CLEVELAND (CBS Cleveland) — Cleveland Cavalier fans aren’t the only ones who still feel betrayed by LeBron James – alleged al Qaeda terrorists do, too.
According to The Washington Post, Osama bin Laden’s former Afghan translator wrote to his lawyer Carlos Warner that James is a “very bad man.”
“Dear Mr. Warner!” Mohammad Rahim — who is currently being held at Guantanamo Bay — wrote, according to the Post. “Lebron James is very bad man. He should apologize to the city of Cleveland.”
Warner told the paper the Rahim feels “betrayals are not tolerated or forgiven, although an honest apology from an offending peer is valued.”
James earned the ire of Cleveland, and much of the nation, after announcing that he was leaving the Cavaliers for the Miami Heat on ESPN’s “The Decision” in the summer of 2010.
After LeBron and the Heat choked away the 2011 NBA Finals to the Dallas Mavericks, they came back to capture the championship this past year against the Oklahoma City Thunder, where James was named NBA Finals MVP. He also captured the NBA’s regular season MVP and helped lead USA Basketball to a gold medal during the London Olympics.
