Hersh Expose on Bin Laden Kill

[rich]

wondered what folks thought of it. I didnt think it said much (and reliance
on one source for all this) that was new or all that earth-shattering. and
it seemed a bit tone deaf to me, lamenting that Obama double-crossed ISI
and the Pakistani military (as if that partnership was loving marriage made
in heaven) or that we killed a poor defenseless old guy.

we knew the efficacy of the claims that torture saved lives and broke up
plots. we all know zero dark thirty was crap Hollywood propaganda
