I'm about to go look the President in the eye, and what I'd like to know, no **** bullshit, is where everyone stands on this thing. Now, very simply, is he there, or is he not **** there?
We all come at this through the filter of our own past experiences. I remember "Iraq WMD" very clearly, I fronted that, and I can tell you the case for that was much stronger than this case.
A ****in' yes or a no.
We don't deal in certainty, we deal in probability. I'd say there's a sixty percent probability he's there.
I concur. Sixty percent.
I'm at eighty percent. Their OPSEC is what convinces me.
You guys ever agree on anything?
Well, I agree with sixty, we're basing this mostly on detainee reporting and I spent a bunch of time in those rooms. Who knows? I'd say it's a soft sixty, sir. I'm virtually certain there's some high value target there, I'm just not sure it's bin Laden.
This is a cluster-****, isn't it?
I'd like to know what Maya thinks...
We're all incorporating her assessment into ours...
A hundred percent he's there. Okay, fine, ninety-five percent because I know how certainty freaks you guys out, but it's a hundred.
