Can you Say Fatwa?

GQMagazine:

The niece of the man who orchestrated the destruction of the World Trade Center seventy-eight blocks to the south has a point. After September 11, the name bin Laden (which is how itÂ’s spelled when referring to Osama) turned radioactive, borderline satanic-by-association. It made her feel cursed, presumed guilty—made her wonder if it might keep her from ever getting a record deal. So she took her motherÂ’s maiden name, Dufour, which makes for a better first impression, even though the bin Laden taint is always there.

UPDATE by Vinnie:

Hey, why stop at one?

>"Everyone relates me to that man, and I have nothing to do with him," Wafah Dufour, the daughter of bin Laden's half brother, Yeslam Binladin, says in the January edition of the magazine, referring to the al-Qaida leader.

"I want to be accepted here, but I feel that everybody's judging me and rejecting me," said the California-born Dufour, a law graduate who lives in New York. "Come on, where's the American spirit? Accept me. I want to be embraced, because my values are like yours. And I'm here. I'm not hiding.

WE EMBRACE YOU! WE ACCEPT YOU!

Now how about a Playboy shoot?

5 Is there not anyone else who sees the delicious irony of it all? He is the most backward, uptight, unfun person in the history of the world. His life is antithetical to the modern world, yet here is his own blood kin, a total hottie and a proud American to boot. Yeah, we'll win, because we've got all the hot chicks.
