Obama with high level team
Washington, May 3: This was one reality show that was watched by the President of United States of America and his core inner circle from the national security team intently and with baited breath. Barack Obama together with Vice-President Joe Biden and US secretary of state Hillary Clinton watched the military operation in Osama Bin Laden"s hideout keenly. A carefully orchestrated operative, this was one mission that they wanted to go smoothly since it involved the most wanted terrorist in the world and the leader of the dreaded al Qaeda.

According to images released by the White House website that showed Obama along with key staff in his administration watching the turn of events live through satellite that showed Osama being gunned down. A woman who was used as a human shield along with two others was also killed in the ambush by the Navy Seals.

The proceedings were recorded by a video camera attached to the helmet of a Navy Seal. Osama was apparently shot in the left eye. After training his guns on the target a second shot was fired to confirm death, most likely on the chest to confirm death.

The news would have definitely brought a lot of cheer for the Obama administration with counter-terrorism official John Brennan saying, “There was family at that compound, and there was a female who was, in fact, in the line of fire that reportedly was used as a shield to shield bin Laden from the incoming fire."

The extremely daring act was carried out by the Elite troops from the US Navy Seals in a full-fledged assault lasting less than 40 minutes that killed the dreaded Osama Bin Laden.
