BOMBSHELL: Was the downing of SEAL Team 6's CH-47 helicopter an inside job?
May 10, 2013 | GeorgeWashingtonsGhost

Posted on 05/10/2013 12:33:21 PM PDT by GeorgeWashingtonsGhost

Fox News' Megan Kelly interviewed the parents of SEAL Team 6 member Aaron Vaughn who perished in the tragic crash of a CH-47 helicopter on August 06 2011 in Afghanistan. During this interview the Vaughs stated that this crash was a direct result of traitorous rules of engagement ordered by the Obama administration that have consistently proven deadly to our troops (It should be noted here that "Over Twice as Many U.S. Soldiers Have Died in Afghanistan Under Obama In 3 1/2 Years Than Did Under Bush in 8 Years..")

Although the exact number of SEALs killed has been misstated in the media, it is known that 17 SEALs died in this crash. The other 8 American dead include soldiers/special operators and airmen (See Below). There were also 7 Afghan troops aboard the helicopter.

Why was a commercial grade, vintage 1960's helicopter used for this mission? Why wasn't the more heavily armored military grade version, MH-47 used? Why were so many SEALs placed aboard one helicopter, rather than two? Were these SEALs deliberately sent into an ambush for the purpose of silencing them? Was this an 'inside job' by Afghans in retaliation for SEAL Team 6's Osama Bin Laden raid?

Perhaps the most stunning revelation from this interview is that the names of the 7 Afghans placed aboard this helicopter as shown on the flight manifest are NOT the same individuals who actually died in this crash.. The 7 Afghans slated for this flight were SWAPPED with different Afghans at the last minute yet the flight manifest was not changed to reflect the swap. Was the helicopter downed by the Afghans on board this flight? Did the Afghans involved with this flight tip off their comrades down range to plan their strike on this helicopter? Did the Afghans influence the decision to swap their occupants with their own hit team inside?

The Vaugn family is outraged that Vice President Biden outed SEAL Team 6 as the group who executed the Osama Bin Laden raid. She said that because of Biden's 'leak', SEAL Team 6 had "a target put on their backs". Mrs. Vaughn had been personally warned by her own son via telephone to "wipe her social media clean". Mr. Vaughn suggested Joe Biden be held accountable for his remarks which far surpass mere 'gaffes' and that have cost American troops their lives. "They sympathize with the enemy. They sympathize with the ideology" of the enemy, he said.

That has been going on for a long long time.

I recall at the time reading of many troublesome aspects of that mission. Wasn’t there also an issue with no backup bird available for SAR or fire support...something like that???

This is indicative of the weak sister we have for a CinC and his lapdogs. It's difficult for me to put in words the disdain I have for these people as it probably is for all of you.

Thanks for the link, Smooth.

Watched the first nine minutes and will definitely watch the remaining 3 hours. Kudos to Gen. Boykin and Rep. Ghomert, they’re some of the good guys.

Same with me, I’ve watched about the first 10 minutes, but plan to watch the whole thing.

>And all talk off “it’s over”, “nothing will come of it”, “he’s teflon” etc is to me like poison. Why do people talk like this? Because they want it to be over? They want to sound cynical and smart? To me it’s orc talk.<

One thing is for sure. If we the people do not get the Senate more balanced or, preferably, into a conservative majority, history shows us that nothing will be done to a democrat, liberal President. Think back to Clinton’s impeachment. There were democrat congress members who refused to even look at the evidence against Bill Clinton.

As long as the democrats are in power, the government will stay in its current, corrupt, state.

This Administration should NOT be ticking off Seals, CIA, DOD, Intelligence Community, or National Security personnell. It ain’t prudent.

I don’t see it as an inside job meaning the Obama administration. Possible but the more likely and obvious explanation is that Biden leaked the Seals out of incompetence and the Afghans identified them and took them out. Not buying this inside job theory.

‘Inside job’ also to mean the seven Afghans inside the helicopter. We were told it was shot down. From the inside, possibly.

When a bastahborl player says he’s queer, he rates a ‘phone call from the pretender, congratulating him for “courage” ....

Sure. From the perspective of a moral relativist who’s never mustered the balls if you’ll pardon the pun to um ‘front up’ if you’ll pardon another and/or to come clean about his own um odd-ness? The ball player’s brave!

(And He is still risen!)

OK. Yeah that kind of afghan “inside job” makes complete sense and appears to be what went down here.

An excellent video covering the background and memorial service at Bagram airfield where the Imam was allowed to pray for our troops' damnation, there's no excuse for that to have happened. All should view at least to the 2 hour 7 minute mark where the questions begin.

Heart wrenching segments by parents of three of the Navy SEALS lost and segments from retired flag officers and former SEALS extremely critical (full well deserved) of the Obama administration and our high ranking military officers.

Vaughns were on FOX again this morning with Tucker. Showed Mrs. Vaughn making the same clear statement....Obama cared more about the blood of our enemies than the blood of her son. She also stressed that her son thought his family was in danger as well. I’ve always thought it ridiculously strange that American’s would believe without proof that bin Laden was dead and buried at sea. What did SEAL Team 6 know?

"(It should be noted here that "Over Twice as Many U.S. Soldiers Have Died in Afghanistan Under Obama In 3 1/2 Years Than Did Under Bush in 8 Years..")"

DESPITE a very large increase in drone killings.

"I don’t see it as an inside job meaning the Obama administration. Possible but the more likely and obvious explanation is that Biden leaked the Seals out of incompetence and the Afghans identified them and took them out. Not buying this inside job theory."

I don't believe the conspiracy either. However, I do question why so many SpecOps personnel were on one bird. I also wonder why the Afgan personnel were changed at the last moment (if true).

I highly doubt that the golfing, campaigning, self-arrgandizing, sh*thead in our Oval Office is actually involved in every military operation. Yes, Biden should have kept his big mouth shut, but I believe it was just "wages of war" that brought down that Chinook.

Remember, they were going in to backup/rescue some trapped Rangers. So there were many ragheads in the area. Also, they have countless RPG's and probably shoulder Stinger missles.

However, again, I'm surprised SO many SEALs were on one plane. In my day, the commander of the operation would not have done so.

I know this is an old thread, but I’m gonna resurrect it anyway. As to “Navy Vet’s” comments, believe what you like, but there are way too many inconsistencies and violations of policy and TTP to buy any of this B.S. What really troubles me is how few people know anything about it. I’ve been asked a number of times why none of the guys on that raid have come out to speak about it. When I reply that virtually every one of them is dead, they’re astounded and ask, “How can that be?” I shake my head and walk away...
