They (USA) wanted close ties with the Lion as he was a peoples hero, repected in the country. Someone the people would follow. Northern Alliance, em, not so much so.

What makes you think they hadn't attempted to kill him prior to his death? He was after all, an enemy. Had he made the decision to not grant the interview he might still be alive today. He didn't trust many for good reason.

Anywho,

The CIA has inserted a special device in the vicinity that can take high quality photographs of the camp from over ten miles away. Sometime in late January, the CIA learns that bin Laden has arrived in the camp.

They pass this information on to Ahmed Shah Massoud and his Northern Alliance, who are fighting the Taliban and al-Qaeda. Massoud dispatches a small team on mules to get near the camp and fire rockets at bin Laden. However, when Massoud tells the CIA about this, the CIA’s lawyers are alarmed. They don’t want the CIA legally complicit if the operation kills innocent civilians and they order Massoud to withdraw his team.

But due to poor communications the team goes ahead anyway and apparently shells the camp. However, bin Laden is not hurt and the incident passes without notice. Some US intelligence officials are upset at the legal policy that led to the order for Massoud’s team to withdraw.

A new policy is drawn up allowing the CIA to assist Massoud on an operation if the primary purpose of the operation is to kill bin Laden or one of his top assistants. Otherwise, the US officially remains neutral in the war between the Northern Alliance and the Taliban.


Here's a link for you to browse. :)

That's my point. They Taliban DIDN'T kill him in the 5 or 6 years he was an enemy of theirs. Yet 2 days before 9/11, somehow this reporter and cameraman got access to him. They begged for access, and Massoud acquiesced, as the story goes. I wonder if someone "vouched" for these reporters, knowing what they planned to do. You are correct in saying that Massoud was (understandably and wisely) extremely cautious. Seems odd he'd let them; unless, as I hypothesized, maybe someone vouched for them. Maybe a CIA asset?
