Al Arabiya video shows Bin Laden’s widows in their detention place.(AlArabiya).Al Arabiya television has aired a video showing the widows, children and grandchildren of former al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden inside a villa in Islamabad where they were serving a jail sentence for illegal residency in the country. A Pakistani court had sentenced Bin Laden’s three widows and two of his daughters to a month and a half in prison for illegal residency and ordered the government to arrange their repatriation. One widow is Yemeni and the other two are Saudi. Their lawyer Muhammad Aamir said the period of detention began on March 3, when they were formally arrested on charges of illegal entry and residency in Pakistan and that they would continue to be held at their villa in Islamabad. The detention place appeared to be heavily fortified. Bin Laden and his wives were living with eight of their children and three employees in Abbottabad, where he was attacked and killed by U.S. Special Forces on May 1, 2011. Pakistani Interior Minister Rehman Malik has said previously that the children not involved in the case were free to leave Pakistan or could stay with their mothers for the duration of the trial.Read and see (video) the full story here.

"Osama's Abottabat" - Hindus stall Hollywood film shoot in India recreating bin Laden’s hideout.

"Osama's Abottabat" - Hindus stall Hollywood film shoot in India recreating bin Laden’s hideout.(BM).NEW DELHI (dpa): Right-wing Hindu activists on Friday disrupted the shooting of a film by Hollywood director Kathryn Bigelow’s recreating Osama bin Laden’s Pakistan hideout in the Indian city Chandigarh, news reports said.
Bigelow is making a movie on the US Navy Seals who tracked and killed the al-Qaeda leader in the Pakistani city of Abbotabad. She has chosen to set her movie in Chandigarh, capital of the northern Indian state of Punjab, IANS news agency reported.
The Oscar-winning director’s crew was forced to cancel shooting and move cameras after demonstrations by activists of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (World Hindu Council) in Manimajra town on the outskirts off ChandigarhThe VHP activists disrupted the shooting and removed Pakistani flags put up to recreate streets in Abbotabad where the Navy Seals killed bin Laden on May 2, 2011.
“They are showing Chandigarh as Pakistan. This is not acceptable in any terms. Why should a place in India be converted to look like Pakistan? We will never allow Pakistan flags flying at places in the city,” Vijay Singh Bhardwaj, a leader of the Hindu organization, was quoted as saying.
Activists dispersed after local police officer Rajesh Shukla assured them that Pakistani flags would not be permitted at the shooting locations.Bigelow later said they would not be using the flags, the report said.South Asian neighbors India and Pakistan have a history of bitter relations and have fought three wars since their independence from British rule in 1947.Oscar winner Bigelow’s crew has been shooting in the area since Wednesday.The feel of a Pakistani town was created in Manimajra and a busy market area in Chandigarh with Urdu signboards.“Given the security environment in Pakistan and the strained US-Pakistan relations, too many risks were involved in shooting the film inside that country,” IANS quoted a crew member as saying.
Bigelow’s film Zero Dark Thirty or ZD30 is expected to be released by the end of the year, the reports said.Hmmm....."By the end of the year" meaning before November...Will they give Obama dolls at the exit of the movie theatre?Read the full story here.More here.

Two Bibles 'containing terror codes' found hidden in Bin Laden compound as it is demolished.

Two Bibles 'containing terror codes' found hidden in Bin Laden compound as it is demolished.(DM).Pakistani security officials have found two copies of the Bible at the house where Al-Qaeda chief Osama Bin Laden was killed.
The Christian holy books were discovered this week when demolition crews were sent in to tear down the compound in Abbottabad.
They were so well hidden that security personnel had previously overlooked them.It is thought the English-print editions contain coded clues to future terror attacks, The Sun reported.
Pakistan's ISI security service also found two radio sets in a final sweep of the compound before demolition.
The English-language Bibles - a bizarre find in the home of the world's most famous Islamic fundamentalist - contained pages that are folded-over and highlighted texts.
An ISI commanding officer told The Sun: 'The Bibles were in English and we cannot be sure why they were there. These copies were found as we checked the rooms for the final time before demolishing the building.
'The radios are in working condition and will be given with the Bibles to the investigators. Some pages were folded and we will see later what was of most interest to Bin Laden.
'Maybe he was looking for teachings of jihad.'
Bin Laden was killed at the compound by U.S. Navy SEALs last May after the biggest manhunt in history.On Tuesday, reports that bin Laden had been in contact with members of Pakistan’s spy agency, according to secret emails published by Wikileaks, had been rebuffed by a Pakistani military spokesman.
An email, which was sent by an analyst at a global intelligence firm, Stratfor, suggested that up to 12 officials in Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) had known of the al-Qaeda leader’s hideout
But spokesman for the army, General Athar Abbas, said the allegations surrounding the ISI were baseless. “They are nonsense and not credible,”Hmmm.....Let me guess the highlighted passage was:" Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword." ~ Matt 26:52.Read the full story here, more here.
