Osama Bin Chicken?
A new documenary informs us that Osama bin Laden was noted for running away when the bombs started falling. That is according to a long-time associate and former ally.
Osama Bin Laden talks tough, but other mujahedeen laughed at him in Afghanistan because he would get scared and bolt when under fire, a new documentary reveals.
"When Bin Laden used to hear the explosions, he used to jump. He used to run away," his longtime friend Hutaifa Azzam says on "CNN Presents: In the Footsteps of Bin Laden."

Why else is he still alive? He sends everyone else out to do the killing (and be killed).

Yeah - the loudest Jihadi voices sure are good at hiding. Look at Nasrallah.
