    Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist Samuel Hersh claimed yesterday that the Obama administration lied to the American people about certain aspects aspects of the 2011 raid that killed Osama Bin Laden. According to Hersh, the United States did not act alone when Navy SEALs were sent to capture or kill the world’s most wanted terrorist. The real story, according to the report, is that members of Pakistani intelligence services were privy to the raid months before it happened and that it was a “walk-in” Pakistani intelligence officer who gave up the location of Bin Laden rather than a CIA operation that tracked him down by following various couriers. Further, it has been claimed that Bin Laden was not buried at sea the way the Obama administration said, but rather, his limbs were simply thrown from the helicopter after the mission (suggesting that some portion of his body, perhaps his head, were retained for posterity’s sake).

    It’s  a markedly different story than the one President Obama told on the night he announced Bin Laden’s death. In that nationally televised speech the President took credit for ordering the raid and made it clear it was a unilateral action involving only American assets.

    The Obama administration has spent the last 24 hours working to discredit the story. Pentagon spokesman Col. Steve Warren said the report from Hersh was “largely a fabrication” with “too many inaccuracies.” The White House says the Hersh’s investigation is riddled with inaccuracies.

    But according to NBC News, which has reportedly been conducting their own investigation for the last several years, Hersh’s claims aren’t that inaccurate after all.

    Two intelligence sources tell NBC News that the year before the U.S. raid that killed Osama bin Laden, a “walk in” asset from Pakistani intelligence told the CIA where the most wanted man in the world was hiding – and these two sources plus a third say that the Pakistani government knew where bin Laden was hiding all along.

    The U.S. government has always characterized the heroic raid by Seal Team Six that killed bin Laden as a unilateral U.S. operation, and has maintained that the CIA found him by tracking couriers to his walled complex in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

    The new revelations do not necessarily cast doubt on the overall narrative that the White House began circulating within hours of the May 2011 operation. The official story about how bin Laden was found was constructed in a way that protected the identity and existence of the asset, who also knew who inside the Pakistani government was aware of the Pakistani intelligence agency’s operation to hide bin Laden, according to a special operations officer with prior knowledge of the bin Laden mission. The official story focused on a long hunt for bin Laden’s presumed courier, Ahmed al-Kuwaiti.

    The NBC News sources who confirm that a Pakistani intelligence official became a “walk in” asset include the special operations officer and a CIA officer who had served in Pakistan. These two sources and a third source, a very senior former U.S. intelligence official, also say that elements of the ISI were aware of bin Laden’s presence in Abbottabad. The former official was emphatic about the ISI’s awareness, saying twice, “They knew.”

    Video report:

    The one thing that President Obama could hail as a success during his tenure as President has now been exposed as an outright lie.

    It looks like all those ‘conspiracy nuts’ who took issue with the “official” story following the President’s original announcement of bin Laden’s death were not so crazy after all. There’s a reason millions of Americans have lost trust in their government, and especially with the sitting President of the United States. It’s because we have been consistently lied to about anything and everything of any significance.

    What else are they lying about?

    Fast and Furious gun running? Economic recovery? Official unemployment numbers? Jade Helm military exercises? The Ukraine conflict? Or, what about the deaths of SEAL team members that were supposedly involved with Bin Laden raid?

    Flashback: Representative Joe Wilson breaks State of the Union Decorum when he shouts “You Lie” during President Obama’s speech.

    How right he was…

    At this point, nothing they say can be trusted.

      1. this administration has been full of shit from day one. they have lied so much that they cant keep up with the web they’ve spun anymore.

        • Story Unravels: NBC News Confirms Obama Lied About Bin Laden Raid: Sources Include High Level U.S. Intelligence Officers

          Obola is a Lying Liberal Fascist.

          • obola belongs to one of those religion’s where lying is an accepted part of his core beliefs. The end justifies the means that is all that matter’s.

            • “Lying for the Lord” is part of what Mormons have been taught, in order to win people over to their way of thinking.

            • Obama Bin Liein

          • “Hersh missed the biggest fake of all in the raid. The real Osama Bin laden died in December of 2001 (and was widely reported in the foreign press). Whoever it was that was killed in the raid wasn’t bin Laden, nor could pass for him, which is why the body was dumped into the ocean, and the internet flooded with poorly made fake photos trying to “prove” Obama got Osama.”

            • thank you. Ok Hersh, you put some dirt on the president–but the dude has been dead for years–kidney failure. Navy Seals dead–why?–because maybe they’d say–that guy wasn’t bin Laden!

              • B-Dave,
                YOU got it buddy, our F—-ing government will do anything to shore up whatever scam or lie they need to. IF you have not noticed our government is SPLIT in TWO factions and i DON’T mean dem or rep it is split between basically good and EVIL and it appears at the moment evil is winning. lets just hope the civil war will backfire on the evil ones and we will win, BUT if your into prophecy, WELLL !!! might not turn out they way we would like it to at first!

