KUHNER: Who betrayed Navy SEAL Team 6?
Washington Times ^ | Saturday August 10, 2013 | Jeffery Kuhner

Posted on 08/10/2013 7:27:40 AM PDT by Bigtigermike

What really happened to Navy SEAL Team 6? In August 2011, the elite special forces unit suffered the worst battlefield calamity in its history. A Taliban fighter shot down a Chinook helicopter carrying 22 Navy SEAL Team 6 members in Afghanistan. All 38 persons on board — the Navy SEAL warriors, other U.S. military personnel and seven Afghan soldiers — were killed. Grieving family members have been demanding answers. They may now get some as Congress finally opens an investigation.

Navy SEAL Team 6 has attained international prominence for one reason: They were responsible for killing Osama bin Laden. They are American heroes. Yet, their own government betrayed them. Several days after the bin Laden operation, Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. — in a pathetic attempt to spike the football and gloat — publicly revealed their central role in the raid. His revelations put a giant target on the backs of every Navy SEAL Team 6 member.

[.....]

Apparently, someone tipped them off that the SEALs were coming; the helicopter was attacked from three sides in a coordinated ambush. The U.S. military claimed that the Chinook was blown to pieces by a shoulder-fired missile, in which everyone on board was burned beyond recognition. Hence, senior military officials ordered the American bodies cremated without the prior approval of their family members.

The military’s narrative, however, is false. Charles Strange, whose son, Michael, died during the attack, says he viewed the pictures of the crash site. “I saw Mike’s dead body,” Mr. Strange said in an interview. “It was clearly recognizable. He was clutching his gun. He wasn’t burned to a crisp. Why did they cremate my boy? They didn’t need to do that. Something’s not right.”

Ill winds were blowing back then, too. It was all lies. Everything since day one with this clown has been one big lie and no one in power is calling him on it.

WTH has Congress abandoned our nation to this depraved adminstration?

That goes back to Hillary and her stash of FBI files. Blackmail on the members themselves and their families brings about amazing results.

How does this country survive more than 3 more years of this guy?

It won't. Who says he's leaving after 3 years.

“no one in power is calling him on it.”

We the people are the power and we are calling him on it, unfortunately WE have been living in exile since 2008.

Could it also be that 'Nakoula' guy (video creater) is a CIA informant/operative who helped develop the video lie by overdubbing his video? What does he know? Jailed for a YEAR for a probation violation??? Yeah right.

Is he really in jail or living it up on some tropical island or six feet under?

I highly doubt Team Seal 6 would go along in the “killing” of OBL...but IF they did (and that’s BIG BIG IF), it would make sense for them to be eliminated.

A body double would not make pragmatic sense.

I disagree, and I think your reasoning is off. If the raid didn’t kill Osama, why would anyone have sanctioned SEAL Team Six? No, their death is the proof they got the right guy.


Or proof that they found out they got a double or someone else and it was all a sham. They knew it was a sham.

Osama Bin Laden had four confirmed body doubles prior to 2001.(open source confirmed for those who follow the available data).

IMHO, the original’s remains have been a brown spot in a cave for over a decade. The body doubles have been usefull for a “cause” on several occasions. One was captured, one surrendered, and one was killed. Of the two in custody at one time, no further information has surfaced regarding their current status, to my knowledge.
Granted that I lost intense interest shortly after Tora Bora.
By my count, that still makes three body doubles “out there”.
And it's also possible the original was not a brown spot in that cave, but that's highly doubtful.

I bet that Putin knows.Perhaps he'll tell us.

HEre is what convinced me.

Top Government Insider: Bin Laden Died in 2001, 9/11 A False Flag

The most recent (4 May 2011) story is – if true – perhaps the most damning and explosive, from a man who was appointed to sensitive and influential positions in the Secretary of State and Defense departments by five presidents going back to Richard Nixon. This story deserves an extended citation (link to full story at the end):

“Top US government insider Dr. Steve R. Pieczenik, a man who held numerous different influential positions under three different Presidents and still works with the Defense Department, shockingly told The Alex Jones Show yesterday that Usama Bin Laden died in 2001 and that he was prepared to testify in front of a grand jury how a top general told him directly that 9/11 was a false flag inside job.

“Pieczenik cannot be dismissed as a “conspiracy theorist”. He served as the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State under three different administrations, Nixon, Ford and Carter, while also working under Reagan and Bush senior, and still works as a consultant for the Department of Defense. A former US Navy Captain, Pieczenik achieved two prestigious Harry C. Solomon Awards at the Harvard Medical School as he simultaneously completed a PhD at MIT.

