Please note I found a .... "BBC" article so you wouldn't get diaper rash.
Headline:
"Timeline: The intelligence hunt leading to Bin Laden"
"2002"
"Following the 11 September 2001 attacks and the subsequent invasion of Afghanistan, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and US military began rounding up suspected al-Qaeda members and interrogating them either at the Guantanamo Bay detention centre in Cuba, or at secret overseas prisons.
Officials began compiling information about major players, foot soldiers, couriers and money men.
"Some prisoners - often after being subjected to "Enhanced Interrogation Techniques" (EITs) such as water-boarding and sleep deprivation - revealed that Bin Laden had a trusted courier whose pseudonym was Abu Ahmed al-Kuwaiti."
I recognize you know little about investigations, particularly those involving overseas venues, and I also recognize your propensity for marginalizing any information that does not "fit" your particular belief system while at the same time distorting what others say and write in an effort to ridicule and dismiss the validity of what information (and FACTS) they bring to the discussion ...
.. your inability to accept TRUTH is well documented from ASPD to the present.
Your 20-20 Hindsight Xray vision has failed you again. Just like YOUR PRESIDENT!
"2005"
"They discovered the courier's family name and the National Security Agency (NSA) set to work intercepting telephone calls and emails between his family and anyone inside Pakistan. From there they got his full name, Sheikh Abu Ahmed, a Pakistani man who was born in Kuwait."
I will "assume" your "conclusion" that Bush did nothing is based on ignorance, which is curable. The information is there, courtesy of the BBC. If it is not based on your lack of knowledge of the facts surrounding the investigation that led to the information leading to OBL's whereabouts (not on the run, but where he LIVED), but is based on some impaired desire to trash Bush and praise YOUR CHOICES FOR THE WHITE HOUSE, then you are simply a LIAR. Of the worst sort.
