Abstract
Much of the discussion about the hunt for and killing of Osama bin Laden has focused on the remarkable abilities of the U.S.
Special Operations Forces who carried out the raid. Accounts by journalists
and others revealed more than was previously known about the Navy
SEALs who were involved, and sparked complaints by critics that the
Barack Obama administration had leaked sensitive information in order
to portray its own actions in a positive light.1 Terrorism experts have
debated whether the killing would weaken al Qaeda, and what it would
mean for the future of international terrorism.
