[@AsifKhan-hf9zy]

biggest military college, not military base he probably had inside contacts with pakistani military intelligence, afterall he made many of them super rich via the afghan war. so they built him a house where they knew no one would expect him to be. afterall they would know their own country the best. all he needed was 3-5 supporters out of the 50-60 cadre of intelligence officers in the pakistani military intelligence. that is all he would need to get him a safe house. he could easily have bought them, pakistan is a dirt poor country, and $500,000 would be a fortune for 2-3 low level intelligence officers.

[@teddymills1]

Yes. What bombs could waste the compound but not blow up the neighbourhood. A daisycutter would be too much. Maybe they were going to use some Paveways. But that prevents the physical identification. US wanted to avoid civilian casualties. Weighed against knowing the Pakistani army barracks were just down the street. Having that Blackhawk crash in the compound was almost a real operational disaster. Obama would have lost the Presidency.

[@0xSchwarz]

​@@captainmaxwell5017Bro, on other documentaries the US really wants to airstrike Bin Laden location, but he's very sneaky and cautious, so the US didn't want to use it unless they're 100% sure, they're not risking to bomb his location and falsely target one of his dummy bases that would result Bin Laden being more cautious. Additionally, if they chose to airstrike, the US will have a hard time identifying the body if it's really Bin Laden. Airstrike is not the best option but it's still one of the US options to subdue Bin Laden. So it's not only available in fiction. Another example is how advanced the modified helicopter they used. It's so quiet that it didn't alert some of the people inside the compound. If it weren't for the crash of one of the choppers they wouldn't see the Seal team 6 coming until shots are being fired.

It will always amaze me how people can say those such as Ibn Ladin and Al Bahgdadi don't have "accurate" interpretations of the Quran. That very statement is a misnomer. Their interpretation of the Quran is as valid as the most peaceful moderate Muslim, because that is the definition of interpretation. If an entire nation is leveled by a nuke in the name of Allah, then that was a true real Islamic attack. You cannot say "well interpretations that are violent and evil aren't "real" islam". Whether or not you think Islami is a violent religion isn't the point. It certainly is, but the point is Ibn Ladin was a Muslim, committed his acts of evil because of religion and in the name of Allah.

@@melgonz.6962 I do not disagree he was effectively a cult leader with a lot of followers and guns. What I don't understand is why so many in this world think attacking people that are not involved in the fight on either side is going to further their cause unless their cause is to be a martyr. Oh well bin laden is just another on a long list of people that are no longer among the living and his cause has cost around half a million Muslim lives. Half a million people that were sympathetic to his cause. To me that is not how you win in an ideological war. Like so many that have come before him standing at a podium talking while others fight and die and they hide. This to me is what it means to be a coward.

I served. I was there in 2005 and 2007. I knew as soon as I was old enough to know that I wanted to be in the Army. When 9/11 happened I was in high school and knew as soon as I graduated I would go and fight. I deployed at 17 years old in 2005, saw fellow soldiers get killed within the first month. Saw many Iraqi Civilians dead on the sides of the roads from them killing each other. We were attacked and we captured a lot of insurgents belonging to Al-Qaida. They were ruthless killers and the foundation that built ISIS.

[@Bluepickles333]

@@aaaaaa-hh8cq can’t tell if you’re joking. Yes Americas military is the number one reason ISIS is non existent today. There are still cells that exist in Africa and Syria but not large enough to be worldwide threat. ISIS captured Mosul and that’s when they were at their largest, 2016. The Iraqi army did their best to fight ISIS but weren’t making much ground. It was the US air and ground support that allowed Iraqi forces to take Mosul back. We had troops on the ground assisting, training, and fighting with the Iraqis. Once Mosul was recaptured by coalition forces ISIS was basically decimated. Sometime mid 2017 Iraqi and coalition forces declared victory over ISIS.

[@1921Mathew]

Exactly! This whole documentary is such bulls**t! lol

[@Berm_Blaster]

It's probably a combination. At first he was probably very curious about the outside world. What young kid doesn't want to go explore? He could have just been really curious about the helicopter because helicopters aren't flying around like we see here in the states. That could've been the first time he ever saw a helicopter or first time he was able to record one. Or maybe he was looking to see if anyone was spying. I'm sure as he grew older he started to know more about what was really going and the reality of who his father was and the life he was unfortunately born into. And I'm sure some of the recordings aren't from his son. We can only speculate, the world will never know the actual truth behind any of this. What a shame Pakistan keeping OBL safe so they could keep getting financial aid from US.

[@chrisklest1238]

I have tons of footage where I have videotaped the landscape through a telescope from a 12-story apartment outside of Chicago; it's simply curiosity as there is no way to effectively visit all of the objects that I've looked at; Zooming in is part of that process. I've recorded planes as they took off and landed from O'hare airport. My curiosity was, how much detail can be seen with a telescope and how well can I follow a moving object?
