this was done on purpose.

They can’t be called into question as to what they saw.

What would it look like today if we raided that compound and bin Laden wasn’t there?

1) immediate “burial-at-sea”

2) no photos released

3) unfortunate video problems

Nixon had a problem with a “gap” too.

Panetta also admitted that the Navy Seals, not the president, made the decision to kill bin Laden:

Read what he said very carefully. He said there was NO LIVE FEED for 20-25 minutes.

Did not say no recording. Of course they recorded the entire operation and panned every nook and cranny...and got their as*** out of there. Anything less would be stupid.

So what was ‘Team America’ watching in the staged photo op? No one hit record?

Please.

Well well well. Plausible deniability? It doesn’t say why the power was “cut off”; whether an accident or mishap or planned.

"He said: “The authority here was to kill bin Laden. And obviously, under the rules of engagement, if he had in fact thrown up his hands, surrendered and didn’t appear to be representing any kind of threat, then they were to capture him. But they had full authority to kill him."

Sounds familiar. Something sticks in my mind about a rescue of a Capt. of a Maersk vessel a couple of years ago where the watch commander made the decision under the same ROE, and instructed the sniper to proceed to kill the pirates.

In both cases it worked, and Obama was able to beat his chest, and play BIG GUY.

This is like Obama trying to write a Tom Clancy Novel.

Maybe they were looking at the Bill / Monica archived footage from the hidden camera in the Oval Office.

Anyone who believes there’s no video of the FULL mission including the righteous execution of Bin Laden is a fool, period.

Panetta also admitted that the Navy Seals, not the president, made the decision to kill bin Laden:

"Team 6 Alpha to Messiah, Geronimo has opened fire on us with AK-47. Request permission to kill."

"Messiah to Team 6 Alpha, let me sleep on it and I'll give you an answer in the morning."

"WTF! Mr. President .... I mean Messiah ... We are taking heavy fire. We need permission to kill!"

"Messiah to Team 6 Alpha, I'm not going to tell you what my decision is now - I'm going to go back and think about it some more. I'm leaving the room now."

"Alpha, what did Messiah say?"

"Messiah said to blow his f#%ing head off!"

Obama took SIXTEEN HOURS to make up his mind about Bin Laden mission .... Barack Obama kept military commanders hanging by declaring he would 'sleep on it' before taking 16 hours to give the go-ahead to raid Bin Laden's compound. .... The mission looked set to be given the all clear last Thursday when analysts confirmed beyond doubt that Bin Laden was in busy town of Abbottabad in northern Pakistan. ..... But the president stunned officials when he told a national security meeting that he wanted more time to think - and disappeared out of the room. 'I'm not going to tell you what my decision is now - I'm going to go back and think about it some more,' said Obama, according to the New York Times.

Of course they weren't watching a live feed of the OBL raid. The photo circulating the web was a fake.
 
Here. Here is the real and untouched photo of what they were really watching:
