Does anyone know why he's got a problem with the Shias? :confused:

'Bin Laden' warning to Iraq Shias
Osama Bin Laden, the fugitive leader of al-Qaeda, has apparently warned Iraqi Shias not to attack Sunnis, saying they could face retaliation.
In an internet audio message to militants in Somalia and Iraq, he calls Shia leaders traitors and renegades (....)

I think because he's a Sunni.

I'm a "Sunni" and I don't view "Shia"(Shiite) Muslims that way. People like Osama bin Laden, who are "sunnis", hate "Shia" muslims because they view Aisha, Prophet Muhammad's (p.b.uh) last wife, unfavorably. And as time went by, their hate for each other became something much much more.

I didn't mean to imply that all Sunnis view Shia that way, just that some do, and OBL in particular does.

I know but I didn't want anyone else to misinterpret what you were saying.

Isn't it something about the Hidden Iman with the shia as well? Mohammeds son-in-law or something like that
