I dont get it.
TSA is still on the quest to stop Al-ladin and the magic lamp at airports across America?

"Bin Laden" would be the closest thing to a surname equivalent if going with how he and his family usually booked their tickets if flying commercially. It would show up as "Binladen" quite often.

His middle name equivalent -- and there are at least 2-4 of those -- almost never got used in the 1970s-1990s when it came to his travel.
