The British woman wanted for alleged terror offences in Kenya, dubbed the ‘White Widow’, wrote an ode to the late al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden proclaiming her love for him, a report said Tuesday.
Samantha Lewthwaite’s clumsy poem, littered with spelling mistakes, was found by British police investigators after they examined a computer hard drive found at a house in the Kenyan town of Mombasa, Britain’s Sky News television said.
“Oh sheik osama my father, my brother / My love for you is like no other / Oh Sheik Osama now that you are gone / The muslims must wake up they must be strong,” it begins.
Bin Laden was killed by US troops in May 2011 in Pakistan.
It continues: “al Qaeda are stronger and fiercer than ever / Thinking in the end you are stupid it will NEVER / Be over until the day that we see our lands returned and governed by He Allah the almighty,/ Whose law is complete.
“So make your plans and He is the best of planners/ Their was no victory for you Mr (US President Barack) Obama / The honour is his on martyred Osama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Lewthwaite is the widow of Germaine Lindsay, one of four Islamist suicide bombers who attacked the London transport network on July 7, 2005, killing 52 innocent people.
The 29-year-old Muslim convert is the subject of an Interpol ‘red notice’ warrant for her detention, issued at Kenya’s request after Islamist gunmen massacred at least 67 people at a Nairobi shopping mall last month.
The notice did not specifically mention the mall siege, saying instead that Lewthwaite was wanted on charges of being in possession of explosives and conspiracy to commit a felony dating back to December 2011.

Difference between this woman and Aafia Siddiqui
{Mentally ill patient} She was a very normal individual who went through hardships in life and from her actions I believe she needs to see a Psychiatrist because I don't believe her mental health is good. After her husband became a suicide bomber she moaned greatly but years after the death of her husband I believe she could have lost mental stability to support what she orginally condemned.
{Wrong and Falsified Evidence/Biased Witnesses and No solid/physical Evidence}
As for Aafia Siddiqui was a normal individual and to date there is no evidence to prove that she shot huge FBI men (no gunprints etc) and she has denied saying any extremist thing. She was a normal Pakistani girl studying in America with moderate and liberal views. Her family has denied her going to Afghanistan and states she was in Boston at the time of Al-Qaeda dealing with illegal business or whatever. She was caught in Afghanistan but rather according to her family she was kidnapped their with her children. Her children who were little were not terrorist but they were killed. Without a trial they illegally detained and tortured her, abused her and raped her. All these statements were found out from other detainees at Guantanamobay prison. Despite that at time of trial she was made to withdraw from all these statements and later with her poor health imprisoned for 86 years. Her teeth are fake, her skin is sewn and has a huge scar from chest to torso, and one of her kidneys were removed and regardless of her poor health she is given only paracetmol.
What a strange world we live in
Western Girls like men who potray the role of a blood sucking vampire in a movie
and Muslim girls like men who are thirsty for the blood of others....
I bet there will be posters of Osama Bin Laden in every muslim teen girl's bedrooms
Who says there's no equality in Islam? She's just as big a fruitcake as the men!
Is it a coincidence that the greatest woman warrior of the believers is also barely literate?!
@Super Star: :-)) you are giving very "dangerous idea" to our Fanatics, especially when this "SISTER" is GORI and YATEEM too.
Pakistanis must make sure this sister is brought to Pakistan with full honour along with the innocent daughter of Pakistan, Afia Siddiqui. She is a role model
mashallah.
