Is Osama Bin Laden the source of AIDS?

Question

I heard a radio announcer say that Osama Bin Laden is the source of aids; that he used his family money to commission work by leading middle east virologists in the early 70's to eradicate 'infidels' since by his standards anyone even remotely sexually promiscuous had to be 'infidels'. Has anyone else ever heard this? Is there any possibility of truth in this?

Answer 1

There is absolutely no reason to believe this.  AIDS has been around a lot longer than bin Laden has been playing dirty tricks.

Answer 2

No Way

Answer 3

Don't think so, Bin laden was quite promiscuous himself when he studied here in the US

Answer 4

You'd best check the credentials of the radio announcer.  Bin Laden may have a lot of problems, but I doubt that AIDS is one of them.

Sounds like you've been listening to the AM band - which is loaded with fools spewing forth nonsence, hatred, and intolerance and very, very little that is factual.

Answer 5

You'll have to ask his girlfriend(s).

Answer 6

No .

Answer 7

Now there's one for the books.

Answer 8

If the naughty Osama Uncle is the source of AIDS, then the radio announcer is the source of morons around the world.

But as we know that AIDS virus and morons have been around the world before 70's the rumor is pointless.
