It was noted by some media outlets that during the compound sweep various electronic storage devices (computers, USB drives, etc.) were seized. This might prove to be the true value of the endeavor if the information contained therein can be recovered.
I will admit to a dichotomy about these events; I am uncomfortable with the chest-thumping, celebratory displays over the death of another human being under those circumstances; but the wise-arse in me wants to assuage that horror with humour.
For example - one news outlet reported that additional, previoiusly unreleased messages from Bin Laden are likely to surface in the coming days - meanwhile in the Arabian sea...
Exactly.
One thing that does surprise me is the collected heads of knuckle proclaiming that the whole thing was theatre of the absurd and Bin Laden was not killed in the attack. Sure - a grand conspiracy that can be undone by the expediency of one person popping up ground-hog style from a hole and waving.
