(Community Matters) This is the story circulating:
Sohaib Athar, a.k.a. @ReallyVirtual, had no idea the helicopters he was complaining about on twitter were part of the top secret mission that killed Osama bin Laden Sunday night. 10 hours before bin Laden’s death was announced Athar posted: “Helicopter hovering above Abbottabad at 1AM (is a rare event).” From the article: “During the raid, Athar speculates that he was two or three kilometers away from the shooting that took place. Once news broke that bin Laden had been killed in Abbottabad, Athar tweeted, ‘Uh oh, now I’m the guy who liveblogged the Osama raid without knowing it.’”
