Documents found at Osama bin Laden's compound in Pakistan indicate that before his death, he directed operatives to assassinate US President Barack Obama and US Gen. David H. Petraeus, The Washington Post reported Friday.

According to the report, bin Laden explained to his top lieutenant his reasoning for targeting the two.

"Obama is the head of infidelity and killing him automatically will make [Vice President] Biden take over the presidency ... 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... and killing him would alter the war’s path in Afghanistan," the al-Qaida leader allegedly said.
