NATO copter downed; Navy SEALs among the 30 U.S. dead

Amrika killed OBL-
and Taliban killed the whole seal 6 team which took part in OBL raid-

who won?-
 
. .
I'm interested to know if these 20 seals were the exact same guys who took out Osama Bin Laden?
 
. . .
This sure will be a great boost in the Morale of the Taliban. And to make matters worse for the US all the Talibanis are going to say the ones who died are the same exact ones who killed Bin Laden and that they died by some sort of Godly Miracle.

If anything this incident may just be the thing that makes it impossible for the US to pull out any time soon. And if they do it will be branded another Vietnam something the US is very very not in favor of.
 
. .
What if they are?

Could be a silencing move... Self-goal of sorts.

Reminiscent of Zia's murder. 8% of the Team 6 elite force taken out in one shot... Questions have to be asked. Given that people hardly were satisfied with the details of Osama's killing and wanted more info and these chaps were the ones who knew exactly what happened.

US choppers haven't been shot down by RPG in 10 years in Afghanistan and suddenly two Chinooks in two weeks?

Or is it to ensure that the SEALs are not traceable as they retire? ;)

Hmm. Well, Obama has set out an exit strategy. This recent attacks clearly prove that Taliban is still alive and doing well. Any blowbacks caused by withdrawing from Afghanistan would be blamed on America and leaving on the midst of accomplishing a mission will cause more trouble later on.

Also possible, but you just don't expect such kindness from the US, plus they would be taking on a hell of a PR mess burden if one of these guys speaks up from retirement. The US's no. 1 would be to secure itself not the soldier.

Why does this thread have bunch of stars on it? Because Americans got killed? Something to "celebrate" on pakdef?

Where are you seeing stars?

There is pretty much indifference, according to us this war is now being continued by the US and the US alone. There can be sympathy for the soldier, but not the US government who needs to be given some flak for these lives lost. 30 Dead? We've lost, 30,000.
