Since bin Laden has gone on to his 72 goats, the Pakistanis have been hard at work trying to pick a scapegoat to blame for his long residence in their front yard. ISLAMABAD: Already a month past the deadline, the Abbottabad Commission braces for further delay in releasing its report as it struggles to determine how and with whose help al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden had been living in Abbottabad for years. The government formed the high-powered inquiry commission last year to investigate the killing of Bin Laden by American commandos in a secret raid on May 2, 2011. Its mandate also includes finding out whether the terror leader was aided by elements from within the secret agencies, as alleged by the West. However, insiders told The Express Tribune on Wednesday that the commission is in a fix over the question of fixing responsibility. “It looks like they can’t and won’t name anybody,” said an official, who is aware of the proceedings You can't really blame them since their is a fairly decent chance that the folks on the commission don't really want to piss off the guys who were hiding him, or are the guys who were hiding him. But you would think they could at least come up with a decent sacrificial lamb (to continue the barnyard references). In the end it doesn't matter, we will keep paying them their nuke geld and getting regularly backstabbed in the process.
