Nice to see that he maintained some balance in his life

Taking some time away from causing worldwide mayhem:
ISLAMABAD—A widow of Osama bin Laden has told investigators that the Al Qaeda leader lived in five safe houses while on the run in Pakistan and fathered four children — two of them born in government hospitals.

These details of bin Laden’s life as a fugitive in Pakistan are contained in the interrogation report of Amal Ahmed Abdel-Fatah al-Sada, bin Laden’s Yemeni widow.

They raise fresh questions over how bin Laden was able to remain undetected for so long. Details from the report were first published by the Pakistani newspaper Dawn.

The Associated Press obtained a copy on Friday.

Al-Sada is currently in Pakistani custody, along with bin Laden’s two other wives and several children. They were arrested after the U.S raid that killed bin Laden in May in his final hideout in the town of Abbottabad.

What will it mean to grow up as his child? Will they feel a need to support his works? Will they grow up in opposition to him?

Does it weaken the bond that he has had so many children by so many wives?

I can't believe that if you are 1 of 20 children (out of 4-5 wives) that you can have very much personal emotional connection to your father. And the inter-wife feuding is bound to complicate personal relationships as well.

They'd only make it on Springer if they started marrying each other.

actualy all it takes is to have the willingness to fight at the sound of a bell preferably in spandex if you're overweight and prostitute attire otherwise.
