After Vietnam my opinion is never get in a war that you are not committed to win.

Prayers for families of the fallen.

Rest in Peace my brothers.... If you all want to support the SEAL Community and the affected families please consider support for the Naval Special Warfare Foundation. They do great things for the Community when tragedgy hits hard.

Typical mismanagement. Putting so many valuable men in the same chopper to save a few bucks

I’ve never been a conspiracy theorist, but lately up is down and right is left. I no longer know what to think about anything. God bless the brave soldiers. May they rest in peace.

Why are the SEALS treated as the only ones that died?

First...G-d comfort their families, and may the fallen Rest in His Peace. This is beyond heartbreaking.

I don’t know why, but I felt the need to visit the DUmp. They have a thread on this as well. What stuns me is over there they are questioning the “coincidence” as much as we are here.

May G-d help us all...as many seem to have the same gut level suspicions.

This is terrible news! I’m with others, in that it seems like it was some kind of set-up. I do understand that things happen in war and the bad guys are trying to win as well, but this seems way too convenient. I just hope that they’ve had the chance to tell the story of what really happened in the OBL raid and that it isn’t gone forever. A very sad day for the USA.

WHAT????? YEah sounds too much like the Polish Government to me. For those that don’t know, that’s about like losing a company of regular soldiers.

Gossip and unauthorized leaks from U.S. officials, politicians and retired military officers about the highly classified raid to kill Osama bin Laden have jeopardized the ability of special forces to carry out similar operations in the future, said Defense Secretary Robert Gates.

"Too many people in too many places are talking too much about this operation," Gates said, adding that the level of disclosures and blabbing violates an agreement reached in the White House Situation Room on May 8 to keep details of the raid private.

"That lasted about 15 hours," Gates said sourly.

The cascade of details surfacing about the highly classified event makes similar operations in the future "that much more difficult and riskier," Gates told reporters at a Pentagon briefing Wednesday.

"It is time to stop talking," agreed Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. In a pointed directive to officials, politicians and the retired military officers often featured on cable news programs, he added, "Get off the net."

Members of the Navy SEAL team that tore into bin Laden’s compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan and killed the 9/11 mastermind had expressed concern to Gates about the safety of their families after the team had been identified publicly and officials from the White House, the Pentagon and Congress widely discussed the operation.

This really makes me feel sick inside.

You were all great men. Go with God.

What the hell were these people doing anywhere near Pakistan. They should’ve been home with their families on indefinite leave, if only as a security precaution.

This is awful on multiple levels.

It sounds like they may have been on their way to a mission, wonder if it is normal procedure for them to all travel together.

There are no words to describe the sorrow for the blood of husbands, fathers, sons, mothers, uncles, daughters and aunts, that this corrupt government has sacrificed for power and failure. They have ruined our country and taken lives for absolutely nothing.

Each and every person in this administration, Congress, and all of those that are running things now, should feel profound shame for what they have done.

I feel nothing but disgust and revulsion at our government.

I don’t know how they look at themselves in the mirror as the day closes for the crimes thay have committed against the American people.

I hope God exacts his toll from all of them.
