Looked at from the Pakistani government point of view

I don't think so - it would have made them more of a target. The USA did Pakistan a big favor by killing him.
Thank you.Other than that, welcome back.

Getting all hot under the collar because they've arrested their own citizens who were acting for a foreign power, on their own territory, without the knowledge of their own government is just for show, wouldn't you say? Similar situation with that American who was arrested in Lahore after killing a couple of people; Davies, was he called? Didn't they go through the motions and pay blood money to the relatives, as arranged through Pakistani courts?
(And though by no means on anything like the same scale, Posada Carriles was an international mass murderer and terrorist too.)
In fact we're discussing not that but the aftermath within Pakistan.seektravelinfo wrote:And Penta, of course you nit-pick as to how we took bin Laden out, the big bad USA, that's what you do.
Thank you.Welcome back.
Writing "all about the personal" is not my choice. Though I ignore most of them, sometimes I feel obliged to respond to repeated personal attacks, even when the attack is nothing to do with the topic in hand, as is so often the case. I am only too delighted to be able to discuss the issues instead.Glad to read the rebuttals and even happier not to open a thread and see that it's all about the personal ..... for once.
