Steve Coll on Osama in Pakistan
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist (and Bin Laden biographer) Steve Coll has some thoughts about the circumstances of Bin Laden's discovery -- i.e., that he was found mere yards from Pakistan's equivalent of West Point. Yeah, we've all got some thoughts and questions on that front. Is it possible that Pakistan didn't know Bin Laden was living there for years? In Coll's words, "It strains credulity." I guess it involves who knew what when. But somebody knew something in the tangled mess of Pakistani government and society where, as we've seen lately, there are both good people fighting for freedom and extremists bent on advancing their own radical agenda.
