“I mean attributing this to some directed plot @ Seals gleaned from Scranton Joes’s blathering?
Can someone ‘splain to me?”

I’m not going to say it’s a fact, but the deadliest attack of this nature, coming so soon after the info was divulged raises serious questions.

(Also, I don’t think we know how much info the Paks gathered and leaked about the downed stealth helo in the OBL kill. I wonder if the Seals had to stop using some of the technology because of that- and it certainly doesn’t help matters with what Biden and the others said).

With respect, I disagree.

The house in question was the ‘wrong house.’

All 25 were on the same gunship/Chinook.

We took in a Haqqani earlier this week. Karzai’s brother was recently killed. And Bin Laden was taken out. We are ‘negotiating’ with the Taliban.

My opinion is actually that someone has wanted better poll numbers for a certain person, and this was the price. 25 SEALS, 30 Americans. At that, among the best of us.

Politicians do that—betray. They’ll sacrifice whatever they can, including you, and smile and kiss your baby. All for power, money, and more and more. If you know someone(s) who’s been betrayed by a politician or his/her henchmen, you know what I mean.

“Its time for the firestorm from hell to rain down upon every village in Afghanistan where there MIGHT be a single taliban”

From your keyboard to God’s ears!

Stupid thread. Talibanis shoot rpgs at everything that flies and they have little clue and even less care about what Biden might have muttered.

Good God, I guess we’re to believe they were just at the wrong place at the wrong time, right? Garsh how many ‘accidental’ deaths can we attribute to the Clintons?

That’s a new one for me. I admit I wasn’t paying as much attention back then as I do now. But I did know that bringing in military staff and tanks from Ft. Hood was a HUGE violation of posse comitatus.

I am sure al Quada/Taliban intelligence had these guys pegged and there are plenty of jihad sympathizers in the Afghan government and military. I also bet that the missile used to shoot down the helicopter was furnished by if not made in Iran. Certainly Obama administration leaks made this attack far easier.

No. It’s stupid to believe that talibanis are only shooting at helicopters identified by Biden.

The reality is that they shoot rpgs at everything that flies near them.

I think it’s a little more complicated than that.

In a word, YES. Biden should pay for this — and Obama too, for nominating the imbecile.
