now... don't get me wrong... i understand that Osama and Usama are some how interchangeable for his name... but the question i am posing is this... how come, ever since i was like 12, i have always heard about Osama bin Laden, but now since 9/11 a good portion of the time they refer to him as Usama? i find this a little confusing. maybe it was just something i never noticed, because he was talked about a lot less on the news prior to 9/11, but i just found it odd...

***ironic note: now that they refer to him as usama his first three letters of his name are USA... conspiracy maybe...
