A series of pictures of Osama Bin Laden's fortress in Zazi in the Paktia
province can be found on

http://www.afghanan.net/kabul/page2.htm

Apparently this fortress was built for American money and with American
technical assistance. It is built to withstand any air attack except
nuclear bombs. It's surrounded by one of the deadliest mine fields in
Afghanistan. It is equipped with satellite dishes and all communciations
systems. 

Interestingly there seem to be a lot of web designers in Paktia
province. See for example

That's a bit strange, as the Taleban government has prohibited the
Internet.
Could this be a Trojan horse, intended as a weapon in a coming digital
war?
