Special operations sources have claimed that the terror leader was shot more than one hundred times in the fatal 2011 raid.
A new report from a website known within the intelligence and armed services community claims that the sheer number of times that Osama bin Laden was shot is the reason why the government has never released photos of his dead body.
Citing two confidential sources, The Special Operations Forces Situation Report tells how 'operator after operator took turns dumping magazines-worth of ammunition into Bin Ladens body'.
The site goes on to argue that while the Navy SEALs may have felt it was 'morally, legally, and ethically appropriate to shoot the body a few times to ensure that he is really dead and no longer a threat,' that does not justify the extent of this damage.
'What happened on the Bin Laden raid is beyond excessive. The level of excess shown was not about making sure that Bin Laden was no longer a threat. The excess was pure self-indulgence,' author Jack Murphy writes.

Sounds like Bin Laden got off easier in death than Ambassador Chris Stevens did in 9/11 Benghazi!! Oh that’s right, I forgot...the lazy lib news media doesn’t like to talk about or investigate the death of Americans. Sorry.
Freepers seen posting hundreds of copies of this story on Free Republic.
Uh huh, and then Obammy gave him a respectful Islamic funeral even though Osama didn’t follow “real Islam”.
I hope one of the bullets had my name on it!!
Just now logged on saw this .. don’t believe it for a second.
**’What happened on the Bin Laden raid is beyond excessive. The level of excess shown was not about making sure that Bin Laden was no longer a threat. The excess was pure self-indulgence,’**
And what is wrong with that? Libs love to vicariously kill Hitler, by dumping dozens of bullets in him, in INGLOIOUS BASTERDS, but a real case of someone doing the same upsets them?
Who released this information, and why?
Contempt for our military has never been higher, and is still climbing.
Article names special ops sources but the article does not say if they are enemy special ops sources. Has to be enemy special ops sources. I did not bother to read the article till your mention of "unnamed sources". Made me take a second look. Thank You.
It should have been one bullet for every person he murdered.
They could have gone medieval muslim on him and stuck his head on a pole, with a sign saying next!
This whole thing is unmitigated BS.
Our SEALS have more operational discipline than this.
I don’t think so. Why would they.
I’d have fed him alive to a herd of hogs.
I expect ole bin’s body is in the white house freezer so obamma mamba jamma lenin khomeini can worship it daily..
One bullet for every American he killed on 9/11. Sounds fair to me.
What and then have waste all that good bacon.
IF this was done - and by no means do I believe it was - it was on orders to so mess up the body that easy ID would be difficult. Probably because it wasn’t really OBL (since they actually got him years ago at Tora Bora). SF are pros, they don’t lose control like this. Let alone waste ammo on a combat mission.
> I’m not buying this story.......This was a get in, get the job done then get the heck out. They’re not going to stand around emptying magazines when there’s intel and computers to gather up.......Especially after violating Pakistani air space and crashing a helicopter in the process.
BINGO...
