White House Releases Situation Room Images From Bin Laden Raid [PICS]!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The White House posted several images of President Obama and staffers planning and reviewing updates from the military raid that ended in the death of Osama bin Laden.

The White House Flickr account has been used extensively during the Obama administration, showing us candid and behind-the-scenes images from the First Family’s daily lives as well as President Obama’s diplomatic work. In fact, the administration’s overall use of social media has been impressive.

However, few pics from the account will ever get the attention garnered by this historic string of photos. These images show the palpable tension in the Situation Room the night of bin Laden’s death.

UPDATE: Flickr tells us the world’s response to these pictures is “skyrocketing … some [have] over 600,000 views already.” And some of these images are also seeing as many as 13,000 views per minute.

In these photos, we see Obama and other high-ranking U.S. government and security officials, including Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, in one of a series of meetings. In these talks, the President and advisors planned and saw executed a successful raid on the bin Laden compound, a high-walled mansion in thenorthern Pakistani town of Abbottabad
