U.S. Navy SEALs, like the teams that killed Osama bin Laden, are grateful for nation's show of support but are growing angry with the continued focus on their operation, tactics, and tools, claiming it could jeopardize future raids and their safety.
"My friends in the community tell me they're very glad for the bit of attention they got," said former Pentagon deputy undersecretary Jed Babbin, "but at some point the best way to help them is to stop. You guys in the press have done a good job, but stop for God's sake, stop." [See photos of the reaction to bin Laden's death.]
The latest straw came when CBS revealed that the members of Special Warfare Development Group, formerly SEAL Team Six, wore helmet cams into bin Laden's lair. For many, that was a detail too far and could lead those being targeted by the military to somehow deploy countermeasures.
And Washington Whispers this week reported on two blogs that identified the type of gun the SEALs likely used to kill bin Laden, the HK416 .
"Anything further that comes out," added Babbin, a sponsor of the Special Operations Warfare Foundation, "could damage their operational security, maybe reveal tricks of the trade or even endanger their families."

The same MSM that doesn't cover Egyptians murdering Christians and burning their churches?
The same MSM that writes whiny stories about the poor MILLIONS of arabs "displaced" and have a "right to return"( when Grand Pooftah of Jerusalem/Hassini/pro Nazi's and others forced their own arabs OUT of Israel with promises it would be temporary, and then they lost five major wars and still augment the number of "displaced, from once 100,000, to 250,000, to over a million to this weeks news it's really 5,000,000 displaced real palestinian( name formed in 1964[by Arafart, nobel peace prize dude that nce disemboweled a pregnant womans child while alive] when Obama[nobel prize whiner that is pro-abortion even when child is poking their heads out of the womb?] was almost conceived during the Selma march...or there abouts) arabs that lived in lil ole Israel before the Joooos kicked 'em out?
The same MSM that is pro Hamas/al Fatah, Terrorist State? The same MSM that continually lies and covers Obama's many blunders, hatreds, complete racism, complete financial war against America, forced American banks to bow to communist China...the list is too long?
The same MSM that seemingly has stopped reporting completely on the FUBAR Libya is, the illegality of bombing a country in a civil war, and so many two faced lies no one understands why the ASmerican military used 1/2 billion in bombs with no apparent outcome and Obama completely bypased congress going to the UN?
The same MSM that seems to have a love affair wih CAIR, HAMAS, Mooslum Brat-Hood, faulty reporting, complacency or outright libel and malice toward "TEA baggers extremists" and other "Right wing Extremist Agenda?"
The same MSM that has virtually ignored the FUBAR by prematurely pulling out( sorrry sounds like a sex move) of Iraq and not posting the DEAD fallen warriors daily like they did when Bush was in office?
The same MSM oowned by Soros and has created a ful attack group very similar in comparison to the multiple lawyers running up to Alaska to find dirt, subvert and call Palin everything from a two bit whore to attacks in the media on her developmentally disabled child?
Wait there's more, some one help me with this list. The fourth estate is no more. It's worse that radio Moscow, sounds more like Tokyo Rose, Axis Sally,Hanoi Hannah, Baghdad Bob( hee hee), Keith Olbermann no, Keith Olbermann, Christine Amapour, and more.
Oh it's bad and the SEAL's deserve anonymity or it's just one more treasonous act spewed not just by journalists but leaked by the State Dept, the WH or the DOJ.
Basically, it seems Obama wants to be king as he tears the constitution, weakens our armed forces, tries to make our vets looks incapable of carrying firearms, forces the military to hire homosexuals, tells lies about the Mexican border and told Mexican crowd he will fight "enemies" that are against illegals and anti( illegal BTW) "sanctuary cities. Yes,, some one will hound the SEAL's until they find a name, anyone, but looking for "SEAL team six is a laugher, no such number, ...that's one good move that has even fooled military buffs, as Marcinko's Team six was gone back in the 80's. Unless it wasn't and if it wasn't then these people spewing the name are all aiding and abetting top secret info and the security of the soldiers, their families, and the whole of American military!
WH Co-Op?
Yeah and Biden leaking what exact special forces and the unit used was atrocious. The Obama admin milking this because his internal polls show he has lost his own base is unamerican.
I don’t blame them. Their names will eventually be leaked.
I see it coming. There is NO honor in DC with this moronic bunch!
It’s too bad that he wasn’t entirely right, and the US and UK had just let Hitler and Stalin duke it out.
What do you suppose the staff of the Company's Abbottobad branch office were up to before and during the big event?
Nothing is out of bounds when getting 0bama Bin Lying re-elected.
Or, I-bama as i like to call him..:)
the SEALS went after the wrong obama .....i mean osama ....did i sau obama ....i keep getting them confused because they are both intent on the destruction of the USA
I guess the Obama admin hears this loud and clear
Carney Ducks off Camera for Todays Briefing

I did not keep track but I do recall an ABC Seal’s exclusive leaking sensitive material. Which paper leaked that the seals wore cameras on their helmets? Well...I’d say the nitwitted , unprofessional Obama admin leaked it with their LOOK AT US situation room picture they released. Hillary is just as unprofessional as all of the Obama admin. I am so sick of hearing THE INSIDER garbage that the Clinton’s are non progressives that really feel our pain.
To the First Idiot it’s all about politics and re-election no matter who is destroyed.
This also goes to prove the existing claim that Democrats put national security at the back of the line. They simply cannot be trusted with it.
Nope. Back then they would have been eliminated where they stood.

He handed over command of Six after his 2 or 3 years were up.
See post 93. Which ever candidate in 2012 comes right out and states how unprofessional the big mouths of the Obama admin were in handling OBL; they will be the nominee. Something tells me all will be scared to dare say anything about thewon as they will be afraid to speak on such a delicate matter or that they may look partisan or racist.
The delicious irony there is that the top name on any arrest warrant the UN scum might draw up would have to be Barack Obama.
