Getting lost in the footsteps of Bin Laden
http://www.cmfr-phil.org/story7.htm
CNN international correspondent Christiane Amanpour’s much-heralded
documentary, “In the Footsteps of bin Laden,” sought to show the
world the social forces that shaped the life of the “most feared
terrorist of our time.” This two-hour documentary consisted of
interviews with people who had met Osama bin Laden at least once in
their lives. It also included news clips of Osama and the various
bombings he or his group allegedly committed.
One could easily be lost by the many personalities involved and be
confused by the strange-sounding Arab names that ring unfamiliar to
the Christian audience. One is supposed to think it unusual for
young Arabs to spend time in the desert–the alleged training ground
for would-be terrorists.
Or, one is supposed to be impressed by exotic concepts like the
Sahwa or the Islamic Awakening which, the documentary implied,
turned many Muslims suddenly into holy war freaks. This Sahwa was
largely due to people like Syed Qutb (1906-1966), who, according to
Amanpour, “inspired jihadists” as he “justified holy war that
attacks enemies first.” Qutb, one of the greatest Muslim political
thinkers of the 20th century, was framed as the patron saint of
Islamic terrorists.
The documentary pictures Osama as popular and even revered in the
Muslim world. Yet, Osama’s brothers and sons, who spent some time
“training” in the desert, did not follow him to Afghanistan. Neither
did childhood friends like Khalid Batarfi nor his university
schoolmates like Jamal Khalifa. Strangely, even his co-mujaheedin
(freedom fighters) in Afghanistan like Huteifa Azzam, the son of
Osama’s mentor in Afghanistan, and Abdullah Anas did not become
al-Qaeda members.
Instead, his followers included a US citizen and member of the US
Special Forces in Fort Bragg and a Moroccan couple living in Belgium
who fell in love with Osama’s image on TV.
In the chapter called “The Awakening, 1975-79,” there was absolutely
nothing that made Osama’s experience different from that of millions
of Muslims of his generation.
The chapter “The Holy Warrior” is about the Afghani fight against
Russia. Here, the complete absence of America’s role in Afghanistan
is noticeable. Everybody knows that the US trained and armed the
Muslim fighters, especially the Taliban, against the Russians. These
facts were well-documented by Western media.
Viewers get the impression that Osama bin Laden lives in his
mountain lair and people come to him to propose potential terrorist
targets. Sheikh Osama gives his blessings and when the event occurs,
he faces the cameras and claims the deed.
Osama denied knowing Ramzi Youssef but the documentary insisted on
linking them through an imam in the US.
In the “Battle of Torra Borra,” the US used its biggest and most
advanced bombs and missiles. But the documentary failed to explain
why the US fielded only about 60 men on the ground, despite demands
by the officers for more, to hunt down the world’s “most dangerous
man.” So Osama escaped. And the hunt and the drama go on.
