Bloomberg is reporting that Pakistan will allow U.S. interrogation of Osama bin Laden‘s wives taken into custody after the U.S. mission in Abbottabad that resulted in the killing of the al Qaeda. This came up last night on CNN’s AC 360 and guest Fareed Zakaria told host Anderson Cooper that this was perhaps a way for Pakistan to diminish the deep embarrassment of having bin Laden ostensibly caught hiding in plain sight in their country.

Writing for Bloomberg, Viola Gienger and Haris Anwar report:

The Obama administration expects to get access to the women soon, based on a response from the Pakistani government, a U.S. official said yesterday on condition of anonymity. The specific timing of the access wasn’t set, the official said.

The decision followed verbal skirmishing between the two countries. Pakistani officials have said that the U.S. should have informed Pakistan of the operation in advance. U.S. officials have questioned how much Pakistani authorities knew about bin Laden’s presence in their country.

The Obama administration said yesterday that it wouldn’t apologize for entering Pakistan to raid bin Laden’s compound, as the South Asian country’s prime minister tried to counter domestic criticism over the military’s failure to detect and stop the U.S. attack.

Zakaria and Cooper discussed the political impact of this decision and Zakaria suggested that Pakistan is in much greater need of normalized relations with the U.S. because of the financial support that they receive. Watch the clip below, courtesy of CNN:

You try dusting wearing a burqa.

It’s halarious how MSNBC and CNN are both so far in the toilet that they’ve each stooped to hiring actual muslims to ‘ report ‘ on ‘ world ‘ news.

This is simply a misguided lame attempt at feigning some sort of insiders edge on what’s going on around the world.

Knock, knock is anybody in there…the ” real ” American people and 23% of liberals aren’t fooled by you having a guy or gal with a Middle Eastern accent spew your left wing bomb thrower / Obama regime talking points.

In fact,just the opposite is true.

PS: Still nothing from either one of these two companies when it comes to hiring ” the blacks ” as Trump would say. I wonder why that is? Maybe Andy Cooper or Chris Matthew’s could do a hard hitting expose’ ion this topic……nah.

Enhanced interrogation?

Wearing those burqas does make it tough when they put them in a line up.

Do you think at this point in time I would trust the Pakis.

They (the Pakis) have interrrogated the wives of Osama bin Laden and I would bet that they have told them, when the Americans come to ask you questions,do not tell them anything importants.

The Pakis would advise them to answer the Americans in such a manner:
Tell them my husband nevers speaks to me of such things, for as you know I am a lowly wife.
When Osama had visitors we were never permitted to enter that part of the mansion.

That’s probably true. As for trusting the Pakis, we don’t, at all. So much so that as opposed to telling them anything, at any time, about the operation, we were officially ready to shoot it out with them.
Probably NOT wrong

Ain’t this some shit. Probably had to do his own laundry and ironing
and make his own bed. And he had THREE wives? Henpecked X 3 looks like to
me!
That was meant to rhyme this time.
So was that :-)

Whatever they do, just don’t waterboard them. That’ll only get the Bin Laden ball-taste out of their mouths.

I’d like to know how YOUR life has changed since 2008. How much has this government affected YOUR life? Aside from gas prices (which Obama does not control). Aren’t you like a college student with everything paid for? Prob have health insurance right? Yet you keep running your mouth…. “Obama is a gay muslim racist terrorist” in every post you type.. don’t you get tired of hearing yourself at some point?

In fact,just the opposite is true.

Yes. When in doubt, shoot them in the head. After all, they might have a bomb.

Thinking of OBL’s home life makes me sick to my stomach.

I suspect Fareed is right, after all he was probably the last person to speak to OBL

The United States should colonize from the North Pole, out past the caribbean, then down south below Mexico and then cut off the rest of the world. Oil goes to $35.00 a barrel and our defense budget gets cut in half. What would stop us then? Oh yeah, forgot about the stinkin’ Demo’Crupts.

LMFAO! heheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheh

And if these ladies don’t talk, put bags on their head and waterboard the crap out of them! Whata say righties!

It doesn’t matter who the hire in the MSM. Just as it does not matter who this inneffectual, effeminette president’s people ‘ ask pretty please ‘ ( interrogate ), Barack is still getting kicked decisively to the curb next year and there’s not a damn thing anyone can do to change that fact………NOTHING!
MrTPar_taY

These two ‘mopes look like low-rez imitation humanoids. Maybe I’ll wake up and America will be the country where Americans are really American and not Demo’Crupt freaks making the rest of us want to puke-please, please somebody pinch me.
