Families say Muslim cleric disparaged dead Navy SEALS at their own funeral
The Daily Caller ^ | may 9, 2013 | Patrick Howley

Relatives of Navy SEALs who died when their helicopter was shot down in Afghanistan in August 2011 spoke at a press conference Thursday to condemn the Obama administration and claim that the U.S. military presented a Muslim cleric at the dead SEALs’ funeral who disparaged “sinners and infidels who are fodder for the hell fire.”

FreedomWatch president Larry Klayman, the attorney representing the families, claimed at the press conference, which Republican Rep. Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota and former Florida Republican Rep. Allen West also attended, that the U.S. military presented an anti-American speaker at the SEALs’ 2011 funeral.

This site plays really loud audio when it loads. You might want to turn your volume down/off first.

Why did/does this happen?

The Obama and the US Congress hate Americans
and their religion.

SPECIAL BREAKS AGAIN for ISLAM.

From DeathPANELS, to running the Pentagon,
the more someone is an ENEMY of America,
the more likely they will be appointed to a
position of power.

Has Larry Klayman ever won a case?

And what is the case?

I have no doubts about the Muslim Cleric and the military screwing up the funeral, but what are they trying to achieve?

I just got done watching ALL THREE HOURS...it’s powerful
YOU HAVE TO MAKE TIME TO WATCH IT IN IT’S ENTIRETY!

AFTER WATCHING THIS...(sorry for the caps) putting Benghazi and the killing of the members of Seal Team 6 together will become VERY evident. Listen to the families

After watching this you’ll know why it is so important TO KEEP BENGHAZI ALIVE. you’ll understand why the media wants it to go away. It’s more than what you think. You may have to convince others to watch three hours...but you must do that in order for them to understand..... IT’S ALL EXPOSED.

Something about this story doesn't compute. I'd like to know how anyone other than family member even has the authority to invite someone to a funeral in the first place.

Was this really a "funeral," or was it a government-run "prayer service"?

Glenn Beck was ranting about this yesterday on his radio program.

It might be up on the BLAZE; does anyone have a link?

Apparently there is a lot of “fishy” evidence surfacing about the shoot down and KIA of that “SEAL team 6” in Afghanistan; I was among those who were initially suspicious of a retaliatory set-up for their successful “neutralization” of OBL until trusted military sources such as General Boiken “debunked” such suspicions and claimed that the incident was just an unfortunate function of the “fog of war”.
Now we are beginning to wonder.... again.

It seems that some tactical support for that mission was inexplicably denied or ordered to “stand down” when the team went in to their last mission.... a preview of Bengazi?

Beck alleges (from his confidential SEAL sources) that this is not the only instance where SEALS seem to have been “hung out to dry” or sacrificed under suspicious circumstances since the OBL raid.

He alluded to a high level meeting between SEALS recently in which this phenomenon was discussed among them. It seems that SEALS are starting to feel like an “endangered species” these days.... and for good reason!

Let’s face it - Moslems are *ssholes.

I mean, can there really be any doubt about it at this point?

it all comes clear..make the time to watch it....don’t skip over any of it. Benhgazi results will look very familiar, Odungo at his ugliest.

Because it seems to me that the real complaint here would apply to ANY religious figures at military "funerals."

If I were a Baptist soldier, for example, why the hell would anyone in the U.S. military be arranging for prayer services that involve even other Christian denominations?

I agree that the families have something to complain about here, but once you have Larry Klayman involved there are likely to be a lot of questions about credibility.

Winning a case? Is he after winning a case? Why do virtually all lawyers angle for a settlement rather than going to court to”win” a case?

Say what you will about Larry’s persona but you cannot deny he is asking the questions and does get all sorts of documents released under FOIA and under many circumstances resorts to hyperbole and public pressure from his rants to get government sources to relent when normally they just deny as long as they can.

I sent this one on to a fully unionized liberal family member and even he is asking how the hell can this happen. I told him that it didn’t surprise me a bit because I’ve been paying attention and he might want to do the same.

Here’s the link to the BLAZE article:

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/05/09/lies-and-deceit-see-what-the-families-of-the-seal-team-6-members-slain-in-chop

My AV went off on me when I opened it but pretty sure it’s a false positive. Some people out there just don’t seem to want us visiting conservative sites for some reason - I’m surprised my AV does not try to block FR!

If anyone goes to the BLAZE and encounters a REAL malware threat (which would be the result of a hack attack) please let us know!
