President Obama is set to make an statement any moment, but the news is that Osama Bin Laden is dead, and that the United States has his body.
President Obama said that Osama was shot and killed today in a Special Forces raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan. No US casualties, and Osama's body was recovered.
Why did it take so long to kill Osama bin Laden after intelligence reports said they spotted him last August?
ReplyDeleteIsn't it interesting that President Barack Obama last Thursday, April 28, 2011, introduced a reworked national security team. U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan-designate Ryan Crocker; top commander-designate for U.S. forces in Afghanistan, Marine Corps Lt. Gen. John Allen; CIA Director-nominee Gen. David Petraeus; Defense Secretary-nominee Leon Panetta; outgoing Defense Secretary Robert Gates; National Security Adviser Tom Donilon.
Why would Gen. David Petraeus be named the CIA Director?
Why was Leon Panetta named Director of the CIA? His only time in intelligence was a two year period as an Army intelligence officer between 1964 and 1966.
Is Leon Panetta going to help or hinder the CIA?
