What does Bin Laden Have To Do With Handbags?

According to a recent news article, Yeslam Bin Laden, the half brother of Osama Bin Laden, is now in the luxury handbag business! The handbag line is called "Yeslam" and is Geneva based.

Mr. Bin Laden's financial affairs have been under very close observation since 911 and there is a unique alliance newly formed between 911 victims and a determined ex-wife, Carmen. The families and Carmen are suing in a New York court for financial compensation but Mr. Bin Laden claims he has no business dealings in the United States and that he has had nothing to do with his infamous half brother, Osama, for over 20 years. Carmen claims that the Bin Laden's transfer assets back and forth to protect their money and that they still support Osama.

The handbags are part of a luxury goods line that includes watches, perfumes, belts, and sunglasses. As this suit progresses, I will report the outcome here in my handbag blog.
