The Man Who Killed Osama bin Laden (VIDEO)

If you sat through all 14 hours of “Zero Dark Thirty” to get a picture of what it took to bring down Osama bin Laden, you owe it to yourself the time to watch this video and read this article about the actual man who killed Osama bin Laden.

Enough people connected to the SEALs and the bin Laden mission have confirmed for me that the Shooter was the “number two” behind the raid’s point man going up the stairs to bin Laden’s third-floor residence, and that he is the one who rolled through the bedroom door solo and confronted the surprisingly tall terrorist pushing his youngest wife, Amal, in front of him through the pitch-black room. The Shooter had to raise his gun higher than he expected.

The point man is the only one besides the Shooter who could verify the kill shots firsthand, and he did just that to another SEAL I spoke with. But even the point man was not in the room then, having tackled two women into the hallway, a crucial and heroic decision given that everyone living in the house was presumed to be wearing a suicide vest.

But a series of confidential conversations, detailed descriptions of mission debriefs, and other evidence make it clear: The Shooter’s is the most definitive account of those crucial few seconds, and his account, corroborated by multiple sources, establishes him as the last man to see Osama bin Laden alive.

It’s long and detailed, with interesting bits about the people involved, but without giving away too much. The voices have been changed to protect the identity of the interviewee.
