They are trained to wait until the best oppurtunity presents itself. That is exactly what happened here.

With all due respect, you're blowing stuff out of your arse here.

By the statements in this article, the SEALs had multiple viable shots before they took the ones at the end. Byt the statements in other articles, the shots taken were at night at a pitching boat. I'm not a sniper or anything resembling a marksman, but if a SEAL team says they had shots and did not take them, it means they had confidence they could have hit the targets much earlier, and that should have been the priority, and NOT to wait for a gun to be pointed at the captain with intent to kill him.

By the statements in this article,

Yeah we know that everything printed is true. Have you ever thought the Navy is sounding out fake stories about this to confuse the pirates?

Well, like I said, that’s the way I see it. It looks like a perfectly calculated situation and the military played it just right...

I can’t say too much more than that... it was a great success...

Now that you're on the other side of it, you're still catching flack. :)
