Osama bin Laden was assembling a team of Al Qaeda operatives to launch attacks on the 10th anniversary of 9/11, The Wall Street Journal reports.
Quoting senior U.S. officials, the paper says that before bin Laden was killed by Navy Seals in May, the al Qaeda leader was in the "discussion phase" of planning an attack to coincide with this September's remembrance ceremonies.
The officials said they had no indication that the plans ever became (or are) operational. They added that they have no idea what targets bin Laden and his associates considered attacking.
