That's really not what's being reported. The compound burnt their own trash, had no internet or telephones, 15+ foot walls, and limited windows. Sounds more like a fortified hole. Pakistan is a mess. We only deal with the country because it is the lesser of the other evils. If Pakistan is shown to be directly involved they're a target for terrorism and they have to live there long after. Many Pakistani's citizens see the US as against Islam, so it is also a political problem. So we pay bilions to a country with a corrupt government, and its citizens hate us.
