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.

Osama was not running the camps, even from the so-called reports he was living there for last 5 years without telephone, without internet. Drone attacks were not for “OBL”, rather ALQ. Again you are misreading killing of OBL thinking it would’ve saved hundreds of billions, the WOT is not going to stop, it wouldn’t have stopped even if OBL was killed in 2002. US should’ve listened to Pakistan’s demand of sealing borders with Afghanistan that way nobody would’ve crossed borders to evade capturing. Everything about “peaceful” now is just wishful thinking.
