ISLAMABAD — One of Osama bin Laden’s young daughters allegedly told authorities that U.S. forces captured her father alive first, and then killed him in the first few minutes of Sunday’s raid on his compound, senior Pakistani security sources told NBC News.

The NBC sources confirmed an earlier Al Arabiya report that the girl told Pakistani investigators that commandos had captured her father alive and shot him to death in front of the family in the compound. The daughter was part of a group taken away after the raid, the report said. According to an NBC News translation of a broadcast report on the network, a reporter said U.S. forces killed bin Laden ten minutes after they located him.
A senior Pakistani intelligence official, who declined to be identified, earlier told Reuters that the daughter, aged 12 or 13, was one of the people who had confirmed that the suspected mastermind of the 9/11 attacks had been killed by U.S. commandos.
On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney described the chaotic raid, saying the U.S. team “methodically cleared the compound, moving from room to room in an operation lasting nearly 40 minutes,” noting that “they were engaged in a firefight throughout the operation.” A woman offered to sacrifice her life and tried to shield bin Laden, senior Pakistani officials told NBC on Wednesday.
Officials revealed the allegation as questions swirled in Washington about whether Pakistan was complicit in protecting the mastermind of those attacks. Several Republicans and Democrats in Congress have raised the possibility of cutting off U.S. aid to Pakistan. The Pakistani government has denied suggestions that its security forces knew anything about bin Laden’s hideout or failed to spot suspicious signs in a city with a heavy military presence.
In a closed-door briefing for lawmakers Tuesday, CIA Director Leon Panetta said, “Pakistan was involved or incompetent,” a U.S. official said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the private meeting. Pakistan criticized the American raid in its sovereign territory as “unauthorized unilateral action.”
While tensions grew, efforts also were apparent to contain the damage in an important if checkered relationship. The Obama administration pushed back against the talk of punishing Pakistan. So did Republican House Speaker John Boehner, who said, “Having a robust partnership with Pakistan is critical to breaking the back of al-Qaida and the rest of them.”

As for the the residents of the compound taken away after the raid — one of bin Laden’s wives and a number of children — authorities will be interrogated and then they will probably be turned over to their countries of origin, and not the United States, in accordance with Pakistani law, the senior Pakistani intelligence official quoted by Reuters said.

The official said the wife and children were left behind after an American transport helicopter, possibly an MH-60 Sea Hawk, was abandoned because of mechanical problems.
He said there was not enough room for the group on the other helicopters, which were transporting bin Laden’s body, other male captives and the commandos.
As for the whereabouts of the surviving family members, “They are all in safe hands and being looked after in accordance with law,” Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement. “Some of them needing medical care are under treatment in the best possible facilities. As per policy, they will be handed over to their countries of origin.”
Citing a Pakistani security source, Al Arabiya reported that the family members had been taken by helicopter to a military hospital in the city of Rawalpindi, near Islamabad.
Family members inside compound
As Navy SEALs swept through the compound early Monday, they handcuffed those they encountered with plastic zip ties and pressed on in pursuit of bin Laden. After killing the terror leader, his son and two others, they doubled back to move nine women and 23 children away from the compound, according to U.S. officials.
The number of women and children taken from the compound has varied. The New York Times reported the group comprised of nine children ranging in age from two to 12, and three women. The BBC, citing a Pakistani intelligence official, said between 17 and 18 people were present at the time of the attack, and that one of bin Laden’s wives, a daughter and eight or nine other children remained at the location, while U.S. forces took one other survivor — possibly one of bin

Carney said in Tuesday’s briefing that three families lived in the complex: the bin Laden family, one family on the first floor of the same building and another in a second building.
During the operation, one team cleared bin Laden’s house, working its way from the first to the third floor, and a second team cleared the other building.
“On the first floor of bin Laden’s building, two al-Qaida couriers were killed, along with a woman who was killed in crossfire,” Carney said. “Bin Laden and his family were found on the second and third floor of the building. There was concern that bin Laden would oppose the capture operation — operation rather, and, indeed, he did resist.
“In the room with bin Laden, a woman — bin Laden’s — a woman, rather, bin Laden’s wife, rushed the U.S. assaulter and was shot in the leg but not killed. Bin Laden was then shot and killed. He was not armed.”
Asked by a reporter how bin Laden resisted if he was unarmed, Carney said, “I think resistance does not require a firearm. But the information I gave you is what I can tell you about it. I’m sure more details will be provided as they come available and we are able to release them.”

