For the fourth straight day, the U-S bombed targets in Afghanistan. Senior defense officials say war planners are moving toward a new set of weaponry, including laser guided bombs to penetrate underground Taliban bunkers. Helicopter-borne special forces could be the next deployed. Back at home, NATO allies say they'll send surveillance planes to patrol U-S shores, freeing up American planes for the air campaign in Afghanistan. The nation's water system operators are asking Congress for five billion dollars to protect drinking water plants from terrorism. And computer experts warned another terrorist attack combined with a cyber-warfare would have terrifying results. President Bush unveiled his terrorism "most-wanted" list. It includes Osama bin Laden, his top two deputies, and several members of his Al Queda network. The White House is working with the TV show "America's Most Wanted" to broadcast the list in a special episode of the program. It's possible we won't be seeing any more unedited recordings from the Al Queda. The White House has asked American broadcasters to refrain from running the pre-recorded statements in their entirety because they may be sending hidden messages to terrorists abroad. |

Immediately following the September 11th attacks, fighter jets were called to the skies to protect cities all over the country- and New Hampshire's Air Natonal Guard has been refueling them.

Since September 11, the name bin Laden has been associated with one man: Osama. But the bin Laden's of Saudi Arabia are a large family with enormous wealth. They have personal and financial ties to Boston, New England and the rest of the US and the world. In the 1970s, Dr. Terry Bennett was a the bin Laden family physician in Saudi Arabia. From his office in Rochester, Dr Bennett gives us a glimpse of the bin Laden family. |

After a dispute with his landlord - Terry Bennett wound up homeless. -- sot Dr. Terry Bennett Rochester 00:11:43 On that night, that was a very dark night. All of my possessions were on the street and I was in jail. Hasan bin Laden - half brother of Osama bin Laden found out about this- came to jail and said I've had your stuff picked up, its in a villa that I've have, it's empty right now and were gonna help you get out of here right now, you're gonna come and you're gonna keep on taking care of us but you'll be in a new location, hows that. 12:06out -- track The bin Laden family knew of Dr. Bennett because he had treated members of the family along with other Saudi families. He doesn't know if he treated Osama bin Laden, but he does know what life might have been like for Osama or any of the bin Laden children as they grew up. -- Sot Dr. Terry Bennett 20:43 Imagine more money than you can imagine. Imagine an endless income. But you're in this place where there is nothing and you have to import everything. But your good at that because you have had to import everything to run your business so you build these extraodinary villas……. -- track Not only did the bin Laden's have incredible material wealth, Terry Bennett says the family also had incredible charisma. -- sot 14:52 these guys fill rooms I mean, I describe them as filling the room- they do, huge personalities, big smiles full of themselves, full of expltive deleted- great guys. 15:02OUT -- butt bite 14:35This is a big family, full of movers and shakers, richer than you can imagine and more generous than you can possibly imagine. I mean they have given millions and millions in this country and everywhere they find themselves. 14:46OUT -- track Terry Bennett came to know that generosity first hand. He collects cars. To show appreciation for his services, the bin Laden's gave him several. And now in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks, this Rochester physician feels he owes it to the bin Laden's to defend the family name. -- sot 16:04this is not a family of terrorists. This is a family of fathers and moms , and there's a terrorist relation. I mean there's a black sheep in every family. And I've confronted everyone that's interviewed me, don't you have a blacksheep in your family? We all do. We all do. -- They can't undo it , I certainly can't undo it what I can undo is the certain perception that they are supporting a terrorist- they are not. They disowned him eight years ago- the Saudi gvernment disowned him- he's a homeless person at this point in time for a pretty good reason 19:32 -- track Terry Bennett has become a familiar name and face to many who listen to the radio or watch television. He's given numerous interviews.-- sot 22:37I have had one hate letter and dozens of strangers stop me in the street and say damn that was an interesting story and im glad you did that. 22:44OUT -- sot 18:58It's a simple story. Nice family, good to me, deserving of something other than our disrespect. And they have a bad brother, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for them and I'm sorry for him hes not going to live to be old and they're going to have to grieve a relative at some point in the predictable future. |
