It seems the United States is seeking — and may get — the opportunity to interview the three wives who were holed up with Osama bin Laden in Abbottabad.
These are the same three wives in the compound the night of the raid. Why didn’t U.S. forces just take the wives then? One of the couriers was apparently unarmed when shot also. He might have made for a good interview, on account of he was the link between bin Laden and the rest of al Qaida.
Hard to believe, but Battleland began covering this terrible story 25 years ago today:
The quiet coalition has come together to reverse the decline of the opposition rebel forces in Syria, according to this nice front-pager in Wednesday’s Washington Post. Much like in the case of Libya, the Obama Administration is hanging back and letting the local “market” determine his military response. He simply refuses to take the strategic lead, which is frustrating to many and yet decidedly clever on his part.
