Description

Osama bin Laden’s ultimate goal was to destabilize the U.S. by assassinating Vice President Joe Biden, believing his unpreparedness would plunge the nation into chaos—though this plan ultimately failed 21:14.

Key Takeaways:
• Bin Laden explicitly wrote in a 2010 letter that he would not assassinate Vice President Biden, but believed his rise to power would lead to U.S. collapse 0:38.
• In a 2010 letter, bin Laden proposed assassinating both President Obama and General David Petraeus, with the aim of triggering a political crisis that would elevate Biden to the presidency 20:01.
• Bin Laden viewed Biden as unprepared and a liability, claiming his leadership would paralyze the U.S. government and create a power vacuum 21:20.
• Despite the plan, U.S. intelligence confirmed bin Laden’s location in Abbottabad, Pakistan, and Operation Neptune Spear successfully killed him in May 2011 25:12.

The plan to elevate Biden through assassination was a calculated fantasy, not a viable strategy—proving bin Laden’s influence had waned by the time of his death. Biden, instead, became a symbol of stability and resilience in the face of global terrorism.

What if the world’s most wanted terrorist believed 
his greatest weapon… was the U.S Vice President? It sounds far-fetched - like a scene from a 
spy thriller - but this audacious plot was very real. It was part of Osama bin Laden’s 
calculated effort to bring down America from within. We’re uncovering the chilling plan 
devised by the 9/11 mastermind on today’s episode of The Infographics Show – Osama Bin 
Laden’s Plot to Make Joe Biden President. In May 2010, Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was
