I think you might be taking some of the ‘Chuck Norris’ type legends surrounding special forces a bit too seriously there. I have heard many stories of soldiers from extremely crack units over here (Paras and Marines) in Britain being killed or put into intensive care through nightclub brawls with local chavs. A mate from Hereford even recalls a local newspaper reporting that an unnamed SAS guy was put in hospital through a night-time attack by a gang of local thugs. Nobody is invincible, and these people weren’t even attacked by people with the training and motivation a jihadi terrorist might have.

Just how many Fox employees have worn the uniform of this country, let alone seen combat? I know during Iraq reporters were embedded and were guarded like the crown jewels.

If I had the power, I would shut down Fox news over this and I’d do it today, before sunset

I'll bet you were never mad at WaPo for reporting Valerie Plame's name though.

Yep, there was a time when Americans were not afraid to kill their enemies and traitors, until most of our elected elites became elites, and fearful. Now we train our enemy to shoot us while we’re training them. We’re dealing with a group of people who are out to rule the world with their “peaceful” ways, such as slitting Jew’s or Christians throats. They hate us, have always hated us and we have the audacity to think they can be “trained” to respect us.
Look what they’re doing in Detroit. They have a fair and won’t allow anyone in, except people of their cult.

Most towns in Alaska are small and everyone knows everyone. If a stranger comes strolling in, it’s noticed and watched. So I don’t think the Chief has much to be concerned over. He’s a big man and thinks like one.

Why did he write the book? Probably to let us know it was the Seals who outed osama, not obama, who took and takes the credit. He’s nothing but a CS when it comes to bravery.

You don’t think the military should be able to vet books such as this?

Glad to see how many now realize that Fox is as mainstream media as it gets.

I believe a FReeper on this thread said it was FNC journalist Jennifer Griffin that revealed the name

Not Megan Kelly

Don’t trust my recollections - or the source of what I am typing here - check out GOOGLE Search

I believe Jennifer Griffin had filed a lawsuit against FOX - age discrimination? I dunno

I also believe she fought against cancer and was still on FNC while she was recovering

Could be Jennifer Griffin is a huge left-winger - I dunno

I understand the WH and Pentagon are claiming that they never cleared the book for publication

- Hoo nose?

We do however - all know that the Obama White House gave Hollywood producers special access to secret CIA documents and info - and attempted to get the Osama-Obama bin Ladin raid movie released before the upcoming election in an attempt to swing more votes to Obama

I started the first thread on this after hearing Jennifer Griffin out the guy.
Don’t know if she’s a leftie...
It’s now being reported internationally on the Brit site, The Daily Mail.
Totally wrong.

Fox had to win “the race to be first”. Not impressed.

“Great response...”

Thanks. I thought so. Informative and apt.

“And in case you haven’t got this yet (and if you have and are sick of it, sorry), “...lighten up, Francis...”.”

Yeah, all those hyper-breathing uninformed that feel the SEAL might be in trouble, they certainly need to lighten up, for key-rist-sakes.

Hear that brother.

And Wrangle is on an island, if I recall.

Lives in paradise and on the side of angels, this Chief.
