Correcting the story of bin Laden’s death

| November 7, 2011

Our buddy, Patrick McMahon at The Daily Caller sends us a link to an article by Vince Coglianese entitled “Correcting the ‘fairy tale’: A SEAL’s account of how Osama bin Laden really died“;

“It became obvious in the weeks evolving after the mission that the story that was getting put out there was not only untrue, but it was a really ugly farce of what did happen,” said Chuck Pfarrer, author of Seal Target Geronimo: The Inside Story of the Mission to Kill Osama Bin Laden.

I’m not going to vouch for the veracity of the account, in fact, I’ve heard an enirely different version, but I’m pretty sure that it will be the subject of discussion for years to come since no one involved is really talkking about it and most of the accounts are pure speculation based on past experiences and bits of the story that are picked up from physical evidence at the scene. But, then I’m no expert either.

Rode the link and the story begins, “According to a former Navy SEAL who claims to have the inside track….” And that’s the point where I stopped reading. Piffle.
