Everyone might be wondering, "How does this colossal prick manage to amass such a great amount of money to be able to mount an operation such as September 11th?"

Has anyone ever heard of "gum arabic?" Here is a link to the gum arabic website: http://www.redbay.com/plthomas/arabic/gac.htm

Let's get enlightened: gum arabic is used in the manufacture of tons of products that we Americans consume in gigantic quantities, such as soft drinks. Here is a direct quote from their "applications" web page: "Overview: The principle applications for gum arabic take advantage of its emulsifying, film forming, and bulking agent properties. Confections, confectionery coatings, beverages and flavor emulsions, lithography solutions, dietetic drinks, carbonless papers, pharmaceuticals, ceramic refractories, and desserts account for most of the gum usage."

Well, it so happens that BIN LAUDEN is one of the primary owners of the company based in Sudan which produces this stuff. So, we have basically been stuffing money his pockets.

Do the world a favor: start reading the labels of products you buy, and DON'T BUY ANYTHING WITH GUM ARABIC IN IT. Yes girls, that means NO MORE DIET SODAS. They are bad for you anyway. Seems like a minute sacrifice to make. This ingredient is used in desserts, too, and face it America: many of use are too fat, can stand to go on a little diet.

Maybe it'll put a dent in the monster's pockets, and he won't be such a welcome guest in the communities that harbor him.

Circulate this sucker around the world. IT AIN'T NO HOAX FOLKS. Sorry, P.L. Thomas & Co., Inc. (the exclusive agent for the Gum Arabic Company of Sudan).

I felt this would be interesting. Gum Arabic is an ingredient used in many softdrinks. I know Coca-Cola uses it in Coke and probably Diet coke. This product is made by a company that is largely owned by Osama Bin Laden. For every product we buy with that ingredient, we are aiding terrorist aggression with cash money. Lets encourage the replacement of that ingredient by boycotting the individual drinks that carry it, and not against the whole company itself.

Do you drink soda?Do you use mascara?Do you eat chocolate, sweets? Did you know everytime you drink a soft drink you are essentially putting money into the pocket of Osama bin Laden? I learned today on the 700 Club through the great wisdom of Pat Robertson that Osama bin Laden virtually has a lock on the entire supply of this product. Tonight I tried to get to the redbay.com website. I heard this was the link to the company linked to bin Laden, I am not sure it is. We cannot get access to the site. I urge you to write any company that uses this product and inform them we are now aware whom they are funding. The one way we can assist in defeating this madman is through his pocketbook. Investigate this product via MSN.com as I did, I was shocked how many things we use in our day to day life, that can EASILY be eliminated are funding his murderous attacks upon our brothers & sisters. Will you make that simple sacrifice? Please pass this along.
