They got Osama’s computer files
This should be interesting. It reminds me of the time when I was discussing Hamas with “moderate” Muslim leader Mohammed Elibiary, and he offered to give me Khaled Meshaal’s email address.

UK Muslim leader: “I am appealing publicly to all Muslim communities wherever they may be that there is no backlash” over bin Laden death
What absurdity: this non-Muslim Muslim leader whom all Muslims despised is going to be the cause for their rioting? Pamela Geller observes: “But Obama said Osama bin Laden was ‘not a Muslim leader.’ So why are Muslims in a lather? If he doesn’t represent Islam, why would Muslims go jihad? Such stupidity has no precedent.” […]
Bin Laden given Islamic funeral before burial at sea
