Just 800 yards away from the world's most wanted man: How U.S. soldiers 'trained Pakistani troops in how to hunt Al Qaeda... next to Bin Laden's hideaway'

U.S. troops were just 800 yards from Osama Bin Laden's Abbottabad compound during a training rotation in Pakistan in 2008, it has emerged.

The embarrassing proof that some of America's best military men were so close to the world's most wanted terrorist was found buried in diplomatic cables released by whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks.

Can you tell me precisely what is inside the upstairs back bedroom of a house 800yards away from you?
As I said yesterday, the best place to hide is in plain sight............it's the last place that people look,,,
I might be able to if that was precisely what I was being trained for, Chuck... Given that the Pakistanis are being criticised for not noticing what was going on under their noses, perhaps Americans can take a small share of the embarrassment too.

he can't possibly be trying irony, he didn't say :-)
I agree with Chuck, hindsight is a wonderful thing. 1/2 a mile in any given direction, how many houses, should they have searched every house? If so how often? If you searched it in 2003 should you search every year.

As I said on another question it took the US 20 years to catch the Unabomber. He was in a house in the hills how could they have missed him?

Irony ? - that's not irony .

I know what irony is - i'ts like goldy and bronzy and made of iron

I'd like to know whose telephone numbers that were stitched inside Bin Ladens clothing. They must give a lead to actually helped him whether it was the Pakistan security services or what.

To have lived for up to 6 years in a fortified compound so close to he military establishments stinks of a cover up by Pakistan.

The Americans can't trust Pakistan it makes ou wonder why we do, their nation has been nothing but trouble and we should sever our ties with them then at least we know who are our real enemies.
