Osama Bin Laden Is Dead
According to the Washington Post
Osama bin Laden is killed by U.S. forces in Pakistan
Osama bin Laden, the longtime al-Qaeda leader and chief architect of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States, was killed Sunday by U.S. forces, President Obama announced late Sunday night.
Acting on an intelligence lead that surfaced last August, Obama said he authorized an operation to kill bin Laden, 53, who was hiding in a compound deep inside Pakistan. In a rare Sunday night address to the nation, the president said U.S. forces killed bin Laden during a firefight and had his body, ending a 10-year search for the most-wanted terrorist in the U.S.-led war in Afghanistan.
