BIN LADEN DENIES INVOLVEMENT IN SEPTEMBER 11 AND ASKS U.S. TO “LIVE AND LET LIVE”
BIN LADEN
ISLAMABAD, November 10 (IslamOnline & News Agencies) ?
Osama bin Laden, the man whom the U.S. considers the “most wanted” man in the world, gave his first interview since the September 11 attacks today and asked the U.S. - currently engaged in massive military attacks on Afghanistan - to “live and let live,” a simple formula he says even a child can understand.
Bin Laden also went on to deny responsibility for the September 11 attacks.
In a special interview for the Pakistani daily newspaper, The Dawn, bin Laden spoke to Hamid Mir, editor of Pakistani daily, Ausaf, at an undisclosed location near Kabul.
Mir was taken, blindfolded, in a jeep from Kabul on the night of November 7 to a place he says was extremely cold and where one could hear the sound of anti-aircraft guns firing away.
After some time, bin Laden arrived with about a dozen bodyguards and his right-hand man, Ayman Al-Zawahiri.
The interview constituted the first one given by bin Laden to any journalist since the attacks on New York and Washington.
Responding to a question on how killing is justified in the light of Islamic teachings, bin Laden said, “if an enemy occupies a Muslim territory and uses common people as human shield, then it is permitted to attack that enemy.”
“For instance, if bandits barge into a home and hold a child hostage,” he said, “then the child's father can attack the bandits and in that attack.” Bin Laden added that the U.S. and its allies had massacred Muslims in Palestine, Chechnya, Kashmir and Iraq and that the Muslims have the right to attack America in reprisal.
“Islamic Shari’ah [law] says Muslims should not live in the land of the infidel [unbeliever] for long.
The September 11 attacks were not targeted at women and children. The real targets were America's icons of military and economic power,” said bin Laden.
Bin Laden further explained, “The Holy Prophet [Mohammad, peace be upon him] was against killing women and children.
When he saw a dead woman during a war, he asked, ‘Why was she killed?’ ”
Mir stated to MSNBC earlier this morning that bin Laden denied being responsible for the September 11 attacks and said that the 19 men the U.S. has declared as hijackers and perpetrators of the attacks were nothing more than passengers.
The Saudi dissident reminded the American people that they pay taxes to their government, elect their president, and that their government manufactures arms and gives them to Israel, which uses them to massacre Palestinians.
“The American Congress endorses all government measures and this proves that the entire America is responsible for the atrocities perpetrated against Muslims.
The entire America, because they elect the Congress.” Bin Laden asked the American people put pressure on their government to give up anti-Muslim policies, saying that, “the American people had risen against their government's war in Vietnam.
They must do the same today.”
“We are carrying on the mission of our Prophet Mohammad [peace be upon him],” said bin Laden.
“The mission is to spread the word of God, not to indulge [in] massacring people.
We ourselves are the target of killings, destruction and atrocities.
We are only defending ourselves.” The Saudi exile rejected fatwas (religious edicts) saying that his views and beliefs have nothing to do with Islam.
“History is full of such Ulema [scholars] who justify Riba [usury], who justify the occupation of Palestine by the Jews, who justify the presence of American troops around Harmain Sharifain [Saudi Arabian cities of Mecca and Medina].
These people support the infidels for their personal gain.”
In his interview, bin Laden declared that if the United States used chemical or nuclear weapons against him, then he may also respond with chemical and nuclear weapons.
“We have the weapons as deterrent,” he said, while refusing to say where he got the weapons.
The Pentagon blew off bin Laden’s claims of chemical and nuclear weapons, saying there is no evidence to support his claims.
Bin Laden praised the demonstrations that have been held in many European countries against American attacks on Afghanistan.
There “are many innocent and good-hearted people in the West,” he said.
“American media instigates them against Muslims.
However, some good-hearted people are protesting against American attacks because human nature abhors injustice.” “If America got out of Saudi Arabia and the Al-Aqsa mosque was liberated,” Mir asked bin Laden, “would you then present yourself for trial in some Muslim country?”
“Only Afghanistan is an Islamic country,” replied bin Laden.
“Pakistan follows the English law.
I don't consider Saudi Arabia an Islamic country.
If the Americans have charges against me, we too have a charge sheet against them.”
Bin Laden said that he has been disappointed by the stance taken by Pakistani military President General Pervez Musharraf.
He said the Pakistani government should not have surrendered to the demands of America.
“America does not have solid proof against us.
It just has some surmises.
It is unjust to start bombing on the basis of those surmises.”
“He [Musharraf] says that the majority is with him,” added bin Laden.
“I say the majority is against him.
Bush has used the word ‘crusade’.
This is a crusade declared by Bush.
It is no wisdom to barter off blood of Afghan brethren to improve Pakistan's economy.
He will be punished by the Pakistani people and Allah.” Mir wrote in The Dawn that “Osama bin Laden is a man at ease, even though he feels the Americans will eventually kill him.”
Mir said that he first met with bin Laden in 1997 and then again in 1998.
He added that when he saw bin Laden this time, he found him greatly changed.
“Previously he was very soft-spoken," the 36-year-old Mir told Agence-France Press (AFP).
"But now he speaks like an experienced orator.
He is very hard-hitting.
He was in high spirits.
He's very healthy and he laughs a lot.” The world's most hunted man, bin Laden feels certain the Americans will kill him sooner or later, according to Mir.
"He told me, 'I am ready to die.'
He said, 'I know that they can bomb this place also.
They are not aware that I am present here.
But they are dropping bombs blindly everywhere.
So I may get killed even with you.’ " "My cause will continue after my death," Mir quoted bin Laden as saying.
"They think they will solve this problem by killing me.
It's not easy to solve this problem.
This war has been spread all over the world."
