#6  News reports from a week or two ago said it was an abandoned COP. Per McChrystal's plan to reinforce the population centers. Personally, I would have preferred the US Army booby trapped it and had air strike plans ready.

#5  The first cut and the second are not related, though it is joined up to give that appearance. This looks to be a COP abandoned in good order, with little or nothing left behind that was of any use to Johnny T.

#1  Very, um, impressive.

And a drone wasn't positioned for post-celebration cleanup why...?
