Your Real Terrorist is at Home

"...the apparent coldness and selfishness of mankind may be traced, in great measure, to a want of attention and a want of imagination." (Bate, 132)

My name is Osama Bin Laden. I am the man pictured in the image; a man that has been the subject of mass hatred in your country for more than a decade now. I am presently wanted dead or alive with a $25 million dollar reward put on my beloved head. The fact that I have been incognito for the past seven years and not been captured by the so called "most powerful nation in the world" shows that either your country is not as intelligent as it portrays to the rest of the world or that I am too clever to be caught by a country that would train "terrorist" to kill its own civilians. I believe it's a little of both.


Yes I am responsible for the September 11, 2001 attacks on your "cultural wasteland and moral sewer that [is] not worth living in and not fighting for" (D'Souza, 49). Your country disgust me; I cringe when hear "the United States of America," which is not so united since half the country wants to be in war and the other half chooses to go against their own leader and oppose war. It isn't so united in the way that half of the country supports the act of killing unborn babies that could grow up to be strong soldiers and the other half supports the birth of little hoodlums that are going to grow up spoiled and materialistic like the rest of their fellow Americans. Your men are shameful when they allow their women to walk in public with little to no clothing on. Your women are disgraceful and disrespectful when they feel they have the right to stand up to a man. Your country is so caught up in unnecessary things that they forget to teach their children about religion and moral values. The United States of America needs to fix its own problems before it tries to invade on other countries.


"...the U.S. itself is a leading terrorist state..." (D'Souza, 51)
Your country has its hands all over the world. Why? Why does your country have soldiers stationed all over the world? Why are there not Cuban soldiers or Iran soldiers stationed on United States' soil? Your country has a double standard on the rest of the world. You feel that you can do certain things like set up military bases in other countries, but if another country even posed the idea of stationing soldiers in your country, the idea would be shut down immediately. Why does your country feel like it is better than all the rest? "America has terrorized others in the past and therefore should not be surprised when it is terrorized in return" (D'Souza, 50). Does Guantanamo Bay, Hiroshima and Nagasaki ring a bell? Look at the image and imagine how many lives are perishing in the fires of your atomic bomb. Then imagine how you would feel if 20,000 tons of TNT was dropped in your backyard. Before you go writing me and other Al Qaeda members off as being "terrorist" remember how inhumane your country has been.
