The head of the CIA admitted yesterday that there was no live video footage of the raid on Osama bin Laden's compound as further doubts emerged about the US version of events.

The dishonesty and incompetence of this administration makes it hard to believe their story. How many times are they going to change one lie for another falsehood? They could screw up a cup of coffee.
Yes, the tail section survived; the fuselage was burnt. Speculation over at Defensetech.org is that it’s a modified stealthy version of the MH-60. As for controlling height as the Seals rappel down, don’t the pilots practice that all the time?
We Have a Winner!
As Rudy Ray Moore used to say, “HOW LONG... HOW LOOOOONG MUST THIS BS GO ON”?

I don’t know what they were watching. Perhaps it was a projector screen of the information that was coming over the general’s laptop. Who knows?
That’s a direct and unambiguous assertion... I wonder if it’s true.
Yikes. These British Telegraph reporters need to brush up on their English writing skills.
(Not that American reporters are any better...)
I’m so with you.
Maybe they were watching Roadrunner cartoons. Beep! beep!
Bookmarked!
Its like it was supposed to go one way, where there would only be rumors about what happened—and Osama would be a guest of US in Cuba. Except we left a chopper there. So, all of a sudden what should have been quiet and an “ace in the hole”, turns into a PR nightmare. No time to get their act together. So they are making it up as they go.
Evidently, none of these guys has ever done the risk assessment for anything. I have seen Boy Scout meetings run better than this.
***Mr Panetta also revealed that the US Navy Seals made the final decision to kill bin Laden rather than the president.***
What a choice! Kill Bin Laden rather than the President! Each would have had celebrations in the street!
Sarc/off
Is that spin or what!
Everyone thought the people in that room were watching the actual mission. Why would the White House allow that kind of misunderstanding to continue?
Their whole entire coverage of this event is really bad...it just confirms again that they cannot and will not tell things as they are...you cannot believe anything coming out of washington.
If they’d just stop trying to shore up Obama things would get said and done...but not like they are doing..never happen.
I have to say that I have felt OBL has been dead for some time. The last video/photos we've seen of him, he looked so frail & could hardly stand. Then, new videos/recordings stopped coming out - ones that did just showed the same picture of him.
I figure if he had been alive all of this time, he would have still been putting messages out. When they announced this week that he had been killed - it just didn't register with me. My gut feeling just didn't jive with the information being put out. Something didn't feel right, the timing was too convenient.
As each day goes by, and the story keeps changing - I have to say that I have my doubts - maybe it was his SON that was killed. I know that sounds crazy, but there is something seriously fishy about this whole thing.
Saturday, Obama told the military heads,
“Lemme sleep on it.
Baby, baby, lemme sleep on it.
Lemme sleep on it.
I’ll give you an answer in the morning.”
I'll add on everything they attempt to do because it all has to be according to whatever political point they want to make and who they want to lift up or take down. It's never the facts as they are...it's always clouded and hidden from how it really is. .......and worse they do it to keep us otherwise occupied on insignificant on matters.
Well it’s good news then that ‘Ben Ladens heir’ is dead...that’s really a very good thing.
They A R E a Roadrunner cartoon!
Btw- Boogieman died a year after the Twins were blown.
