Another Day, Another Version

Sorry, but I just don't believe much of this latest version of the bin Laden kill story. Now we're told that all kinds of doorways got blown up. That the SEALS lost the element of surprise and took 15 minutes to get to bin Laden, yet bin Laden didn't bother to grab his very nearby AK47 and Makarov pistol. Just hung around in his room until the SEALS stormed in and shot him. I don't buy the Geronimo explanation either. What letter are we on? This entire story is told by "officials" who conveniently aren't identified. To an AP reporter. That alone makes it suspect. Our SEALS did their job and did it well. They came. They saw. They conquered. The O Administration seems to be trying to find the best version for Obama's re-election with no regard to releasing information that might jeopardize our SEALS. Here's an excerpt.

The other aircraft did not even attempt hovering, landing its SEALs outside the compound.

Now, the raiders were outside, and they’d lost the element of surprise.

They had trained for this, and started blowing their way in with explosives, through walls and doors, working their way up the three-level house from the bottom.

They had to blow their way through barriers at each stair landing, firing back, as one of the men in the house fired at them.

They shot three men as well as one woman, whom U.S. officials have said lunged at the SEALs.

Small knots of children were on every level, including the balcony of bin Laden’s room.

As three of the SEALs reached the top of the steps on the third floor, they saw bin Laden standing at the end of the hall. The Americans recognized him instantly, the officials said.

Bin Laden also saw them, dimly outlined in the dark house, and ducked into his room.

The three SEALs assumed he was going for a weapon, and one by one they rushed after him through the door, one official described.

Two women were in front of bin Laden, yelling and trying to protect him, two officials said. The first SEAL grabbed the two women and shoved them away, fearing they might be wearing suicide bomb vests, they said.

The SEAL behind him opened fire at bin Laden, putting one bullet in his chest, and one in his head.

It was over in a matter of seconds.

Back at the White House Situation Room, word was relayed that bin Laden had been found, signaled by the code word “Geronimo.” That was not bin Laden’s code name, but rather a representation of the letter “G.” Each step of the mission was labeled alphabetically, and “Geronimo” meant that the raiders had reached step “G,” the killing or capture of bin Laden, two officials said.

As the SEALs began photographing the body for identification, the raiders found an AK-47 rifle and a Russian-made Makarov pistol on a shelf by the door they’d just run through. Bin Laden hadn’t touched them.

They were among a handful of weapons that were removed to be inventoried.

It took approximately 15 minutes to reach bin Laden, one official said. The next 23 or so were spent blowing up the broken chopper, after rounding up nine women and 18 children to get them out of range of the blast.

Happy Independence Day, Israel!

You have been and are a great ally! We wish you peace and prosperity.

Obama's Fraudulent Wreath

Obama the fraud and his fraudulent wreath laying. He sat in Jeremiah Wright's church during 2001 and had to have known his preacher said 9/11 was "America's chickens are coming home to roost." He had to believe the things Wright said or he would have left the church in disgust. He didn't leave. Not for seven more years. Not until belonging there might affect his election chances. And now he goes to Ground Zero today to portend that he cares and that he, he, has given America justice. Keep your wreath, Obama.
