[A Navy Vet]

"I don’t see it as an inside job meaning the Obama administration. Possible but the more likely and obvious explanation is that Biden leaked the Seals out of incompetence and the Afghans identified them and took them out. Not buying this inside job theory."

I don't believe the conspiracy either. However, I do question why so many SpecOps personnel were on one bird. I also wonder why the Afgan personnel were changed at the last moment (if true).

I highly doubt that the golfing, campaigning, self-arrgandizing, sh*thead in our Oval Office is actually involved in every military operation. Yes, Biden should have kept his big mouth shut, but I believe it was just "wages of war" that brought down that Chinook.

Remember, they were going in to backup/rescue some trapped Rangers. So there were many ragheads in the area. Also, they have countless RPG's and probably shoulder Stinger missles.

However, again, I'm surprised SO many SEALs were on one plane. In my day, the commander of the operation would not have done so.

I know this is an old thread, but I’m gonna resurrect it anyway. As to “Navy Vet’s” comments, believe what you like, but there are way too many inconsistencies and violations of policy and TTP to buy any of this B.S. What really troubles me is how few people know anything about it. I’ve been asked a number of times why none of the guys on that raid have come out to speak about it. When I reply that virtually every one of them is dead, they’re astounded and ask, “How can that be?” I shake my head and walk away...
