Q: What is the meaning of your call for Muslims to take arms against America in particular, and what is the message that you wish to send to the West in general?
1998 Interview with Osama Bin Laden
![Page 10: 9-11 Memorial](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568c3bdb1a28ab0235abb7ed/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
A: “The call to wage war against America was made because America has spear-headed the crusade against the Islamic nation, sending tens of thousands of its troops to the land of the two Holy Mosques over and above its meddling in its affairs and its politics, and its support of the oppressive, corrupt and tyrannical regime that is in control. These are the reasons behind the singling out of America as a target. And not exempt of responsibility are those Western regimes whose presence in the region offers support to the American troops there. We know at least one reason behind the symbolic participation of the Western forces and that is to support the Jewish and Zionist plans for expansion of what is called the Great Israel. Surely, their presence is not out of concern over their interests in the region....Their presence has no meaning save one and that is to offer support to the Jews in Palestine who are in need of their Christian brothers to achieve full control over the Arab Peninsula which they intend to make an important part of the so called Greater Israel.” -- Osama Bin Laden
