It won't be long before the U.S. government connects the dots between Bin Laden and the Pakistani government.

Quote:
Intelligence analysts are sifting through phone numbers and email addresses found at Osama bin Laden’s compound to determine potential links to Pakistani government and military officials while U.S. officials and analysts raise concerns about the safety of Pakistan’s nuclear materials.

According to three U.S. intelligence officials, the race is on to identify what President Obama’s top counterterrorism adviser, John Brennan, has called bin Laden’s “support system” inside Pakistan. These sources sought anonymity because they are not authorized to speak to reporters.
Quote:
Politico first reported this week that CIA Director Leon E. Panetta told members of Congress that bin Laden’s clothing had two phone numbers sewn into it at the time of the raid. Those numbers and other contacts found at the compound are key clues in an effort to determine what elements of Pakistan’s national security establishment provided support to bin Laden and al Qaeda.

The same Goldman Sachs we bailed out with our tax money?

You know... he had to be moving money around quite a bit. I doubt everything was a cash transaction.

Who manages his accounts? Where are they held? I'm thinking a direct line to Dubai.

Yeah..I would agree. Isn't that also where all these outcast dictators ran to as well ? Dubai is the ME's safehaven.

Dubai launders more dirty money than Zurich.
