Osama Bin Laden is born in Riyadh, the 17th of 52 children sired by a wealthy construction magnate named Muhammad Bin Laden.

Bin Laden graduates from King Abdul Aziz University with a degree in civil engineering. After the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, he joins the mujahedeen as a fundraiser. By the late 1980s, he becomes a guerilla leader with battlefield experience.

Bin Laden establishes al Qaeda, or “the base,” a database of ex-mujahedeen and supporters.

The Soviets pull out of Afghanistan, and Bin Laden returns to Saudi Arabia where he begins to work against the Saudi monarchy, eventually causing his family to disown him and the rulers to throw him out of the country.

Bin Laden flees Saudi Arabia, eventually landing in Sudan, a safe-haven for hundreds of terrorists. Meanwhile, after the Gulf War ends, US forces establish a large presence in Saudi Arabia, infuriating Bin Laden and Muslims across the region.

A bomb explodes in a hotel in Yemen where US troops had been staying while en route to a mission in Somalia. The Americans are gone by the time it detonates, so two Austrian tourists are killed instead. But the US intelligence community believes this could be the first terrorist attack by Bin Laden’s agents.

A car bomb explodes underneath the World Trade Center in New York killing at least five people and injuring scores more. The terrorist group responsible is believed to have links to the al Qaeda network.

Eighteen US troops are killed in an attack in Mogadishu, Somalia by guerillas who may have been trained and equipped by al Qaeda.

Bin Laden finances at least three terrorist training camps in Sudan.

The Saudi government revokes Bin Laden's citizenship.

Bin Laden writes an open letter to King Fahd of Saudi Arabia calling for attacks to drive U.S forces from the country.

Sudan yields to U.S. and Saudi pressure and expels Bin Laden, who moves to Afghanistan.

President Bill Clinton issues a top secret intelligence “finding” authorizing the CIA to destroy Bin Laden's network.

A large truck bomb explodes at the Khobar Towers US military residence, killing 19 servicemen. The attack may have been carried out with help from Bin Laden.

A grand jury investigation begins against Bin Laden. Meanwhile Bin Laden issues a Declaration of Jihad against U.S. forces in the Persian Gulf region and the Saudi government. At CIA headquarters, a group of analysts and operators create the "Bin Laden Issue Unit."

The Counterterrorist Center at the CIA assigns the Bin Laden Unit a group of guerrillas to work on operations against Bin Laden. Codenamed FD/TRODPINT, they are a family of about 30 grizzled mujahedeen who know the country intimately and had fought against the Soviet army with CIA help almost 20 years before. By early 1998, the Bin Laden Unit and the TRODPINT team come up with a plan to kidnap Bin Laden at his hideout at Tarnak Farm, a sprawling al Qaeda compound near the Kandahar Airport. The plan is killed by the White House and CIA top brass.

Bin Laden issues a declaration that Muslims should kill Americans anywhere in the world.

An American grand jury indicts Bin Laden for "conspiracy to attack defense utilities of the United States."

Al Qaeda agents detonate two bombs at U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, killing more than 220 people, including 12 Americans, and injuring more than 4,500.

American forces launch a cruise missile barrage against Tarnak Farm and a suspected chemical weapons plant in Sudan in retaliation for recent al Qaeda attacks. No major Qaeda leaders are killed.

The US Attorney's office indicts Osama Bin Laden and 11 other members of his group for conspiring to kill Americans stationed in Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Nairobi, Kenya, and Tanzania.

Al Qaeda agents hijack four U.S. planes and crash them into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and a field in Pennsylvania killing nearly 3,000 people. Within two months, a coordinated force of U.S. military, Special Forces, and CIA paramilitary officers coordinate a massive attack against al Qaeda and their allies in the Taliban government throughout Afghanistan with the help of Afghan fighters opposed to the regime. By November, Bin Laden’s hideout at Tarnak Farm is in the hands of U.S. forces. But Bin Laden himself is never caught.
