If that raid had been done right, bin Laden would have been captured, waterboarded for every scrap of info he had about his cohorts, peep walked, humiliated, etc.
Instead we had one helicopter disabled, the informant who helped us was essentially left for the Pakistanis to torture, a secret muslim-approved possible burial at sea, movie made to promote this guy’s future presidential run, and after that the US pretty much ended any serious effort against Islamic fanaticism, and began a war instead on free speech, blaming terrorism on anti-islam videos, etc.
Thank you for the summary. Good points!
Everyone on the topic of “bin laden” and “obama’s team got him” is forgetting this tidbit which iirc the tipster was made out to be a grifter, and a paedo (what?). Allan Darrow Parrott. An expert in training and raising falcons (birds) who was the contracted Chief Falconer for the House of Saud (The Saudi Royal Family). These falcons are $millions apiece on this market- and osama was an avid falconer along with everything else.Parott wrote a book called “Feathered Cocaine” about his experiences in the field of falconry and advocacy against the illegal trade in hunting falcons (a true criminal network).
There is this from Nov 30, 2023 paywalled unfortunately- but the feds are trying to put Parrott away for 20 years (at his age a life sentence). Will try to get this posted:

Trump retweeted this on the SEALs deaths (from the lying factcheck “debunkers”, the fact check lie/ article and then twitter link retweeted. Personally, I believe that Biden cannot shut his mouth, and that our fedgov monsters are silencing one person who really knows, and probably team members who know and are sick and tired of this jacka@@ 3rd term of obama, moron tool.

Parrott was hunting with falcons with Saudi royals in Iraq near the Iran border- claimed that the royals gestured to a site on the Iranian border saying “that is where Osama lives now protected by Iran. By payment of ransom, started by GW Bush” (a very interesting claim, which, if true meant that someone else was killed by our SEALS in Abbotabod, Paki). As buried at sea prevents any more post mortem, and the cooperative Sen. Inhofe saying “that was him” does not cut the mustard. The backside of the kill team was the LEAK said to be from mouthy joe-bama of a mission 22 plus SEALS (most of whom were also on the “osama kill” mission & other specops were on. ID’ing the helicopter mission for attack by taliban. In any case, truly, SEALs do not forget.
The full dirty story since 9-11 so it goes, is that the US had been (right up to and through obama) paying protection ransom to Iran to osama in order to stop any further al-qaeda attacks on the US. Which payment obama expanded on with the cash payment supposedly by order of the Hague Court (for a F-16 contract the Shah paid, which was not fulfilled by the US due to the Iranian revolution. This is in the Carter days, when he abused the Shah, in favor of Iranian radicals- familiar to most conservatives. No surprise obama took a cut of the cash delivered on pallets through Geneva to Tehran on US C-17s!). Once one pays these clowns it never stops— in fact it grows.
Apology for the wordy post- will save this memory post so I don’t have to run through the narrative again later.
Remember that Biden was against the raid that killed Osama, and once Osama had been killed, blabbed about it immediately...which may have prevented US intelligence from catching some of his agents based on information found at Osama’s hideout.
The "respect" shown to the body by the Obama regime was disgusting, as he should have been swathed in a pig carcass and left to rot in the sun.