            • So a MSM source admitted that the african virus lied about something? ELIZABETH, I’M COMING TO JOIN YOU HONEY. THIS IS THE BIG ONE! [SARCASM]

            • European American – THANK YOU for pointing this out. Osama was NOT KILLED in that 2011 raid. The Seal team (6) was going to “spill the beans” about that and got killed for their attempt at honesty. Try to be honest and get killed for the attempt. NO WONDER this country is in such bad shape. How many people are aware of that detail?

        • A noose for each politician and unelected bureaucrat plus their willing enforcers should do it. Or bullets.

        • It now makes sense how the Feds were bending over backwards to get that movie out about the bin laden raid, featuring protested ‘confidential’ info. It was all a crock, a scam. Another investors venture btw holly weird and berry the ferry

        • disclaimer: The following comment is directed at the NBC news reporters, and in no way is intended to impugn or criticize SHTF Plan or its staff.

          On Dec. 24, 2001, CNN reported that Osama Bin Laden was dead. So, NBC, what are your crack reporters actually saying to anyone? Or did you think we’d just forget? Or was CNN the one who was lying, but you’re telling the truth? I think that something happened in Abbotobad back in 2011, but not what they are telling. So, what did happen that night during a daring SEAL team insertion into Pakistan? It’s not so much amazing the bold-faced lies they publish, but the way they think we’re going to believe it. We’re used to the lies by now, and it’s come to be what we expect from them before anything else, but c’mon guys, it’s not even entertainment value any more.

      2. Anyone here surprised???

        • Not in the least eppe

          I’ve been awake and aware since about 5:26 pm on 9/11/01 when they jumped the gun on wtc7 falling early.

        • Stupid fucker lies every time he opens his mouth.

          • Care to elaborate on which stupid fucker lies? As far as I’m concerned they all do

            • CC, good question. Which stupid fucker? The govt. is full of those.

        • Won’t change a GD thing. Never does. Now the RINOS in DC are siding with Obama on the Trans Pacific Trade deal. This is one bizaro fucked up world we are in. Now I am on the Democrats side trying to keep some of the jobs in the US. WTF, again.

        • I am, that it hasn’t been said that a CIA agent killed Osama.

      3. The entire story is pure bullshit (like so much of our “news” is these days). I didn’t believe any of it from day one.

      4. What’s next?

        The president just declared: “I never had sexual relations with that (muslim) woman….”

      5. Why is this “president” still in office?

        • Because our elected officials are afraid to kick this turd to the curb because the controlled media would brand them as being raciest.

          • Actually, because they all want the same thing and only pretend they don’t.

            • yup yup!!!!

      6. Well since Bin Laden actually died in late 2001, it makes sense that his assassination was pure bullshit.

      7. Classic limited hangout. Missing was, as the former prime minister of Pakistan reported before she was assassinated, OBL had been dead for a while. They must’ve killed someone else as a cynical PR stunt.

      8. OBL died sometime in Dec 2001in a cave in Tora Bora due to advanced kidney disease

        The last 14 years and obviously a lot longer than that have been 100% utter bullshît.

        I mean this sincerely , best of luck to you all now that it is starting to collapse. The world is unraveling all around us and a lot of good people are going to suffer. My advice is to make it as pleasant and normal for your kids as possible.

        Just my 3 cents

      9. Sarcastically quoting “At this point in time, what difference does it make”.

        The way they hurriedly and honorably buried Bin Laudin at sea in accordance with islamic law, it was obvious that there was some type of bullshit lies being perpetrated upon the American people. The only ones being fooled were the ones that wanted to be fooled.

          • Bush had teleprompter problems just like the african virus.

            • You can’t compare Obama to bush, Braveheart– no matter how much you may hate Obummer… at least Obama does have a brain– even if its corrupt as hell… bush had none! there is simply no comparison!

              I detest them both because they both destroyed our country. But the TRUTH– if you are interested in Truth– is that Obama DOES SPEAK WELL AND BUSH WAS AN IDIOT. PERIOD!

          • Triple cringe.

          • THANK YOU SO MUCH, ENEMY OF THE STATE!!! I really loved this video!!!

