Mr. Wales, of East Pennant, near Ketch Harbour, can't remember what he talked about with the future extremist. I had no idea who he was going to be in those days, obviously, or else I'd have got in my car and gone home. Salem, the eldest of patriarch Mohammed Awad bin Laden's 54 children, ran the family empire then. That's just the way they were.
People walk down the street holding hands in Saudi Arabia.
Salem didn't stay so close to his brother. He was a nice guy. I liked him a lot. Salem favoured blue jeans and was clean-shaven, unlike most Saudis. Salem owned so many homes, he couldn't keep track of them all, Mr. Wales said.
