I know it Chris, that part struck me too. The warnings were there the whole time. People just thought it was BS. Now this part is interesting too: ""In the past several weeks, U.S. officials have attempted in vain to persuade Pakistani authorities to use their influence with the Taliban to rein in bin Laden. In Washington, officials met with Pakistan's foreign minister, Abdul Sattar, who reportedly told them Pakistan has little power over the Taliban and needs to maintain cordial relations with the group because of Afghanistan's strategic location and long-standing friendship. In Islamabad, meanwhile, the departing U.S. ambassador, William B. Milam, said that he had reiterated American concerns about bin Laden in final courtesy calls on Pakistani officials and Taliban diplomats stationed there. According to news agency reports in Pakistan, Zaeef said Milam had warned him that Washington would hold the Afghans responsible for any attacks by bin Laden, but that Zaeef had "categorically" assured Milam "we would never allow anyone to use our soil for attacks against Americans.""
