.... 2. There was a pre-planned cover story from the Pentagon which would have said Obama was found, dead, in the mountains and his death was verified by DNA ....

The lengths the critics of the president will go to to prove he really IS Muslim

:rofl:

One journalist's report alleging the raid that killed Bin Laden went differently from official accounts is drawing denials from the US government.

White House Rebuts Journalist's Claim on OBL Raid

WASHINGTON — The White House on Monday flatly rejected claims that Pakistan was told in advance about a 2011 special operations raid that killed al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden.

Veteran US journalist Seymour Hersh claimed in a British publication that Pakistan's security services not only knew about the raid, but had been holding bin Laden prisoner since 2006.

That account was rejected by the White House.

(...SNIPPED)

Let the conspiracy freaks geek out, as long as OBL is still dead.

What the F does it matter? He's dead.

How that was achieved stopped being relevant when the original news cycle died, and Obama was re-elected.

Well it is possible that they paid for info and it is likely that the Pakistani ISI was playing a double game and attempted to sell OBL for some other favour. What passes for reality in Pakistan is like some weird conspiracy fiction in a normal country. The important bit is they killed him without losing any SF guys.

It might matter because of who was "in the room" and, we should assume, "in the loop" with President Obama when it all went down ... she's campaigning for election next year.

Important for books by Navy SEALs, video games and movies.

OK. I'll give you the Joe Biden card. Well played. >

Actually, I don't think that will be an issue WRT Clinton's electability. However, Benghazi will be.

And from the "apple not falling far from the tree" file ...

Growing up, Hamza Bin Laden had some big shoes to fill.

His daddy, Osama, was a world-famous piece of human garbage. He got to live in caves, and had a really long beard. He even had a giant stash of porn all to himself. Everyone wanted him dead. In fact, the FBI put a $25 million bounty on his head. Then, in May 2011, that head was split in half like a log by a big, scary Navy SEAL before his daddy’s corpse was tossed into the ocean.

Now, little Hamza is all grown up and determined to follow in his daddy’s footsteps. Last week, the prodigal son released a 10-minute audio message accompanied by footage of past terrorist attacks. In it, Hamza calls on followers to attack Jews, Americans, Westerners, and Russians, just as his daddy had done. “If you are able to pick up a firearm, well and good; if not, the options are many,” he says in the video, which was obtained by SITE Intelligence Group.

The recording is part of a series of videos that Hamza has been featured in recently, according to experts interviewed by CNN. In fact, it appears that he is now being groomed to become the new face of al Qaeda ...

I read that last week.  Hopefully Seal Team 6 will be able to arrange a Father/Son reunion in the not too far distant future.
