Hear from Osama bin Laden in his own words from a transcript on the PBS Frontline website from an interview in May 1998. From the bin Laden family background on Frontline, both the brother and father of Osama bin Laden have died in mysterious plane crashes in Texas:
Like his father in 1968, Salem died in a 1988 air crash…in Texas. He was flying a BAC 1-11 which had been bought in July 1977 by Prince Mohammed Ben Fahd. The plane’s flight plans had long been at the center of a number of investigations. According to one of the plane’s American pilots, it had been used in October 1980 during secret Paris meetings between US and Iranian emissaries. Nothing was ever proven, but Salem bin Laden’s accidental death revived some speculation that he might have been “eliminated” as an embarrassing witness. In fact, an inquiry was held to determine the exact circumstances of the accident. The conclusions were never divulged.
Is there some sort of Texas connection here too?
