No.1 - “Bin Laden, according to a briefing on Monday, used his wife as a human shield and she was killed. By Tuesday, the White House reversed that: she had not been used as a human shield and she was not dead.”

No.2 - “The other point of discrepancy was the initial briefings that stated Bin Laden resisted and was killed in a “firefight”, which suggests he had been armed. The White House insisted he had resisted, without saying how, but said he had no gun.”

My Comments: If people had challenged the US versions on these points a couple of days ago when Bin Laden was captured, they would have been dismissied as conspiracy theorists.

It is time people both in the US and Pakistan stop believing their govts stories at face value and think and question thmeselves, without being accused of believing in cospiracies or holding a bias.

What I read was one of his wives ran either towards the NavySeal or in front of OBL and was shot in the leg delibrately in order not to kill her.

The other point I read was “OBL was unarmed but there are ways of resisting without a gun”.

Don’t know exactly what these mean but I do think you are seeing too much minor variations in press accounts. Don’t jump to conclusions!
