Ex-Navy SEAL Who Killed Bin Laden On Marines Killed In Kabul Airport Explosions: It's A 'Sad Day'
FOX Business ^ | 08.26.2021 | FOX Business Staff

Posted on 08/27/2021 2:35:47 AM PDT by USA Conservative

Ex-Navy SEAL who killed bin Laden Robert O'Neill discussed terrorism in the Middle East and described the Marines being killed in Kabul as ‘a sad day’ during an appearance on "Cavuto: Coast to Coast," Thursday.

ROBERT O’NEILL: I learned a long time ago, long before the bin Laden raid - when we were in combat with these same groups of people - one of my jobs I had after we assaulted the target was called a battlefield interrogator, where we caught these weaklings who they really are and interrogated them.

…What I learned and we're learning right now is they're going to lie. They lied to us. They don't need to tell us the truth because it's not a legitimate government. These are what we call terrorists.

It's just a sad day…you saw a lot of anger and frustration from veterans [who] were predicting what's going to happen then. It's sadness and now it's a shame.

There are no words to express the sadness of this tragedy! Biden, you have failed our heroes, our US Troops, the United States, and our friends around the world! Your approval rating is something you need to seriously look at! Step aside with the idiots that surround you!

More deaths to lay at the puppet bidens feet and of his neo-marxist handlers who pull his strings.

DISGUSTING

America needs to vomit these foul people out

Is “Biden” short for “Bin Laden”?

Sadness is no longer enough. We MUST take back our country and pursue ANYONE who enabled this illegal regime.

Minstrel Boy (with lyrics) - Black Hawk Down

Best music for following events at the Kabul Alamo.

This was the outro-music for Bannon’s War Room yesterday.

If Trump can be impeached over nothing, then Biden surely should be impeached and removed. But the Republican establishment does not have the courage to try.

We need to put the GOP on notice they are finished if they don’t do their jobs and remove this regime now

Disgusting isn’t it. And this guy can’t just straight up take responsibility, not without throwing Trump out there. They will lie to us.

Beautiful tune - there is another version (Brian “Hacksaw” Williams) with more bagpipes & drums that Bannon has played. The visuals in this version always “get” to me.

Good coverage on War Room yesterday & last night, but with that comes the understanding of the terrible situation our troops are in at the airport. Praying the air evac is a success & our ‘minstrel boys’ don’t fall.

So was he the target?

Also, Brennan said this monring that many of ISIS are former Taliban. I keep saying it...Taliban and ISIS are not really enemies...just have different leaders.

Great version, thanks.

My fear is that yesterday was just a stray cannonball “recon by fire” fired into the Alamo by one of General Santa Ana’s gunners.

The Kabul Alamo Airport is indefensible, with no overhead cover for our troops. At any time, the place can be hit with mortars, with no way to stop them.

The order to leave Bagram should have generals court martialed and jailed in disgrace. They should have resigned en masse rather than agree to put troops into the Kabul Alamo with no local air base to cover them.

KIA should have just been a helo ferry point for moving evacuees to Bagram then onto C-17s.

I saw a photo of about six C-17s wing tip to wing tip at KIA. A single mortar could wipe out billions of dollars of our best platforms in 5 minutes.

And now our hands are tied, like a man on a gallows with his neck in a noose. We have no options, we are at the mercy of the Taliban, thanks to our fools and traitors.

"America needs to vomit these foul people out"

The thousands of traitors in the ChiComjoe kakistocracy need to be tried, convicted, and sentenced to a short drop and quick stop.

The stolen election that installed Biden was fully bipartisan in nature. All of our institutions are morbidly corrupt.

Biden's team argues they are doing the impossible with the Afghanistan evacuation, and I have to wholeheartedly agree with them.

They are making Carter's handling of Iran, and Clinton's handling of Somalia look well planned and competently executed.

Until now, I would have argued that was impossible.
