Book claims Pakistan hid Osama in ‘98
2005-07-04
Pakistan hid Osama Bin Laden from the United States in one of its military camps in 1998 after a US missile strike failed to kill the militant leader, according to a new book. The cruise missile barrage hit Bin Laden’s mountainous camp just hours after he had left.

In days after the strike, it was unclear whether Bin Laden had survived. During that time, Pakistan spirited him across the rugged border to one of its military camps, Kathy Gannon writes in “I Is for Infidel,” due out next month.

#2  No big revelation. Paki was hiding OBL in late 2001. The Pakis' continued to hide him in 2002, 2003, 2004, and continue to hide him even as I type this. Oh, and by the way, they did it knowingly.

#1  If true -- a big if -- it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.
