Another Reason Biden Should Loose
Sent to me by a veteran friend.
This is why the military usually hates the politicians. You know Joe is all about what is best for the Country. IN CASE YOU FORGOT............About Joe Biden - During WW2 our submarines could dive to a depth of 350 feet. The Japanese believed around 150 feet was their depth limit and would set their depth charges to that depth or less. Then a US Congressman, Andrew May, visited Pearl Harbor and when he got home told the media “our subs can dive to 350 feet.” Most of the subs we lost during WW2 were lost after the Congressman shot his mouth off. Moving forward to current times, read this and never forget this about Joe Biden: When he was the Vice President, he did the most unthinkable thing for a man in his position. He revealed the unit that killed Bin Laden on May 3 2011, at a national event in Washington, Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. did the unthinkable - He publicly revealed the identity of the special-operations unit responsible for bin Laden’s killing, just to show that he "is in the know”. His reckless action put at risk the lives of every member of Seal Team 6. The Taliban and other jihadists eager to avenge bin Laden now knew which unit to target. Stunned and shocked, Seal Team Six members immediately realized they were going to be hunted by al Qaeda sympathizers. Soon after Biden’s reckless idiotic speech, an American CH47 Chinook was shot down by a rocket propelled grenade in the Tangi Valley, Maidan Wardak Province, Afghanistan, all 38 aboard were killed including most if not all of Seal Team Six, this incident became known as Extortion 17. After Biden had let the identification out, and before the Chinook was shot down, members of Seal Team 6 had called their families and told them to wipe out all connection to them, including social media, and disassociate themselves as far away from them as possible because they too would be in grave danger as the Taliban would attempt to find them in retaliation. It is easy enough to look up the information yourself as well. So, Joe revealed the unit, and signed the death warrants of America's finest warriors and never looked back.

And the scary part of it is that if that fool is elected he will have our nuclear codes and his finger on our nuclear arsenal.

As much as I agree with the sentiment, the article is fake news. The shoot down of Extortion 17 didn’t involve the same unit that was on the UBL raid. While the loss of life was tragic and hits close to home personally, it was nowhere near “all of Seal Team 6.”
I lost a lot of friends that day. I’d had some of them over to the house for a BBQ and drinks not too long before this happened. While I agree with the post, it’s simply not true. Extortion 17 was an immediate reaction force enroute to help some Rangers and there is no indication the shooter knew who was on the helo at the time. |

This thread was not meant to cast any aspersions on the troops but to mainly get the word out about Biden's inability to lead. |

All of the stupidity that I have been posting in the political threads leading up to today could have been posted by the other side.Actually, it was, for the other candidate. It's a pity that only a few here got my point. That being said, I just couldn't resist jerking some chains when the claws came out. It's just ridiculous the lengths people will go to for their candidate. |

Who fact checks the facts checkers? Sometimes you just don't know what to believe and take it with a grain of salt. It's always up to the individual to believe what they want. I have been enlightened by subsequent statements after the original post relative to what happened, and am thankful for that.

And let me be clear. I voted for the person who most closely aligns with my morals, values and belief system. I don’t vote based upon a candidate’s personality. I actually think all politicians have unfortunate personalities and none of them will be invited to my house for a BBQ any time soon.

In that respect, Democrats have absolutely no room to talk... don’t add fuel to that fire because NO politician goes unscathed in the *****ery* department, starting with our own founding fathers.

Extortion 17 hit me especially hard because on 6 August, 2011, I was with a couple of close friends when our phones starting ringing simultaneously. All of us knew most of the personnel who were aboard the Chinook that went down and we had seen them just before they deployed downrange. One of the assigned troop had come home for a family emergency and it was “D” who broke the news to us. For the next 48 hours, “D” reported back from the Command to tell us the bad news as the casualty count mounted. It was a terrible few months, and in some cases, worse for the survivors. “D” who wasn’t on the helo because of a family emergency had to attend every SEAL funeral of his shipmates, all the while suffering from survivor’s guilt of his own. So whatever anyone says about Biden, leave his name out of this one..... |
