Through all this...and no one has yet mentioned Osama...these are his people cooking this cr** up. And even if he is dead....it's his next in line running the show...

I remember when we had been in Afghanistan for a short while, Osama telling the Pakistani fighters to stay in Pakistan and I'll call you when I need you.

I was shocked and disappointed to hear Paetraus announce he believed it was a “lone wolf” because of the lack of chatter immediately after.