He said that after the operation’s completion, “the noncombatants were moved to a safe location” and bin Laden’s body taken to the USS Carl Vinson; from there he was buried at sea.
Neighbors rarely saw occupants
Neighbors said they knew little about those inside in the compound but bin Laden apparently depended on two men who would routinely emerge to run errands or to a neighborhood gathering, such as a funeral. There were conflicting details about the men’s identities. Several people said they were known as Tariq and Arshad Khan and had identified themselves as cousins from elsewhere in northwestern Pakistan. Others gave different names and believed they were brothers.

Arshad was the older of the two, and both spoke multiple languages, including Pashto and Urdu, which are common here, residents said.
The New York Times, citing a neighbor living 100 yards away from the bin Laden compound, reported that the Khans were in their 30s, married and had young children. Arshad had three and Tariq had four, the unnamed woman told the newspaper.
Those who live nearby said the people in bin Laden’s compound rarely strayed outside. Most were unaware that foreigners — bin Laden and his family are Arabs — were living there.

As in other Pakistani towns, hotels in Abbottabad are supposed to report the presence of foreigners to the police, as are real estate agents. Abbottabad police chief Mohammed Naeem said the police followed the procedures but “human error cannot be avoided.”

Accused rapist performs oral sex on senior?

Rasbert Turner, Star Writer
The case of a St Catherine man who has been charged with rape and indecent assault caused laughter when it was called up in the Spanish Town Resident Magistrate’s Court yesterday.

The man, in his early 20s, is charged with sexually molesting a senior citizen.

The complainant told the court that after the man had sex with her he asked her to perform oral sex and she refused.

It is further revealed by the shocked complainant that the accused got angry and told her “all right, if you nuh want fi dweet to mi, mi will dweet to you den.”

The matter was reported and the investigation resulted in criminal charges being laid against the accused.

Bearing Good Fruit for the Lord

ithout question, one of the most important analogies God has given to us in His Word on the new restored relationship we now have with Him as a result of Jesus dying on the cross for all of us is the vine and branch analogy – where Jesus is the vine and we are the branches.

And not only does this analogy give us a very good visual of what we now have with the Lord, but it also gives us one more important piece of revelation – and this second piece of revelation being given to us by the Lord is what He will be expecting from each one of us once we are fully grafted back into Him. As you will see in the second sentence of this verse, God will now be expecting all of us to produce good fruit for Him.

As we have said numerous times in our other articles, once you get saved and born again through the blood that Jesus has already shed for you, God will now expect you to do something with this new reality and new life that He has now given to you. God will now want you to come and “work” for Him. And if you do, there are other verses that will tell us that God will be rewarding us according to those good works. When you put those kinds of verses next to this one special intense verse, you can tell that God is not pulling any punches.

Here is one of the most important verses in all of Scripture that each and every Christian needs to have a full and complete understanding on:

“I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.

I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.

If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.” (John 15:1-8)

Again, this is one of those verses that really need to be meditated on and chewed on. Notice several things:

1. The first thing Jesus is trying to show us is now that we have been saved through His shed blood, we are now to Him like branches are to a tree. In the third paragraph in this verse, Jesus is now telling us that He is the vine and we are the branches.

And once you really grab a hold of that visual and compare it to the trees that are in our natural surroundings, the first thing you will see is that the branch of the tree cannot live apart from the tree. That branch has to stay completely hooked into and grafted into that tree for it to continue to remain fully alive.

If for whatever reason the branch of the tree ever gets fully disconnected from the tree and falls to the ground, it will wither and die. And once that branch gets fully disconnected from the tree, it can never repair itself again. In other words, that branch cannot get grafted back into the tree. The branch is now permanently cut off from that tree, and from there, it will wither and die.

