'Osama planned to poison US-bound cocaine'
26/07/2005 - 17:16:36

Osama bin Laden tried to buy large amounts of cocaine, spike it with poison and sell it in the United States, it was claimed today.

His plan failed when Colombian drugs barons told the terror chief it would be bad for their business, according to the New York Post.

The newspaper said it had reviewed a document detailing a US probe into the aborted transaction and the Drug Enforcement Administration

I'd imagine all the coke heads would just switch over to meth. At least the drug money would stay in the States that way.

I'd not call it business ethics so much as business sense. If they had ethics they'd be in another line of work.

Coke stimulates endorphins of happiness that meth cant create. Meth shrinks blood pathways and in return makes endorphins and other chemicals that hit the brain speed in fast yet this doesn't last. On Meth, the user eventually gets a high from lack of REM sleep, this causes, at the extreme, hallucinations and dementia.

Coke does none of this ( dont get me wrong, its bad stuff). Bin ladin assumes that all of western society is addicted to coke and porn. The man is a freak that uses isolated news articles as an excuse to kill people.
