Sen. Feinstein (D-CA) says she won’t be relying on US intelligence officials alone in finding answers to what the Pakistani government may have known about bin Laden’s whereabouts. She’s tempering yesterday’s remarks questioning the entire US relationship with Pakistan. But she plans on holding her own closed-door, classified hearings into the matter.
“I’m not questioning the aid. It’s just if [bin Laden] lived there for five or six years, I don’t understand them not knowing,” she told TPM. “We all know what it’s like to live in a neighborhood — and that was a big compound in city that was also home to a military academy.”
