Mocking Feckless Pretender Biden...

Osama Bin Laden banned Al Qaeda from trying to assassinate Joe Biden

The former Al Qaeda chief wanted to see then president Barack Obama taken out due to the prospect of having Biden as leader for the US, he explained in a 2010 letter.

Bin Laden believed that Biden would cause crisis as US leader.

Osama bin Laden banned any assassination attempt against Joe Biden when he was Vice President to Barack Obama.

Former Al-Qaeda leader Bin Laden, the instigator for the September 11 attacks, pushed for a plot against Obama partly because he felt that Biden would be less competent as his replacement.

He reportedly wrote to an aide in 2010: “Biden is totally unprepared for that post, which will lead the US into a crisis.”

The letter to Atiyah Abd al-Rahman was found among other documents at the Pakistan compound where he was killed by US soldiers in 2011.

While it was first brought to light in 2012, it is now being pointed to by opponents of Biden over his handling of the Afghanistan crisis.

Biden has been criticised for his handling of the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan

The withdrawal of Western forces allowed the Taliban to gain the upper hand and they were able to topple Kabul quicker than expected last Sunday.

Bin Laden said in the letter: “’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.

The terrorist also wanted a hit on ex-CIA director David Patraeus.

He wrote: “As for Patraeus he is the man of the hour in this last year of the war and killing him would alter the war’s path.”

The purpose of the 48-page letter was generally to push for attacks directly against the US and not in...

Taliban Threatens Joe Biden: Stay in Afghanistan Past August and Suffer ‘Consequences’

A senior Taliban spokesman told the U.K.’s Sky News on Monday that the United States and its ally Britain will face “consequences” if they seek to extend their military presence in Afghanistan to ensure the safe evacuation of their citizens.

American President Joe Biden announced this summer that he would withdraw all American troops from the country by August 31. Biden had previously announced in April that the withdrawal would end on September 11, the 20th anniversary of the jihadist attacks that prompted the Afghan War. Both dates were a significant extension of the war from the set withdrawal date under former President Donald Trump, who brokered a deal with the Taliban that would have seen a full American military exit by May 1.

The Taliban followed Biden’s extension of the war – and his choice to break the agreement Trump brokered with the jihadist organization – with a nationwide campaign to overthrow the now-former government of Afghanistan. The campaign culminated with Taliban terrorists surrounding the country’s capital, Kabul, on August 15, prompting former President Ashraf Ghani to abruptly flee the country.

Taliban leaders now control nearly all of Afghanistan, excepting a small pocket of resistance in north-central Panjsher province, which the jihadists claimed on Monday they had surrounded and would soon control.

Taliban spokesman Suhail Shaheen discussed the current situation in Kabul – where thousands are attempting to reach the airport to avoid being under Taliban rule – with the U.K.’s Sky News, denying that the crowds feared for their safety under the radical Islamist terrorist group. The desperation to flee Taliban rule has prompted multiple deaths in and around the Kabul airport resulting from stampedes and deliberate violence. Eyewitnesses have also reported extensive violence against civilians on the part of Taliban thugs outside the airport, reports the Pentagon confirmed last week.

Shaheen appeared to use the unsubstantiated claim that the Kabul airport chaos did not result from any fear of the Taliban to support the Taliban’s resistance to foreign forces staying in the country to help civilians flee.

The August 31 deadline, Shaheen said, was a “red line.”

“President Biden announced that on 31 August they would withdraw all their military forces. So if they extend it that means they are extending occupation while there is no need for that,” Shaheen said. “If the US or UK were to seek additional time to continue evacuations – the answer is no. Or there would be consequences. It will create mistrust between us. If they are intent on continuing the occupation it will provoke a reaction.”

Shaheen did not elaborate on what consequences Western soldiers would face in the event that their leader ordered them to...
