Perhaps a bargaining chip was just played.

There's no way that anyone on the US side would be in on that sort of thing. Even Hillary!'s crew at the State Dept. As much as I despise them, I'm the first to acknowledge that they aren't f*cking insane (beg Admin's indulgence for that one).

I don't even think Karzai would be nuts enough to initiate a blood feud (which is where this would instantly lead) with the SEALs.

And then, there was the USS Cole when bill clinton needed to pay off mubarak to come to Sharm to negotiate the *peace* deal between arafat and Israel because of the EgyptAir downing. clinton wanted his piss prize. Tit for tat. clinton didn’t give a damn then, and bam don’t give a fn\damn now. The military follows orders. They don’t ask why...even when they should.

I doubt Hillary was involved, for the same reasons you state.

Her audacious, hopeful boss, on the other hand... everything else (and I mean everything else) he has done, every decision and every policy and every act and every initiative, has benefited the spread of global Islam. Everything.

All I'm saying is, this can potentially fit into a disturbing pattern. See my tagline.
