Kill Shot: The Story Behind Bin Laden’s Death

ABC News “20/20” gives viewers the most complete picture yet of the death of Osama bin Laden, from inside the situation room in Washington, DC to inside the compound in Pakistan to inside the minds of the brave men who stormed it. With new details and behind-the-scenes reports from Chris Cuomo, Elizabeth Vargas and Chris Connelly in New York, Martha Raddatz in DC and Nick Schifrin in Pakistan, the hour will include the exclusive video from inside the compound; a look at the definitive “tale of two cities:” Washington, DC and Abbotabad; the elite Navy Seals team; the reaction from teenagers who have grown up only knowing life after 9/11; and reality vs. fiction: how we think we know exactly what happened because of Hollywood’s film portrayals of special ops.

  1. THIS IS JUST A BUNCH OF BS. GOV. LIES. WHY GO TO IRAQ & NOT AFGAN TO GET BIN LADIN. ITS JUST PUTTING BS IN PPL’S HEADS. THEY KILLED ALL THOSE NAVY SEAL & OTHERS ON THE CHINOK. THATS A NO BRAINER. ALL THIS MAKES ME SICK

  2. Never happen. Just propaganda.

  3. I try to watch propaganda as a kind of test, this certainly is a test.

  4. Lack of imagination of posable terrorist attack. In summer of 2000 two 10 year old boys (in Europe) builded for them self one tower, representing the Twin towers. They had to remove the lego from the living-room. Of course they didn’t want to, of hard morning work of 1 meters = 3.28 feet tall lego construction. They were going to start when one of them saw 3. toy airplane lying on the floor. You do the math. All the family were socked when we heard the news the year later remembering this game of theirs. Our grate uncle worked near by the Twin tower but he was late to work that day.

  5. when election time comes up again they will say osama rose from the grave and they killed him again! people are like fucking sheep they will eat anything

  6. Full agree with all the negative commenst about Megavideo.

    Also, there is no good reason for Documentary Heaven to post the Megavideo version of this movie as it is available in other formats. A non-Megavideo version can be found at: http://documentarystorm.com/kill-shot-the-story-behind-bin-ladens-death/

    By positing this version it seems entirely plausible that Documentary Heaven either doesn’t care about its viewers or is linked to the money making activities of Megavideo.

  8. ABC bull****journalism its a SHAME

  9. more nonsense propaganda from the mainstream media…

  10. available on you tube guys

  11. why fight about mega video – entire film is available on you tube

  12. This is one of the most disgusting pieces of propaganda I have ever seen. I am ashamed of the depths to which my fellow human beings are brain washed. To think that it would be aired on 20/20 and presented as news shows the confidence the powers that be have that we will believe any bullshit we see on TV. Conscious viewers would ask themselves why the government is so quick to  release in depth information on the operation that killled Bin Ladin but we still have not seen reasonable footage of the plane that hit the Pentagon on 9-11…

  13. It did not take three trillion dollars and an army of a quarter of million men invading two countries to take out Bin Laden, just good intelligence work, a few million dollars, two helicopters and a task force of 67 highly trained killers.  That’s all it ever would have taken.  Just think what this country could have done for the people with that money, and all the dead would have still been around to enjoy it, instead of the bankers, munitions makers and Bush and Cheney’s buddies.

  14.  My mummy says that what this douche-bags should do is go to Amazon, pay for their documentaries, watch it on their daddy’s Iphone an then comment to their teddy-bear what they think about it.

     Wonder where people think they get their rights from, this days…?
    “I hereby declare that all men are created equal, and have the right to not reset their IP ever, and enjoy free content provided to them on regular basis.”

     Thanks for all Danny, and keep up the good job.

  15. watching the first minute im thinking that this is gonna be a load of BULL****** american propagana. CockHEADS!!

  16. watching the first minute im thinking that this is gonna be a load of BULL****** american propagana. CockHEADS!!

  17. Since Abc is owned by General Electric, without watching i can tell you, this doc is a load of horse puckey! DON’T TRUST YOUR GOVERNMENT! and DON’T TRUST THOSE MEGA COPERATIONS! 

  18. Mega video sux ass!

  19. Mega video sux ass!

  20. Mega video sux ass!

  21. Other than having to turn OFF and ON again your router every 90 minutes to keep watching, here Megavideo asks for no downloading of anything at all other than usual Flash player into your browser like any other site. And has the best streaming speed, sound and resolution (other than that highly copy-volatile HD Youtube).

  22. I think people should boycott Megavideo, starting with umm this video. How do Megavideo still operate even though they try to take money from you for material which isn’t even their copyright? Please don’t use the evil Megavideo and, for the love of all that is holy, don’t give them any money.

  23. Good Story but…Really…Bull****!

  24. I love Documentary Heaven but I don’t like downloading silly things to be able to watch documentaries on Documentary Heaven. That’s not heavenly.

    • Agree! Megavideo is absolute crap.

      Bt the webmaster of Documentary Heaven doesn’t care as their only criteria is to maximise the list of videos so a huge number can be claimed.

      DH interest’s is to include Megavideo so they can claim >1,500 movies, they’re not interested in listing (say) 1,000 which people can actually watch.

      • 100% agree.