            I hated Bush/Cheney with a passion, but one thing for sure: no one can outdo Bush as comedian– he was the best!!! (And he wasn’t even trying!!) 😉

      10. Hmmmm

        Ben Laden was probably dead years before he “died”

      11. Once a liar always a liar. The die has been cast we can not trust our government.

      12. Bin Ladin? You mean Tim Osman, the cia agent the criminals used and then used up. Another Lee Harvey Oswald.

      13. Obama died in 2001.
        Who is the editor of SHTF?…..the Lochness monster.
        What a load of S!

        Conservative Going Blind, Defied Obamacare Mandate, Failed by GOP blocking Medicaid – Blames Obama

        ht tp://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/05/12/1384215/-Conservative-Going-Blind-Defied-Obamacare-Mandate-Failed-by-GOP-blocking-Medicaid-Blames-Obama

        I’ve come across quite a few cases like this
        idiots who brag about how they never go to the doctor
        and then
        WHAM
        out of left field a heart attack, a stroke or bad accident
        wipes them out in MINUTES

        life is hard
        it’s harder when yer da stoopid

        I’m INCREDIBLY fortunate in that I have an EXCELLENT health care plan from my employer
        it has saved me from literally a lifetime of debt

        I was always extremely healthy
        UNTIL…..

      17. Osama bin Laden was in the American hospital in Dubai for three weeks in July prior to 9/11. During 9/11 he was in a hospital in Pakistan. When he left, he had with him a portable dialysis machine. Bin Laden was dying of kidney disease. So, we’re supposed to believe that for the following ten years he never had to go back to a hospital? Far more likely is that, like everyone in the Mideast believes, he died in December, 2001. I don’t know who the SEALS dropped in on and murdered in Pakistan, but it wasn’t Osama bin Laden.

        • Seals didn’t kill anyone , that whole show was another big fat lie

          • enemy

            I’ve always thought the same thing, the whole thing was likely all kabuki theatre. Everything from the guy tweeting about explosions in the middle of the night, to the perfectly placed super duper top secret “stealth” helicopter tail rotor on the outside of the wall, all the way down to the interview on fox news with the “man who shot Osama” (which btw should seal the deal for any who still don’t realize that fox is state controlled and all part of the same machine). The whole entire thing stunk to high heaven from the get go. The sheer amount of lies we have been told by our gov’t, and their propaganda arm known as the media, just in the last 4 or 5 years is mind blowing. And what’s worse is how so few seem to have the capacity for critical thought and unable to see it. I sometimes worry maybe I am actually the crazy one, but then I just have to turn on my tv and it’s so plain to see, and then I feel better again, until I realize that since I’m not crazy… we are all completely FUKT

      18. i notice no one ever seems to mention that 10 to 15 minutes after the first plane hit, that every single channel on tv said bin laden did it. this was then repeated every 5 to 10 minutes for a week. no one found this odd. they did an investigation in 1 minute

        • I knew 9/11 was a false flag when the BBC announced Tower 7 collapsed 20 minutes before it actually did and it was never struck by anything on the outside. Must have been bombs planted on the inside just like in the other towers.

          • I live in jersey, my wife’s cousin died in the second tower, I know fireman ,who say a plane DID NOT, bring them towers down.

          • What were the contents of WTC7 that had to be destroyed?
            Who conveniently did not show up for work on 9-11-01?
            Who made the “fortuitous” stock trades at precisely the right time?
            Who paid Popular Mechanics to do a “story” refuting conspiracy theories on the collapse of the towers?

            Does anyone believe that everyone in the room watching the raid in real time in that picture were really that somber and focused? Hardly. That slimeball Hillary would have shown up drunk with a party hat laughing yet again , “we came, we saw, and we killed him.”

            The questions could go on forever.

        • jake

          kinda like how they almost instantaneously were able to confirm that the Russians shot down the Malaysian airliner. Things that make you go, Hmmmmmmmmmmm….

          But no worries, I’m sure it’s true, now can we get back to something really important like tom brady’s friggin footballs

          God help us

      19. And then he had the whole seal team murdered to cover his deception.

        • Not sure why the spec ops dont drop in on the wh..
          They have to be fiming mad…

      20. Bin Laden was long dead before 9/11. There was no boogeymans from a dark cave in the middle east hating our freedoms.

      21. You’ve convinced me. What’s next?

      22. All I have to say is this:: Anything thing the Government say’s take it in a 180 degree mind set and you will have the truth. Folks everything that is happening now and this summer is a huge SH~T SANDWICH and I not biting in to it. Look in the opposing direction. Jade Helm is not it, this is nothing more than setting up a defensive perimeter to protect the traitors of our country from the horde of PIS~ED OFF AMERICAN’S. The threat we must look to is NORTH and EAST. The Southwest is the only land avenue to Central and South America and must be kept OPEN. I fear some sort of a massive nuke false flag in Northeast or the Upper Mid-West or both that will cause people to want to leave those area’s. Refugee’s have little to no RESISTENCE. The horde will be the homeless on the move.

        Copperhead the old crazy man!

        • Copperhead:

          Today on CNN word is the US is afraid there will be a 9/11 type attack by ISIS.

          Our government IS preparing another false flag attack and you can rest assured it will be on a 9/11 scale; big enough to convince Americans to send our kids to war!

