First wife and son bare secrets of Osama bin Laden in book
After years of hiding and social ostracisation, the wife and son of al- Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden have come out with a no-holds-barred book that reveals quite candidly the harsh life the family led under the gaze and zealous Islamic authority of the terror kingpin.
According to the New York Post, Osama bin Laden's first wife, Najwa and her son Omar, in the forthcoming book titled Growing Up bin Laden, reveal a world where women are never allowed outside the house, 12-year-old daughters are married off to 30-year-old al-Qaeda fighters, pet dogs are used for target practice and the biggest household fight is over whether Islam allows refrigerators.
Najwa, who remains married to the "monster", but now lives apart from him in an undisclosed Middle Eastern location, with the fourth son of her 11 children, Omar.
She neither defends nor lashes out at Osama, as she says that terrorism is what he does for a living, and that all she needs to do is worry about keeping his house in order.
