US Forces Kill Osama bin Laden in Pakistan

摘要

Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates told hundreds of airmen at Seymour Johnson AFB, N.C., May 6, that Osama bin Laden's death "could be a game changer" in Afghanistan. However, it could take six months to determine the full impact his death will have for the US combat forces operating in theater. US special operations forces killed the terrorist leader May 1 following a firefight inside his compound in Abbot-tabad, Pakistan, roughly 35 miles north of the capital city Islamabad.
