During the Bin Laden raid a helicopter came down in a "controlled but hard" landing due to mechanical failure. The helicopter was carrying SEALS but they were able to continue the mission. Which isn't surprising when the skill of the pilots and engineering is taken into account.
This is detailed in Robert J O'Neill's twitter thread:

**Aaaaand Trump tweets:

@atrupar
Trump just retweeted a conspiracy theory that Obama was colluding with Iran to stage bin Ladens killing. Yes, the same guy who has the nuke codes.

(15,325 posts)I have no problem outing the political bull shit coming at us from Trump.
Like OMG BENGHAZI"!!!
I'd prefer to be prepared with some resources to defend the truth should it land before me.
But that's just me, I guess.
Feel free to pass by this thread if it serves no purpose to you or anyone else.
Benghazi, Pizzagate, Burisma (hi Rudy), Laptop, Bin Laden... etc
Richard O'Neill debunks the latest Omg tweet from the Trump camp.
That's why I'm posting it.
Amplifying garbage.
Budi
(15,325 posts)Big old breaking news headline too!.
At least I had offered some reference of information to calling out the "Garbage"
I did nothing any other poster does on this site. I see this exact same moving of messages every day.
So whatever you personal problem is, I can't help you with.
So, kindly Save your eyerolls or just move past my thread.
This Issue I posted about was also a Headline news piece on MSNBC last evening..
In my OP, I provided a counterpoint to debunk the 'garbage'.
(Helps to have read the OP.)

Is there perhaps a Seal Team 6A and a Seal Team 6B? IDK...
Budi
(15,325 posts)There are a lot of them too.

SEAL Team 6 is a large unit of over 1000 operators. Only 23 men from one of its 6 squadrons took part in the mission. Just like not every FBI agent was present for the apprehension of the Boston Bombers

I'll believe that, but help me out please. The SEAL team that was lost in the Chinook crash (Extortion17) had nothing to do w/ UBL raid?

No. That was DEVGRU Gold squadron. The UBL raid was carried out by Red Squadron. Theres various squadrons within DEVGRU (Development Group aka ST6).

On last point. WE NEVER hear about Seal Team Operations. Yet somehow we know TONS about this one. I find that disturbing and convenient.

It's kinda odd that suddenly they have terabytes of proof!
Prepare for this RW consp to devlope now that Trump is tweeting it out there.
Except they have the story wrong!
They only have 3 weeks left!
I'll watch for more chatter on this latest. It ranks right up their with the Laptop that suddenly appeared.

(692 posts)It's very much appreciated!
Budi
(15,325 posts)I haven't looked further on this but if Richard O'Neill is calling it out already, there are more doing the same.
Problem with their consp lie coming out now is that this occurred so long ago. I believe there were a lot of theories about the event floated around.
Trump jumped on this like a desperate crook being hauled off in cuffs.
