JSOC
05/01/2011

JSOC.

I heard one TV talking head tonight mention that we will be hearing a great deal in the coming hours and days about the Joint Special Operations Command, and how this agency was instrumental in the death of Osama bin Laden.

I can't recall which channel I was watching. I know it wasn't Rivera on Fox. I can't stand that fool. But anyway, I'm not familiar with JSOC.

I guess I'll be educated?

Something sounds awfully strange about that. They killed him after a firefight?

I hope this is all disinfo. We don’t need to know who did it. If they’re saying it was SEALs I hope it was someone else, and vice versa.

And maybe they could have kept an eye on it.

I have a nagging feeling that Ubanga was somehow pressed into to making this move a lot earlier than he wanted. Normally, a scumbag like Ubanga would do this closer to election time.

We need to let the world know we are through effin around and start striking back every time an American is killed by a rag head, we take some muslem holy site out. This will be a place our choosing on our schedule, noone knows when or where.

I wish I could remember which network I was watching. It might have been Brian Williams on NBC. He was going on and on about JSOC was as big a part of the Armed Forces as the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines.

Like it will be it’s own separate armed forces unit someday.

Joint Special Operations Command. All special operations units (Army Special Forces, Rangers, SEALs, Marine Force Recon, TF160, and a few miscellaneous units) are part of JSOC.
