The word Koran does not appear in this article.

Surely that can't be reasonable. JoshNarins (talk) 22:36, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, then add it in instead of complaining about it. Illegitimate Barrister 07:09, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No sense

This line makes no sense, unless he also hates his own people [Arabs are a Semetic people dont forget]... "Bin Laden was profoundly anti-Semitic, and delivered many warnings against alleged Jewish conspiracies" 107.222.205.242 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 01:25, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The word "anti-Semitic" in that context refers to Jews. Also, "Arabs" weren't Bin Laden's people. In his ideology, "Muslims" were his people. Illegitimate Barrister 07:09, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20111111191820/https://www.brookings.edu/articles/2008/1130_india_terrorism_riedel.aspx to http://www.brookings.edu/articles/2008/1130_india_terrorism_riedel.aspx
Corrected formatting/usage for http://www.theguardian.com/world/2002/nov/24/theobserver

Jews, Christians and Shia Muslims section

In this section there are a lot of quotes that I don't know their origins. who said them? All of sources there are offline.. Some work needs to be done. I will try to fix that when I am free. if anyone thinks that this version is better then reply here.--SharabSalam (talk) 18:49, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This section also does not talk about bin Laden's views on Christians at all and should therefore be renamed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Margretarson (talk • contribs) 17:38, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
