The Mujahideen Who Say Ni

According to an article in the New York Daily News, Osama bin Laden is a scaredy cat when under fire. A new documentary, CNN Presents: In the Footsteps of bin Laden, features his longtime friend Hutaifa Azzam, whose father, along with Bin Laden, created an organization that later became al-Qaida. Azzam said, "when bin Laden used to hear the explosions, he used to jump. He used to run away." His fellow mujahideen would laugh at him. Sounds like that scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail when King Arthur told his men in battle to "run away, run away!"
