About a 30 minute read.

This article promoted a HULU release of the documentary, "3212 UN-REDACTED," on Nov 11, so if you have HULU, it should be up; otherwise, the article lays a lot out on the table.

Considering that neither the Pentagon nor ABC can be trusted, I don’t know what to do with this.

Green Beret's gone rogue?

Must have refused to use the correct pronouns.

Just a few patriots out “good will” hunting.

Nothing to see here, move along now.

Buahahahahahahahahaahah!

I get it now !

The 4 refused the jab......earning an immediate “rogue” classification. On top of that , not one of them is “transgender.”

Milley is going silly.

One must remember that all Flag Officers are political appointees that must be approved by the Senate.

“...they faced a 10-to-1 ratio of jihadi fighters to American troops”

Not a fair fight! (for the jihadi fighters)

I have mixed reactions to this story: one one hand, the official reports did lay it all at the team's leadership's feet, blaming the deaths on them. And on the other hand, the team did fight bravely against an overwhelming force and should be honored.

Where the critics are correct - that the team didn't have adequate training for what was an obvious situation (that the enemy could and did marshall 100 fighters within one hour to attack them, never stay in one place longer than a few minutes if you don't have defensive works in place, and never use the same route to retire.)

Where the leaders were wrong was that a small unit without fire support is extremely vulnerable and they had to know that going in. So, they gambled that a tragedy wouldn't happen and lost.

The survivors were very fortunate that the French were available when US forces weren't.

“...but it was all offered as fact by U.S. generals ....”

I trust the current set of US so-called generals, like I trust the fibbies—NEVER!!
