Liar liar pants on fire, Pakistan. How could they miss THIS?
The compound is only 8 times bitter than anything else out there. I am curious. Did our guys land inside or outside the walls?
If I were a betting woman, I would say Pakistan has known where Bin Laden was been all along. The compound is new as of 2006. Mystery palace?
IIRC Cargo had been saying for some time now that he was probably in Paki and that our reluctance to engage in combat operations in Paki was impacting the (OBL) mission.
That Mr. Obama ordered a team in – basically saying FU to Paki – to take him out deserves credit.
It also shows you that assinations are still on the table.
Waterboarding gets results.
AMERICA F*K YAH!
This arial looks like 10131 Lomond Dr. compared to every other home in WestGate of Lomond. 🙂
marin-Assisinations should NEVER be taken off the table.
I understand the SEAL team landed on the roof — came down from the choppers on ropes, just like in the movies.
Of course, when they make the movie, the Seals will be coming via a HALO jump from space, and will leave with the body via fusion hang gliders to a circling stealthy zeppelin……
and someone will leave an ACE of Spades……
That reminds me…I can mark off UBL on my deck of cards……
@cargosquid
Thanks for the reminder about the cards. The Mr. and I must mark off our decks this evening.
We went to the first baseball game played after 9/11 at Camden Yards. People thought we were crazy to go to that game, but we did NOT. We felt proud as did everyone at the ballpark that night as you could see aircraft keeping a constant eye on CY. On the way out of the park that night there were great OBL t-shirts being sold on the streets. Mr. Laf got one with OBL in crosshairs and WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE across the top. He got out medical tape last night and taped over wanted and alive, and it was ready to wear to work today. 🙂
On the first anniversary of 9/11, we flew out of Dulles. Then our friends told us they knew for sure we were crazy. We got on the plane and never thought twice about it. Made it Fla. safely and enjoyed my second family and an awesome KISS & Aerosmith concert.
Cargo, tell the ace of spades story for us civvies, please. I don’t remember the significance.
I don’t have personal experience with this, but, at one time, I think during the Vietnam war, some of the combat teams would leave an Ace of Spades on a high value target that they had killed.
Then Hollywood picked it up and it became a cliche.

“Former Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf on Monday accused the U.S. of violating his country’s sovereignty by sending in special forces to kill Osama bin Laden.”
You know, the guy that was supposed to have de facto military dictatorial control over the country when that compound was built.
Dear President Musharraf,
Bite me.

The ariel photo isn’t the correct compound. The coordinates are: 34 10’09” N 73 14’33” E
Paste it into Google Earth and fly there.
