Punchline Confirmed: Porn Found in Osama Bin Laden's Compound
This probably doesn't jive with Islamic teachings. U.S. officials uncovered "a stash of pornography" on the hard drives taken from Osama bin Laden's hideout in Abbottabad, Pakistan, reports Reuters. Officials couldn't say where in the compound the porn was found, or who viewed it, but it "consists of modern, electronically recorded video and is fairly extensive."

In the days following the raid, when it was reported that the Navy SEALs uncovered a trove hard drives, a popular prediction on Twitter and the blogosphere was porn. Looks like that may have come true. But apparently, this is par for the course, according to U.S. officials.
Three other U.S. officials familiar with evidence gathered during investigations of other Islamic militants said the discovery of pornography is not uncommon in such cases.
