Hersh also said the military was controlled by a cabal of Christian zealots who wanted a global 10th Crusade against all Muslims.
I’m not saying it’s false or not, but he’s made some outlandish statements before.
And that's bad how....?
I’m not saying it’s bad or not, it’s just clearly not true given the amount PC garbage the military does.
And yes Hersh saying ‘the military was controlled by a cabal of Christian zealots who wanted a global 10th Crusade against all Muslims.’ Reads like vintage Sy Hersh when he has imbibed a generous quantity of Single Malt Scotch.
Do we really need to know the truth of the bin Laden raid? I’m happy with the way things happened in Zero Dark-Thirty. I don’t think anyone should be publishing operations details about anything.
ONE OF THE GREAT QUOTES OF OUR LIFETIME:
“I saw Osama bin Laden standing on two feet, there was no ISI up there. I shot him in the head twice and then I shot him again in the face while he was on the ground. “
Is "hostage" the Urdu word for honored and welcome guest?
Oh not criticizing you!
Just the attitude of Hersh, that he’s Shocked! I tell you Shocked! that the military might have *Gasp* Christians in its command structure.
Oh The Horror
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Do you think that’s a better version than “No Easy Day”?
I’m not satisfied with either “version”, mostly because I don’t think either are factual.
I do think the whole truth about the “Extortion 17” mission should come out sooner, rather than later.
I guess our elected and appointed civilian government entities get to make those decisions...with the support of a number of my fellow citizens, regardless of the truth.
You may be happy with lies.
I’m not.
If you believe the Bin Ladin story, our military flew 200+ miles south, had a 40 min firefight, bagged Bin Ladin’s body, flew 200+ miles north, unloaded the body, conducted DNA and facial recognition testing, re-bagged the body, flew 800-1000 miles south to meet up with a ship, unloaded the body, made evryone go below decks, prepared the body for burial at sea with muslim rituals.
All in 8 hours.
Agreed, it’s GREAT line! I loved it!!! (Of course the: “Then I dumped a full mag into that muzzie POS and the last few rounds sawed his damn head off and as I watched it roll down the hallway, a Doggy chomped into it and started using it for a chew toy” would have been nice also.....)
None of this would be relevant if the administration would keep top secret level information top secret. No one needs to know how it was done and the SEAL shouldn’t be yakking either. The only SEALs I want to hear from can’t speak for themselves. They were killed in a helo crash while on the Extortion 17 mission.

I believe every word of the Warren Report, so the official story of Bin Laden is easy to swallow for me.
PS I’m looking to buy a bridge
The one thing I believe is the Pakistanis were totally aware where Ben Ladin was.
If there are a lot of Christian leaders in our military, Odunga will eventually get rid of them.
My Father commented on his battalion in WWII. He said all his officers were “fine Christian men”.
AGREE 100%
Your comment is racist. Just kidding, good points.
If the Seal hit OBL in the Head Twice and gave him one in the Face, how could they use Facial Recognition to ID him?
I’m thinking the Sopranos and Pussy on the Yacht.
Then they dumped his Body in the Ocean. Must be where they got the idea, or Guido Fishing on Lake Tahoe.
