obama “hesitated” with the Seal 6 team and the somalis. Same crap here with bin laden.

This should reduce his “bump”. This guy is no leader - a girl scout leader is more decisive than he is.

From all indications, Ulsterman is a creation of the blogger Anthony Martin, who had a flameout on FR and is now bloggera non grata on FR.

Typical Dim pResident, he needs to see which way the wind is blowing before taking a position, like Bubba.

>>Obama notwithstanding, but if any of this from Uman is true, Clinton, Panetta, and Daley should be arrested, as well as any compliant JCS member or staff. We can’t having coups or the appearances of such in the United States.<<

Actually, the point is made in one of the sources that Urkel WAS vetted by the military. They know EXACTLY where he was born and may working under the paradigm that if he goes up against them, he gets nailed, publicly, for who he really is.

No, I’m talking about the hunt for Bin Laden after 9/11 and reports that he was reachable for capture but we were held back somehow from doing so.

Please see post 74 which was posted to you. All indications are that Ulsterman is the work of a blogger (Anthony Martin) who is no longer welcome on FR.

Please stop trying to post Ulsterman content. We'll just pull it if we see it.

So it is not a matter of whether or not he is accurate, but whether or not he is allowed here?

To: biggredd1; null and void
markknoller markknoller 6 minutes ago CIA Dir Leon Panetta says the Govt “always assumed from the beginning” that Osama bin-Laden would be killed in the US raid on his compound

But the WH said that bib Laden didn't have a gun and he didn't use a human shield. Was he a threat in some other way?

Panetta and others just assumed that bin Laden would be killed, or was it ordered that he was to be killed?

How about if you can take him alive, do it.

Or as null and void said, maybe we did...

Yeah, I finally got to that point. Thanks. I just stuck with the The Post and Email thing.

Should I do a search on anything I link to for his name embedded somewhere in the article?

The Obamanation had to wait until his Puppeteers and Handlers told him what to do and say! Is the Zero going to wait 16 hours to give the approval to launch a counterattack when there are incoming nuclear armed missiles from Russia, China, Iran or Pook-is-toon? Also, it’s reported that Obozo had been told in August of last year that Osama was living there and that he had deferred any action during at least 5 National Security Meetings where the Commanders and the head of the CIA had pleaded with him to take action before a leak would have caused Osama to disappear, much like all of Zero’s entire previous life and history!!! I can only surmise that Zero took this action knowing he had been forced to submit a false and fraudulent Birth Certificate and that his Poll Numbers were crashing as he acted like a petulant angry pre-teenager in the weeks leading up to this action. Zero is a immature, spoiled Brat that has never done a real days work in his life including his last two years of partying, jetting around in AF ONE, Golfing, and spending 24/7 with his boyfriend and playmate, Reggie Love! Pops! I meant to say Butler!!

In the end, though, I don’t think it mattered much. It sounds like the reason they didn’t go until Sunday was weather-related, so I don’t think it made much of a difference that 0bama gave the order on Saturday morning as opposed to Friday night.

If U'man is shooting straight (which I cannot confirm) then the delay wasn't 'weather related', although that is the public spin for said delay. Likewise, if this whole story be true, then the 'coup', such as it was, by Panetta wasn't against Obama personally, but against CoS Jarrett, who really should have stayed out of the decision-making loop to begin with.

Interesting times, if any of this is true, we shall see...

My only question is whether he waited 16 hours to decide whether to go after bin Laden at all (inexcusable),

Had to be that one because it's implied that they were ready to go, then he asked for more time to decide, and it was sixteen hours before he decided, so the men and equipment had to be ready well more than sixteen hours before he decided.

And I've read that the weather problem moved out of the area and didn't really prevent the operation from going earlier.

From my reading of the links b4 they were zotted, it would seem that each “source” was simply the same guy telling the same story on or to a different site.I think the author was exposed back around election day as a fraud, but if this story had any chance of being plausible, I stand by my statement that coups are not to be tolerated, defended or explained away. They are the ultimate violation of the Constitution. See Outer Limits 100 Days of the Dragon.

Yep. Essentially we have a single story being shared with other sites who put their own, uh, flavor to it and it appears to be from multiple sources.

Kinda like AP.
