They thought Bin Laden was in Afghanistan, he wasn't. Turns out he was in Pakistan the whole time, and the Pakistani glowies likely knew. With how obvious it is now that 9/11 was an inside job, who knows what level of involvement he actually even had. Dude was probably just a fall guy playing face for whoever was running the op, for all we know the guy ain't even dead. Sure was suspicious that the body of the most wanted man on the planet for an entire decade was unceremoniously dumped at sea before any third parties could verify identity.
