Bin Laden's...compound: Marijuana plants grew near hideout
Mail Online ^ | May 4, 2011 | Daily Mail Reporter

High-strength marijuana plants have been found just yards from the luxury home of slain terror chief Osama Bin Laden.

Hundreds of the exotic green flower have flourished for a number of years on the border of the war lord's secret compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

Despite being a short walk from a military training academy dubbed 'Pakistan's Sandhurst', the illegal crop had remained undiscovered.

But hundreds of officials have descended on the busy town this week after Bin Laden was blasted in the brain by U.S. Navy Seals.

An American reporter noticed the pungent line of plants growing in the dry fields surrounding the five-metre high concrete walls.

CNN's Nic Robertson showed to the camera the marijuana hidden alongside other crops including cabbages and potatoes.

The discovery raised the possibility that Bin Laden may have been a regular smoker of the 'weed' strain of the plant.

Pot and delusional thinking (not to mention anger) are more common than some are willing to admit. Osama also believed in manmade global warming. Take your point about Obama too.

I have noticed that the chronic users get something similar to PMS when they run out of their stash...

The shit grows wild all over Pakistani!!! It is not illegal there and wild poppy probably grows on the golf course. But then the dummy’s in the media probably do not know what those pretty flowers are.

” luxury home “?
This fool need to take a drive through Beverly Hills if he thinks Bin Laden lived in luxury. He lived in a large crap house.

Agreed, not much of a story here. Marijuana grows wild everywhere in AfPak, China, India, especially in the road ditches.

In N India, Jammu & Kashmir, workers are paid to walk through the road ditches and roll the leaves in their hands. When their hands get covered in the THC laden "tar" it's peeled off and sold in golf ball size lumps in every market place. Their versions of a drug store sell it openly.

Never ever, ever smoke that black stuff. The difference there and here is if you wish to set around and smoke and die no one gives a damn and you die. Here the bastards want to smoke and have the rest of the people cloth and feed them and provide with some ugly fat hog to get it on with.

WTF?

Is there a coherent message in there somewhere, or have you been walking along ditches rubbing your hands on pot leaves?
