Reply #23: MMonk, I posted a thread yesterday (?) simply titled "Analyst: Bin Laden was living like a prisoner"

[Poll_Blind]

Here it is, if you haven't seen it. When I posted this it never occurred to me that over half of those who responded to my post were assuming that I'd posted it as some maudlin sympathy piece, instead of more evidence that the Pakistani government or some portion of it had played a role in keeping bin Laden safe.

Earlier than that, I posted an article entitled "Photos show three dead men at bin Laden raid house". Same thing, 90% of the people who responded could not get passed that fact that the dead appeared to be unarmed but exhibited no intellectual curiosity about what sort of favorable environment must the world's most dangerous terrorist be in, in order to feel so comfortable and safe.

Even after I made this post in my own damned thread to help them see something a bit more important:

Subject:HINT: Is it really more important that the SEALS might have shot unarmed terrorists OR...

...that the reason those terrorist might have been unarmed was because they were set up comfortably by the Pakistani government?

Which of those is really most important to people here?

There was still no coming round.

I drew my own conclusions as I am sure you have drawn yours. :(
