| #7 How often does some Islamic chick show up at the local medical service and have a baby? Prolly a bunch. Unaccompanied by her male relatives? Prolly not very many. Sounds like a conspiracy or willful negligence. |

| #5 Agree Al. This country like Paelo rely on handouts. He was a cash cow simple as that. |

| #4 I have a theory: The ISI was keeping Osama as a bargaining chip. The goal was to extrort as much money and military hardware as possible before giving him up. Throughout the entire GWOT, I've noticed a pattern: Whenever the US began to complain publically about Pakistan's cooperation, they'd arrest another Al Qaeda big whig. The takedown of Bin Ladin seems outside the usual pattern (at least from the Pakistani reaction to it). They seem especially angry that the Americans were able to do this on their own. My suspicion is that they grabbed Zawahiri from his safehouse and have him protected in a super secure and defended location. I expect them to play super hard-ball with us before they give him up. al |

| #3 I am not so sure this is true "No smoking gun evidence has emerged of officials helping hide the bin Laden family. If the US had found links to the shadowy Inter-Services Intelligence agency – with its long connection to Afghan Jihadi groups – among data recovered from the Abbottabad house, then you can be sure we would have heard about it by now." It could be that Pakistani intelligence always covered its tracks and/or the US intelligence for its own reasons is not talking. |
