Is it just me ...
I mean am I the only one who thinks we are not being brutal enough with our enemies?

31 special forces on one match? That’s just not a good idea. It reminds me of when we lost a helicopter full of SEALs a few years ago. No way should we be providing the enemy such a juicy target.
Prayers for the families.

I lost some great brother in arms! This is Carter on steroids (operation blue light) since the scuttlebutt is the “hands-off policy” of zero is behind the shooting down of the shithook C-47!
Pray for my Brothers!

My sister just called me and said that she heard on TV (didn’t say which channel) that it was Seal Team 6...anybody else heard that, or is it a rumor.

NATO? I’ll always be convinced there was a snitch in the bunch. They knew who was on this chopper and they knew where it was going to be.
Second, they shouldn’t even put out the word of who was on this chopper.

Comment at the SF Cron article:
“The current front page story about the tragic loss of lives in Afghanistan appearing in the Washington Post deletes material found in an earlier version of the story. Here is the deleted material found in an earlier version:
“Meanwhile, in the southern Helmand province, an Afghan government official said Saturday that NATO troops attacked a house and inadvertently killed eight members of a family, including women and children.
NATO said that Taliban fighters fired rocket propelled grenades and small arms fire at coalition troops during a patrol Friday in the Nad Ali district.
“Coalition forces responded with small arms fire and as the incident continued, an air strike was employed against the insurgent position,” said Brockhoff. He added that NATO sent a delegation to meet with local leaders and investigate the incident.
Nad Ali district police chief Shadi Khan said civilians died in the bombardment but that it was unknown how many insurgents were killed.”

Gentlemen ....here are some thoughts that I've had over the past 24 hours ...
For starters, I've been at Free Republic since 1996 ... so I'm NOT a Troll ...
As Jackie Gleason used to say "And Away We Go ..."
1) Osama Bin Laden was (carefully stated) the most "publicly visible" War Criminal since Hitler ...
2) Osama Bin Laden and Al Quada (sp) have certainly infiltrated the continental United States ... possibly a couple of years before 9/11 ... they CERTAINLY have Assasins and Sleeper Agents here ...
3) Osama Bin Laden might have actually been "hiding" in Pakistan and then Executed-Captured by the United States military a few months back ... but who REALLY knows ?
4) "SEAL Team Six" may not even ACTUALLY exist ... except on a Pentagon Public Relations / Counterintelligence chart ...
5) If I were the POTUS I actually would have assisted the Pentagon into "fabricating" the story of SEAL Team Six ... CERTAINLY THE UNIT'S names ... and possibly even Osama Bin Laden's capture-killing ...
6) Why fabricate a ficticious military unit SEAL Team Six ?
7) To protect the ACTUAL combat fighters and their families, relatives and GRANDCHILDREN for the next fifty (50) years ... against Al Quada retaliation ...
8) And what is the BEST way to handle this entire scenario ?
9) Allegedly kill Osama Bin Laden ... BURY HIM AT SEA (?????)
10) THEN ... MURDER or pretend to murder (by tragic accident, of course) ... the ENTIRE military unit SEAL Team Six ...
11) Dead Men tell no tales ... and this is "made for Hollywood" movie special ... ala "Wag the Dog" ...
12) At a minimum, IF there was a SEAL Team Six who really did kill Osama Bin Laden ... ALL OF THEIR SECRETS are now buried with them ...
13) Moreover, their Commanding Officers, CIA-NSA contacts, Support personnel will also be DEAD soon ... and all records mysteriously disappear ...
14) Could either President Bush or Bill Clinton EVER approved such a devious and EVIL plan ?
15) No ... not even Bill Clinton ...
16) Can you say THAT about U.S. President Barry Sorreto ?
17) No. He is EVIL. He is NERO in Rome. He is a traitor.
18) He is "Obama Bin Laden" (no mispelling) ... the FIRST moslem POTUS ...
19) And as Barry will whisper into Mooschelle's ears tonight in their Whitehouse Bedroom ... "May Allah be Praised" ...
