Ahhh, I think you might be misunderstanding what happened. We're only finding out about it now, after OBL was killed thanks to wikileaks. Al Libbi told his interrogators ages ago though, hence making it a deterrence strategy.

Oh man, look at that coffee cup, it's fucking camo!! Need one now.

Fuck you guys, let's do F My word begins with F and I need ideas I can bite!!!!

Think it's H. I'll be thowing in on this letter too (promise) to keep this puppy firing.

Ants...., totally cutty.

ME and my Monkey Girl

Cope Team 6

Are you a member of the armed forces or security services? Or are you just another loud-mouthed kid with a computer who talks a big game whilst other people actually do the dangerous stuff? Please relocate yourself to CH0, this is where adults discuss matters, as opposed to dribbling shit.

Oh don't be so dramatic, all in a day's fun!! Thread is still kicking, as soon as I get my stuff unpacked I'll be back in here with my multiple simps pe entry schoolin all y'all wilders with my flow, chyyyeah. stopping again now....

So, still waiting for the big bang....... google 'deterrence strategy'

Ok, how about a boxing grudge match then? Or see who can hold their breathe for the longest? I'll stop now.....

Didn't you say you weren't coming back here?

Ssshhhhh, dude, we want to see a battle!!! :)

Ha, no, what I mean is that they are the same person. 1-1-9er is Mouth For War.

It is Mouth For War, who I had E-respect for until I read this thread. .....*E-respect?! what am I fifteen years old?! SMH @ myself.....

You called him toy but you won't battle him. Do you realise how fucking ridiculous you look right now?

Hil fucking arious.

Yeah, that's called 'deterrence'. Or in this case better termed as 'bullshit'.

So how do you explain Iraq?

When you win.

Are you referring to Devgru? Not that they are secret, just another name. These teams do exist, most developed countries have them. And it really is irrelevant what their names are and all that kind of stuff. British SAS were born out of long range patrol groups in the deserts, Delta and SEALs came from Vietnam and embassy seiges, GRU came from somewhere or other and Batman stole their logo, etc. etc. and many of these kinds of people float between different organisations as required. I think people get bogged down in the superficial aspects of these kinds of organisations such as names, levels of secrecy, etc. and tend to ignore the more relevant parts such as capabilities (the birds they used with newer EMC/acoustic tech, coms links), where they will be useful (OBL/TTP/LeT hunt, downed pilots in Libya, narco-hunters in LATAM/CENTAM, etc.) and how the apparatus uses them (compartmentalisation of info, layers of confusion post-op, create mystique about existance...., such as creating names of super-secret squirrels and then making out like there are even more secreter squirrels with a cooler names!!). These are the more important things that change over time and have more impact on our lives. The fact that there are speccy soldiers out there is a constant.

I reckon we should consider making the entry period for each letter longer, like a week. I want to join in again but my time is really tight right now and there's no chance I can keep up. Going on the late entries and so on I reckon it might be worth at least considering/discussing.

You have to kill under the suspicion that the target may be holding a suicide IED. The best example for that is the Raymond Davis case. Secondly, CQB is fast, very frightening and leaves no room for second guessing. If a soldier is operating in an environment of extreme threat such as they were in this op then it's going to be more of a case of act now, worry later. Keeping in mind that one would expect to encounter multiple IED-suicide devices in this kind of operating environment. That being said, it doesn't mean orders cannot be given for a target to be taken alive regardless of the risk of friendly casualties. I'm going to stop guessing whether he is alive or dead as none of us would even have the first fucking idea what is going on and there is a huuuuuuge misinformation campaign being run to cover the tactical details of the operation and to manipulate the operating environment for the remaining AQ/Taliban leadership. Time to stop trying to work out/make out like we know is happening and just watch and listen.

Pretty significant source of intelligence to just slot and dump in an ocean. I don't buy that the couriers were capped either. They know where the cut outs are and how they are contacted. Why would you kill that information off?

The Pentagon is releasing these and the word is being put out that Obama ordered it, or so I read on the internet!! Layers of confusion over layers of confusion. Nobody has a fucking clue what's going on, that's why they get paid the big bucks!!
