You can believe your “conversations”, I will believe my sources. BS is BS no matter how you can shape, shade or perfume it. “Off the record” is another term for “look out here comes the BS!!!!” Just one sentence in the piece, concerning “sealing the border” so OBL could not escape is pure BS. I say it again.
How in the hell is that pure BS?
Our boys on the ground had him cornered. Only way for him to escape was to get to Pakistan. And the orders that came down let him escape to Pakistan.
It was a debacle by our leadership that he was allowed to escape. And if you are ever in the DC area send me a message and I’ll be happy to introduce you to people I know who will be happy to tell you what they tell me, in particular about the months leading up to 9/11 and the failure of leadership to get Bin Laden and serve justice quickly in late 2001