And again, Jesus tells us the exact same thing will occur to all of us if we do not abide in Him. Jesus says if we do not abide in Him, that this person “is cast out as a branch and is withered.” And from there, that branch is gathered up and thrown into the fire. I believe the word “fire” being used in this verse is talking about hell fire. In other words, if we are not truly abiding in Jesus like the branch is with the vine, we are going to be cast off from Him like a branch can be cut off from a tree, and from there, we will be thrown into hell.

In one simple little verse, God is giving all of us a very strong visual of what we now have in place with Him once we are born again through His Son Jesus. Jesus is now the vine, we are the branches, and God the Father is the vinedresser, and from there, God will expect all of us to continue to abide in Him and His Son Jesus.

Not only is this verse giving us a very strong visual of what we now have with God and Jesus as a result of being born again, but it is now giving us a very dire warning if we should ever want to pull away and disconnect from the Lord. God has made all of us for Himself and He will not be denied. We either graft back into Him and abide in Him, or we will become like a branch that has been cut off from a tree and from there, we will wither and die. This is an all-or-nothing proclamation being made by the Lord.

2. The second thing to pick up from this verse, and this is the part I want to key in on for the rest of this article, is what Jesus says in the second verse above. Once again, here are the exact words in this second verse:

“Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.”

Here is another very extreme verse saying the exact same thing:

“And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.” (Matthew 3:10)

I do not think there is any other way to interpret these two verses other than once we are saved and born again, God is now going to expect something more from all of us with the brand new life He has now given to us – and that something more is that we start producing good fruit for Him.

What exactly is God meaning when He tells us that He wants all of us to start producing good fruit for Him? I believe the word fruit is meaning that God will want us to do good works for Him, with those good works then producing good results and good fruit for Him.

Example – if you are witnessing to another person and you end up getting them saved, then not only did you do a good work with that person by being willing to witness to them in the first place, but you also ended up producing good fruit as a result of getting them saved.

If you are discipling another newborn and they start to really grow in the grace and knowledge of God as a result of your good mentoring efforts, then again, you have just produced good fruit for the Lord.

Here is a list of some of the things I believe God is looking for when He is talking about us producing good fruit for Him in this life. This good fruit God is looking for is going to cover many different areas of our walk with Him.

Be willing to read and study from your Bible so you can grow in the grace and knowledge of God.

Be willing to establish a strong, intimate, personal relationship with God, as this is the number one thing God is looking for from all of us.

Be willing to establish a strong prayer life with God so He can then start to answer your prayers for any specific needs you may have, along with being able to pray for others for any specific needs they may have with the Lord.

Be willing to enter into a full surrender with the Lord so He can then enter you into His perfect plan and destiny for your life. And when you start doing good works in that perfect plan and destiny for your life, then you will start producing good fruit for the Lord.

Be willing to give God a good, solid green light to enter you into a true sanctification process so He can then begin the process of molding and shaping you into the express image of His Son Jesus. This is also where the 9 fruits of the Holy Spirit will be worked and meshed into the core of your personality so you can then start to become the true, sanctified saint God is calling you to become in Him.

Be willing to witness to other people so you can get them saved and born again, especially if the Holy Spirit is leading you to do so.

Be willing to disciple other believers so they too can grow in the grace and knowledge of God.

Be willing to be a good, godly spouse for your mate if you are married, and a good, godly parent for your children if you have children. These two endeavors alone will be very good works and very good fruit that you will be producing for the Lord.

Be willing to help family, friends and strangers with whatever they will need help on.

Be willing to give money to your home church and any other causes God may lead you to give to.

Be willing to be perfectly obedient to the Holy Spirit with whatever He will lead you to do on a daily basis for the Lord.

Be willing to be a part of the Great Commission Command – which is to save, heal, deliver and disciple.

Be willing to walk with any of the 9 gifts of the Holy Spirit if God should ever want to manifest any of these 9 gifts to you. Do not be afraid of these gifts if God would like to manifest some of them to you from time to time, especially if they are being given to you to help someone else out.

