Osama Bin Laden<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>

The latest Wikileaks expose of emails by Stratfor\u2019s VP for Intelligence Fred Burton shed interesting light on Osama Bin Laden and also Pakistan\u2019s role in it.<\/p>\n

For one, it seems that Osama\u2019s body was never consigned to the sea, but brought all the way back to the US<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Stratfor\u2019s vice-president for intelligence, Fred Burton, believes the body was\u00a0\u201cbound for Dover, [Delaware] on [a] CIA plane\u201d<\/em>\u00a0and then\u00a0\u201conward to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Bethesda [Maryland],\u201d\u00a0<\/em>an email says.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Stratfor is an intelligence consulting firm. \u00a0Some even call it \u201cshadow CIA\u201d.<\/p>\n

Burton further wrote about Pakistan officials\u2019 role in the Osama bin Laden stay in that country. \u00a0This is what his email<\/a> says:<\/p>\n

But, I get a very clear sense we (US intel) know names and

The \u201cPak Mil General\u201d who had knowledge of Osama\u2019s safe house etc, can very well be Gen Hamid Gul.<\/p>\n

I would reckon that even Musharraf knew about Osama, but that is more of my own take on the way Pakistani establishment works. \u00a0What do you think?<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
