Instead, he was in a house eight times larger than its neighbors, with a seven-foot wall and valued at $1 million.
The house had no phone or television and the residents burned their trash. The house had high windows and few points of access, and U.S. officials concluded it had been built to hide someone.
According to U.S. officials, two U.S. helicopters swept into the compound at 1:30 and 2:00 a.m. Sunday morning.
Twenty to 25 U.S. Navy Seals under the command of the Joint Special Operations Command in cooperation with the CIA stormed the compound and engaged Bin Laden and his men in a firefight, killed Bin Laden and all those with him.

Hide behind a woman, apparently.
Says a lot about how cowardly he really was.
Part of me wants to fry up some bacon in his honor, but, I am also sobered to think of him facing the judgment seat of God without Christ. I am also glad there is a literal Hell for such a one.
BTW, it's harder for me to look at a picture of Obama than Osama. Don't get me wrong, I know what OBL did to us. But BO's picture makes me sick to my stomach. That's amazing. I detest Barack more than Osama. That's saying a lot. Is any body else experiencing this?
The only down side to the entire op is that zero is now on the radio taking credit,soooo puke inducing!!
Know what you mean. But, “we” as in “US”, got this guy. And, people vote their pocketbook or the current occupant would have never won in 2008. So, don’t worry.
Usama Bin Laden Death A Lie CIA Retirement

... one persons idea
Did he buy it from Tony Rezco?
That seems a little fast. One would think that the remains would be examined by several authorities from around the world before disposal. Osama’s fans aren’t going to believe he’s dead.
It went kind of like this.." Yeah rah for America that I hate that I have changed into the not so rich and socialist state. Now here is a piece of five year old meat...now let's all get back to work peons."
Already removed as a possible scam, per YT.
CNN now reporting that OBL’s family (older brother) wants his body “so that he can be buried with his own.”
Maybe this is why the USA is saying they buried him at sea. You know if his family gets the body they will turn the burial site into a shrine.
Im calling complete BS on this whole thing if they buried him at sea. Thats whats on the front page of Fox News.com right now. Buried at Sea. This whole thing officially stinks!!
Me too....but they already “buried him at sea” to satisfy muzzie funeral timetable.
BIG mistake. More interested in satisfying Islam than proving OBL’s demise to the people he wanted to destroy.
Now Zer0 is playing politics using patriotism as his last refuge.
“Sleeping with the fishes” was not a wise decision so I have to believe it came from Zer0, who can screw up a wet dream.
DNA!
We need DNA from the body and proof that it is fresh and not from years ago.
We heard long ago that OBL had doubles. And many people believed the monster was killed in Tora Bora 8 years ago.
How could they dispose of the body so fast? Screw Islam-—we are talking about TERRORISTS!
Grrrrrrrrrr!
I am glad I am not the only one thinking like you do. We have an administration that lies about everything and now we are supposed to believe there was some justification for burying the most sought after body in history immediately at sea!!! Before DNA or evidence of identity of anything!! Same mind set for me. Sorry, but I am just not buying it unless I hear it from a warrior who was there.
Amen to that.
Dumping the body at sea will give rise to “hoax” charges forever.
It will be like Hitler, Martin Borman, and other top Nazis after WWII. Rumors of escape for a generation.
