THE DEATH OF BIN LADEN
And so shortly after taking office, I directed Leon Panetta, the director of the CIA, to make the killing or capture of bin Laden the top priority of our war against al Qaeda. Even as we continued our broader efforts to disrupt, dismantle and defeat his network. Then last August, after years of painstaking work by our intelligence community, I was briefed on a possible lead to bin Laden. It was far from certain. And it took many months to run this thread to ground. I met repeatedly with my national security team as we developed more information about the possibility that we could locate bin Laden hiding within a compound deep inside Pakistan. And finally, last week, I determined that we had enough intelligence to take action and authorized an operation to get Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice.
Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Pakistan. A small team of Americans carried out the operation with extraordinary courage and capability. No Americans were harmed. They took care to avoid civilian casualties. After a firefight, they killed Osama bin Laden and took custody of his body. END QUOTE. This was the initial story of what happened. I am not going to argue whether bin Laden was captured, killed or still alive today. However, there are a lot of conflicting accounts as to how it happened.
I am not referring to whether it was a 40 minute firefight or who was armed. I am not referring to who actually used one of his wives as a human shield. I care not about these things. Bin Laden is dead and that is good enough for me. Even Al Qaida has admitted that we got him so don’t fall for the conspiracy theories. They would have nothing to gain by lying about it other than fooling the American people, which seems rather pointless. What I am referring to is what did our commander in chief know and when did he know it. From his statement quoted above he was in on the whole deal anxiously awaiting to send out the KILL order. For someone who has called our soldiers murderers, railed against waterboarding and then used the information derived from it, swore to close gimo, attacked our CIA, and sided with the Muslim cleric on the whole 9/11 mosque ordeal, I have a problem with this gung ho theory. There is another story that was leaked from the white house shortly after all of this came about. You can read about it here: http://socyberty.com/issues/white-house-insider-obama-hesitated-panetta-issued-order-to-kill-osama-bin-laden/ or here: http://newsflavor.com/politics/us-politics/did-senior-militaryintelligence-officials-overrule-president-obama-regarding-mission-to-kill-osama-bin-laden/
This is a story that is not being picked up by ANY of the top media outlets so far, including Fox. You would think that this would be one of the biggest news stories of the century. For those who have not read the story on the links, the leak states that Obama was talked out of going through with the mission on several occasions by our real president, Valerie Jarrett. Who is Valerie Jarrett? Well, that is another story. I will try to add a quick explanation here soon. The rest of the team was so fed up with Obama’s indecision that they decided to go ahead with the mission, WITHOUT HIS AUTHORIZATION, and pulled him off of a golf course and into the situation room as it was happening. If you look at the now famous photo of everyone watching in the situation room, this would not only explain why the president is actually sitting in the corner, (with Hilliary and even Biden having a better view than he) but also the semi-confused and even pissed-off look on his face. See pictures to the left. I have asked people what they think about all of this and a friend of mine brought up a good point. He said that there would be total hell to pay for anyone acting against the presidents orders within the military so he doubted the story. At least until I pointed out, that in order to admonish the people involved, you would have to admit to the American people during a campaign season that you did not want to capture or kill Osama Bin Laden!!! The leak also states that Valerie Jarrett and Obama seemed to be setting up Panetta for the fall in case things did go wrong. This was according to Hilliary who also stated that she would defend him in the public square against the administration. Here is a quote from the leak,” Daley then informed Clinton that he too would fully support Panetta in his actions, even if it meant disclosing the president’s indecision to the American public should that action fail to produce a successful conclusion. So, it sounds like there was a coup going on in the white house and Obama could do nothing about it. Also, according to the leaks, Hilliary was so angry with Obama for not wanting to act on bin Laden that she made sure that Biden was informed all day and even showed up in the situation room long before Obama! Thank you Hilliary for slapping the president in the face for the American people! We appreciate it. This would explain why Biden had a much better seat than Obama in the famous photo.
Will we ever know what exactly transpired? Probably not but more information is released every day dominating the media stories. Since this would be the biggest story in our country’s history, why are none of the media outlets covering it? At least we still have the internet. For now, at least.
