Abottabad, Pakistan, Sunday night. The clock shows Monday, the second of May, nearing one o'clock. Still darkest night. Bin Laden wakes up from noises made by those coming to kill him. He holds his wife. A Navy Seal splits his skull with two shots fired at his head.
Abottabad, Sunday night, beginning Monday. In most parts of the world it is still Sunday, the first of May. In Pakistan, the first hour of the second day of the month. Still dark, but a sudden noise makes Osama bin Laden wake up. He knows they are coming to kill him. He holds to his wife. He cannot see his killers, but they can see him; one of them aims at his forehead and splits it open in the shape of a V.


The soldier zip-ties Osama's screaming widow to her bed. He notices a two or three year old child, screaming, crying, in shock. "I didn't want to hurt him, because I'm not a savage. There was a lot of screaming, he was crying, just in shock. I didn't like that he was scared. I picked him up and put him next to his mother" [http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2276972/Navy-SEAL-describes-moment-shot-Osama-bin-Laden-3-times-head.html].
