[QUOTE="Jones, post: 834769, member: 4805"] There's a whole lot of armchair quarterbacking going on here. There is nothing easy about an operation like this and the outcome is always in doubt. They had already lost a helo and taken fire from the guy in the guest house and had no real idea what was waiting for them in the main house. Their biggest advantages were surprise and speed and both of those were slipping away every minute they were on the deck. Once shots were fired they knew that had to finish up and get out of there before the Pakistani Army and god knows who else showed up. Bottom line is that they killed the bad guy, grabbed a boat load of raw intel, and all [I]our people[/I] came home safe. That's a good op. That's a damn good op, considering who the target was. I agree with over about the dancing in the streets, but that shouldn't take away from what SEALS accomplished. Our guys did it right. [/QUOTE]
