If Pak military including the ISI had not played the double games that is now clear that they have been, we could have captured OBL a long time ago; more importantly:

• terrorist camps and leaders would have been neutralized without so many soldiers dying

• no drone attacks would have been necessary, thus sparing the dozens of civilian collataeral & mistaken damage

• US would have saved hundreds of billions in scaled down operations in Afghanistan

• Not only Pakistan but Afghanistan would haave also be on a much more peaceful trajectory by now

If only they hadn’t shielded him, lied about it and played double games.

Disgusting.

My apologies to patriotic Pakistanis but this is how I feel.

Shielded him? Where is your evidence that they shielded him?

Like Barbie said, politics is a dirty game, and Pakistan is at the heart of much of the worlds politics.

You make it all seem very cut and dry, but the situation is more complex then your simple run down implies.
