bad luck to some extent and lack of cooperation from CIA due to some mounting distrust after Musharaf was forced to reign. also incompetency. but CIA did ensure afterwords that there was no collusion by Pakistan in hiding OBL, had that been the case then things would have been very bad for Pakistan from American side. (although TTP and AL Qaeda slayed thousands of Pakistanis and started a campaign of daily bombings blaming Pakistani state in helping Americans to kill the OBL)
his house was marked out as suspicious in the past was was checked few times when he was not there. so it was put as a suspected hideout of some terrorists. the information was shared with CIA and also the suspected activities of the courier. the out of Pakistan activities of the courier were only known to CIA who connected the dots and at some moment decided to keep the information to themselves, tried their own clandestine operations and got a 80% confirmation of the guy through satellite and ground surveillance
he didnt build the "mansion", calling that house with high walls a mansion is a joke. did you see the pictures of that shit place? there was hardly anything luxurious about it. and high walls were spinned by international media as an oddity but its a traditional architecture in the tribal culture. we have high boundary walls and two sections of property, public and outside guests and then inner section for personal family and friends
please refer to this unrelated house in Khyber agency for example and note over 15 feet tall outer walls. you are currently inside the outer rim of the property that has cattle, vehicles and a small 2 room anexy for the general public coming to visit the occupants.
the gate my dear, leads to the inner section of the property. again the walls are high. you walk in there or the gate an be opened for the vehicles to take the females next to the inner section of the property.
moving on, a "modern" property in Peshawar.
notice the boundary wall is up to ten feet. with reinforced double gates and then after that you get access to living section of the property. there is nothing sinister about it, its a typical house in our country where large familes live together and they value their privacy and due to tribal rivelry they have some passive and active defence. they even have watch towers.

house where Osama was found was not built by him
he didnt stand there directing what to do. it was an incomplete double story building which resembled a place of squatters, full of rubbish, and manure from the animals .. I encourage you to have a look of some pictures of the property and judge by the clutter there if it deserves to be called a 10 Million dollar mansion as CNN claimed it to be hahaha.
how did Osama get there? well I explained already that he must have used the cover of millions of IDPs. why did he stay unnoticed for 1 and a half years? we dont know, these kind of people are like rats, masters in keeping themselves hidden while low brained morons blow themselves up in their name. maybe he didnt live there that long?
or maybe he lived there since he escaped from Tora Bora when American and Northern alliance forces scandalously allowed the Al Qaeda and Taliban top brass to escape. his fate was to come and spend his last moments in Abbotabad, thinking he will be safe deep inside Pakistan. but he was mistaken.
now as far as the "Army garrison" town tag on Abbotabad is concerned.. check this video I took few years back after the operation. its a transit town with road links to tribal areas and rest of Pakistan. its north some military bunker with bared wire where Osama was rubbing shoulders with ISIS and Army generals, the place has our military academy yes, but that academy is a size of a town itself so anyone living in Abbotabad can claim to be stone throw away from the academy.. too bad that the cadets there was busy training instead of looking at thousands of properties around them to check if Osama was there.. our bad sorry
