We always can find plenty of cash to fund our enemies.
Just look at what we give the UN.

Yes. Let them get their OWN Chinese loans!
We can even couch in in ‘diplomatic’ terms by telling them we’re ‘helping them out’ by cutting out the middle-man and connecting them directly with our wholesaler.

Shrug. Americans are gullible. People still think Osama had some mythical compound in the mountains.

“And just who designed and built that compound ?”
Yeah, it is very suspicious with the extremely high walls, barbed wire, etc. Sure, there were lots of ex-military officials residing in the area, but presumably the Pakis would know if officials were living in a compound like that- especially one so close to training grounds and the like.

Celine Dion recently bought Osama’s old Mountain Fortress. It’s been on the market for years since Seigfried and Roy’s deal fell through. She painted the interior completely white and has fresh flowers brought in daily.

When a nation allows an enemy to survive, and even funds that enemies survival... It is a demonstration of sheer power to those who understand what is going on... Both sides note this reality. Most miss the point.
It is a Roman thing.

"And just who designed and built that compound ?" My statement was meant to imply that all structures/environments are ideal places for Seal Team Six.

I suspect the same. They want US funding in perpetuity and eliminating terror would eliminate funding.

On sat images that compound sticks out like a sore thumb. Very distinct from the surrounding homes. Also a very strange shaped plot of land. And reports are he lived there for 5 years. Built around 2005 or 2006.

uh... is this news? the Pakis have always supported alq

The reason we ‘thought’ there was such a complex in the mountains, is because WE BUILT IT.

My statement was meant to imply that all structures/environments are ideal places for Seal Team Six. Understood. Still, the question who financed and built that compound remains.

Lol. SOF searched high and low. Nothing, no mythical compound.Yeah, and the city I live in has underground tunnels that go from a certain neighborhood to downtown and to one particular office building.
These are, of course, mythical tunnels and don't exist. No one has ever done a report on them or taken pictures from inside.
There is no proof they exist. At all. Aren't there, never have been. And I'm sticking with that story.
