For almost a decade we, the U.S. and free world, have spent infinite dollars, lives, and hours searching for Osama Bin Laden; we've been looking in rugged caves within Afghanistan, and have had our ears to the ground in reclusive, middle-of-nowhere filth as per George W. Bush. As per usual, GWB was terribly wrong; way off target...and at the expense of too many to know or count.
Bin Laden was a son of a rich Saudi magnate: while he was spending his family money on Al Qaeda not Aston Martins, he sure as hell was not going to spend a decade in a dirty cave, defecating in a pot; he wouldn't stand for that for more than six weeks, tops. We have been looking for him in all of the wrong places for almost ten years, or worse, it has taken ten years to finally figure out the obvious. Predictably, Bin Laden was found in a 1 million dollar hideout with 2 security gates where the inhabitants burned their trash and had no outgoing Internet or telephone... Oh, and no one talked to anyone.
As stated by real "experts", Bin Laden's digs "looked like it was a hideout for a high-profile terrorist."
Duh.
