President Barack Obama on the preparation and execution of the plan to kill Osama bin Laden. https://cbsn.ws/3kyvQRG
Osama bin Laden was a prominent figure in the global war on terrorism, best known as the founder and leader of al-Qaeda, the terrorist organization responsible for the September 11 attacks in the United States. Here are some key points about him:
Osama bin Laden was born in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in 1957.
He came from a wealthy family and was well-educated, studying economics and management at King Abdulaziz University in Jeddah.
In the 1980s, he joined the mujahideen fighting against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan, and he helped to set up al-Qaeda in 1988.
Bin Laden was known for his anti-Western views and his calls for jihad against the United States and its allies.
In 1998, he issued a fatwa calling for attacks on Americans and their allies, and he was suspected of being involved in a number of terrorist attacks before 9/11.
After the 9/11 attacks, the United States launched a massive manhunt for bin Laden, and he went into hiding in Afghanistan and later in Pakistan.
In 2011, U.S. Navy SEALs raided bin Laden’s compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, and killed him. His body was later buried at sea.
Bin Laden’s death was a significant blow to al-Qaeda, but the organization remains active and continues to carry out attacks around the world.
Bin Laden’s legacy is complex, and his actions have been widely condemned. Some view him as a hero and a martyr, while others see him as a terrorist and a murderer.

If anyone tried to imagine what a highly skilled, ruthless assassin might look like, Robert O’Neill’s image would not spring to mind. But beyond his friendly face and benign demeanour, O’Neill is a man who has spent much of his adult life learning to kill. In May 2011, every bit of the U.S. Navy Seal’s training was tested when he lined up the western world’s greatest single enemy, Osama bin Laden, in his gunsights. O’Neill didn’t flinch – he pulled the trigger. As Liam Bartlett discovered, hearing his story is chilling enough, but even more worrying are the latest expert warnings that bin Laden’s death, far from killing off al-Qaeda, has spurred the terrorists on to greater evil.

Suroosh Alvi of VICE travels to Bin Laden’s infamous compound to see what people really think about living next to America’s most vilified fugitive. Unsurprisingly, their concern lies less with the proximity of Bin Laden than the chaos that his death has sparked. Although the controversy over whether or not Pakistan was harboring Bin Laden and the “trust deficit” is the primary focus for the American media, Pakistani news is busy covering the onslaught of violence that has broken out since the May 2nd raid. The people have seen a marked increase in American drone attacks, while the Taliban continues its retaliation with a relentless wave of suicide bombings. Anti-American sentiment has never run higher and this turbulent nation clearly has bigger issues than Bin Laden’s death to contend with.

34 Seymour Hersh Details Explosive Story on Bin Laden Killing & Responds to White House, Media Backlash
Four years after U.S. forces assassinated Osama bin Laden, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter Seymour Hersh has published an explosive piece claiming much of what the Obama administration said about the attack was wrong. Hersh claims at the time of the U.S. raid, bin Laden had been held as a prisoner by Pakistani intelligence since 2006. Top Pakistani military leaders knew about the operation and provided key assistance. Contrary to U.S. claims that it located bin Laden by tracking his courier, a former Pakistani intelligence officer identified bin Laden’s whereabouts in return for the bulk of a $25 million U.S. bounty. Questions are also raised about whether bin Laden was actually buried at sea, as the U.S. claimed. Hersh says instead the Navy SEALs threw parts of bin Laden’s body into the Hindu Kush mountains from their helicopter. The White House claims the piece is “riddled with inaccuracies.” Hersh joins us to lay out his findings and respond to criticism from government officials and media colleagues.

Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda:
Lessons from the Abbottabad Documents
The Navy SEAL team that ended Osama bin Laden’s life last May also grabbed a massive collection of digital and physical material from his hideout in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Seventeen of the documents the SEALs swept up that night were released earlier this month by the Combating Terrorism Center at West Point, which also produced a detailed report analyzing and contextualizing the writings by al-Qaeda’s most important leader and several of his top lieutenants. The New America Foundation is proud to host the lead author of that report, Letters from Abbottabad: Bin Ladin Sidelined?, for a discussion of the Abbottabad documents and what they tell us about the past and future of al-Qaeda.

25 jun 2012
Manhunt: The Ten-Year Search for Bin Laden
Roughly ten years after Sept. 11, 2001, Americans celebrated the news that the mastermind behind the terrorist attacks had been found and killed during a raid on his home in Pakistan. Now, one year after Osama bin Laden’s death, Peter Bergen describes the raid with riveting detail in his fourth book on bin Laden, MANHUNT: The Ten-Year Search for Bin Laden from 9/11 to Abbottabad.
But the killing of bin Laden is only one element of a decade-long story – Where did he hide after the 9/11 attacks, and how did he evade capture? How did the SEALs prepare for Operation Neptune Spear? Why did President Obama decide to proceed with the raid despite the recommendations of two of his top three advisors that he not do so?
Come hear Peter Bergen discuss bin Laden’s life and eventual death, as well as America’s decade-long hunt to bring him to justice.

Nelly Lahoud has taken a deep dive into Osama Bin Ladens files and looked at his plans for future attacks in her new book on “The Bin Laden Papers”.

Dr. Lahoud dives into Bin Laden’s files and reveals Bin Laden plans for future attacks, al-Qaeda’s hostility toward countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Pakistan and first-hand accounts of al-Qaeda from 9/11 until the elimination of Bin Laden in 2011.

44 The Bin Laden Papers: How the Abbottabad Raid Revealed the Truth about al-Qaeda
26 apr 2022
Bin Laden’s greatest fear was not capture or death but the revelation of al-Qaeda’s secrets. When he was killed in May 2011, U.S. Special Operations Forces took an additional eighteen minutes to collect Bin Laden’s hard drives on which al-Qaeda’s most secret communications were saved.
In her ground-breaking book, The Bin Laden Papers: How the Abbottabad Raid Revealed the Truth about al-Qaeda, Its Leader and His Family, New America Senior Fellow Nelly Lahoud distills the content of nearly 6,000 pages of Arabic language private communications. For the first time, al-Qaeda’s closely guarded secrets are laid bare, shattering misconceptions and revealing how and what Bin Laden communicated with his associates, his plans for future attacks, and al-Qaeda’s hostility toward countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Pakistan.
To discuss her book, New America welcomes Nelly Lahoud, author of The Bin Laden Papers and a senior fellow with New America’s International Security program. Lahoud is the author of three other books, including The Jihadis’ Path to Self Destruction. She was also lead author of Letters From Abbottabad: Bin Ladin Sidelined?, the Combating Terrorism Center at West Point’s analysis of the first tranche of the documents to be released. The event will be moderated by Peter Bergen, New America Vice President for Global Studies and Fellows, professor of practice at Arizona State University, and author of The Rise and Fall of Osama Bin Laden.
