Q: SEAL Team 6 partied with Osama for 40+ minutes. Where was the Pak military all this time?
No source link associated with this, just something that I don't understand and thought I would share.

I understand that a major Pak military base was less than a kilometer down the road. Surely they would have heard all the commotion. Was this a Pak military base, or just some kind of academy?

If the Pak military knew they were there, wouldn't they have reacted instantly if they were allied with Osama?

If they didn't know he was there, wouldn't they have been a bit curious as to what all the gun-seks was about?

If they were against Osama and wanted the operation to proceed, wouldn't they have given the US time to get in and out before "responding"?

It's hard to believe that the US was the only side to do any shooting, and that we only used silencers. There was a guy in Pakistan who unknowingly tweeted the whole thing, I understand, bit by bit. It couldn't have been all that quiet.

Do we have "Blue Thunder"-style technology on our helicopters that allow them to fly in and land silently? Didn't they have to blow up one chopper in place for some reason? Do we also have silent explosives?
