diane? >> nick schifrin reporting tonight from pakistan. >>> and we learned today back here at home of a debate inside the white house. since some of the u.s. enemies like the taliban is saying bin laden is not really dead, should the white house release photos of his body, or would those photos inflame opponents even more? jake tapper is at the white house for us tonight. jake? >> reporter: diane, the obama administration has photographs of bin laden's corpse taken in pakistan, after began stan, and on the deck of that aircraft carrier. the director of the cia says he thinks the photographs will be released, but the president and others are concerned about inflaming passions, causing more murders and injuries to innocent civilians. u.s. officials who have seen the photographs describe them as bloody, with a massive gunshot wound to his forehead. >> it's fair to say it's a gruesome photograph. >> reporter: that could be inflammatory? >> it is certainly possible, and this is an issue that we

when i walked into diane's store and met her, my first impression was this woman is a spit fire. she's a woman in a male-dominated business and it was her touch that turned this gun store business around. >> it made a very distinct noise. burglars all know that noise. >> there's no question about who is in charge here, but for some customers of this cuyahoga county ohio gun shop, diane can be a bit of a surprise. >> i shock people from time to time because i am a woman that knows about guns. >> diane buys them, sells them and teaches people to use them. >> go ahead and put your finger on the trigger. that's good trigger control. >> she's one of a small number of female gun seller operators in the country. >> believe it or not, there's more than you think. but they are all behind the scenes. where i am out front here. most of the gun shops are family businesses. the men are out front but the women are in the back. >> diane who runs the whole show from stock room to showroom never planned to have a career in firearms. her husband got her into it. >> he had more experience about fir

diane? >> all right, jake, thank you. and some of those denying it, of course, overseas in pakistan, where there is another debate raging tonight. it is about the u.s. and pakistan, and, of course, it is lighting up the air waves here at home, as well. cia director leon panetta has said that pakistan was either involved in protecting bin laden or incompetent, raising the question here at home, what about the foreign aide the u.s. has sent to pakistan, $20 billion since 9/11? jim sciutto spent the day questioning a senior pakistani intelligence officer about all of this, and he is in islamabad tonight. jim? >> reporter: well, diane, senior security officials here are not normally in the business of speaking openly to foreign journalists, but tonight, the anger at the u.s. government is so severe inside the pakistani government, they are eager to say their piece. we were invited to meet one of pakistan's most senior security officials. it is an extremely rare interview. he refused to have his face shown or voice recorded. o

jake. >> good evening, diane. well, president obama had top advisers telling him not to go through with this mission. the intelligence was not strong enough, they said. the risks were too great. but ultimately president obama decided the intelligence from the cia was solid. he had faith in the navy s.e.a.l.s. he told his team, it's a go. it was a nerve-racking three hours in the situation room sunday as president obama and his national security team watched in real time the navy s.e.a.l.s making their way to osama bin laden's compound. >> it was probably one of the most anxiety filled periods of time in the lives of the people who were assembled here yesterday. the minutes passed like days. >> as a presidential candidate, then senator obama argued he would refocus military and intelligence assets from iraq to afghanistan and pakistan. >> we will kill bin laden. we will crush al qaeda. >> reporter: in june 2009, less than five months into his presidency, the president wrote a memo to the cia director telling him, q

diane, i hope you're watching. it was 24 hours ago. >> finally tonight, our persons of the week, all those kids mustering the nerve to ask will you be my prom date? >> reporter: it was one student in particular whose courage seemed to backfire. james tate from connecticut put out cardboard letters and taped them to the side of the school trying to get the girl, just like the boy who showed up in class with his guitar. ♪ >> reporter: the student who made a splash with the roses. she said yes too. james thought he was in great company. asking her would you go to the prom with me. she said yes, but this week, his school said no, charging he had trespassed after hours. his punishment, no prom. >> he was waiting for a special way to ask her. i did that. this is what happened. >> reporter: within days, 10,000 twitter defenders. 175,000 hits on facebook. a state representative drafting an appeal, and jimmy kimmel too. >> i guess they're worried cardboard would flutter down to the ground and injure some lady bugs or some

. >> reporter: diane, the trail had gone cold, very cold. some thought he must have left the regions. others suggested he must be dead. almost no one expected to find him living a life of relative luxury in a major city next to a military garrison. the united states had been trying to kill bin laden for 13 years, since the administration of president clinton. >> bin laden has been our national enemy, self-declared, for far longer than any other one person in our history. >> reporter: the son of a prominent and wealthy saudi family, bin laden first went to afghanistan to fight the russians but then turned on the united states. on his orders, thousands died in the 1998 attacks on two u.s. embassies in africa. in the attack on the "uss cole" in yemen in 2000 and the 9/11 attacks of which he seemed so proud. the discovery of bin laden's hiding place in a million dollar mansion in pakistan was the result of a masterful cia intelligence operation that focused on the courier who was his connection to the outside world. >> we were able to piece toge

diane? >> all right, martha, thank you. >>> as you know, the taliban in pakistan have apparently already set out to avenge osama bin laden's death, claiming responsibility for a deadly double bombing today, the target, the pakistani police. at least 80 people were killed in the horrific suicide attack. and we asked our nick schifrin to take a snapshot of what it is like at that scene. >> reporter: the reason this attack was so deadly was this, this is a ball bearing, and these were packed into these bombs and when they exploded, they ripped through these vans where the recruits had gathered this morning, about to go home. this area has seen so much violence, kidnappings, and killings, and when i come here, i have to wear local clothes in order to blend in and not make myself such a target. >> and that was our nick schifrin. it is a dangerous place there. and he was there on a deadly day of retribution. >>> now, back to the united states, and the flooding mississippi here at home. we began th

. >>> well, diane, u.s. officials say, in his writings, bin laden urged his following to strike smaller cities and kill as many americans as possible. the officials say bin laden remained obsessed with outdoing the attacks of september 11th. and he believed only a body count in the thousands would have any effect on u.s. policy overseas. >> the fact that bin laden wanted to kill thousands of americans doesn't surprise me at all. >> reporter: from his compound in pakistan, officials say bin laden urged al qaeda to consider attacks on los angeles, as well as smaller american cities. spread out the attack, he advised. >> it makes it more difficult for us to track because we're looking at more symbolic locations. >> reporter: u.s. officials say bin laden was not satisfied with what had been smaller planned attacks, presumably like the failed times square bombing last year. the shooting at ft. hood and the aborted christmas day bombing of a flight headed to detroit. >> there's a number of ways to have high body c

>> reporter: good evening, diane. it is difficult to overstate the importance of the mississippi river when it comes to this country's commerce. over 500 million tons of cargo move up and down that river each and every year. everything from grain to steel, timber and coal. all of the commodities that make this country run. it's a decision no one wanted. the mississippi river is closed at natchez to northbound traffic to protect the already strained levees from more pressure brought in by big barges. but stopping those vessels will put an economic strain on so many far from the water's only. because this mighty river carries many of the goods that ultimately wind up on our plates. already, wheat is up 28 cents a bushel. corn is up 23 cents. soybeans, up 15. and with the water still rising here, there's no telling how long the closures will last. 4,000 people in mississippi are displaced. so many of their homes already drowned. down river in krotz springs, louisiana, shirley and robbie are fortifying their house as fast
