I am puzzled. If he managed to shut the door in time, wouldn’t he have already got the gun in his hand instead of reaching out for it after the SEALs saw him again?

I agree. That right there is suspicious. The original narrative of the helicopter crashing in the compound at the very beginning of the engagement would also have given Bin Laden time to grab a weapon.

By reducing the time-to-the-kill to 90 seconds and BEFORE the helicopter crash they allow for a claim that Bin Laden had not yet grabbed his gun to be more credible.

Might I suggest, 'humbly', that unless you were there or have been in a similar operation that YOU AIN"T GOT A CLUE how fast things can go down - It doesn't take long to kick in a door - - and binie took time to first grab his wife for a body shield...

So I suggest, 'humbly', that you or anyone else, unless you were there or have served in a like situation - STFU.

(Takes a lot to get this little ole great granny's ire up - but you - and others on ths thread, have done done it.)
