New Delhi: Union Minister Arun Jaitley on Wednesday said that if USA could kill terror outfit Al Qaeda's chief Osama bin Laden in Pakistan itself, so could India, referring to the IAF's airstrike on JeM's terror camps in Pakistan in the wee hours of Tuesday.
Jaitley was mentioning the US Navy SEALs' operation where it killed Laden in his home in Pakistan's Abbottabad in 2011. He said that if US could enter Pakistan and kill Laden, India could also bring down JeM chief Masood Azhar.
"I remember when the Navy SEALs of US took Osama bin Laden from Abbottabad... can't we do the same? This used to be just an imagination, a desire, a frustration, a disappointment. But today this is possible," he said at Clean Ganga Movement event organised here.
"A week is too long a time in politics. The way the nation has rallied behind us in the past one week, it seems like a week slipped by too quick," he said referring to the February 14 Pulwama terror attack by the JeM in which 40 CRPF troopers were killed.
