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.
This April 1998 file photo shows exiled al Qaida leader Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan. A person familiar with developments on Sunday, May 1, 2011 says bin Laden is dead and the U.S. has the body.Two
Bin Laden couriers were killed, as was one of Osama Bin Laden's son, as was a woman reportedly used as a shield by one of the men.
Other women and children were present in the compound, according to Pakistani officials, but were not harmed. U.S. officials said that Bin Laden himself did fire his weapon during the fight.

So the Navy Seals, the US military and the CIA take out OBL but in your mind it is Barack Obama who achieved this?
Your mind is PWNED.
Would it be any clearer to you if it was the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man?
PWNED!
I give Zero some props for violating Pakistan's national sovereignty by ordering this raid.
Or this:
The Pakistanis gave up one Muslim Brother (who is in decline anyway) to help boost another Muslim Brother (who is the rising star of the Caliphate).
What better way to boost Global Jihad -- in the long run -- than to boost the power of President Hussein of the United Islamic 57 States of America?
something is not right, we do not have his number two but we go in on the eve of May day.
we ask him to surrender.
we then shoot him in the head where there is no chance of him staying alive.
we then put the body in the sea so as to respect his religion.
what is this crap?
We should have watched him and found the number two, got them at the same time and then brought him back here to question and show the world..
something does not add up
The whole thing was watched in Langley as it happened, I assume they have video.
I think an animal tranquilizer would have worked on Goatface.
Have one or two weapons loaded with them and use them to preserve the perp for questioning.
Where is Zawahiri?
BREAKING: Sharks at seas enjoy dinner with trashed Osama meat. Sharks gave a thumbs up to Navy Seals for throwing nice dinner out of the helicopter.
BREAKING: Fox News reports “Obama” bin Laden dead by mistake lol

Obama will allow the Arab Muslims to conquer Israel. From Temple Hour of Prayer 12 November 2008. Go to www.atlah.org to listen to The Manning Report Live broadcast everyday Monday through Friday from 3PM - 6PM EST
Just like that, thrown in the ocean.........something strange going on.
With Obama as POTUS....hell, I want DNA matches!
You think they are related? (sounds reasonable)
If what we are hearing is true, then IMHO, I would not be surprised if a more consistent scenario is that the US National Command Authority is aware of a massive terrorist strike is already in operation, had been initiated by OSL, and his usefulness as an intel source has been overcome by his threat as an adversary, or as a mechanism to destroy any source which might implicate the Obama Administration.
I’m trying to reason this through as a worldview of what and who the enemy really is, because I do know almost nothing from this Administration is trustworthy.
The death of his couriers appears to have been collateral damage, however, if one were sending a message to other operational adversaries, it probably would have been more favorable for them to have been left alive, to further trail for intel,..or else we already know them.
For the entire operation to have been watched live at the CIA and from the JSOC, took national and theater level planning, cognizance, promotion, approval and grandstanding.
If there were 20-25 SEALs sent in, then the op took more than a week to prepare for 1-2 platoons of SEALs. Maybe 3-6 weeks, granted JSOC can operate on sort notice. Using the Chinooks indicates expedient JSOC logistics.
Maybe assuming complete redundancy, might explain why such a large force was sent in in such an overt fashion.
IMHO, there are many unanswered questions in this truly bizarre report.
I’m getting the impression that this was a very broadcast operation. No covert action involved, unless the covert action accomplished the mission, while what is being reported is the diversion.
“Is any body else experiencing this?”

Only me and about a hundred million of my closest friends.
this is what I do not get
so we know where he is
we go in on the lefts big holiday may day
we then ask him to give up but then shoot him in the head as there is no chance of him being alive
we then get the body and ditch it to honor his religion while his number two is still free and we get no info we might need on money , the paki’s, hideouts etc.
we don’t bring him back and show the world we have him.
ARE YOU FRIGGING KIDDING ME
why not wait as he has been there for some time
find the number two
take them both out at the same time
shoot them and injure them
bring them back and question and let the world see
this all stinks and the media are not doing their job AGAIN
Buried at sea? Sounds like a mob hit. For DNA testing maybe they kept the head.
Nobody wants to host the burial site
+
Islam dictates burial within 24 hours
+
Body in Navy custody
=
Dump body in ocean.
His men were using women as human shields inthe end.
Fitting way for this scumbag to go out.
The Navy Seals should all be decorated for this.
There you go, my friend.
But ask questions like that and you are branded as part of the “lunatic fringe.” Even on this forum, incredibly.
The way I see it, we as a people owed NO RESPECT to Osama.
And NO CREDULITY to Obama.
To be truthful, some of the stuff I’ve been seeing and hearing lately is giving me that “Davey Crockett feeling”:
“Y’all can go to hell...I’m going to(location to be determined later).”
Just got power back after our tornado outbreak last week. Definitely great news to welcome a lot of us back. Proof again that despite it all, we’re still the greatest country with the greatest military on earth!
Because the Muslim world is so much more amenable to scientific fact and reason than the OJ jury.
I’ve had one person say I’m an idiot because I asked why did we not take out the leadership at the same time and as we knew where he was then why not watch till we got his number two.
Also I asked why respect his religion
why not show him to the world and why not injure him to question and get info?
Yes one poster called me a fool, funny how asking questions is now being a fool but sitting in front of the TV watching the MSM and repeating what they say is great.
Even on here there will be some who will not want us to ask questions about this.
Hell even the police go after the Mafia at the same time but these trolls are saying no do not mention that
