The White House conference room where President Barack Obama and his top aides watched the raid that killed Osama bin Laden has been dismantled as part of a just-completed major renovation of the "Situation Room" complex. The $50 million refresh of the legendary space, which comprises an entire multiroom complex deep within the West Wing of the White House, included digging five feet below ground to make modern technological and other changes, officials said on a rare tour for reporters on Thursday.