Be willing to continue to pray for the salvation of all your close loved ones who have yet to receive Jesus as the Lord and Savior. Be willing to pray for them to the day they either get saved, or to the day they literally die and leave this life for good.

Be willing to take a strong stand for Jesus in our public arenas on hot topics such as abortion, homosexuality, same sex marriages, trying to take Jesus out of Christmas, dark side material like the Harry Potter books and videos, defending the state of Israel and the Jewish people since they are still God’s chosen people, and every major area of our public life where they are trying to take out the basics of our faith such as our schools, judicial systems, and many of our public offices.

Be willing to provide for your own, especially those of your own household, as the Bible says in 1Timothy 5:8 that if you do not do so, that you have denied the faith and that you are worse than an unbeliever.
I could go on and on, but all of the above are some of the things that God will be looking for once we have been grafted back into Him through the shed blood of His Son Jesus.

Once God has fully restored us back to Himself, you can tell by the way the above verse is being worded, that He does not want us sitting around and doing absolutely nothing for Him. In our last article titled, “Bible Verses on Faith,” we gave you one big, whopper verse showing us that our faith in God will be considered dead in His eyes if we do not back up that faith with good works. Once again, here is this verse:

“Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead … Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? … You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only … For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” (James 2:17-26)

Again, this verse is straight-in-your-face and it is all literal language being used by the Lord. He is letting all of us all know in no uncertain terms, that He wants all of us coming to work for Him once we are born again. Our faith in Him now has to be backed up with good works. And if we are willing to do good works and produce good fruit for Him with what time we still have left down here, then we will be appropriately rewarded once we enter into heaven.

Here are 5 good additional verses on the importance that we do good works for the Lord and seek to produce good fruit for Him in this life. Also notice the last three verses are God telling us that He will be rewarding us according to any good works we do for Him down here on this earth.

“Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before unknown men.” (Proverbs 22:29)

This is a faithful saying, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.” (Titus 3:8)

“… and each one will receive His own reward ACCORDING TO HIS OWN LABOR.” (1 Corinthians 3:8)

“And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to everyone ACCORDING TO HIS WORK.” (Revelation 22:12)

“… I am He who searches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you ACCORDING TO YOUR WORKS.” (Revelation 2:23)
Again, all of these verses are really pointing to the extreme importance that we all do something in this life for the Lord, and that something is that we do good works for Him, and from those good works will come good fruit.

Do good works for the Lord, produce good fruit for the Lord, and you can then leave this life with absolutely no regrets and that you lived this life to its fullest for the Lord. And from there, God will highly and appropriately reward you for those good works and good fruit once you enter into heaven to be with Him for all of eternity.

$10,000 Winnings Attributed to OBEAH Spell
Jeannie Hydie, a Missouri resident, says things were going slow for her when she requested an Obeah Spell. “My luck had a fantastic turn for the good,” says Jeannie. “Within two months, I received $10,000 in credit, two job offers and a more happy atmosphere in my home. My husband, children, and I seem to have a closer relationship now. We travelled to several places this summer… and enjoyed each other’s company very much. Thanks very much, CAA.”

Dear CAA, Just wanted to let you know: I was a little skeptical when I ordered an Obeah spell for my husband who was looking for a new job. I really didn’t think it was going to work. Well, the spell was cast on May 24. As each day passed, I became more and more convinced it wasn’t going to work, because I kept sending out resumes for him to different jobs but no one was calling him back. Well, out of the blue a job was offered to him about ten days ago (so, under a month from the time the spell was cast) and he accepted it despite a huge counteroffer from his current job! He will begin his new job on the 15th! Well, you’ve convinced a nonbeliever! Thanks again! Christi B.
Wilmington, NC P.S. – I never told him I had ordered the spell! He still doesn’t know!

Dear CAA, I ordered OBEAH spell in June, I have been told that my spell will cast on July 1st. But guess what happened? What I have asked has already become true!!! It is unbelievable, and totally magic! Thank you very much, CAA. P.W.

Are you ready for an Obeah Spell? If you are, you will instinctively know that Obeah could help you. Merely tell us the one thing you need and let Obeah do the rest. Please be brief and request only one thing at a time.
