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.
âIt appears to be a Hollywood scripted story portraying Pakistan, the worldâs sole Muslim nuclear power, as the greatest threat to world security so that any type of operation can be mounted against it,â said Global Visionâs managing director Moeen Yaseen.
âThe real significance of this âpsy-opâ was to spread the Global War of Terror into Pakistan. The Pakistan armed forces loyalty is being tested whose side are they on,â Yaseen said.
In an interview with IRNA, he suggested that Mondayâs reported assassination showed that âAmerica has asserted its right to unilaterally mount attacks within any sovereign country, any time it likes, without approval from the UN.â
âThe 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,â he warned.
Yaseen believed that it was avoid embarrassment, whilst officially denying any involvement of knowledge of the attack that Pakistani authorities âleaked reports confirming that the operations could never take place without Pakistanâs intelligence agencies.â
