Loose Lips: Gates Says Info Leaks Has SEAL Team 6 Fearing for Its Safety

In the aftermath of the Osama bin Laden raid, the White House couldn’t get its story straight. Facts were either wrong, or few and far between. But now, a concerning admission by Defense Secretary Robert Gates shows one thing was flowing: information leaks. In fact, there have been so many leaks that the SEAL team that carried out the raid now fears for its safety.

“We are very concerned about the security of our families of your families and our troops, and also these elite units that are engaged in things like that. And without getting into any details … I would tell you that when I met with the team last Thursday, they expressed a concern about that, and particularly with respect to their families,” Gates told an audience of Marines at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina.

Then he dropped this bombshell: “Frankly, a week ago Sunday, in the Situation Room, we all agreed that we would not release any operational details from the effort to take out bin Laden. That all fell apart on Monday, the next day.”

Later, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Geoff Morrell confirmed Gates’s concerns to CNN: “He was indeed voicing his concern about the breakdown in operational security after the killing of Bin Laden. Anonymous sources revealing secret information about the tactics, training, and equipment of covert forces put at risk our ability to successfully mount similar missions in the future.”

Because of the loose lips, Gates said the DOD is looking into ways to “pump up the security” for the elite team.

    of course this is what happened.

    They didnt tell Baraki about it because if he had known, Osama would have been informed

    the president is cavalier with his power and with the lives of Americans

    he couldnt give the heads up to Osama Bin Ladens protectors / Obama’s supporters in the middle east, so in his vengeance he leaks all the information he can after the fact

    the leaks are for the wrath of his middle-eastern / black panther brotherhood who thought their man in the white house’s presidential seat would have given them all the leaks they needed to protect Osama Bin Laden

    but the military elite know he’s a rat leaker, and so kept him in the dark about the mission to ensure its success

    Here we go again. If a crisis is a bad thing to waste, it’s more fun to manufacture one.

    No one knows who might be part of Six; those guys don’t go off bragging about it. Most SEALs won‘t even mention they’re SEALs except to family. In public, in Class One dress, the only way you’ll know a man is SEAL is by the Trident badge above his fruit salad.

    Officially, the US government has never admitted Six even exists. It’s the best-kept non-secret there is except for Israeli nuclear weapons. Like with the British SAS, any member of Six caught talking to a reporter is out of the Team. Maybe out of the SEALs altogether.

    This is bullcookies. Obow is trying to brag while trying not to brag at the same time. If this phony Administration wants security so bad, all they have to do is shut up.

    But that won‘t fit Obow’s over-inflated ego, will it?

      Remember what the Iranians tried to do to the wife of Will Rogers III (who was captain of the missile frigate that shot down the Iranian airliner years ago by mistake)…The Iranian hit squads were out to kill him and his family!

This man is not a President of us all like he claimed in his inaugeration speech but a TOOL of special interest marxist figures like Trumpka, Stern, Soros, the IMF and UN…This is TREASON and directly responsible for the leaks should be impeached, tried, convicted, and executed for treason. Obama should be impeached, stripped of office, and then tried in a Military Court for Treason.

      The admin is the one leaking the info with BHO and his victory tour and ppl in the admin like Panetta with their constant blabbing about how the op was run and who did it. Ollie North was on Hannity and said they need to keep their big mouths shut. Anything happens to any family members of DEVGRU operators this admin is going to have problems they cannot even imagine!

      Said it before I will say it again BHO is extremely dangerous to this Republic be it the economy, foreign policy, treatment of military and police, his treatment towards anyone who disagrees with him etc! I also said last week after the raid they were painting the military in a bad light, throwing them under the bus, should this whole thing go truly sour PR wise internationally.

      That‘s not what I’m hearing. Agreed that Seals live with danger, but they don’t flaunt their accomplishments to those who are not in the loop, and when a person at the top of the equation cannot control his ego, it places these men in more danger. IRambama cannot control himself; he is feeding off the ‘glory’. I hope the Seals do not pay the ultimate price of that. Someone in his administration should tell him “Enough, already!” But they’re not going to upset their own applecarts. I expect that if Rambama does not reveal the identities of the Seals, Wikileaks will.

Obama did not have to go through channels to get his clearance, and that has been a huge mistake. His administration is truly the most transparent – IF you mean about sensitive information that protects America from harm. Are you actually part of that, because you have done a “good” job.

      American Family Radio reported earlier this year that Obama had turned over an undercover terrorist infiltrator. The infiltrator was an Israeli operative who was gathering intelligence, on terrorist activities. Obama claimed that posing as a terrorist made him able to be charged as a terrorist, so he turned the Israeli operative over to Iranian anti-terrorist authorities. He turned over a spy who would have shared information with us to the enemy. This is traitorous behavior, we should expect nothing else from him. The idea of him leaking sensitive information should be a forgone conclusion, by now.

      9-11 was an inside job, but it wasn‘t GW Bush’s fault.

      Uh-uh.

      …Except…GW Bush directly authorized the Valerie Plame leak according to Scott McClelland.

      Scottie McC: But the other defining moment was in early April 2006, when I learned that the President had secretly declassified the National Intelligence Estimate on Iraq for the Vice President and Scooter Libby to anonymously disclose to reporters. And we had been out there talking about how seriously the President took the selective leaking of classified information. And here we were, learning that the President had authorized the very same thing we had criticized.

      Viera: Did you talk to the President and say why are you doing this?

      Scottie McC: Actually, I did. I talked about the conversation we had. I walked onto Air Force One, it was right after an event we had, it was down in the south, I believe it was North Carolina. And I walk onto Air Force One and a reporter had yelled a question to the President trying to ask him a question about this revelation that had come out during the legal proceedings. The revelation was that it was the President who had authorized, or, enable Scooter Libby to go out there and talk about this information. And I told the President that that’s what the reporter was asking. He was saying that you, yourself, was the one that authorized the leaking of this information. And he said “yeah, I did.” And I was kinda taken aback.

      Your stupid ass thinks I’m supposed to believe the “independent council” of Patrick Fitzgerald who totally railroaded Rod Blagojevich to make him the fallguy on Obama’s behalf? You’re stupider than I thought.

      No, ty.

      I think President Bush’s Liar Secretary (Press Secretary) was telling the truth when he said Bush told him directly that he ordered Plame’s leak. Why would he lie after losing his job to Tony Snow…it isn’t like he has any future doing anything…

      But that’s ok.

      WE ALL KNOW PRESIDENT BUSH ISN’T RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT OCCURRED DURING HIS ADMINISTRATION.

      Neocon propaganda 101.

      Code_Orange, you really need to shut up. People like you are what contributes to security leaks. Really. Whatever you think you know, keep it to yourself.

      You clown, you wouldn’t know reason if it punched you in the stomach and made you regurgitate your official kool-aid.

      Thank you for exempting yourself from any further logical discussion. The “conspiracy nut” has trounced you once again in debate.

      It isn‘t that I’m “too gone to be reasoned with”…you’re just too stupid and uninformed to actually debate me with coherent arguments, therefor you regress to flippant dismissal as if you have the high ground, but you look stupid and flailing because your entire argument has disintegrated.
