Description: The U.S. had been searching for Osama bin Laden since learning he was the mastermind behind the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. But he had avoided capture for almost 10 years. When Barack Obama became president in 2009, he made bin Laden's capture a top priority. And on the evening of May 1, 2011, 24 members of U.S. Navy SEAL Team Six were poised and ready to strike. U.S. officials believed they had located bin Laden. But what if the officials were wrong? What if the SEALs were killed in the capture attempt? Inside the Situation Room the president and his advisers waited anxiously for what proved to be the downfall and death of one of the world's most lethal terrorists.
