“I was the only outsider to visit the Abbottabad compound where bin Lad...” — Peter Bergen Quote

“I was the only outsider to visit the Abbottabad compound where bin Laden lived before the Pakistani military demolished it.”

“If the Arab Spring was a large nail in the coffin of al-Qaeda's ideology, the death of bin Laden was an equally large nail in the coffin of al-Qaeda the organization.”

“Between November 23, 2002, and January 11, 2003, al-Qahtani was interrogated for 48 days at Guantanamo more or less continuously, kept awake for much of that time by loud music being blasted when he was falling asleep, doused with water and subjected to cold temperatures, kept naked and forced to perform tricks as if he were a dog.”

“There's a lot of information on Iran in the files and computer discs captured at the Pakistan hideout of Osama bin Laden.”

“If bin Laden is in fact publicly killed, then the US military will find itself standing around with its hands in its pockets, wondering what's supposed to come next.”

“Anfield will sell out if I'm fighting a bin man, genuinely.”
