SANAA, YEMEN: A message received on a mobile phone displays a picture of Saudi-born prime terror suspect Osama bin Laden, with his name in Arabic writing next to it, in the Yemeni capital Sanaa 24 October 2001. Such messages have been circulating in Yemen through the short message service (SMS ) since the US-led strikes on Afghanistan started earlier this month. This problem has forced GSM phone companies in Yemen to interrupt their services in the country temporarily. (Film) AFP PHOTO/Khaled FAZAA (Photo credit should read KHALED FAZAA/AFP/Getty Images)
