U.S. marks 1 year since Osama bin Laden's death
Today marks the anniversary of the death of Osama bin Laden, the terrorist mastermind behind the Sept. 11 attacks. One year ago, an elite team of U.S. Navy SEALs flew into Pakistan and killed the al-Qaida leader in a daring, middle-of-the-night raid. Counterterrorism officials say there are no credible threats against the U.S. today. Later this week, the White House says some declassified documents seized from bin Laden's compound will be made public.
