Question 1

Bin Laden CNN

Answer 1

‘The United States, he said that CNN interview, “has committed acts that are extremely unjust, hideous and criminal” by supporting Israel and imposing sanctions on Iraq. But it is the presence of US troops in Saudi Arabia, the land of Mecca and Medina, “the holiest place of the Muslims,” that most outrages Bin Laden- this, hey says, is why he has declared a jihad on the US’ (Bergen, P 1998 “Holy Warrior”)
