Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Obama says Biden advised against raid on Osama bin Laden

Nov 15, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer 16 Comments

Biden was no doubt motivated in this case purely by pragmatic considerations; there is no indication that Hunter Biden was on bin Laden’s payroll. But there is also no doubt that a Biden administration, with its inevitable focuses on “Islamophobia” and “right-wing extremism” rather than jihad terror, would enable a massive expansion of jihad operations within the United States.

“Joe Biden advised against Osama bin Laden raid, Barack Obama writes,” by Martin Pengelly, Guardian, November 12, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Joe Biden advised Barack Obama to wait to order the raid that killed Osama bin Laden, the former president writes in his new memoir.

“Joe weighed in against the raid,” Obama writes in A Promised Land, about discussion of the Navy Seals mission, which he ordered to go ahead as intended in Abbottabad, Pakistan, on the night of 1-2 May 2011.

Obama’s book will be published on Tuesday. Guardian US has seen a copy. Obama writes that his vice-president, who will follow him to the White House in January, immediately supported his decision to proceed with the Bin Laden raid….

Biden has said that during group discussion of whether to order the raid, he advised Obama to take more time, saying: “Don’t go.” He has also said he subsequently told Obama to “follow your instincts”.

In his memoir, Obama echoes the accounts of other senior aides present in the White House Situation Room nine years ago who have said Biden counselled caution….

      Oh, God–another 9/11 “Truther” claiming that this Jihad terror attack had nothing to do with Islam, but was pulled off by the “filthy Infidels” to make Islam look bad. Try again, creep.

        g,
        have you actually read the reports from the University and the Firemen who looked into the destruction of Tower 7?

        Call me names too, if you wish, but I have read them and I don’t find that the “blame” is laid at the feet of regular people wanting to make islam “look bad.”

        there have been “infidel” crooks and many moslims ‘on the inside” of the government for a very, very long time. And, many “infidels” are helping moslims accomplish islamic goals…right before our eyes.

        There is more to the attack than the msm has ever reported…or will ever report.

        I once took the government at its word…until Gary Powers admitted that he was in fact, flying a spy plane over Russia.

          Dear Somehistory, I respect you greatly. But it is *quite* possible for buildings to collapse under the weight of debris, and the Twin Towers released a great of debris onto surrounding buildings, including Building 7.

          And you may be an exception–I’m sure you are–but most who claim that 9/11 was an “inside job” are trying to say that it had nothing to do with Jihad. That Matt0723–a poster I am not familiar with–had nothing to say but this on a story about Osama bin Laden indeed implies that he is saying that this Jihadist murderer had nothing to do with 9/11.

    Joe Biden won the election the same way Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide …. with a little help from his “friends.”

    ChristianTreehouse has now announced that it has received notice from WordPress that it is being deplatformed as of December 2.

    Robert Spencer, David Wood, Christian Prince, and everyone who visits their sites should drop what they’re doing and devote every minute of their time in the next three weeks to the reelection of President Trump. This is possible in one of two ways.

    SCOTUS can rule that the election is so pervaded, enveloped and poisoned with fraud that it is unable to determine who won. The only thing which is clear is that the election was too fraudulent to be constitutional. If SCOTUS blows the opportunity to save the nation and the Democrats steal the two Georgia Senate runoffs, Biden will enlarge Scotus and the 5 conservative originalists thereon will have signed the Court’s death warrant.

    The last resort is for the swing state legislatures which are controlled by Republicans to refuse to appoint electors and instead to refer the election to the House, where the rule is one vote per State. Under this rule, the Republicans now control the House and will control the House after January 3, 2020 by 31-19. President Trump’s re-election is not a long shot. It is a sure thing if Republicans have the courage to stand up to the obvious fraud and not allow the Democrats to steal this election.

    Republicans can control the fate of the nation if they refuse to be intimidated.

    I recommend that everyone listen to this talk by Jennifer Zeng, whose website is ironically named Inconvenient Truths.

      The GOP control state government will not do it as there no evidence of massive vote faud as court cases rule there is no massively faud in. The vote count.

        Does “Brian Hoff”–really, “DefenderofIslam”–have a problem with Biden advising Obama not to take out Osama bin Laden? Not so he says…

    They both want to play both sides of the field….kill a moslim “hero” and moslims hate them. Kill a moslim “terrorist” and the regular people approve.

    So, how to get the moslims on their side? We didn’t want to kill him, but we had to go with our “instincts,” and we …it was such a difficult decision…we chewed on it for days and days and then we heard that the other ‘o’…the rich saudi cave-dwelling slime, had kidney failure…so we decided it would be okay…but we also needed to kill those who killed the ‘hero.’

    And then we ordered a ‘hero’s’ burial for the moslim terrorist, er freedom fighter.

      I think it was more that once the Navy Seals said they had found bin Laden that if they *didn’t* act it would bad if this came out publicly that Obama just sat on this information.

    It will take vary strong willed leaders to do what’s right. I pray that there are a few good men and women left who care about America and our liberty.
