Hillary Clinton explained his gesture in the photo while watching the operation "Geronimo"
It may be my way to avoid one of my cough and allergy spring," said U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, to explain the gesture captured in the photo released by the White House at the time watching the military operation, Geronimo, where Bin Laden was killed.
In the image, which shows the team's president of the United States watching live the military operation, Clinton has one of his hands covering his mouth.
The photograph became the most viewed picture in the history of Flickr.
It includes Yahoo News:
Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, said today that in the photo where she looks with her mouth covered and expression of concern following the operation in which Osama Bin Laden was murdered, was actually hiding a possible fit of coughing.
"It could be my way to avoid one of my cough and allergy spring," Clinton responded today to a question about what was going through his head at the time.
"Those were 38 minutes from the most intense. I have no idea what we were seeing in that particular millisecond when the photograph was taken, "the head of state in Rome, where he participated in a meeting on Libya.
His remarks quickly turned back across the United States and is considered one of the iconic images of that dramatic day that ended with the considered number one enemy.
This gesture of Hillary was seen in a photograph released by the White House, in which the diplomat was following "Operation Geronimo" with, among others, the U.S. president, Barack Obama.
But what many interpreted at the time as a sign of great tension that filled the "Situation Room" White House, now turned into something far more trivial causes and comments from Americans
