Nice. That was a fantastic moment. It didn't solve the world's problems, it can't bring his victims back, but it was a great feeling to see "Osama Bin Laden is Dead" come on the TV. And to top it all off, it happened during a Jane's show.

Compelling narrative of the events. You can appreciate the risks involved and better understand the tension captured in the historic situation room photo:
