Sources: Raiders knew mission a one-shot deal

Navy Times  "Those who planned the secret mission to get Osama bin Laden in Pakistan knew it was a one-shot deal, and it nearly went terribly wrong.
"The U.S. deliberately hid the operation from Pakistan, and predicted that national outrage over the breach of Pakistani sovereignty would make it impossible to try again if the raid on bin Laden’s suspected redoubt came up dry.

"Once the raiders reached their target, things started to go awry almost immediately, officials briefed on the operation said."  Kimberly Dozier - The Associated Press

Hat tip to Clark Best, Tillamook County, Oregon. Mr. Best, a former Navy man, also added the comment below:

"Read the article written by the Associated Press. It is slightly biased to the left. For one thing, note the term "raiders" used to describe SEAL COMMANDOS instead of the proper description -- "commandos!!" Raiders has a negative, connotation to it, implying that we INVADED on a whim, like pirates, Pakistan just because we wanted to or could. And I do NOT believe that Obama did not ask WHO actually shot the bastard when he met with SEAL Team SIX!! Just more BS from the AP -- as usual."

Here's one to go with our two-for-one special:

I realize Islamists are dead serious, but don't you get a perverse (pardon my choice of words) pleasure out of being able to laugh at them a bit? Who was it that said, "Lord, help me make my enemies look ridiculous"?
