Pakistan acknowledges Bin Laden Intelligence collapse


Pakistan's major intelligence agency, the ISI, has said it is uncomfortable by its collapses on Osama Bin Laden – Al-Qaida chief.
An ISI spokesman told, where Bin Laden was executed by US forces on Sunday had been attacked in 2003. He said the compound "was not on our radar" since then.
He presented new features of the attack, saying Bin Laden's young daughter had said she saw her father gunshot. Bin Laden, 54, was the organizer and leader of al-Qaeda. He is thought to have planned the assault on New York and Washington on 11 September 2001, as well as a series other lethal bombings. He also said that the compound in Abbottabad, just 100km (62 miles) from the capital, was attacked when under construction in 2003.
It was considered an al-Qaeda active, Abu Faraj al-Libi, was presented there. But since then, "the compound was not on our radar, it is an uncomfortable for the ISI. He also said, "We are good, but are not the God." He further said, this one collapse should not make us look absolutely useless. Examine our previous record, during the last 10 years, we have arrested Taliban and al-Qaeda leaders in their hundreds, more than any other countries put together. The compound is presently a few hundred meters from the Pakistan Military Academy - the country's equal of West Point or Sandhurst. The ISI official also presented new or contradictory accounts of some of the events of Sunday's raid. They included:
Almost there were 17 to 18 persons in the compound when the raid was occurred
The US forces took away one man still alive, probably a Bin Laden son
Those who stay alive by the assault integrated a wife, a daughter and eight to nine other children, not in fact Bin Laden's; all had their hands coupled by the US forces.
The surviving Yemeni wife said they had shifted to the compound a few months ago
Bin Laden's daughter, who was 12 to 13 year old, saw her father gunshot

The officer said it was considered the US operational forces desired to take away the surviving women and children but had to dispose of the strategy when one of the helicopters break down, which was ruined by the Special forces unit.
The Americans has not remarked on anybody it arrested or had intended to seize, other than saying it had taken Bin Laden's body. The ISI spokesman said the organization had recovered some papers from the compound. The CIA is already said to be going through a huge number of hard drives and storage devices captured in the attack.
John Brennan, White House counter-terrorism adviser said, there had been apprehensions Pakistani security forces would position to contradict the US Navy Seal team conducting the attack but it had let alone any conflict.
The ISI spokesman said, we were completely immovable by shock. They were in and out before we could respond. He also said we had no earlier information of the attack.
President Asif Ali Zardari accepted Bin Laden "was not anywhere we had expected he would be. But he rejected the killing recommended Pakistan was weakening in its attempts to eradicate terrorism. Mr. Zardari said Pakistan had "never been and never will be the source of dedication that is frequently stated by the media. He said, such unjustified rumors may make thrilling cable news, but it doesn't reflect ground realities. Pakistan had as various causes to hate al-Qaeda as any nation. The war on terrorism is as much Pakistan's war as it is America's."
Mr. Brennan had said it was "unbelievable that Bin Laden did not have a support system" in Pakistan. Pakistani Foreign Secretary Salman Bashir attempted to illustrate a line under the issue, saying: "Who did what is beside the point this issue of Osama Bin Laden is history.
Osama Bin Laden was US’s top most wanted man but had escaped seize for more than ten years. US authorities say that after DNA tests they are "99.9%" certain that the man they killed and later buried at sea was Osama Bin Laden.
