Wow, I didn't expect this to be as good a read as it was. When I saw the headline I thought, man, haven't we reported on this enough? But it's actually incredibly absorbing, with new, interesting info, and surprisingly funny. It's bin Laden's actual shooter's story (not the dude who wrote the book). Told partly in his own words and partly by the reporter's narrative.
The Shooter
Excerpt: On the third floor, there were two chicks yelling at us and the point man was yelling at them and he said to me, "Hey, we need to get moving. These bitches is getting truculent." I remember saying to myself, Truculent? Really? Love that word.
Maybe just the grammar nerd in me, but I was very tickled by that.
