His Dad was a wealthy businessman with closes ties to the Saudi Royal Family. He was raised as a devout Muslim and attended a prestigious school. He then went on to University where he studied Economics and Business Adminstration and it's thought he got a degree in Civil Engineering or Public Administration. He was also interested in religion and interpreted the Quaran, did lots of charity work and also wrote poetry.
The only troubled part of his childhood would be his parents divorcing, but I wouldn't suggest that was anything major as he was born the only son of his father's 10th wife.
Troubled childhood? Yeah, right.
I don't see why people feel sorry for him and are calling him a legend. He did wrong so he has now faced the consequences, just as anybody else would.
A troubled childhood does not excuse the actions of a person of sound mind.
Now i've only just found out about this and yes, i'm glad he is gone. However, bare in mind I have not read what happened as of yet, but if he was not resisting arrest/capture then he should have been put on trial as opposed to simply killed on sight (shoot to kill). I believe in innocent until proven guilty and that applies to everyone, including those who we most hate.
Secondly, where are the pictures of the body or the DNA tests? if anyone can point these out to me, i'd be most grateful because considering our records on telling the truth (the invasion of Iraq, Gulf of Tonkin incident) it gives me serious doubt especially as the body was dumped so early.
He deserved a trial if possible and then the death penalty if found guilty, we are not savages.Quote:

I believe his death was correct and just, anyone who commits these sorts of crimes do not deserve to live themself.
However people hsould not rejoice in death, it's not how we should act as individuals or as a nation. We are more that that and should prove it.
You can be glad that families of 9/11 victims have some justice now but you shouldnt rejoice in another humans downful.
