"Hate" can brainwash ignorant people. Bin Laden was indeed born into a wealthy family. His family was related to the Saudi royal family. His father was engaged in construction, so his family was very rich. After his brother took over his father's business, The entire family has entered the upper echelons of Saudi Arabia, and may have more than one billion in assets. Bin Laden himself has 500 million in personal assets. Why did he finally take a more extreme road? This road is related to some of his own experiences, especially the social foundation he was on at that time.
I think he may have gone through three stages: First, when he was 10 years old, his father crashed and died. This traumatized the mind of young bin Laden. Bin Laden has 52 brothers and sisters, and he ranks 17th. He is not eye-catching at home, but he admires his father very much. After his father's death, it affects him, and Bin Laden appears taciturn. When he was about 10 years old, he lived in a city called Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. This city is a religious city with a strong religious color. Bin Laden lived in such an environment and grew up under the education of the church. During this period, he encountered two things. One was just in time for the oil crisis, which had a great impact on the American economy. From this, bin Laden had an idea that he despised and despised Westerners. Another thing he wants to rejuvenate the Arab world, he has such a grand ambition, this is his adolescence, this is his first stage, that is, the stage of growth.
The second stage began in 1979 when the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan. At this time, bin Laden and some of his partners joined the anti-Soviet lineup. They organized an organization called the Service Camp, which evolved into a service camp. Al-Qaeda. He participated in the anti-Soviet war at this time. The Soviet Union was forced to withdraw troops after ten years in Afghanistan. The vigorous bin Laden suddenly felt a sense of loss and lost the enemy. At this time, he returned to Saudi Arabia. The third thing he encountered in Saudi Arabia was the 1991 Gulf War. During the Gulf War, bin Laden wrote to the Saudi royal family, saying that I can rely on my al-Qaida organization to protect the Saudi royal family and some bases in Saudi Arabia, but the Saudi royal family did not adopt his views and instead asked the U.S. military to protect Saudi Arabia. There are US troops in Saudi Arabia, so bin Laden believes that the Saudi royal family is attracting wolves into the house. At this time, he has an aversion to the Saudi royal family and hates Western society, especially the United States, so that his al-Qaeda organization has gradually evolved into an anti-American organization. , And finally took extreme measures.
His first terrorist activity was the bombing of the Kenyan embassy planned in 1998, and then the terrorist attack known as "September 11" in 2001. From this we can see that the path of his growth, first of all, has a social impact, I feel that there are many unfair places in the society. Another is the influence of religion on him, which made him establish a belief that he wants to establish an Arab dynasty, and he believes that the West, especially the United States, is a natural enemy of the Arab world and the Arab kingdom. As a result, he finally took an extreme path.
