Hey guys, don't forget to wrap the bodies in pigskins before you put them back.

This just sticks out....

Stogran said the graves were surrounded by electric lights to illuminate them at night.

"The locals told us ... one of them was a very big man and he had received special treatment during his burial," Stogran said.

I saw this site on a CNN report ...its in the boonies....why run electric light for a shrine to ..Bin Ladens' cook??

"Osama bin Laden is approximately 6 foot 5 and we did not find anybody that was 6 foot 5"

Wonder if they checked for two bodies about 3 foot 2 1/2?
