Bin Laden's Life Between 2001 and 2011
New information of Bin Laden's location has been emerging since his death and the arrest of his wives. According to one of his wives, bin Laden was united with his family the first time after the 9/11 attacks in the second half of 2002 in Peshawar. After this, bin Laden took his family into rural mountain areas of northwest Pakistan (and very notably, not in the tribal belt where main US attention was focused.) First they stayed in the Shangla district in the Swat valley, where they stayed in two houses for eight to nine months. In 2003 they moved to Haripur, a small town close to Islamabad, where they stayed in a rented house for two years. In mid-2005, Bin Laden and his family moved to Abbottabad.

—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“Life on board a pleasure steamer violates every moral and physical condition of healthy life except fresh air.... It is a guzzling, lounging, gambling, dog’s life. The only alternative to excitement is irritability.”
