Col Douglas McGregor: US Special Forces Went into Gaza and “Were Shot to Pieces, Took Heavy Losses
The Gateway Pundit ^ | October 24, 2023 | Jim Hoft

On Monday night Tucker Carlson dropped episode 33 of his show on X with guest Col. Douglas MacGregor.

“Looks like we’re actually going to war with Iran. Are we ready for this?” Tucker said during his latest episode.

Iran has repeatedly threatened the United States after its proxy army Hamas launched a terror attack on Israel and killed more than 1,300 Jews. Iranian proxies attacked US troops in Syria and Iraq.

During their conversation Col. MacGregor dropped a bomb on the X audience. According to the Colonel, US special forces suffered considerable losses recently during an excursion into Gaza.

These others are, generally, termed special forces, but the Green Berets are actually named The US Special Forces.

Yes, he’s the dude who within three days of Putin’s invasion announced that the Russians were concluding mopping-up exercises.

Yeah. They make bets with each other about what they can goad him into saying. “Dude. He said it! He actually said that special forces got the shyt kicked out them. That’s 5 bucks you owe me.” Then they giggle and high 5 each other.

I really despise all of the ad hominem attacks on Col. McGregor. Either he is correct, or he is not. Can we please talk about FACTS, instead of the messenger. Sheesh, even Obama (who has a richly-deserved approval rating of about -99% here on FR) correctly relayed the news that OBL was dead, and McGregor cannot be as bad.

So let’s look at facts. Either this mission occurred or it didn’t. If it did, we either lost a lot of men or we didn’t. Is there anything out there that either corroborates or disproves McGregor’s claims? If so, either way, PRESENT THE FACTS!

You always walk away with some more information/facts and ideas when listening to them (Tucker and McGregor).

Correct. If IS were in Gaza, Hamas would not be quiet.

If Mcgregor is right (which thank G-d is unlikely) then he is breaking opsec and is jeopardizing US national security. This guy is bordering on treason.

May not be true; but worth investigating given the current woke state of our military.

If true, it shouldn’t have been mentioned, IMO.

“”””Navy Seals and Delta are also special forces.””””

Delta as part of their cover does fall under Special Forces so that they could be partly hidden as green berets, but SEALs are Special Operations, as are the Army Special Forces (aka green berets), Rangers, MARSOC, Night Stalkers, and any of the Special Ops units.

“Selection bias. They want what he says to be true, so they believe him uncritically.”

I think this is confirmation bias, not selection bias, but your point is still valid.

US Special Forces (Green Berets) go in and train local forces, or coordinate with local forces using US support. That is their mission.

"ad hominem attacks on Col. McGregor. Either he is correct, or he is not. Can we please talk about FACTS, instead of the messenger."

So, posting speculative assertions without supporting evidence is your issue? Well, isn't that what Tucker Carlson and McGregor opened the discussion with?

People who speculate, spread rumors and lie to affect opinion and morale are the issue. They deserve whatever derision and scorn comes their way.
