L'Est Républicain reveals report of Ben Laden's death

The French Newspaper L'Est Republicain describes a confidential report from the French secret service that in turn refers to the Saudi secret service who are convinced that Osama Ben Laden died from a severe case of typhoid. He is reported to have been in a remote area along the Pakistanian border that would have meant treatment was near impossible.
The article from L'Est Républicain is referred to in the Washington Post.
