DESCRIPTION
The man who has struck terror in the hearts of Americans, the man who has dared to take on the might of the greatest super power, remains a mystery and an enigma for the world today! Who is this Osama Bin Laden? Osama Bin Laden is a dissident Saudi businessman who has amassed a fortune in oil and construction business with his family fortune estimated at $5 billion of which he has access to an estimated $300 million. A graduate of Riyadh University's management economics department, he sees himself as a model businessman. But since last one decade or so his products have been terrorists around the globe. He enjoys the unenviable position of being hated by one part of the world and at the same time being worshipped by another part. Osama is one who has declared jihad - a holy war - on America! This book is an expose of the background and history of Osama Bin Laden, his family and fortunes, his thinking and ideology and what led to it - and above all about his extensive network Al-Qaeda (the base) that's spread over 35 countries. The exhaustive and comprehensive research is supported by the most influential sources, including CIA and FBI records, international coverage and media reports.