        Documentary Heaven users don’t want it, but the owners do. I wonder why they’re don’t listen to the users????

      • 100% agree.

        Documentary Heaven users don’t want it, but the owners do. I wonder why they’re don’t listen to the users????

        • I always listen to the users, if i didnt do you think documentary heaven would still be around? Its top priority but as I said the reality is that I only post megavideo versions if there are no other alternatives this is because some people may actually want to watch the documentary and not really care if its hosted on megavideo because they still get to watch it rather then not seeing it at all.

          If you hate viewing videos that are hosted on megavideo you can simply pick another documentary from the collection, but you have to understand that some people might want to watch it.

          If i come across alternative versions I always replace the megavideo version. 

          Also regarding the post:
          “Megvideo is bullshit & money grabbing … please don’t list it here. Or maybe DH is more bothered about taking money from them than “providing you with documentaries.””

          If I was actually getting paid by megavideo to post their versions of documentaries, why would I post ways to bypass their limits? So I can assure you i’m not and am in no way affiliated with them.

          • “If I was actually getting paid by megavideo to post their versions of documentaries”

            There’s something amiss with this statement …… somehow DH is getting something from Megavideo, else why post these videos which are so unpopular? Maybe DH is getting paid by directing viewers to Megavideo or (as others have suggested) it’s about maximising the number of videos on the site irrespective of their quality.

            Certainly there’s no evidence of DH listening to users.

          • I think I have made my reasoning behind posting megavideo hosted documentaries quite clear already but i’ll say it again, its for those of you who actually want to view the documentary.

            If you decide not to watch megavideo hosted documentaries, thats completely fine no body and is making you watch it but believe it or not there are in fact people who dont mind all that much and would prefer to be able to watch the documentary on megavideo than not at all.

             I don’t understand why it bothers you so much its not like you are losing anything here, if i wasnt to post the documentary at all you might be then missing out on something that may interest you.

             Also its not as if there are that many megavideo hosted documentaries on the site anyhow and as i said they are only posted when there is no other alternative.

            “Certainly there’s no evidence of DH listening to users” how is this in anyway true? If a documentary is submitted/found and its on megavideo I will go out of my way to try and find an alternative sometimes spending up to half an hour searching. Do you really think I would purposely try to annoy the sites users? really? would be kinda counter productive. 

            So once again I can assure you in no way am i getting paid to embed megavideo versions as I ALWAYS try to dig out an alternative version. Also I very much doubt megavideo even has such affiliate programs.

          • So if it’s not about money from Megavideo then it must be about maximising the number of videos listed on the site.

            “Do you really think I would purposely try to annoy the sites users?” Well, by posting Megavideo videos you clearly are annoying users ….. and by continually rejecting their concerns you are both annoying them and not listening to them.
             

          • I highly doubt all that many people are annoyed at me for providing them with the option of watching something. As I said I rarely post megavideo documentaries anyway and always try to avoid them so its not as if its that much of an issue anyway. 

            Its win win, people that would like to watch the documentary regardless of where its hosted get to watch it and the ones who wish to avoid megavideo can pick another documentary they might fancy watching. 

            You are still being provided with a service that is free of charge so no one is loosing out on anything.

            Anyway I am growing tired of explaining myself.

            All the best,

          • Danny…i admire your patience with this douche! 

          • What a very mature comment … haven’t you got some homework to do?

          • Re. “I highly doubt all that many people are annoyed” Then you’ve not read the various comments from users, both against this video and others on the website.

            It seems you should amend your earlier claim of “I always listen to the users” to “I always listen to the users but I disregard what they say.”

          • DUDE…shut the fuck up! 

          • Dietraenenallahs – can’t you hear your Mom calling … it’s your bedtime. 

          • WTF is wrong with you people? If you don’t like the video, DON’T WATCH IT!!! Simple.
            @ Danny, keep up the good work, man!

          • Try this website: http://www.documentariestv.net/index.html

            Compared to Documentary Heaven its easier to use, has more documentaries,  had a ‘Contact Us’ option, and they listen to the community … all round superior.

            And I’m not connected to the website other than being a fan.

      • This is absolute nonsense “Guest”, the site has been around for almost 2 years so the number 1500+ documentaries has been collected with a lot of time and effort. We dont just post up any old documentary, if we think people will enjoy the documentary but the only version available is hosted on megavideo we will post it. We actually dont have that many documentaries hosted on megavideo here as I personally try to avoid it as much as possible.

        Also when a megavideo video is posted we link you to our faq page where you can indeed learn how to bypass their time limits.

        I think we do a fair job when it comes to providing you with documentaries.
         

        • Yes you do a fair job. But instead of trying to avoid Megavideo as much as possible, please avoid it altogether. When we are all trying to get a culture of free information on the web, having a site demanding money so you can continue watching is just plain wrong.

          • I would like Documentary Heaven to continue providing a wide variety of documentaries frequently, if not more often. People can decide which docs they would have an interest in. Plus i  don’t think megavideo is that bad. Apart from the 70min problem it’s perfect, switching router on/off, not a big deal, problem soved.

          • Thanks for the tip, although from previous experience it takes between 24 – 36 hours of no power to my system for the ISP address to be re-set.

            Not much of a solution!

            Any chance of reposting without Megavideo?
