- Everything went wrong from the start;
- They had to destroy an Osprey because it experienced a hard landing that damaged it;
- A SEAL 6 member died, several other participants suffered injuries;
- Some defense officials blame inadequate planning and intelligence, others are pointing to the risk of such a mission;
- Obama had previously rejected the boots on the ground mission;
- They accidentally killed an American citizen -- an 8 year old girl;
- They may have killed up to 30 innocent civilians;
- The Emperor's team claims that they killed at least 14 Al Qaeda members, even though that wasn't their mission;
- When The Emperor approved of the mission, he was surrounded by political strategists and military officials, over dinner;
- No legal advice was provided;
- The Emperor wasn't in the Situation Room when the operation was under way;
- The intelligence presented as a win, was in fact 10 years old and publicly available.
In other words, The Emperor's first military operation was a 100% failure (partial credit was given for killing Al Qaeda members but subsequently deducted for failure to understand the two extremist factions fighting each other and going against his word of seeking peace in the ME).
Expect more of the same.
