Osama bin Laden 'Was Blind In One Eye' -- The Telegraph
Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri has given an hour-long account of the life of Osama bin Laden, revealing that the terrorist mastermind was blind in one eye and a one-time Muslim Brotherhood member.
In the video, the third in a series entitled "Days with the Imam," Zawahiri narrates stories about bin Laden who was killed in a raid by US Navy Seals in May 2011 at his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
Zawahiri revealed "for those who do not know" that Saudi-born bin Laden was left blind in the right eye after an accident in his youth.
He also said bin Laden was a former member of the Saudi branch of the Muslim Brotherhood before being evicted for insisting on jihad against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan in the 1980s.
