05/01/2011 - Justice has been done, President Barack Obama said in announcing the death of Osama bin Laden in a
U.S. military operation in Pakistan, May 1, 2011. The attack ends a manhunt of almost 10 years. Bin Laden and his
henchmen planned and executed the attacks of September 11, 2001, that killed 3,000 innocent Americans in New
York, Washington and Pennsylvania. White House photo by Chuck Kennedy

U.S. service members watch on television President Obama talk about the details of the death of 9/11 mastermind,
Osama Bin Laden inside the USO at Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan, May 2, 2011. Released, Staff Sergeant Stephen
Schester16th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment .

A crowd cheers and chants in excitement at the corner of Vesey Street and Liberty Street next to Ground Zero after
hearing that Osama Bin Laden is dead. Bin Laden planned the attacks, September 11, 2001 and has been hunted by
American forces in the years since. He was killed by a raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan near the country's capital. The
Freedom Tower, the skyscraper being built where the World Trade Center towers once stood, is now 60 stories tall
and was lit up and visible from the street. Eventually the Freedom Tower will be the tallest building in the country.
