No, it's not.

But it shows you how much of a joke Pakistan is.

This is the bastion of Pakistani intelligence and military training.

I wonder how long he had actually been there, particularly with his ill health.

I'm thinking years, honestly. We almost had him at Tora Borah...

That's pretty amazing if true. And all of these years we were saying that he was in Waziristan. Almost had him is an understatement.

The CIA, DOD, and DEVGRU deserve credit.

Barney Fife could have been President and this could have happened.

Let's be real. Obama was the cog in the machine when the machine completed it's task. That doesn't mean that the cog was anything more or less than the cogs before it. I'm not knocking him, nor did I criticize him on this before. I'm just saying.

disagree....this type of OP does not go down without Presidential approval. His direct involvement didn't make it a success but he did give the orders to make it happen.

BPV isn't disputing that, he actually made that point earlier. He's saying the operation was running without direction or direct involvement by the prez. He just signed off on it when they had things lined up.

That's how military ops should go. Let the pros do their thing.