“Recruited by Lawrence Eagleburger as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Management, Pieczenik went on to develop, “the basic tenets for psychological warfare, counter terrorism, strategy and tactics for transcultural negotiations for the US State Department, military and intelligence communities and other agencies of the US Government,” while also developing foundational strategies for hostage rescue that were later employed around the world.

“Pieczenik also served as a senior policy planner under Secretaries Henry Kissinger, Cyrus Vance, George Schultz and James Baker and worked on George W. Bush’s election campaign against Al Gore. His record underscores the fact that he is one of the most deeply connected men in intelligence circles over the past three decades plus.

“The character of Jack Ryan, who appears in many Tom Clancy novels and was also played by Harrison Ford in the popular 1992 movie Patriot Games, is also based on Steve Pieczenik.

“Back in April 2002, over nine years ago, Pieczenik told the Alex Jones Show that Bin Laden had already been “dead for months,” and that the government was waiting for the most politically expedient time to roll out his corpse. Pieczenik would be in a position to know, having personally met Bin Laden and worked with him during the proxy war against the Soviets in Afghanistan back in the early 80′s.

“Pieczenik said that Usama Bin Laden died in 2001, “Not because special forces had killed him, but because as a physician I had known that the CIA physicians had treated him and it was on the intelligence roster that he had marfan syndrome,” adding that the US government knew Bin Laden was dead before they invaded Afghanistan.”

Marfan syndrome is a degenerative genetic disease for which there is no permanent cure. The illness severely shortens the life span of the sufferer.

“He died of marfan syndrome, Bush junior knew about it, the intelligence community knew about it,” said Pieczenik, noting how CIA physicians had visited Bin Laden in July 2001 at the American Hospital in Dubai.

“He was already very sick from marfan syndrome and he was already dying, so nobody had to kill him,” added Pieczenik, stating that Bin Laden died shortly after 9/11 in his Tora Bora cave complex.

“Pieczenik explained that he was not a liberal, a conservative or a tea party member, merely an American who is deeply concerned about the direction in which his country is heading.”

(The website Above Top Secret is now running the story of a nearly complete media blackout relating to Dr. Pieczenik’s story.)[xix]

Most of this information is known to Fox News, The New York Times, The Washington Post and the administrations of both the GW Bush and Obama. If the subject were less emotional and complex, hoardes of reporters would already have torn the official version to shreds. But the way Obama’s administration packaged and released the stories was meant to – and did – plunge all of us into the fiery picture of bloody heroics in the made-for-movie saga of a continuing fight for Good against Evil. The high temperature of the story directs us toward uncritical acceptance, along with admiration and gratitude for the courage of both our Navy SEALS and – not incidentally – President Obama.

With our leaders operating within the supercharged atmosphere inside the Beltway, they live in a setting of secrecy conducive to creating True Believers. The danger of such closed circles was perhaps put best by Albert Speer, who was the only Nazi to confess, then to write clearly and forcefully just how the process worked. This is not meant to compare our government with the Nazis – just to say the presence of so much secrecy easily traps the key players inside a hall of mirrors:

In normal circumstances, people who turn their backs on reality are soon set straight by the mockery and criticism of those around them, which makes them aware they have lost credibility. In the Third Reich there were no such correctives, especially for those who belonged to the upper stratum. On the contrary, every self-deception was multiplied as in a hall of distorting mirrors, becoming a repeatedly confirmed picture of a fantastical dream world, which no longer bore any relationship to the grim outside world. In those mirrors I could see nothing but my own face reproduced many times over.[xx]

Our whole country is now engulfed by an incendiary story that reeks of dangerous propaganda. It’s time we stopped shouting “Fire!” and began shouting “Theater!”

A body double would not make pragmatic sense.

Neither would a right handed fat OBL that the CIA used as a double years ago. Nothing has to make sense. It only has to be believed. All that matters and all that has ever mattered with this regime is numbers. What are zeros numbers. Its all they worry about.

If he's popular he won't be impeached and he can keep fundraising. That's all that matters. It's his job from now on. Along with giving the occasional teleprompter speech until he is gone.

According to what I read he was buried with 30 of his closest terror buddies given a gun salute and buried in an unmarked grave within 24 hours according to their whacked out traditions or customs.

it was all a sham. They knew it was a sham.

In my opinion, if the dead guy was a substitute and Team Seal 6 discovered the fake, someone had them eliminated so they couldn’t release the information.
