Father of dead Navy SEAL refused to meet Trump at ceremony

Can the Washington Post be trusted on issues of Obama vs Trump and fault?

Do tell.

 

G'wan hot shot. Why don't you stand in front of them face to face and tell them yourself?

 

This was one of Obamas last screw ups, but alas he's gone

NEXT

 

To make it clear, Obama wasn't against the attack. The Pentagon wanted to do it on a moonless night that wouldn't come about till after Obama left office. What part of that didn't you understand? All Trump had to know is that the attack was planned and approved by both the Pentagon and President Obama. He allowed it to happen and now some how you want to blame Trump? The Liberal mind at work.

 

As do diplomats sometimes at the hands of enemies but who would have thanked that is what happened at Benghazi!!

 

I suppose if one is to reach "DEEP" they might be able to compare a Diplomat and his pen to a trained soldier and his weapon

 

Let me clue you in on done thrush since you apparently have not heard any truth. Things happen in military operations just as they do in CIA operations. Of course if you are a Trumpeizda you will blame Obama and you will be doing that for the next 4 or 8 years. SAD,!

 

You either missed the "at the hands of the enemy" or more likley you ignored that part and attempted to twist contort the facts and are trying to claim thatvI said something which I did not. if you were to think honestly you would realize that Benghazi was an act of a terrorist band -an enemy-against a diplomat who had a civilian former military security team so no Ambrs Stevens was not using his Mont Blanc fountain pin to fight off the terrorists.

But go ahead and keep twisting Benghazi into a political partisan pretzel.

 

In keeping with Washington’s toxic political environment, Trump opponents seized upon this as evidence the president carelessly put American troops in harm’s way. This is nonsense.

The special operations plan was reviewed by the Pentagon and recommended for Trump’s approval. If the commander on the ground believed the intelligence and support were insufficient, he could have aborted the mission. Trump did not force an unwilling SEAL team into a dangerous raid. He was approving what the military said should be done.

Do people really believe presidents are involved in operational planning and take operational command and control of such tactical military operations?

 

Hardly, a soldier signs up to kill or be killed, a diplomat signs up to primarily negotiate, stark difference in rolls! If you want me to acknowledge that non-combatants die in wars then so be it, you're right! Benghazi, IMO, was a series of failures that put a diplomat at unnecessary risk and death where the soldier was simply another recipient of what he signed up to do, kill or be killed!

Soldiers are hammers, so they say!

Another lying post.

 

Wait. Wtf does that have to do with anything? Are you blaming his parents or someone else?

Really? Who the hell said that?

Uhhhh, then what the hell are you rambling about?

 

I bet they know when to use "here" in this case instead of "hear."

 

Ah, a grammar Nazi. Some people have nothing better to do.

 

Wanh. Perhaps you should think of those things next time BEFORE you belittle the intelligence of others. It was quite funny you took the time to post an insult to our members and now you want to gripe about MY time use. Too funny.

That is your one-time daily tip.

 

What I can't believe is Trump is still President.

 

I understand pointing out the obvious facts belittles many on the forum left but hey, that is just the way it goes sometimes.

Not familiar how the country runs?

 

Lolololololol....what? You're just embarrassing yourself now. Just suck up your faux pas and admit that you stepped off in it.

 

Reveling in your grammar Nazi self? Poor feller.

 

Lolololololol. Still no admission. Cool.

Uhhhhhhh, what? Attacking the OP instead of addressing the actual topic is against TOS.

It is the FATHER who is asking for this not TFM.

 

"Bill Owens refused to meet with President Donald Trump when both came to Dover Air Force Base to receive the casket carrying his son, Chief Special Warfare Officer William “Ryan” Owens"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey Bill, if you feel you have to blame somebody, blame Obama, he planned the raid but then chickened out of giving the go-ahead.
When Don took over he gave the green light and the scoreline sounds very good, 14 dead terrorists for only 1 dead SEAL, so I'm sure your son would want you to swallow your pain.

"The younger Owens, a 36-year-old married father of three, was the only U.S. victim in the Jan. 27 raid on a suspected Al Qaeda compound. At least 16 civilians and 14 militants were killed in the operation.
The White House says the raid was planned during the Obama administration, but the former president's aides have said he hadn't given the go-ahead because it would have been an escalation of U.S. involvement in the war-torn and destitute Arab country.

OK

So try responding to what I actually said.

Trump must maintain a 0 count death toll. We cannot have so many Americans be killed in war like past presidents!

 

The death would not have occurred if the USA was fixated on risking American lives to not risk harming foreign civilians. A drone strike would have killed the target.
