January 22, 201412 yr The article said that a few of the SEALs told family members to remove any indication of Seal Team 6 from social media. Knowing that the world knows that SEAL Team 6 is the elite of the elite and are the ones who are going to be involved in almost all of the hottest situations what does taking it down now have to do with anything? You think the enemies a)don't know that 6 is involved and b)dhaven't found FB posts by family members previously? Of course they do and of course they have. We can all bash VP Biden but we all knew it was 6 involved or most likely involved. So did the enemy. He didn't break any news. That's just talking point rhetoric.
January 23, 201412 yr G Are you kidding me? You have said some outlandish things on here, but this may take the cake... I guess you think 9/11 was a conspiracy too, don't you? Was that Obama's fault as well? No 9-11 was just a great planned out terrorist attack that showed how vulnerable America was. But if you want a conspiracy on it look up (who killed john oneil) Now back to our government giving a crap, wait they don't give a crap. Look at all the secret stuff they have done from murders to cover ups. And last thing, how do you know that behind the scenes a few people that rank high up the chain of command didn't broker a deal with some terror group to sacrifice a few seals for killing bin laden so they could save face. After all in the world today our administration bends over backward. Edited January 23, 201412 yr by True blue (and gold)
January 23, 201412 yr And no that is not the most outlandish thing I have ever posted or said on here.
January 23, 201412 yr Just check a few of our government prouder moments. And then maybe you will realize why no one trust the government or shadow government that does a lot of back scenes stuff the POTUS may not even be aware of.

January 23, 201412 yr After Watergate (that involved hundreds) is the 'how many would need to be involved' somewhat a difficult argument? Didn't the purple that carried out Watergate get caught?

It should have been left as "a Navy Seal Team" was involved. No more, no less.
January 23, 201412 yr It should have been left as "a Navy Seal Team" was involved. No more, no less. That doesnt answer my question/address my points.
January 23, 201412 yr The other thing to remember is that after Bin Laden was killed the JSOC commander was very public about the JSOC and SEALs role in this. Again, it surprised no one that it was SEALs so why do we think the recognition is THE reason for any retaliation?
January 23, 201412 yr That doesnt answer my question/address my points. I didn't intend to. It was a statement. A lot of people released more information than they should have, and some including the Navy benefitted from the good feelings and good publicity brought about by the elimination of Bin Laden. However, past that, it is in the best interests of the individuals and their families in these sensitive government roles..include FBI, CIA, etc. that their profile remain low.
January 23, 201412 yr ZERO chance. How many people would have to be involved in this coverup? Only takes one. If the Commander and Chief gives an order, you follow it.

We can all bash VP Biden but we all knew it was 6 involved or most likely involved. So did the enemy. He didn't break any news. That's just talking point rhetoric. I somewhat agree there. I just think as a Navy Seal it's in their best interests not to disclose to family or friends exactly what it is that they do, especially not what team they're a part of. I've known 2 guys over the years that were or are(can't confirm) Navy SEALS. I knew that's what they were striving for and trying to do and then one day when they reached that goal(and it didn't happen on the first attempt for one of them), they came back and it just wasn't talked about any more. They did clean up their social media stuff a lot too, everything changed to private and not a lot of stuff talked about in their feeds any more other than people dropping in and telling them they're missed or hope to see them soon. It's an already risky line of business that Navy SEALS are in and IMO social media and letting lots of people know or feel like they're a part of what they're doing is only going to make it more dangerous, Navy SEALS don't sign up to be SEALS because they want to come home and tell stories or brag about what they've done.
January 24, 201412 yr After Watergate (that involved hundreds) is the 'how many would need to be involved' somewhat a difficult argument? That was uncovered, right?

After all in the world today our administration bends over backward. So you have information that says there were people brokering deals? Care to share that info, or source?
January 24, 201412 yr So you have information that says there were people brokering deals? Care to share that info, or source? So you have info that says there were no deals at all brokered, I mean you are 100% sure?????
January 24, 201412 yr So you have info that says there were no deals at all brokered, I mean you are 100% sure????? Classic "I'm talking out of my rear" response. :lol2: You are the one accusing our Government of killing our own soldiers, on purpose. What is your basis? What evidence do you have to believe that?
