The explosive investigation into the White House cover-ups of the Obama presidency

In 2011, an elite group of US Navy SEALS stormed an enclosure in the Pakistani city of Abbottabad and killed Osama bin Laden, the man the United States had begun chasing before the devastating attacks of 9/11. The news did much to boost President Obama’s first term and played a major part in his re-election victory of the following year. But much of the story of that night, as presented to the world, was incomplete or a lie.

This investigation, which began as a series of essays in the London Review of Books, has ignited a firestorm of controversy in the world media and still leaves many difficult questions unanswered concerning Barack Obama’s presidency as well as the success of the international diplomacy conducted by presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

  • At long last, we can all decide for ourselves what we think of Hersh’s story

  • One of America’s greatest investigative reporters.

    New York Times Magazine
  • It is the demands of state secrecy, their distressing effects on U.S. foreign policy — and ultimately their subversion of the democratic process — that unify the four essays in Seymour Hersh's The Killing of Osama Bin Laden…an explosive account.
