It was a miracle no one was lost on that mission. There are no guarantees when it comes to such situations. The intel was there. Where was your outrage when lives were lost during the multiple failed hostage rescue raids green-lighted by Obama? Exactly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well seeing this thread is about one of the heads of a fake news organization this is fitting. But no this was first reported by Reuters and has since been picked up by almost every credible news organization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look if you guys haven't seen it yet, I'll give some more time before posting again. Keep the hope! Please, explain your statement that you have lost money. Is this based on the time period between the election and now, Trump taking office and now, or simply between yesterday and today (perhaps you are a day trader). Based on actual stock market results, that is a difficult statement to make. What I see from the S&P 500 Index is: 2/2/2017 1:14 pm 2280 2/1/2017 close 2280 1/19/2017 close 2264 11/9/2016 close 2164 11/8/2016 close 2140 11/7/2016 close 2132 While the market may go up or down in the future and Trump being in office may or not actually have any correlation to the market's performance, saying that you have already lost money due to Trump's presidency to-date is a stretch (but perhaps you shorted cement stocks). If you knowingly use a false statement to bolster your anti-Trump argument, are you any different from the "false news" creators (be they from the left or right)? P.S. I am simply focused on the validity of your statement that you already lost money due to Trump, I personally think that presidents get too much credit/blame for the economy's performance.

echo88 Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) Well seeing this thread is about one of the heads of a fake news organization this is fitting. But no this was first reported by Reuters and has since been picked up by almost every credible news organization. Im seeing a few things about this raid that these news organizations are flagging as "botched". Let me just impart some first-hand knowledge... 1) Civilian deaths. Unavoidable at times and always weighed against the gain. In this case, the gain was a treasure trove of intelligence that contained valuable information about future planned attacks. Obama routinely called for drone strikes that resulted in civilian deaths...because the person being targeted was worth collateral damage. Again, Im asking where the outrage was when this occurred under Obama. 2) The media is reporting that the team sent in for the operation was unaware that the base was reinforced. Again, this is bull$hit. That camp was being watched 24/7...for months. I guarantee we knew exactly how many were inside before going in. It's called a "slant" and it's called in literally every time there is a change to it. Maybe they are referring to the fact that women took up arms against the team, because that is downright unheard of among these militants. It would sure surprise the hell out of me. There is a reason that "MAM, or military-aged male", is one of the slants that is called. Because that is the number of combatants that the team expects to encounter. 3) American deaths. I asked before and you didnt answer. Where was the outrage from your kind when Obama authorized hostage rescue missions where our guys or the hostage was killed? Reuters claims: "U.S. military officials told Reuters that Trump approved his first covert counterterrorism operation without sufficient intelligence, ground support or adequate backup preparations." Interesting. Ground support from where? It's in Yemen. The nearest QRF team was 300 miles away in Djibouti. 40 SEALs is typically plenty for just about any operation. And considering we got the SSE we wanted out of the op and all threats were ultimately neutralized, I have no idea what more support would/could have done. Adequate backup? That is why we send 2 Ospreys instead of 1. Helos crash. A lot. Was everyone involved evacuated afterward? I'd call that preparedness. If you want to see what an unprepared mission looks like, take a look at Afghanistan between 2003 and 2005. The anonymous "military officials" who have given the media their opinion in regards to this mission are clearly the same types who are trying to find fault in everything Trump does...because thus far I've only seen him authorize military moves that any other President would make under similar conditions. "CENTCOM asks for operations we believe have a good chance for success and when we ask for authorization we certainly believe there is a chance of successful operations based on our planning," CENTCOM spokesman Colonel John Thomas said. "Any operation where you are going to put operators on the ground has inherent risks," he said. Trump didn't just whip pistols out of his holsters and make an idiotic decision. CENTCOM laid out the intel they had and their reasons for requesting approval for the raid. And he approved it.
