2 Pages 453 Words


Introduction
I don’t agree with the Muslim extremist leader Usuma Bin Laden but in order to comprehend our nation’s current state, we must realize why such a person would commit such heinous crimes against humanity to please his leader, himself, and his followers. In order to understand his ideals we look behind so-called enemy lines to see why he does this. I will inform the class how he influences his people, and why the United States disagrees.
