Omar bin Laden, one of Osama’s 19 offspring, has been bringing his message to the media including the Today Show with Matt Lauer and CNN. The 26 year old dreadlocked bin Laden appears with his 52-year-old British wife expressing his wishes to become an “ambassador for peace” between Islam and the West. Good luck with that.  Omar, the fourth eldest of Osama bin Laden’s 19 children, lived with his father in Sudan, then moved with him to Afghanistan when Khartoum forced out the al-Qaida leader in 1996.
Omar says he trained in Afghanistan at an al-Qaida camp, but in 2000 he decided there must be another way and he left his father, returning to his homeland Saudi Arabia.
“I don’t want to be in that situation to just fight. I like to find another way, and this other way may be like we do now, talking,” he said in English. He suggested his father did not oppose his leaving — and Alsabah interjected that Omar was courageous in breaking away, but neither elaborated.
Omar doesn’t criticize his father and says Osama bin Laden is just trying to defend the Islamic world.
