Sooooo ....
an anonymous quote from a Pakistani who may or not be close enough to the top to have actually heard the quote, but more likely is just circulating a rumor that moved through the office ranks a front page on the New Republic?
Ever hear the phrase “Poisoning the Well”? Is it just possible that some groundwork is being laid here by the New Republic for the eventual capture of High Value targets. They have an agenda, and moving from a news story to a process story in the event Osama’s capture certainly serves that purpose.
Didn’t we hear these same accusations about the capture of Saddam? That he would be held in secret until the election? And the administration certainly has more control over their own armed forces that over the Pakistani secret service.
Why is so much easier to assume unmitigated evil on the administrations part than to question the reliability of an extremely suspect source?
