Obama stonewalls probe into deadly SEAL Team 6 helicopter crash, watchdog says
The Washington Times ^ | 08/05/2015 | Rowan Scarborough

The Obama administration is violating a judge’s order to turn over documents in the Aug. 6, 2011, shootdown of a U.S. helicopter — call sign Extortion 17 — that killed members of SEAL Team 6 in Afghanistan, a watchdog group is charging.

On the fourth anniversary of the worst one-day loss of military life in the war on terror, families of the dead say they are aghast that the government will not honor basic requests under the Freedom of Information Act.

“It has now been four years since Extortion 17 was shot down,” said Doug Hamburger, whose Army air crew son, Patrick, was one of the 30 Americans killed. “I find it quite disturbing that the government is not willing to give us the answers we deserve. I find it very irritating that we will not question the Afghans about their knowledge of what took place that night.”

If the judge had any balls he would sign arrest warrants and have the US Marshals start arresting DOJ, DOD, NSA, CIA lawyers and Dept. heads.

I’m sure the Republicans that ignored it for 4 years now will keep ignoring it as long as they get votes.

Lesser evil you know. It’s good. Principle is bad. No matter what.

The Obama Regime quickly became an Ongoing Criminal Enterprise once he came into office in 2009. It has only gotten worse and more corrupt as time has gone on.

I’m thinking Obama et al were just the “bagmen”. The Afghans wanted blood and he looked the other way as the mission got knowingly compromised and the right palms greased.

You can say anything you wish, but the most likely explanation is that the enemy was trying to shoot down helicopters and they managed to shoot down one.

If it were proven ironclad true to where even the typical dim nut could figure it out, the wun would be immune and protected. Half the people in this country would probably love him anyway.

The judge is sitting on things, too. The whole dang system is corrupt.

He and Jarrett arranged for them to be on that helicopter and informed the Afghans. The palms were greased by the soldiers’ own tax dollars.

Good evening.

Why do I get the impression that 0bama, and his administration view half of the American public as enemies? There is much circumstantial evidences to support that statement.

If anyone in the House of Representatives is listening, it would be a good idea to impeach 0bama now. Why? Tie him, Valarie Jarrett, and the White House staff up until his term is finished.

Heck, it may save the country.
