President of the United States (U.S.), Barack Obama, make sure that Osama bin Laden had been killed in Pakistan. However, Obama did not specifically reveal how the leader of al-Qaeda terrorist network that can be killed, in addition to simply stating that he was killed in a firefight with U.S. Special Forces, which launched last week.
U.S. mass media, using anonymous sources in the intelligence and the government, gives an idea of how Osama could be tracked and killed after being hunted in the last ten years.
According to MSNBC news stations, all of it stems from the name of a courier of Osama. Sources in the U.S. presidential office (White House) early Monday revealed that the hunt for Osama has been started since the tragedy of 11 September 2001 (9 / 11), events that lift the name of Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda network into the world spotlight.
The hunt that eventually led to the end of last year, when the intelligence team detected a camp in Pakistan.
"From the beginning we detected bin Laden as a threat, the U.S. and then gather information about people in the circle of bin Laden, including his personal couriers," said a senior White House official, who gave background information to the press, quoted by MSNBC.
In 2007, U.S. intelligence finally got the original name of the courier. Two years later, as expressed MSNBC, the U.S. intelligence team marks a number of areas in Pakistan, where the operation of the messenger and his siblings. "They're very careful, this makes us confident that we were on the right track," said the source.
In August 2010, U.S. intelligence discovered "their home in Abbottabad," a remote area. According to ABC news station, Abbottabad is a city of 90,000 inhabitants, located in the Valley Orash. The distance is about 64 km from the north of the Pakistani capital, Islamabad.
Osama hunt operation went smoothly, except when there is a mechanical problem with a U.S. helicopter. According to the source for news station ABC News, U.S. Navy special forces, Navy Seals, engaged in hunting down bin Laden operation. Two U.S. helicopters moved into the compound on Sunday morning, May 1, 2011, to 2 at around 1:30 local time.
As much as 20-25 Navy Seals special forces were under the control of Joint Special Operations Command. In cooperation with the CIA's intelligence agency, they stormed into the camp. Crossfire between U.S. forces and Osama and his followers are not inevitable.
"This operation is performed a small team that is designed to minimize the damage extensive. Our team has been in the vicinity of the camp for less than 40 minutes and found no local authorities," said the source.
Osama probably participate in the crossfire. "Bin Laden killed in the crossfire when our team went into camp," the U.S. official said.
Is Osama could fire, asked reporters. "He fought for our troops and he was killed in the crossfire," the official statement. He at least has a gunshot wound in the head. No mention, how many gunshot wounds that killed Osama bin Laden.
In the shootout, four adult men were killed. They are Osama, his son, and two couriers. An adult female was killed, allegedly used as human shields. Several other women injured. However, their names are not disclosed.
Special forces then took the body of Osama to be checked and then convinced that it is a terrorist leader who has been hunting the U.S. and its allies.
