Obama took SIXTEEN HOURS to make up his mind about Bin Laden mission

Why did it take 16 hours for Obama to give the go ahead to kill Bin Laden by attacking his compound where they knew he was staying? We have also learned that the military wanted to use a stealth bomber four months ago to take out the compound but Obama vetoed that move. WHY?

We are having a real problem with the fact that four helicopters cross into Pakistani air space going at least 100 miles into the country undetected. Do we now have stealth helicopters? They have on a 40-minute firefight, only one neighbor tweets and the nearby military installation does nothing or the local cops? Then they have to evacuate people living where the helicopter went down before they blew it up and no one in Pakistan noticed?  Then the helicopters fly back across Pakistan to Kabul before flying the body to the Carl Vinson in the Arabian Sea for burial? At least that is the story the White House wants us to believe about Pakistan today.  It could change in a couple of hours which has been happening since this was first announced. 

We are not talking a civilian town but a town of 100,000 filled with military and their families and they noticed nothing? Washington Post reports:

At the time of the raid, bin Laden was at his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, a military and tourist town of about 100,000 people. The compound was located in a neighborhood populated by military families one mile from the elite Pakistan Military Academy.

If Pakistan air defenses are this bad, the US has not gotten its money's worth from all the aid.  Four helicopters flying in from ? and no detection.  Here is a map from the Washington Post of the flight of Bin Laden's body:

We are told it was a 40-minute firefight but they were only on the ground for 38 minutes. Does that mean after two minutes they landed the SEAL Team? Some of the story has changed quite a bit including the comments from mouthpiece of the Obama administration at the press conference today.

Are members of the White House Press Corps going to ask the tough questions or are the British papers who have been doing the investigations going to continue to supply Americans with the facts our own media ignore?

President 'slept on it' as tense military chiefs awaited decision

Action started the next morning when Obama declared 'it's a go'

Mission delayed by one day after heavy cloud cover on Saturday night

Navy seals dodged Pakistani security to reach Bin Laden's lair

Outpouring of emotion on streets down to 'the same sense of unity that prevailed on 9/11' Obama told members of Congress

Barack Obama kept military commanders hanging by declaring he would 'sleep on it' before taking 16 hours to give the go-ahead to raid Bin Laden's compound.

Hit squads of specialist Navy Seals - who were not even told who they were preparing to capture - had practised the mission at two reconstructions of the terror chiefs sprawling compound.

The mission looked set to be given the all clear last Thursday when analysts confirmed beyond doubt that Bin Laden was in busy town of Abbottabad in northern Pakistan.

But the president stunned officials when he told a national security meeting that he wanted more time to think - and disappeared out of the room.

'I'm not going to tell you what my decision is now - I'm going to go back and think about it some more,' said Obama, according to the New York Times. He then added 'I'm going to make a decision soon.'
The head of the CIA and other senior intelligence officers who were keen to proceed were left tense as they waited for the president's decision.

But the next morning after 16 hours, Obama summoned four top aides to the White House Diplomatic Room. Before they could speak, the president put his fist on the table and declared 'It's a go'.

With those three words, the greatest military operation in recent history began. Had it not been for heavy cloud cover on Saturday, troops would have been deployed then.

But they waited another day, and reached Pakistan just before midnight on Sunday evening. Obama refused to tell Pakistan about the mission in case it was leaked by jihadist sympathisers within the administration and Bin Laden took flight.

As the time has gone by and more and more Obama people speak out, the stories are changing at a rapid pace.  I was writing on this blog when one of the stories I was going to use changed.  This afternoon one news outlet is saying two helicopters and another outlets says four were used with one that went down with mechanical difficulty which still find hard to believe that these special helicopters were not in tip top shape to make this trip.

What will be the latest news on this in the next 24 hours?  Stay tuned as the Administration tries to get its stories straight.  Obama and his inept Administration have managed to take the spectacular news of Bin Laden being dead and have made people like us start to question their stories because they never are just straightforward as they make no sense to anyone who has been around the military.
