| Osama bin Laden 'ordered al-Qaeda to kill Barack Obama and David Petraeus' |
| 2012-03-16 |
| Osama bin Laden ordered cells in Afghanistan and Pakistan to shoot down a plane carrying Barack Obama and Gen David Petraeus, it was reported on Friday. According to a document retreived from the compound where bin Laden was shot dead by US Navy Seals last May, the al-Qaeda leader also told his deputy Atiyah Abd al-Rahman to focus attacks with the US rather than in Muslim nations. Bin Laden told Rahman that without Mr Obama, the US would be thrown into "crisis" because Vice President Joe Biden was "unprepared" for the job, the Washington Post reported. Biden actually was more prepared than Obama, which isn't saying much... He also showed apparent regard for Petraeus. "The reason for concentrating on them," bin Laden wrote in the 48-page document, "is that Obama is the head of infidelity and killing him automatically will make (Vice President Joe) Biden take over the presidency. ... Biden is totally unprepared for that post, which will lead the U.S. into a crisis. As for Petraeus, he is the man of the hour ... and killing him would alter the war's path" in Afghanistan. Bin Laden instructed Rahman to use Pakistani terrorist Ilyas Kashmiri for the attack. Kashmri was killed in a US drone strike in South Waziristan on June 2, 2011. "Please ask brother Ilyas to send me the steps he has taken into that work," he wrote. |

| #7 Kill Barack Obama" > Possible but highly unlikely They would have to get through the CIA, DoD, FBI, and finally the Secret Service. It is deliberately made difficult to off America's chief executive, much harder than to fly an airplane into a large building. Even those who do not like the gentleman won't accept the idea of outsiders messing with our guy. |

| #3 Probably thought Biden would only last until Pelosi knifed him and took the leadership for herself. Folks from authoritarian countries always underestimate the peaceful transfer of power in a Democracy. I remember hearing how impressed they were in some African country when the local American Embassy put a photo on the wall showing something like five living US Presidents together. That sort of thing doesn't often happen in the rest of the world. |
