which means bin laden... he seems to have very little to do with that. >> woodruff: lauren, is there a sense of relief? maybe i should say a sense of safety that you feel your life may be easier now, may be less threatened as a result of his being gone? >> no, i don't think so. especially with the students that i go to school with. we're very politically involved. we're reading the news. a lot of our students want to become politicians. i think that they understand that he isn't... i mean he was their leader, of course. but wiping out osama bin laden doesn't mean that there is no more terrorists in the united states. i doesn't mean all of a sudden we're safe and we're going to a pre-9/11 world. i think they understand this is a movement toward the sort of peace that america wants but i don't think college students in general believe that now it's over. >> woodruff: how do you read that, janet vincent? >> you know, i'm really interested in who we are as an american people. i'm interested in my own conflicted r

bin laden was unarmed. okay. we also learned the seals encountered gunfire when they entered the second home where bin laden was. bin laden was on the third floor. nonadult children were in the room with him. his wife and those children are in pakistani custody today. we know the firefight lasted 20 minutes. but he was unarmed. the pakistani papers are now suggesting that bin laden was shot by his own guards. not by u.s. special forces. the chinese news agencies are reporting that pakistani officials, the world's most wanted terrorist, osama bin laden was killed in a search operation launched by the pakistani forces. i haven't heard yet if the cub scouts were involved. there will always be confusion and there will always be doubt and conflicting stories. but tonight, i want to take you probably out of your comfort zone. it's 5:00. on the "glenn beck program." i want you to use some critical thinking here. not as a viewer but as the president of the united states. because i think we are starting to miss important

osama bin laden is dead. >> as far as "the new york times" is concerned this morning, bin laden is dead. you can see a picture there that has a ticker in the foreground. it is difficult to see maybe on the tv screen but those were all firefighters with new york city firefighters with their backs to the ticker board. you can see it right there. bin laden is dead. >> talking about vigilance, you saw an enormous amount of police and fire rolling in the streets of new york last night. here is another headline we have for you. and this is from the daily news. osama bin laden dead. >> it seems to be short and sweet. >> to the point. >> getting right to it. >> on newspapers throughout the world. >> this is the times out of london. again, the obvious, osama bin laden dead. now, they're claiming this is a shot of the dead body of osama bin laden and the bullets shot right through the head. >> we have learned that special operations forces are the ones who conducted this raid on a compound. it was about 60 miles north of islamabad. apparently, that's the first picture i've seen so far of osama bi

bin laden also had about $745 in cash. and two telephone numbers sewn into his clothing when he was killed. in another development, the u.s. is demanding pakistan explain what it knew, and what it did not know about bin laden's location. cia director leon panetta minced no words in a closed briefing on capitol hill telling lawmakers that either they, pakistan, were involved or incompetent. neither place is a good place to be. a senior pakistani intelligence official has reacted angrily to panetta and other u.s. officials who have asserted that pakistan's leaders must have known about bin laden's whereabouts. he says, quote, what more statement can come than that we heard from panetta. at the white house, and on capitol hill, a growing dispute over whether the photos of bin laden's body should be made public. as the president prepares to meet with 9/11 families at ground zero tomorrow, the administration is also facing pressure from some lawmakers to reexamine the long relationship with pakistan. for more on this, we turn t

osama bin laden, and a resident identified osama bin laden, and osama bin laden was given a chance to surrender and he resisted and shot in the head and a photo identification was made of osama bin laden, they have photographed but the c.i.a. has not released the photographs, and now we can report he has been buried at sea. >> the defense department official said they took pictures. with saddam hussein they thought it was important to see the photographs after death, will we see the photographs? >> they have in not decided. there are photos that claim to willing osama bin laden shot but we are told by intelligence fills they are doctored photographs and have been there for a while. so far, the photographs have not been released but they have photographic evidence. they did not want to set up a land burial so there would be a land shrine. there was a decision made so there was no place for pilgrims to come to visit. saudi arabia was asked if they wanted possession of body of osama bin laden but they dechained. >> it would be more appropriate to throw him off the building. that would be

that left him standing right in front of bin laden. bin laden was unarmed but the seal thought he was a threat so he shot him twice. katie? >> couric: and, david, doesn't that support the notion that this was, in fact, a kill mission? >> well, the seals certainly weren't there to give bin laden the benefit of the doubt. but only that seal knows why he pulled the trigger. >> couric: all right. david martin at the pentagon tonight. david, thank you. earlier today i talked with c.i.a. director panetta, the man in charge of the operation, and i asked him why photographs of bin laden taken after he was killed have not been released. >> well, i'm sure the concern is that just the nature of the photos themselves are such that it could, in fact, be used to try to develop the revengeful nature of what al qaeda is all about and try to inspire them to take even further action against us. i think that's the concern. >> couric: yesterday, white house counterterrorism advisor john brennan said the navy seals were prepared for a capture or kill missi

but did we assassinate bin laden? settling a score or a violation of principles and conspiracy theories. is osama the next elvis? then -- s.e.a.l. team six. >> sleep tight, sucker. >> no, not a chuck norris movie, the guys that shot bin laden. but e.d. hill has been digging and she says they may have had some help. stay tuned. now, a top story tonight. i will show you more video shot today. you see those people holding a banner written in erdu, but here's the translation. they're doubting osama bin laden is dead. let's go live to abbottabad, pakistan, where we're joined by cnn senior international correspondent nic robertson. tell me about the protests and who is leading them. >> reporter: well, it's lawyers here, amazingly enough, in this city, who are protesting. i spoke to the president of the bar association here today. he said 400 to 500 lawyers came out, protesting what they called an american attack on the compound. i asked him about this. he said they don't believe that bin laden was living here, that they bel
