Osama bin Laden's Cocaine Plot
Osama bin Laden tried to buy a massive amount of cocaine, spike it with poison and sell it in the United States hoping to kill thousands, according to reports. The plot failed when Colombian drug lords decided it would be bad for business if they got involved in the deal.
An investigation by the US Drug Enforcement Administration has examined how advanced the plot became when it was hatched a year after the 9/11 attacks.
Bin Laden personally met leaders of a Colombian drug cartel in 2002 to negotiate the purchase of tons of cocaine, saying that he was willing to spend tens of millions of dollars to finance the deal.
"They wanted to kill thousands of people - more than the World Trade Centre," said a source.
Although the drug lords would have reaped millions of dollars in profits by selling the cocaine to bin Laden, they knew that if his plan succeeded it might effectively destroy the market for their cocaine in America. They also feared retaliation from the US government once its citizens started to die from the drugs.
In 2002, the then DEA Director Asa Hutchinson said: "The DEA [has] received multi-source information that Osama bin Laden himself has been involved in the financing and facilitation of heroin-trafficking activities. It is important we recognise that when money goes from the pocket of an American to buy drugs, it may contribute to the financing of unspeakable crimes of violence around the world."
Get the drug market out of the hands of fucking criminals, quit spreading propaganda, and monitor the CIA!
Earlier this year, Afghan tribal leader Hajji Bashir Noorzai, who was one of the most wanted drug dealers in the world and had been identified as bin Laden's major heroin supplier, was arrested in New York City on federal criminal charges.

I don't understand the logistics either, surely the first person to do a line would drop dead and the gig would be up?

And people say the mechanisms of the free-market system don't work to protect consumers...

| Originally posted by jon jon I dunno, I think they'd make the link immediately. (toxin in blood stream was the cause of death) And shipping cocaine around the continent and making sure everyone does it simultaneously isn't an easy task. Not only that but most street dealers would test the shit prior, and I think the link in the chain would be broken well before that. Even if the Columbians would agree to distribute, the lower level dealers wouldn't dare kill off their clientel. The whole thing sounds like American anti-coke propaganda. |
The article is about Colombians!, Colombians people! Not Columbians. Those Columbians from BC just do pot.
i call bullshit.
government intentionally leaked this doc. and thought maybe they could kill two birds with 1 stone. believe their bullshit and support the war and stop people from using drugs WOW! seriously this is the stupidest thing ive read.
