I think journalists should have their home addresses published.

Methinks TPTB got their panties in a wad and dropped the docs on this guy.

The SEALS chose to play hardball politics. Welcome to the Chicago Way.

I have read a few articles on this, it seems a lot of current SEAL members are upset about this as well.

“The tell-all book also has apparently upset a large population of former and current SEAL members who worry about releasing information that could compromise future missions. One Navy SEAL told Fox News, “How do we tell our guys to stay quiet when this guy won’t?”

I would have to agree, seems it could compromise future efforts by them...

He’s a former SEAL. Like many former operators who have written books, his name is all over the place.

So he wrote the book under a pseudonym?

If Fox said it I suspect the name has been circulating all over DC and NYC already.

He shouldn’t have published a book revealing details of the mission. ‘Loose lips sink ships’ and in some cases ‘people’.

It’s reasonable to conclude that the leak that lead to those 21 Seals and 2 pilots being shot out of the sky in Afghanistan had to came from someone inside our government. People in the MSM never even questioned that security breach and who ever leaked that info will likely never be charged. The entire military should have come unraveled at the WH for that breach.

Not sure I understand the issue - the man wrote a book, for public sale, and now the book is being promoted. Wouldn’t you expect his name to be revealed?

Also, as I understand, he is not an active member of the SEALS any longer

yes?

The Seals rescue of that merchant cargo vessel captain allowed shipments (there was also a second ship) allowed Obama to pay off Kenya to close down all records of Obama’s birth(whether in or out of Kenya) and mama Stanley’s visit to Kenya.

Writing a book describing Operation Osama isn’t much different from that sleezebag Julian Assange. It’s gonna get someone killed or a future mission compromised.
There’s a reason the details of missions like this are secret.

He wrote this under a pseudonym Mark Owen

Was it another name?

A lesser well known military adage:

“When life gives you lemons, set up an ambush.”

In this case, he has to move himself and his family, but he and his former SEAL buddies can set up several supposed sites where they moved to, as traps for anyone who might come hunting.

For example, a nice isolated cabin in the woods, very difficult to find unless you are looking for it. Car gates with keep out signs that have to be opened, and hidden pressure activated tire spikes in the dirt road.

And out of sight there might be an abandoned mineshaft and a small John Deere backhoe.

Since it’s inconvenient to wait for company to come calling, send out some invitations on the Internet to see who bites.

A car full of jihadis with all sorts of guns and explosives just decide to go camping right there, opened gates and trespassed. And they were never seen again.

That Blair Witch does get around.

It’s Faux News, what do you expect? They push just as much sleaze and b.s. as the other MSM networks.
