“There are too many inaccuracies and baseless assertions in this piece to fact check each one,” White House national security spokesman Ned Price said in a statement. “Nevertheless, the notion that the operation that killed Usama Bin Ladin was anything but a unilateral U.S. mission is patently false.

The President decided early on not to inform any other government, including the Pakistani Government, which was not notified until after the raid had occurred. We had been and continue to be partners with Pakistan in our joint effort to destroy al-Qa’ida, but this was a U.S. operation through and through.”Original story below:"
