The head of the caretaker government in Lebanon Saad Hariri said Monday that Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, who was reported as killed by US special forces, was "a black mark" on Islam's history, and accused him of putting the religion "in hostile situations" with other faiths and cultures.
"The damage he has done to Islam's image and Arab causes is not less than the damage done by enemies of Muslims and Arabs worldwide," he said in a statement.
"The history of our nationalism and Islam will never forgive that man who was a black mark for two decades, filling the minds of youngsters with ideas about terrorism, murder and destruction."
Hariri said bin Laden did not only harm the United States and the West. "He has spread evil and division in the Muslim and Arab worlds."
