60 f-16 is around 10 billion USD. You seriously think USA will pay 10 billion USD for capture or death of osama?
USA spent ONE TRILLION dollars in the Afghan war
And the only satisfaction it has achieved is that OBL was killed
The Taliban have been dislodged but the war rages on
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now imagine that OBL would have never been found
The Whole one trillion dollars was a waste
And if OBL had been found earlier ; as soon as he entered Pakistan
the US troops could have withdrawn earlier
OBL stayed in Pakistan for FIVE years
So suppose he was killed in 2006 ; US troops could have withdrawn
in December 2008 ; they FINALLY withdrew in 2014 December
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now do the MATHS
SIX Divided by THIRTEEN = 0.46
Let us round it to 0.4
0.4 * 1000 = 400
SO US could have saved at least 400 Billion dollars if OBL had been killed earlier
Now JUST FIVE percent of 400 Billion is 20 Billion dollars
So Pakistan could have easily claimed at least 20 Billion dollars as a REWARD
for KILLING OBL earlier
