Seemingly forever, the United States officially never recognized that Bin Laden was in Pakistan. Infact for years they denied it being a possibility, it was considered big news when they said "possibly" but they have finally came out and said it. In the most definitive statement in years, America's top intelligence official said Tuesday Osama bin laden is in Pakistan actively re-establishing al Qaeda training camps. The newly appointed Director of National Intelligence Jack McConnell made the assertion about bin Laden and his No. 2 man, Ayman al Zawahri, in testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee. As a direct quote he said: "to the best of our knowledge that the senior leadership, No. 1 and No. 2, are there, and they are attempting to re-establish and rebuild and to establish training camps." Too bad it had to take this long. |
