Technically speaking, Peikney may be telling the truth- there are different transliterations of OBL name. UBL was OBL perhaps.

The question Mr. Mr. Peikney should answer is: Mr. Peikney, to the best of your recollection, what was the name of the person at the helm of Maktab al-Khidamat (MAK) in 1984-86, at the time you were station chief in Pakistan? Do we know that person today as Osama Bin Laden?
