Report: Bin Laden Had $740 and 2 Phone Numbers Sewn Into His Clothes

Politico has uncovered an interesting report emanating from a classified intelligence briefing on Capitol Hill yesterday: Osama bin Laden had 500 euros (about $740) sewn into his clothes along with two phone numbers:

Osama bin Laden had cash totaling 500 Euros and two telephone numbers sewn into his clothing when he was killed — sure signs that he was prepared to flee his compound at a moment’s notice — top U.S. intelligence officials told members of Congress at a classified briefing in the Capitol Tuesday. A White House spokesman said he would not comment on the matter.

Three sources who attended the briefing confirmed the details for POLITICO, and a fourth source said he had been told the same thing outside Tuesday’s meeting. A White House spokesman said he would not comment on the matter.

Report: Bin Laden Had $740 and 2 Phone Numbers Sewn Into His Clothes

The revelation reportedly came after CIA director Leon Panetta was asked why he thought bin Laden wasn’t more heavily guarded. Apparently, he was more disposed to “flight” than “fight,” and officials believe he was constantly ready to flee at a moments notice.

“If American officials believe bin Laden thought he’d get tipped off before an invasion,” Politico speculates, “that may help explain reluctance on the part of the United States to tell Pakistan of the invasion before it was completed.”

    !And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

    3And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

      I guess you forgot about Bubba Clinton turning down the offer to have OBL delivered to us on a silver platter.
      BO did NOTHING towards getting OBL except giving the okay for the military to carry out its mission, and that permission came only after 16 hours of trying to figure out if it would help his abysmal approval rating in the polls. He is, and always will be, a loser in the annals of United States history. No POTUS was ever more deserving of impeachment.

      You may a point regarding Soros, but the issues are a) he’s never expressed any regret over betraying his own people, and has essentially said, “I was only following orders,” and 2) What his beliefs at the time may have been are irrelevant. Or are you really admitting that only “believers” can give up their lives rather than betray their own group, whatever it is? Millions of now-dead Commie revolutionaries and insurgents were certainly willing to.
