I don't think anybody doubts that. I think it was just a matter of security if these reports are true that President Obama ordered the attack without informing Pakistan. The fewer the people who know about these things, the better. It's not meant to be a snub. Had he been in Saudi Arabia we probably would have done the same thing. These type of operations depend on absolute secrecy.
your assertion goes wrong here about 'not informing Pakistan'- there was complete blackout for about 3 hours prior to gun shots and blast while the heli maneuvered for about half hour before the shots and the only way I see american troops landing there is by choppers which needs pakistani cooperation.
Secondly and most importantly the heli which crashed is Pakistani confirming pakistani authorities full involvement.
