It is also very likely that ‘support’ and ‘opposition’ to OBL both existed in Pak army at various levels/groups, one group wanted to keep him ‘detained’ (so no other acts can be carried out) at the same time away from US while some leadership disagreed with him being there, so at the time OBL was killed the leadership who was in disagreement allied in the attack.

The division of support v/s opposition for any group has always been there in both army and ISI. Whether its taliban or OBL or something else. Its a matter of which faction comes over which one. Just few years back there were a colonel a bunch of corps were caught for their links to terrorists but this whole situation of OBL was different. Apparently, some from the top brass wanted to keep him alive and safe somewhere and keep bargaining with the west and pull as many big $$$ as possible on the name of hunt for the most wanted man on earth. I just hope they dont repeat this mistake ever again.
