The U.S. released documents from Osama bin Laden yesterday detailing how the terrorist leader was plotting to go after President Obama and Gen. David Petraeus. But not Biden:

I asked Shaykh Sa'id, Allah have mercy on his soul, to task brother Ilyas to prepare two groups - one in Pakistan and the other in the Bagram area of Afghanistan - with the mission of anticipating and spotting the visits of Obama or Petraeus to Afghanistan or Pakistan to target the aircraft of either one of them. They are not to target visits by US Vice President Biden, Secretary of Defense Gates, Joint Chiefs of Staff (Chairman) Mullen, or the Special Envoy to Pakistan and Afghanistan Holbrook. The groups will remain on the lookout for Obama or Petraeus.

The reason for concentrating on them is that Obama is the head of infidelity and killing him automatically will make Biden take over the presidency for the remainder of the term, as it is the norm over there. Biden is totally unprepared for that post, which will lead the US into a crisis. As for Petraeus, he is the man of the hour in this last year of the war, and killing him would alter the war's path. (emphasis added)

The Vice President as insurance policy. A long American tradition that even bin Laden understood.

It seems bin Laden was partial to Keith Olbermann. If that doesn't give him a leg up for a return to MSNBC there is no justice in the world.

@ctruppi #20: No I do not expect Michael Moore, Susan Sarandon, Sean Penn or others of their ilk to change their point of view.  The only power these people have is that we grant them by heeding their voice; I expect that in a certain set of circumstances that we will stop listening to them for a while.  Your mention of 9/11 proves my point.  After the attacks of that day this country was going to war, the only question was with whom.  We then invaded two countries and have waged war for more than a decade that continues to this day no matter how much the peaceniks you mentioned cry.  This is what we did for the death of 3000 of our fellow citizens we did not know.  What might we do if they made it personal?  If they killed a peace loving president that about 50% of our electorate loved?  Would Biden had the moral character to direct the nation’s wrath correctly and restrain it if necessary?
