  • I put this up because I'm a couple of handshakes away from the Gillespie and I think his theory and modeling is just way off the mark here. He's trying to apply a theory that works for birds to Osama bin Laden. Birds don't know they're being hunted, have no reason to hide and no reason to flee their environment. Osama bin Laden is acutely aware he's being hunted. I would love to have been a fly on the wall of the FBI when he presented his case there.

  • @imagii1 Well, actually, he could have been a lot more right. He said bin Laden was in Parachinar and bin Laden was in Abbotabad about 179 miles away. I don't know what you're problem is, but holy cow, get a grip dude.

  • who is this dumb with other dumb

  • 2)the resistance started in the form of war since april 2007 and it is continue till to date.the taliban even suni muslims are dislocated during this war so except govt officials,no suni is there from the last 34 months.probably the osama is suni's sect hero so he can live there where suni's exists.

  • Dear All, 1) on behalf of my knowledge of this area i think that the professor is going mad because i belong to parachinar and the pictures he has shown are in the city of parachinar as every boddy knows that there is complete resistance to taliban by the local Turi Tribes who own this city.

  • I've heard that the kidney dialysis story was bunk.

    Anyway, i don't know that such a tall guy wouldn't be spotted in a densely-populated city.
