@alibhai ----- Your views are quite interesting and new to me --- something of which I was not accustomed to. Let me rephrase your post into my own words ,
"Pak-American relations in both Afghan wars were actually an alliance of a covetous syndicate to pull a fast one."
These lines insinuate and portray Osama as an American stooge to fulfill a long-term American plan. This is how it goes --> Osama goes into the lap of Taliban ---> Osama helps them and becomes indispensable after assassinating Masoud ---> In this context Taliban refuse his hand over to Americans ---> This becomes a pretext of attacking Afghanistan.

The world view is that 9-11 was done by saudi citizens inspired/guided by osama. Osama was under protection of taliban regime and had commander massoud assasinated to dig further into the good books of his hosts before the americans came asking for him. Maybe the taliban could have averted this war by handing over Osama. Maybe not. All academic now.
