Do you think it was just an attack or do you think the attack was specifically to get the prisoners out? That's the aspect that troubled me. Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems like there must've been someone in there they wanted badly to get out. So much so that they would go to this extent.

Obviously, this was a well planned mission and was executed successfully. You'd have to drill a bunch of guys quite a lot to get that sort of result. Al Qaeda has trained on these sort of tactics in the past.

So have US Special Forces, but I don't think that proves USSF were responsible for the attack.
