A British Islamic think tank said the reported killing of Osama Bin Laden’s killing was “Hollywood scripted.”
The Islamic Republic News Agency reported:
UK-based Islamic thinktank Global Vision 2000 has expressed doubts about the veracity of the reported US killing of Osama bin Laden, which he said benefits specifically President Barack Obama.
“It appears to be a Hollywood scripted story portraying Pakistan, the world’s sole Muslim nuclear power, as the greatest threat to world security so that any type of operation can be mounted against it,” said Global Vision’s managing director Moeen Yaseen.
“The real significance of this ‘psy-op’ was to spread the Global War of Terror into Pakistan. The Pakistan armed forces loyalty is being tested whose side are they on,” Yaseen said.
In an interview with IRNA, he suggested that Monday’s reported assassination showed that “America has asserted its right to unilaterally mount attacks within any sovereign country, any time it likes, without approval from the UN.”
“The significance of this attack has set a blank check precedent for the USA to extend at will its military operations beyond the tribal areas to any city within Pakistan utilising airpower,” he warned.
Yaseen believed that it was avoid embarrassment, whilst officially denying any involvement of knowledge of the attack that Pakistani authorities “leaked reports confirming that the operations could never take place without Pakistan’s intelligence agencies.”
