Since always. Osama is just easier to pronounce so the media changed it.

What's so funny about that?

Because he is our (USA) sworn enemy and people don't even know his proper name.

His "proper name" isn't written in English. It's phonetically translated.

I see it all the time with people's names. I've known Asian people whose last name would sound similar but be smelled differently in English. However, in their country, they had the same last name with the same spelling.

Exactly. His name isnt english - we romanize it to the closest we can get it to sound. Osama, Usama, whatever floats your boat.

Same reason depending on what takeout you go to, you could be eating general tso's, tsao's or zhao's chicken.

Damn!


SEriously.. that height, money (used to anyway), he could have been a pimp!

Considering the amount of children he has, I'd say he definitely got his pimp on. :p

??? It can be translated both ways. I don't see your point.
