I for one are now convinced that the war against terror and the Muslim world is completely made up by the West and the only reason we can now find Muslims with intentions of hurting the West is because we have brought it upon ourselves by attacking them in the first place.

I knew an Arab man who told me that Al Qaeda openly held fund raising fairs in the Middle East (he was from Jordan).
Q: You said you want to defeat America on this land. Don't you think that the presence of al Qaeda on Afghanistan soil is costing the Afghan people a high price?
BIN LADEN: This is a partial point of view. When we came to Afghanistan to support the mujahedeen in 1979, against the Russians, the Saudi government asked me officially not to enter Afghanistan due to how close my family is to the Saudi leadership.
Q: So what you are saying is that this is a type of reciprocal treatment. They kill our innocents, so we kill their innocents.
BIN LADEN: So we kill their innocents, and I say it is permissible in law and intellectually, because those who spoke on this matter spoke from a juridical perspective.
We have one religion, one God, one book, one prophet, one nation. Our book teaches us to be brothers of a faith. All the Muslims are brothers. The name "al Qaeda" was established a long time ago by mere chance. The late Abu Ebeida El-Banashiri established the training camps for our mujahedeen against Russia's terrorism. We used to call the training camp al Qaeda [meaning "the base" in English]. And the name stayed. We speak about the conscience of the nation; we are the sons of the nation. We brothers in Islam from the Middle East, Philippines, Malaysia, India, Pakistan and as far as Mauritania.

You will always find people that want to spread their religion, but the so called "terrorists" never existed until we thought them into existance.

Have any of you actually watched the documentary? They presented the FACTS in a much better way than I have, it has left me with no doubt as to the "war on terror" we are fighting today.

Al Qaeda was a term first coined in 2001 by the US Prosecution, Bin Laden later went on to adopt this name due to the publicity and power the USA had given him by making out they were much more powerful than they actually ever were.

Islam has invaded Sicily, Cyprus, Spain, France, Italy, Switzerland, Malta, Sardinia, Armenia, Greece, Albania, Bulgaria, Serbia and Hungary.
Islam has repeatably and consistently attacked the West in its 1,300 year history. All we are seeing is the latest episode in a long line of violence between Islam and the West.

I have recently learned that Al Qaeda were never known by that name until the US prosecuters in the Jamal al-Fadi prosecution case went ahead in United States v. Osama bin Laden, No. S(7) 98 Cr. 1023 (S.D. N.Y.), Feb. 6, 2001 (transcript pp. 218–219, 233);
