How Obama actually delayed pirate rescue SEAL team deployment stalled 36 hours  

This is not necessarily directed at you, James, but I didn't want my comments to end up way down below and folks need to THINK and stop buying every piece of hype that pops up on the web.

The Bainbridge was the closest Navy vessel to the Alabama and it immediately headed towards them but it took time for it to arrive because it was 300 nautical miles away. The Halyburton and the Boxer were farther away but also immediately ordered to the scene and joined the Bainbridge on the 11th. Both vessels were necessary for a rescue attempt to be initiated. The SEAL team was on the Halyburton and the Boxer was a medical ship, capable of dealing with serious injury to the captain of the Alabama or any Navy personnel.

The SEALS had to be deployed under cover of darkness for the protection of the captain so they went from the helicopter into the water and onto the fantail of the Bainbridge during the night of the 11th. The pirates were killed the following day.

I do not see a 36 hour delay in the deployment of the SEAL team anywhere in the timeline of events unless you count the time they were in transit to the site. As far as missed opportunities to save the captain...the ONLY chance he had was if all three pirates were taken out at once since these people have established their willingness to kill innocent people.

The "imminent danger" spin is just that...spin. While the United States wanted to rescue the captain, we certainly don't want to increase the violence by these pirates due to our actions. If anyone really believes the official story I have some beachfront property in Arizona to sell you. The real facts are that the snipers couldn't get a good shot so the pirates were tricked into allowing the Bainbridge to tow them to calmer waters...which also brought them closer to the snipers. I know how these snipers operate. Each one had a target and, once the target was in sight the sniper had one word for the on site commander. The instant all three snipers indicated that they had their targets in sight they were given the command to fire and they did. The Pentagon was not in charge of this operation. The FBI was in charge of negotiations because the preference was to take the pirates into custody with no loss of life but the authorization by the president, according to respectable news sources, went to the Navy and to those on site.

Hi Barb42
I'm personally not on any ones side,I'm on the side of truth period,It is stated in this article out of Washington the Captain saw a door open giving him time to jump in the ocean,it goes on to say the captains thinking as the human hostage the Navy seals had been unable to get a clear shot,so he jumped in to the ocean so they could get clear shots,he was in disbelief the Navy seals did not shot,he did not know the Navy seals was under a order from Obama and his unskilled administration in military matters to not shot.
The captains life was in grave danger he very well could had been killed at the point he jumped in to the ocean angering his captors.

The article said the Navy seals had two clear shots but was under the Obama's order not to shot the pirates,it goes on to say Obama's 36 hours delay put the captain in grave danger,the captain was in the life boat a full four days,so I took it the military was talking about the 36 hour delay after the Navy Seals arrived and nothing to do with before they did arrived at the Navy ship.


Yes,from this report it was the Military and the Navy seals who happen to be the best trained in all the world took it upon them self with a loop hole Obama could not possibly closed on them, if the Captain was in imminent danger was the only way they could shot the pirates,the Navy seals saw one pirate with a gun to the captains back they open fire killing three pirates one shot each in the head calling it imminent danger,this action with out question saved the captains life.
I heard the Captain and his wife speak at their first interview,I thought it was strange what the captains wife said the very first words out of her mouth was I have always been proud of my county,they both thanked the military and the Navy seals over and over and said they could never praise them enough but nothing really said directly to Obama,I thought that was rather odd beings the Obama supporters was slobbering praise all over their king Obama even before they know any of the details.
The milatary,Navy seals and the captain knows what the truth is and if they are saying Obama drug his feet when the 3 A.M. red phone call came I will have no reason not to believe them.
There are the 3 A.M red phone calls that take quick snap decision that is why our presidents are called commanders in cheif they must know how to react and do it quickly,no time to get Rahm Emanuel and Nancy Pelois on the dam cell phone.
I wish Barack Obama had the interest of the American people far ahead of militant dictators and Muslim criminals.
