    Is it true that in the 1990s the United States used Osama bin Laden’s people to fight in Azerbaijan, Bosnia and Kosovo?

    Question #99306. Asked by author. (Sep 09 08 7:04 PM)

    Some believe this claim, author. Here is an excerpt from an expose that lends credence to your theory:

    The United States has long been alarmed by the presence in Bosnia of hundreds of Arab-born Muslim fundamentalists who first traveled there in the 1990´s to fight for the nation’s predominantly Muslim population during the civil war. Many went there at the direction of Osama bin Laden, who apparently saw the opportunity for a Jihad defending Muslims against Serb and Croat Christians.

    Osama Bin Laden directly aided the Bosnian Muslims, both financially (weapons procurement) and with training. In addition, that same "aid" was extended to the separatist Albanians of Kosovo and Macedonia. Ironically, the US found Bin Laden and his supporters "convenient" allies when dealing with Bosnian Muslims and Kosovo Albanians, again in another so-called struggle for "freedom".

    It is worth reading the entire chronology. Truth or fiction? I do not know.
