#2 Yeah, color me skeptical. Oh, I don't doubt there was coniving and back-stabbing, treachery seems to come with the culture. But that treasure trove of data the SEALs picked up would likely be damaging, not only to al-Qaeda, but to anyone remotely associated with it, including Mr. Z. There are easier ways to make Binny disappear than invite the SEALs to Abbottabad.

#7 This is a great story to circulate if true; even greater if not true. What better way to escalate the infighting.
