Here are the coordinates to the house where he was killed in Abbottabad, Pakistan. You can see it on Google Earth. This will put you right on the rooftop. Biggest spread in the area. Bill T.

73 14' 33.20" E
Elevation 3990 ft.

The "deg" threw off Google maps. Try this string:
34 11' 15.82" N 73 14' 33.20" E
South of the compound is a very nice sports complex with Olympic swimming pool and several soccer fields.
Look west of the fields and are those shooting ranges?

From billt's latest link:
caption of one of the pictures...
Peace: A woman makes a sign for peace as she celebrates among the crowds who chanted 'USA, USA' outside the White House shortly after Obama made the announcement
Apparently they forgot that a "peace sign" was originally V for VICTORY!
English press lean to the left much?

Probably, I haven't seen the imagery yet to verify. The compound was realitively close to a Pakistani military academy so ranges wouldn't be that odd nearby.
For somebody that was trying to "hide" that compound and the fact it had no internet/telephone feed sure was a "clue."
