#1 Didn't the CIC say last week in the news conference?

This makes it sound like the good guys hadn't even hit the showers when the announcement was made.

#2 The size of the compound and the 'extraordinary' security measures taken were dead give-aways that someone like bin Laden would be living there, at least part of the time.
How many other places like that exist in the Muslim world?

#3 The woman was being used as a human shield

#4 Bobby: yeah. I'm trying to figure out when/where they squeezed in the DNA analysis. Purifying and/or amplifying DNA is slow, no way to short-cut. Even with decent lab equipment, it would take at least 24 hours. I'm assuming confidence was high enough that the announcement was made anyway, while the analysis is still forthcoming?
