Navy SEAL's father: Obama sent my son to his death
Tells Michael Savage 'they knew something was up' Published: 10 hours ago
The father of one of the 25 Navy SEALs killed in August 2011 when their Chinook helicopter was shot down by the Taliban in Afghanistan, told talk-host Michael Savage he believes the U.S. government sent his son and his colleagues to their deaths.
After Vice President Joe Biden revealed that SEAL Team 6 carried out the operation that killed Osama bin Laden in May 2011, Strange said the members of his son’s team gave startling indications to their families they were about to meet their demise.
Charles Strange, the father of slain SEAL Michael Strange, told Savage Wednesday night that in June 2011, on at least three separate occasions his son grabbed him by the bicep and announced that he had prepared his will.
The bewildered father finally was able to find out what it all meant.
Michael Strange, his father recalled, said, “Something’s going on with the team. Somebody’s leaking things out. Something’s going on.”
Savage, reacting with emotion, asked: “Your son knew he was being sent to his death?”
“They knew,” Strange replied. “They knew something was up. Every one of them.”
Listen to the interview with Michael Savage.
Other families of the victims have reported similar experiences with their sons the last time they saw them, Strange said.

Oh brother. Cindy Sheehan had suspicions too. We bashed that woman for years. I am not going to make this guy a saint because we have a different president in the same war. His son volunteered just like Cindy Sheehan’s did. Both parents need to shut the hell up! I know we all are 100 percent partisan in our thoughts but this guys is basically Cindy Sheehan 10 years later.
I understand your point, but do you think you could actually tell someone like these men what to do? All the SpecOps guys I’ve talked to are extremely strong willed. They probably despise Obama, but they don’t want to leave their fellow warriors. They are family.
No, I don’t. As long as they are aware they are putting themselves at risk for a President who could give one crap about them, nor anything that happens to this country that is bad. In his mind, this country deserves whatever bad befalls it.
Whether they are special forces or regulars, the one thing that our country has always differentiated us from other armies like the Nazis, the Russians, the Chinese, etc. is the morality and conscience of its soldiers coupled with being on the side of “right and good.”
This is no longer the case.
I’m in agreement with you. I went in the USAF in 2001. I wouldn’t join now if I was 12 years younger. PC, ROE, and frequent deployments are destroying our military. Fighting for savages isn’t helpful either. Demoralization is the current norm.
You're not understanding the difference. Cindy Sheehan was saying Bush killed her son just because of the war Bush started. This guy is saying his son was killed because the administration blew it by giving out unnecessary details of Osama's killing, thereby putting an unnecessary target on his son's unit of Seal Team 6, the well lit target the radicals gladly shot at.
Generalities versus specific dereliction of duty. Big difference.
If they were ‘cremated’ the families have no way of knowing even if they died that day. They may have simply been turned over to any nearby warlord for torture.
Cremation ensures there will never be closure for these families.
Ohaha knew that too.
Yes, I did not understand the response either?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Good point!
Michael Hastings’ family received a pile of ashes as well.
Why on earth would you say something like that about these people?
Other than the loss of a son, this man has NOTHING in common with that wacko Cindy Sheehan.
I would be willing to bet that every dollar of the $ 10,000 came from the U.S. Government, courtesy of the Democrat Party via one barrack Obama. But he, [Obama] is the people’s messiah.
You think it was ok to put that whole team on the same chopper, and for Biden to leak who was responsible for the Bin Ladden raid?
These men should have all been brought home after that mission or the very least, they should have been dispersed.
From the instant I heard of their deaths, my radar went up. Something really wasn’t right. Now, we have seen many more members of that mission die or “commit suicide”. Are we and this man supposed to just play the role of dumb sheep?
sadly - I’ve recently come to the same opinion.
Although many serving now joined before the mess in DC took charge.
“As WND reported in May, Strange recalled to the National Press Club in Washington his experience with President Obama at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware Aug. 9, 2011, when the remains of 30 U.S. troops were brought home from Afghanistan.
He leaned over to whisper into President Obama’s ear to ask if there would be a congressional investigation into the death of his son.
President Obama whispered back, “We will look very, very, very deep into this.”
But Strange said he hadn’t heard a word since that encounter.”
“Charles and MaryAnn Strange lost their 25-year-old son, who had been a Navy Seal for 6 years. Mr. Strange made inquiries as to the whereabouts of the black box. He was told it washed away in a flood. His response was, “in Afghanistan?” After repeated questions, Mr. Strange was told everything was in “the book”. After requesting a copy of said book, he was presented with a book with no ink in it. When he questioned this and requested a true copy, he was told the original had been burned. They were then given a disk. Unfortunately for Mr. and Mrs. Strange, the disk was full of white outs. “
Cryptologist Technician (Collection) Petty Officer 1st Class (Expeditionary Warfare Specialist) Michael J. Strange, 25, of Philadelphia, Pa.
Charles Strange told CNN affiliate WPVI that three SEALs delivered news of his son’s death to his Mayfair, Pennsylvania, home Saturday. Michael Strange, a 25-year-old petty officer, was on his third tour in Afghanistan, and his brother said Michael – a member of SEAL Team 6 - always wanted to be in the military. Sources told the station that in addition to his parents and two siblings, Michael Strange also left behind a fiancée. He had just purchased a home in Virginia.
“Michael loved this country, he loved Philadelphia, he loved North Catholic [High School, where he graduated], he loved Mayfair, he loved his friends.” his father said.

The SEALS who died in the crash were not on the Bin Laden raid. Same team, but different men.
Bttt
If these men were deliberately set up, as this father believes, there can be no place in Hell to severe as a "reward" for those responsible for their betrayal.
