by France’s internal and external conflicts along with newer humane methods of ending people’s lives.…
Kennedy’s assassination was unjust because he had been a good president and most people thought that too but he had some haters and one of those haters ended up assassinating him.So in general all of my claims(He was a good president,He supported equal rights,and it was unfair that he got assassinated).It is important because it was a what John F. Kennedy was and why it was unfair that he got assassinated because most people loved him as their president.John F. Kennedy’s assassination on November 22,1963 will always be remembered as the day where one of America’s favorite president got…
Al-Qaeda confirmed the death on May 6 with posts made on militant websites, vowing to avenge the killing.[7] Other Pakistani militant groups, including the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan, also vowed retaliation against the U.S. and against Pakistan for not preventing the operation.[8] Bin Laden's killing was generally favorably received by U.S. public opinion;[9][10] was welcomed by the United Nations, NATO, the European Union, and a large number of governments;[11] but was condemned by some, including Fidel Castro of Cuba[12] and Ismail Haniyeh, the head of theHamas administration of the Gaza Strip.[13] Legal and ethical aspects of the killing, such as his not being taken alive despite being unarmed, were questioned by others, including Amnesty International.[14] Also controversial was the decision to not release any photographic or DNA evidence of bin Laden's death to the public.[15]…
