Osama bin Laden dead: Blackout during raid on bin Laden compound

Leon Panetta, director of the CIA, revealed there was a 25 minute blackout during which the live feed from cameras mounted on the helmets of the US special forces was cut off.

A photograph released by the White House appeared to show the President and his aides in the situation room watching the action as it unfolded. In fact they had little knowledge of what was happening in the compound.

In an interview with PBS, Mr Panetta said: “Once those teams went into the compound I can tell you that there was a time period of almost 20 or 25 minutes where we really didn’t know just exactly what was going on. And there were some very tense moments as we were waiting for information.

Using our most advanced Stealth Blackhawk helicopters because they didn't want to tip the pakistanis off that they had found Bin Laden (again supposedly) They wouldn't blast out a few megabits a second video/comm and mission status transmission to a satellite giving away their position and telling the Pakistanis THE AMERICANS ARE OVER HERE !! HEY !! RIGHT HERE !! WHAT ARE WE DOING IN YOUR COUNTRY !! HEY!! No the minute before they hit the boarder the pilots hit the black out switch and "went dark".

 

Now I know Osama Bin Photoshoped was dead many years ago, just saying that once again they are treating the public like we're mentally enfeebled soccer moms watching a soap opera.

Paul Craig Roberts nailed it IMO, "For those who believe the government’s story that “we got bin Laden,” the operation can only appear as the most botched operation in history. What kind of incompetence does it require to senselessly and needlessly kill the most valuable intelligence asset on the planet? According to the US government, the terrorist movements of the world operated through bin Laden, “the mastermind.” Thanks to a trigger-happy stupid SEAL, a bullet destroyed the most valuable terrorist information on the planet."

Amazing and insightful argument presented in his latest article.

 

Yea, it all sounds like a B-list movie. You mean to tell me out of all the things that could go wrong their cameras went down for 20 min. How convenient. Notice how the cameras went out at just the right time -- as they made their way through the compound. Basically, without stating it directly of course, the article implies they were out when bin Ladin was killed.

Hmmm, how convenient? Blackout hey? It reminds me of 911, when all the cameras in the vicinity of the Pentagon just happened to not be working around the time the plane supposedly crashed into the Pentagon. What a load of crap!
