Osama bin Laden’s Niece

For those of you who haven’t yet met this woman, allow me to introduce her to you. This is Wafah Dufour, Osama bin Laden’s niece. She’s the daughter of Osama’s half-brother, Yeslam bin Laden.  She is an Indie/rock singer and a model, but she didn’t have her  big break through, yet.
