Can anyone tell me why we didn’t take Osama alive?

If enhanced interrogation techniques work well, why wouldn’t we subject bin Laden to those same techniques? He certainly must have known quite a bit.

This is a serious question. I know many FReepers are in the military or in the intel fields. Any help would be appreciated.

“the greatest military operation in recent history began”

Sensationalizing.

I believe that Mr. Obama is in descent

If other sources are reliable, then the 'powers-that-be' got VP Joe into the situation room ahead of time.

Something is in the wind up there!

Why did Obama capture/kill Osama on Sunday??
 
Because he had to overide his negative polls numbers and the bad publicity resulting from Trump forcing him to release yet another birth certificate. This was THE worst week in Obama's presidential history. (So far)
 
And get this. Obama COULD have ordered the hit a few days earlier. But he didn't. Why? Because it would have interferred with the Royal Wedding.
 
You think I'm kidding?
 
Which only goes to show Obama is not a total self-centered narcissistic jerk. Because - even though he and the Wookie were not invited to the wedding - he did have the good graces not to overshadow the Royal Nuptials by OBL's death.

Timing is everything, folks. And this was not a military strike. This was political.
 
Pure and simple.

"If that's true, why the reported hesitation under Bush, when it sounded like they knew where Bin Laden was near the Afgan-Pakistan border and could have captured/killed him but were prevented from doing do?"

I think that was clintin before 9/11.

Based on what I’m reading, either this “obama didn’t make the decision” thing will break like Watergate, or it is all BS.

If the former, the interesting times we are living are about to get more “interesting” by several orders of magnitude.

Interesting change in that particular department. Just makes you distrust Obama all the more.

Hit squads of specialist Navy Seals -
formerly named by the left and ‘news pundits’ as ‘Cheney’s personal assassination rings’.

You put all those stories together and it looks like Obama was punked. Thank God for the real adults in this admin and the military brass that had the good sense to put the US and our national security over poll numbers!

One can only pray that this story checks out and sees the light of day. I know that is a tall order with the current MSM, but maybe just maybe those around this poser have had enough and are ready to throw him under the bus. Somebody in that inner circle has a big enough ego to leak the truth when Obama gets credit they know he does not deserve.
