The bin Laden family disowned Osama after he fled Saudi Arabia in 1991 and he was stripped of his Saudi Arabian citizenship in 1994. Meanwhile, a great number the bin Laden family has been living and working in the United States and has donated millions of dollars to the United States University system.
