Official announcement from Obama still hasn't come yet. But markets react on rumors, not necessarily the announcements which contain the hard facts that the rumors are based on.
It is on now. He's blaming Osama for 9/11 too, even though the FBI says there isn't enough evidence to link Osama to 9/11.
Many thanks to the site and all the contributors. Great source of info.

MSNBC reporting it was Navy SEALs, and that Osama was shot at least once in the head.

President Bill Clinton:
Quoting
"This is a profoundly important moment not just for the families of those who lost their lives on 9/11 and in al-Qaida's other attacks but for people all over the world who want to build a common future of peace, freedom, and cooperation for our children.
I congratulate the President, the National Security team and the members of our armed forces on bringing Osama bin Laden to justice after more than a decade of murderous al-Qaida attacks."

President George W Bush:
Quoting
Earlier this evening, President Obama called to inform me that American forces killed Osama bin Laden, the leader of the al Qaeda network that attacked America on September 11, 2001.
I congratulated him and the men and women of our military and intelligence communities who devoted their lives to this mission. They have our everlasting gratitude. This momentous achievement marks a victory for America, for people who seek peace around the world, and for all those who lost loved ones on September 11, 2001.
The fight against terror goes on, but tonight America has sent an unmistakable message: No matter how long it takes, justice will be done.

I never wanted to see/hear him at a trial:
" After a firefight , they killed Osama bin Laden and took custody of his body."
I don't think that there's going to be worldwide rejoicing:
"Bin Laden was not a Muslim leader; he was a mass murderer of Muslims. Indeed, al Qaeda has slaughtered scores of Muslims in many countries, including our own. So his demise should be welcomed by all who believe in peace and human dignity."
After a few thousand days since 9-11, I thank God that He did this for us:
"And may God bless the United States of America."
