It reads like a detective crime thriller with lots of clouds mishmashed together, all beyond any recognition. There are clouds of conspiracy theories, America's many insurgency plots, opium bars, sleazy hotels and a bit of Afghanistan which seems alien to the whole story. I expected Osama to emerge fro New York instead of Kabul. Maybe its just me with my Muslim background who expected some serious treatment of the 'War against terror' which has turned out to be a completely one way as far as the West is concerned. Why is the the West behind this 'war', or better put, why is the West behind every war? Why can't some due credit given to Osama and his cronies for escalating the stakes in order to warrant huge attacks against Afghanistan and Iraq? Now that Osama is safely dead and his movements main enemies obliterated, can we at least present a factual story of events? Don't we owe that much to the hundreds of thousands of innocents killed on both sides?
