What was it like to sit opposite Osama bin Laden? In 1997, Peter Bergen produced a television interview with Osama Bin Laden. Now he joins William and Anita to revisit that encounter in Part 5 of Empire’s Road to 9/11. A THREAD 🧵 https://t.co/SKLSNjdgCY 1.3K views · 7 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies 07 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

@EmpirePodUK Love listening to you two but this “canard” is a red herring for a broad, true story of CIA involvement in the Soviet-Afghan war, just as we funded Contras, etc We prepared & fertilized soil for anti-colonial jihad for Cold War and it came home to roost https:/ 13 views · 0 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies 05 Sep 2026 · Open on X →
@EmpirePodUK Lol. This seems like semantics to me. The CIA threw vast sums of money and weapons at insane murderers in Afghanistan and indirectly created Islamism as a military force. Well done lads 👍🏻 6 views · 0 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies 04 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

@EmpirePodUK @DalrympleWill Tribal areas , perhaps .He is popular every where in the region .. but you have one thing wrong - it was ‘the Mercedes you and he were in ‘ , not ‘his Mercedes’. He has never owned one. It’s a small correction but not a meaningless one. 58 views · 0 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies 04 Sep 2026 · Open on X →
