There is absolutely no evidence to date that Osama was killed on May 1, 2011.
There's no evidence it was SEAL Team Six.
"Technically" there is "NO" Seal Team Six...... It's just a code/trick name used to spoof the soviets back in the day when there were only 2 total Seal Teams.... The name just kinda hangs around to this day, something for the public to relate to when describing the forays/actions of the elite of the elite......
I hate to tell you this but there is a Seal Team Six that was put together in the early 1980's for specific, rapid response purposes such as these... I have heard this tag applied several times through the years...check out "Dock's Lock's" and check out Dock...
The military team that killed Osama Bin Laden is an elite special forces group "unofficially" called Seal Team 6. Officially, the team's name is classified and not available to the public, technically there is no team 6. A Tier-One counter-terrorism force similar to the Army's elusive Delta group, Team 6's mission rarely make it to paper much less the newspaper. It shows how important the publicity about Bin Laden's killing is to the U.S. that this morning, Team 6 is front-page news. The members of Team 6 are all "black" operatives. They exist outside military protocol, engage in operations that are at the highest level of classification and often outside the boundaries of international law. To maintain plausible deniability in case they are caught, records of black operations are rarely, if ever, kept. The development of SEAL Team 6 was in direct response to the 1980 attempt to rescue the American hostages held in Iran. The mission was a terrific failure that fell apart at many points and illustrated the need for a dedicated counter- terrorist team capable of operating with the utmost secrecy. The Team was labeled 6 at the time to confuse Soviet intelligence about the number of SEAL teams in operation at the time. There were only two others. Team 6 poached the top operatives from other SEAL units and trained them even more intensely from there. Even among proven SEAL's the attrition rate for Team 6 is reported to be nearly half. There are no names available for current Team 6 members, but the CIA does recruit heavily from their numbers for their Special Operations Group, so it makes sense that they were chosen to work with the CIA on this mission. Team 6 is normally devoted to missions with maritime authority: ship rescues, oil rigs, naval bases or land bases accessible by water. There are no waterways near Bin Laden's compound. When a former Navy SEAL was called for a comment about this article all he could say was: "You know I'd love to help you man, but I can't say a word about Team 6. There is no Team 6."
Thanks for correcting yourself...
I did??? Hmmm..... So what do the words "technically" and "unofficially" mean then????? Quote: "The military team that killed Osama Bin Laden is an elite special forces group "unofficially" called Seal Team 6". "Officially, the team's name is classified and not available to the public, technically there is "NO" team 6". When a former Navy SEAL was called for a comment about this article all he could say was: "You know I'd love to help you man, but I can't say a word about Team 6. There is "NO" Team 6." :Unquote So why don't you ask Craig Sawyer what he thinks???? He was recruited for that "unofficial" team and is retired from that "unofficial" team. And the word "unofficial" is a word quoted from his mouth..... Or are you going to tell me my source is BS???????
