So what happened to the other people??
“Other unidentified males who survived were flown from the scene, while four children and two women, including Bin Laden’s daughter Safia, were taken away in an ambulance.”
I beleive OBL carried an AKS-74U not an AK-47.
Sunday 2 p.m. Obama meets with his national security team to review final preparations on the assault.
Time unknown: 4 American helicopters depart Tarbela Ghazi airbase in north-west Pakistan
Sunday 3:50 p.m. Obama learns that Bin Laden had been “tentatively identified.”
Sunday 4:00pm Sleeping Abbottabad citizens awoken by the clatter of four military helicopters thought to be two Black Hawks and two Chinooks.
Firefight claimed to have lasted 40 minutes
Time unknown-Osama body flown by helicopter to a US base in Afghanistan for DNA and facial testing
6:50+pm president was told, after the operation, that there was a “high probability” that it had been the Al Qaeda leader who had been killed in the operation.
Time unknown-Osama body flown by helicopter to the USS Carl Vinson in the North Arabian sea
Monday 1:10AM- Preparations for at-sea [burial] began
Monday 2:00 AM Burial completed
----------------------------------------------
Looking at the timeline, the firefight ended no earlier than 4:40pm
So they had to take pics.
Tag and bag the body.
Fly 200-250 miles to a US airbase in Afghanistan by helicopter
Land, remove the body, conduct DNA and facial testing.
Repack the body, reload onto another helicopter.
Fly apprx 800-1000 miles and land on a US ship in the North Arabian Sea.
All in less than 8 1/2 hours as burial at sea preparations began at 1:10AM.
Not saying its not possible, not saying Osama is alive or any other type conspiracy, just curious if anyone else finds the timeline hard to believe.
I wonder if anyone else noticed that the land of his compund looks like Israel from the side, with UBL’s room right about where Jerusalem would be. Just an interesting coincidence.
Nice waterbed osama. Didn’t they go out around 1989?
Early AARs suggest UBLs youngest wife wasn’t KIA. So this overview appears wrong. I can also assure you not all (if any) SEAL trigger pullers were carrying M4s.
I like #7...like it would make a difference...
If its true...he has 2 holes in him.... or maybe 4 with ..........AHHHH never mind..
I just want to know if the 3rd movement to Shostakovich’s 5th sympathy was piped through the Pentagon’s PA system at the time.
Credit where credit is due, the Obama Admin made the right decisions that allowed our military to be successful. Drop in, acquire target, double tap to the head, feed him to the fishes. This kind of performance will keep the bad guys scared and busy trying to stay alive.
All this tells me Obama listened to and acted on some good advice from the military.
The question we should be asking; Who’s next?
