Im sorry i bought into all that free them bs. All that happened was we lost brave patriotic American’s and for what??? No damn good reason..no more...
Good catch
Joe Biden fingered them
My view is that this is the agreed upon payment to Al Qaeda for the Bin Laden raid, and Obama agreed to it.
These men were a blood sacrifice, plain and simple.
Landing in the sand at night is a bad idea in places where the sand contains quartz.
There is a halo produced by the piezoelectric effect, but I blame Biden and the Obama administration for identifying these operatives.
Its an example of the ***utter incompetence*** of our higher military leaders these days.
The ground force was too small, and it was forbidden from using supporting arms, artillery and air support. There was no reserve force. And the solution when this tiny force gets pinned down, is to pack a Chinook full of Seals and send them into the fight, at night. Despite todays hit movies, SEALs and SF are really not at their best as a platoon sized infantry element in an open battle.
Its a misuse of SF and SEAL units. Its crappy use of the rangers that got into trouble.
They aren’t as sexy, but regular army or marine formations, with proper supporting arms is the answer to a fight like that. Not a SF or SEAL platoon.
Its the recent disease of everything needing to be spec ops, and done on the cheap.
