My favorite bin Laden (major babeage alert)

[Bucky]

Damn! (But I'll bet she won't be greeting any martyrs in heaven)



Wafah Dufour, Osama bin Laden's niece, is seen in an undated publicity photo.

(Reuters) -
Osama bin Laden's niece, an aspiring singer who posed for a sexy photo shoot in a men's magazine last year, has signed up for a reality television show about her life and her as yet unfulfilled "quest for stardom."

Wafah Dufour Bin Ladin, whose mother was married to the al Qaeda leader's half brother, was born in California but lived in Saudi Arabia from the age of three to 10.

"I understand that when people hear my last name, they have preconceived notions, but I was born an American and I love my country," Dufour said in a statement from ReganMedia announcing the deal to develop a reality TV series.

Dufour has dropped the "Bin Ladin" -- a different spelling of the Arabic name from that used by Osama bin Laden -- and now goes by the name Wafah Dufour.

3. How sad. Every time I look at her I worry about ruining my keyboard

She's gorgeous. Why bash her over her uncle? We accept Ron Reagan Jr, don't we? Republicans accept that Christian Baldwin brother? No one holds anything against the Night Rider just because his evil twin brother looks like David Hasselhoff! How's this any different?

[fun n serious]

4. She's beautiful

She does have some of the same features Osama Bin Laden has. I can tell they're related. She's gorgeous tho. I'm guessing she's not a Muslim. This must be a complete blow to Osama Bin Laden. LOL.

5. Not all Muslims believe...

women have to be covered from head to toe. There are many Muslim countries where women dress pretty much exactly like they do here in the US.

[fun n serious]

6. Oh Really?

I thought it was against Islam for a woman to be uncovered. Doesn't the quran state they should be covered except for their hands and face?

7. It's like any other religion, in that there are various levels...

...of observation.

Example: Mormons, The Amish and Hasidic Jews adopt a dress code which is more of a literal interpretation of the Bible's dress code, while a majority of Christians don't observe faith-based clothing edicts.

8. Ahhh

Ok, that makes sense. Like the bible saying not to eat pork but all christians I know do.

11. Her father disowned her because she split...

after her parents divorced to avoid an arranged marriage and some other Arab stuff.

Her mother's French Swiss, hence the Dufour name she took to get away from the bin Laden stigma.

Dunno if she's got what it takes to make it, but I was a bit taken aback by the slamming she got in that other thread.
