Looming Tower

[rich]

another interesting tidbit in the Looming Tower is that Zawahiri was
reportedly at times willing to hand over Bin Laden--there was tension b/w
the two apparently but they seemed to have been resolved.
there was alot of resentment within Al Qaeda over the prominence that
surrounded Bin Laden who were all mostly Egyptian--they got paid better,
etc.
