Bin Laden's Killing-A Trump Card Of Prime Importance!

The mastermind of 9/11 attacks and the chief of al-Qaeda, Osama bin Laden has been killed in a mansion near Pakistani capital of Islamabad along with some of his family members in a high-precision surgical strike carried out by US Navy seals after an actionable US intelligence, according to CIA sources. This was later disclosed by the US President Barak Obama in his nationally televised address. The President said, "Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. A small team of Americans carried out the operation with extraordinary courage and capability. No Americans were harmed. They took care to avoid civilian casualties. After a firefight, they killed Osama bin Laden and took custody of his body."  It is still unclear who else were killed in the operation and the fate of No. 2 in al-Qaeda Ayman  al-Zawahiri is not known. Soon after this new broke out, celebrations erupt across the American cities.  This surely gives a great sense of relief and closure to all Americans and especially to the families of those who were killed in the 9/11 attacks masterminded by the al-Qaeda chief. At least 2,752 people from more than 90 countries were killed in this attack. This surely will boost the prospects of Obama's re-election as the President of the United States and bin Laden's death is going to be Obama's trump card of prime importance in Campaign 2012.
New York City's World Trade Center on fire, September 11, 2001. As many as 2,752 people from more than 90 countries were killed in this world's most gruesome terrorist attack on US soil masterminded by the late al-Qaeda chief.
