liked retro-games and anime

9-11 mastermind and nominal Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was killed in May 2011 during a raid on his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. A massive amount of intelligence was seized during the raid, including hundreds of thousands of files stored on Bin Laden's hard drive. Today, the CIA released nearly 470,000 of those files, and it turns out that not only was he the world's most infamous terrorist, he also had a thing for retro-gaming and anime.

The archive has been conveniently divided into four categories—audio, documents, images, and video—but is nonetheless a massive thing to dig through. But if you're willing, it's all there: Images of everything from Pac-Man to Perestroika Girls, including both title and gameplay screens.


Thought anime was haram Emir?

The real question is, which girl did he consider best girl?

Asuka, or Rei?

Let's not forget while Osama could not be located, there was another terrorist branded as 9/11 mastermind

Khaleid Sheikh Mohammed.

Only in the highly democratic and law abiding, judicially upright society of America, can you assassinate someone as mastermind of a crime, while trying another for the same crime...

Moreover, only such a just society would see the need to summarily execute rather than extract intel for other terror plots..

There is a serious dissonance of the cognitive in anything 9/11 related.

Now that's some Emir approved entertainment right there !

'Humanizing' him in this case tantamount to ridiculing his ideals and that of his comrades,sympathizers and followers in an attempt to highlight irony and hypocrisy and also the fact that our common humanity trumps all.

Great move.

Guaranteed that 90% of those files CIA created themselves.

Every religious nut is like this Bro. They preach one thing and privately practice another.

Bin Laden was probably stuffing his face with bacon every morning at breakfast claiming it's halal in times of war.

If he was a man, he would know what to play with in a cave...

And it wouldn't matter if he went blind in a dark cave!
