Clinton: I could have killed bin Laden. Michael Scheuer responds; goes ballistic on Geraldo

[presence]

Evidence?

It was claimed by Pakistan Observer, here's the piece:

[Danke]

I can't watch the video, but I have to admit that I would have an enormous problem bombing a lot of children just to get one guy who might do something terrible--obviously he did, but we need more defense, not offense.

Where do you think terrorist come from? Women and children.

Shall we start here?

You're citing some obscure article with no author.

Clinton lied. The attack would have taken place at 3 a.m. and only Taliban would have been targeted, besides bin Laden.

meh....maybe to try and throw the scent off his trail? Is there anything else, or just this one article with no author listed?

You caught that. I guess we all know now what papers Mike thinks Berger sneaked out....

Yah Caught that... Very Sharp +++ but Berger didn't sneak them out... he destroyed them at the Nat Arch, then flushed the shreds down the toilets. (confirmed by Nat Arch staff)

I can't stand Geraldo Rivera and never forget the POS sensationalist will do anything for ratings/controversy... but this is plain tasteless and stupidity by Rivera. For starters, Mike Scheuer is privy to incredible amounts of highly classified compartmented information and involved directly with OBL during the Clinton presidency years, which Geraldo doesn't have a fucking clue about. Clinton has been confirmed to be a pathological liar, yet "Mr. Al Capone Vaults" and "Break My Nose KKK" clown goofing off on his "Jerry Springer wantabe show" from 1987 through 1998, has the gall to challenge Mike? I fucking despise these idiot media egotistical celebrities.

PS: I had to sit next to Geraldo on a flight for over 3 hours... he's a condescending egotistical primadona. Here's a little tid bit trivia about GR... he has a homemade 'star of David' tattoo between his thumb and index finger.

Oh. I forgot that I'm a terrorist and I make terrorists.

I have absolutely no doubt that most everything out of his mouth is a lie, but I still wouldn't bomb a village full of innocent people even if I knew it would thwart the events on 9/11.

And I fully understand those who might think I'm an asshole for it. I just couldn't do it.

buried at sea, no pictures or video...just their 'word'...

ok...

next.

Schueuer is an outspoken, no nonsense tough guy who doesn't take shit from anybody.

We need kick-ass-and-take-names leaders like him in Washington.

 

[dillo]

LOL is Geraldo really trying to argue that he has more information than the former operator of the Bin Laden task force?

 

[Henry Rogue]

Rivera was then brought in to discuss. He said Scheuer is “mixing and conflating intelligence with his own ideological spin.”

Hypocritical, all talking heads do this, including Rivera himself.

I understand. And I don't think you're an asshole. I luvs ya.

Just like drones only target terrorists.

Geraldo stood on Bin Laden's lawn, so he's in the know on all of that intelligence and stuff.

Did you even listen to the interview? Mike said they had an 'asset' with bin Laden and his cohorts. He said there wouldn't have been any collateral damage. I believe him.

 

[anaconda]

Does anyone know offhand if Scheuer ever pointed to any credible evidence that Bin Laden was connected to 9-11? Scheuer seems to avoid 9-11 and approach the terrorism issue from a different angle.

He could even see Russia from Bin Laden's front lawn.

I know, as if that somehow privyed him to some intelligence. One thing I give credit to Geraldo for is that he isn't a pussy, he will go stand right in conflict.

 

[Cutlerzzz]

Bill made the right decision. He doesn't have the authority to launch a missile at Afghanistan without congress, even if that wasn't his reason.

I'm also curious how Taliban people is defined.
