I was miffed during the announcement. He was campaigning on a Sunday night. I was on board that we got the SOB at that point and was willing to let the little dictator his victory. This in spite of the intelligence loss in the rush to take credit. Two hours later with the "Islamic burial at sea", I went ballistic. I knew then that something was very wrong with the story and that there would be massive blowback and deceit.
I am also just one of those more or less average joes to a point. I have been around the world quite a few time and have spent years working (oil) in arab countries. The one thing I learned was sensing what is propaganda and what is fact. Everything now coming out of this WH is propaganda. The only verifiable fact is there was a raid at some time on a suspected Bin Laden hide out. Everything else is doubtful.
If I was running that thing. Especially with SEAL team six.
No one would ever know I was there. No one would ever know I left.
Osama would have just disappeared *poof* gone in 60 seconds.
This circus USA! USA! had nothing to do with 9/11 or with Osama. It was all about distracting America to some very serious flaws with Obama’s background and policies. It was ‘The Obama Show’. It was not a serious operation.
The way it was handled served the cause of Muslim radicals, gave away radical new stealth technology, boosted Obama as some kind of American hero, and destroyed a potential coup of terrorist information all at the same time. It was a freakin’ disaster under the guise of a Great American Victory.
