That should stop the beatification news cycle...
Osama bin Laden was holed up in a two-story house 100 yards from a Pakistani military academy when four helicopters carrying U.S. forces swooped early Monday, killing the world's most wanted man and leaving his final hiding place in flames, Pakistani officials and a witness said. ... Abbottabad is home to three Pakistan army regiments and thousands of military personnel and is dotted with military buildings. The discovery that bin Laden's was living in an army town in Pakistan raises pointed questions about how he managed to evade capture and even whether Pakistan's military and intelligence leadership knew of his whereabouts and sheltered him.
No kidding. The man whose action unleashed all these 10-year-old deployments in neighboring Afghanistan was actually living comfortably 100 yards from his guest country's version of West Point, Sandhurst, Saint-Cyr? It could be a coincidence... Meanwhile, Asia Bibi still is in death row.
Now, can the American, British, German, French, Italian, Canadian, Polish, Australian troops, and those from many other nations, please be sent home? It is not as if they will manage to do what no major empire of the past ever could: tame Afghanistan... They can't even manage to protect Christian minorities in the area (remember Shahbaz Bhatti).
