"High-level lying nonetheless remains the modus operandi of U.S. policy, along with secret prisons, drone attacks, Special Forces night raids, bypassing the chain of command, and cutting out those who might say no," Hersh wrote of the Obama administration's counter-terrorism policies.
Apparently, Hersh's report was based on one anonymous source that is a "retired senior intelligence official who was knowledgeable about the initial intelligence about bin Laden's presence in Abottabad."
The source alleged that the Pakistani government had an active role in implementing the raid on bin Laden's compound but did not receive any credit.
"Obama's speech was put together in a rush," Hersh wrote of his 2011 announcement.
"The fact that there was an agreement with the Pakistanis and no contingency analysis of what was to be disclosed if something went wrong - that wasn't even discussed," the source reportedly said.
Hersh also accused the Obama administration of embellishing details of the raid itself.
