Bin Laden was a successful businessman in Sudan during that country's dark times. A dictator instituted sharia, and Bin Laden was able to run a variety of businesses in its capital. He was not a world renowned terrorist at this time, merely an intelligent and capable Islamic fundamentalist. It was only later he would move East and begin plotting a reign of cruel terror.
