In his final days, al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden was planning assassination attempts against US President Barack Obama and another attack on the American soil, according to a media report.
"Tapping away at his computer in the study of the suburban compound in Abbottabad...Laden wrote memos urging his followers to continue to try to attack the US, suggesting, for instance, they mount assassination attempts against President Obama and Gen David Petraeus," the CNN's National Security Analyst Peter Bergan wrote. At that time, Petraeus was the commanding general of NATO forces in Afghanistan.
