and osama bin laden's number two, dr. ayman al zawahiri, is most likely to lead the organization now. he's 59 years old, an egyptian. the u.s. military has tried to kill him at least six times, all of them unsuccessful, obviously. he has a long history of involvement with islamic militant groups. in fact, even longer than osama bin laden himself. but ayman al zawahiri is nowhere near as charismatic as osama bin laden, and that could be a major problem. it was bin laden who was always the main draw for recruits. he was the spiritual leader. and now that he is gone it will be a blow to al qaeda. but over the years, that said, al qaeda has splintered off into many different franchises, and those franchises operate independently. and already today in iraq we saw the first al qaeda attack since osama bin laden was killed. that attack being blamed on al qaeda in iraq. a bomb exploding in a shiite cafe in a neighborhood -- in a shiite neighborhood, killing at least 16 people, brian. >> all right. richard engel, who again, has sp

osama bin laden. is that the case? >> i do not know the answer to that. the description we have heard from officials of the administration is there was an initial attempt to capture him and put him under control, and he resisted. i do not know the exact description of how he resisted, but the navy seals, special operations command forces dealt consistent with orders that they had to kill him, and they did. >> there are apparently pictures taken of the killing. do you think that serves any purpose to release them to the public? >> that is a very difficult decision. i will leave it ultimately to the administration. unless there is an acknowledgement by people in al qaeda osama bin laden is dead, it may be necessary to release the pictures, as gruesome as they will be, because he was shot in the head, to quell any doubts that this somehow is our a ruse that the american government has carried out. i will respect whatever decision the president makes. i will tell you this, for my own part, based on inform

osama bin laden has been killed. he was also saying to all the families of those killed on 9/11 this is proof we have never forgotten your loss. i'm joined by stacy pelosi, her father was killed in the world trade center on the 98th floor. how do you feel tonight, stacy? >> it's a little shocking. i'm trying to process it all. you know, it's been ten years. i just never thought that this kind of closure was in the cards for me. i never thought we would get justice. so, while i'm cautiously optimistic, i'm a little nervous there might be some sort of retaliati retaliation. i'mov overjoyed that america pulled it together and got it done. >> i could not say it better. after ten years. the president hoping this will bring about the kind of unity we had in those days after 9/11. and i can only imagine how your family, stacy, will be feeling in the coming days. >> it's -- yeah. it's all bittersweet. there's a part of you that almost wants to celebrate, even though that's not the right word. but it's -- like i said, it's cl
