Obama LIED when he said U.S. pulled off bin Laden raid without help:
Daily Mail ^

Posted on 05/11/2015 4:56:11 AM PDT by Hodapp

President Obama lied to Americans about the role of Pakistan special forces in the raid which killed Osama Bin Laden so he could take credit for the mission, an expose published on Sunday has claimed. Pulitzer prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh has accused the the Commander-In-Chief of rushing to receive plaudits just hours after the Navy SEAL operation which killed the head of Al Qaeda and 9/11 mastermind four years ago.

With Seymour Hirsh making the accusation, I have to, unfortunately, give bh0 the benefit of doubt. Hirsh’s track record on ‘breaking news scandals,’ since his one true success during the Vietnam War, have all been either hoaxes or “nothing burgers.”

Link to article that does a convincing job of debunking the “Situation Room Photo” as being photoshopped. Note obamatollah’s small stature and equally small head in comparison to man sitting next to him. Also of note is blurred photo in front of HELLry and the different lighting on the 2 people at open doorway.

I call BS on the entire event, it was a campaign commercial that cost the lives of 17 SEAL members.

A story about a bunch of all star level of chronic liars: Seymour Hirsh, the Pakistani General Staff, and Barack Obama. I wonder in which credibility bin this drivel belongs?

It would certainly explains why the powers that be haven’t lifted a finger to help the Pakistani doctor sentenced to Pakistani prison for helping the US. The good doctor cannot talk behind prison walls.

>> Obama lied? And somehow that makes news? <<

In this case, I don't think your cynicism is justified. Not at all.

If Hersh is even 50% accurate, this story should be a VERY big deal. I recommend that you read the original article, and then tell me it shouldn't be news.

No surprise there, in fact I’m hard pressed to find the exception to the statement that Obama lies every time he flaps his lips.

I disagree. I believe that to follow your suggestion is basically to trivialize the matter. What’s at stake here is something that’s potentially MUCH more serious and MUCH more harmful to our national security than are run-of-the-mill political fibs.
