That site is an embarrassing low-lite to the USA-hating Pakis, not because Bin Laden ‘hid’ there but because we came and snuffed him there. Demolishing it under the cover of darkness only emphasizes that to us. Dumbasses.

Are they building a monument on that site?

@gastorgrab: I’d guess they’re putting in a memorial pool.:-)

The Politico article did not tell the truth about why it was torn down.
“The compound attracted hundreds of visitors daily soon after bin Laden’s death and officials feared his final hiding place could become a shrine or a tourist spot unless the military destroyed it.”

….become a Shrine?
Ehhh Gads. While they are tearing it down, maybe throw in a heap of those korans to be found.
