How the U.S. Raid to Rescue Hostages in Yemen Went Wrong

So what are you trying to imply again?
Whats your point?
I wasnt trying to imply anything. My point was very clear.

We USED to deny involvement in actions no matter if they were sucessful or not. This gave the enemy much less intel. Now, it seems that we give play by play descriptions of our military failures within hours of them happening.

If I was an ENEMY, I would take this information and set up ambushes by giving out false information on the location of hostages and then let the military walk into traps. And I am not even a terrorist.

So... Why are we giving out this kind of information?

When, dude, when?

While I agree with your sentiment concerning NOT allowing the press to do the enemies battle damage assessment FOR them, I sure as fuck don't agree that this is anything new, or a characteristic specific to the current administration. This shit's been going on for YEARS dude. Years.

I sure as hell would like to see it stop, regardless.

It's funny how none of the supposed ISIS hostages had any rescue attempts made for them. Yet this guy gets a full Seal Team to supposedly try to save his ass. I suspect he learned to much and no real reporting was going to be allowed to happen. The real objective to shut the reporter up. Secondly, If you want to go hang out in Shitstainistan, do so at your own risk. Taxpayers and military families shouldnt have to foot the bill for any rescue attempts.

It gets extremely tiresome arguing with people who do not read, comprehend and respond to what I actually post rather than attack a list of talking points that I did not make.

Too many people have lost the ability to actually have a logical debate.
and you're guilty of the same.

you often post without reading the thread or link provided.

then say it's the OP's fault that you're misunderstood.

Not to armchair quarterback this thing, but why did they breach the compound instead of just putting eyes on the contact and waiting for an opportunity to present itself? They either knew they were taking a risk of being exposed or they didn't, in which case they didn't have enough intel on the situation... Step up your game fellas.
They were going to kill the hostage in the next 72 hours.
They ran out of time to wait

Hey Ginwilly
tell us how blacks are genetically less intelligent in your opinion

woah, wait a minute. Why is it fucktarded? It's science that certain characteristic like height, body type, hair color, penis size etc can be predicted by geographical region (per average), why is it so hard to make the assumption it's possible intelligence is also one of those characteristics. I would think it would be more fucktarded to assume that it is not.

Yeah, I deleted that garbage post. But still, 3 days isnt exactly out of time for a special op... Its out of time for a negotiated resolution, but until the knife comes out, there's still time for a fight...
