military operation. "They have destroyed the peace of our city and we also believe that they have attacked our sovereignty," he said. The representative of the association of lawyers in Abbottabad wanted to stress that the protesters did not defend bin Laden, but wanted to express their opposition to the U.S.
government. UU. and Pakistan, "a double game and kill a terrorist." The protesters also expressed disbelief at the fact that the leader of Al Qaeda actually live in Abbottabad, a city "quiet and nice" not far from some of the mountain resorts of South Asian country.