          • Likely will see another event late this year worse than 9/11.

          • FTM

            I don’t know if they’ll need something that big, as gullible as most Americans are these days. Although I think they are still pretty pissed that their BS Assad chemical weapons attack didn’t work and Americans actually stood up and said not NO but HELL NO (which was a rare bright spot) But of course right after that we started arming “the moderate rebels” and then lo and behold what comes marching down the Euphrates??? ISIS!!! And we bought that one hook line and sinker. A few well timed, well filmed, and well publicized, simultaneous attacks will probably be enough to scare the pants off of most the average sheeple. I mean we didn’t even question the legality of bombing a sovereign nation, after we watched an admittedly fake beheading video for God’s sake. Oh but I forgot we are only bombing isis (the same people fighting assad) and who are our assets helping us on the ground? Oh that’s right the moderate rebels (the same people fighting assad) So if I got this right, the moderate rebels are going to stop fighting the “evil dictator” assad, and turn their guns on the same guys helping them fight assad? Oh and I assume when they help identify a target for an airstrike it will assuredly be an isis (people fighting assad) stronghold, not a Syrian army’s weapons depot or other strategically important asset for assad, right??? Has no one ever heard of the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Can people really not recognize how absurd this all is. If we are this friggin dumb, well then I guess we deserve exactly what we’re going to get. Wake up people!! we created isis, we armed isis, we fund isis, we are isis. isis is strictly a ruse to get us back into Iraq and into Syria. I’m not saying that none of it is real, people will die, people will be killing, but isis is the puppet, the gov’t is the puppetmaster, and we are the special little kids in the audience applauding for an encore

      23. He is a politican and an attorney. I would be more surprised if he told the truth.

      24. The lowest of understatements:

        At this point, nothing they say can be trusted.

        Of course, that could have been written 75-100 years ago.

      25. We have known for years that if you can see their lips moving, they’re lying. Hang them all.

      26. BS upon BS, the BS still continues. Why? 1). Simply put because Bin Laden wasn’t killed in that raid. Bin Laden was already dead years before. 2). He wasn’t buried at sea 4 hours later after being killed in the so called raid.

        I mean come on, buried at sea according to Muslim tradition? These demon worshpping A-holes in DC mock us as they commit their treason and crimes against Americans and people throughout the world. They figure hey, “we’ve chemtrail sprayed them for over a decade, and we haven’t been stopped, hell, we can get away with anything.”

        The A-holes in DC are deceived though, their day is coming upon them hard and fast, and they don’t even see it coming. Unless they repent, they are going to pay dearly, they are going to pay for eternity for what they have committed themselves to doing now.

        • I’m not that smart and was a member of the sheep for far too long but even I knew it wasn’t true when they said OBL was buried at sea. Everything stinks to high heaven. Wonder what the administration will dump on NBC because of this? Someone’s gonna get punished over there.

      27. When an administration like this one, “loses” their main propaganda organ-NBC, than things are unraveling far faster and far worse than anyone can even speculate.
        Not surprised that even NBC is getting on the Hersh Bandwagon on this one. The media(and especially NBC) has been complicit and a WILLING co-conspirator in the lies and attacks on this administration’s political and personal enemies. What a bunch of scum.

      28. 7,231,000 Lost Jobs: Manufacturing Employment Down 37% From 1979 Peak

        h ttp://cnsnews.com/news/article/terence-p-jeffrey/7231000-lost-jobs-manufacturing-employment-down-37-1979-peak

        “The real median household income of Americans who have completed high school–but have not attained a higher degree–also peaked in the 1970s and has declined since then.

        In fact, according to the Census Bureau (Tables H-13 and H-14), the real median household income of an American householder who has completed four years of high school peaked in 1973 at $56,395 in constant 2013 dollars. By 2013, it was down to $40,701. That is a drop of $15,694–or 27.8 percent. ”

        this wasn’t by accident
        and the TTP is another nail in the coffin

        current headline on DRUDGE
        “Dems Sink Obamatrade
        GOP Vows to Salvage”

        yeah that’s right
        the Rethugs are fighting like hell for TTP
        because America apparently hasn’t lost enough manufacturing jobs
        and whats left of the middle class is still making too much money

        anybody still locked into that left/right bullsh_t ???

      29. Satori, your right on the money. The F..ks engineered it, and gutted the frickin economy right in front us. I work in financial services and I can tell you, we are really screwed. Those are the numbers and figures. Its our right scary. Its as if we don’t have anything that even indicates that our economy is still here. This was engineering to purposely calapse the economy for jade helm roundups. All the pieces of the puzzle are just now miraculously falling into place. What a strange coincidence isn’t it.

      30. A little evidence always helps. Who really “knows” what the government does other than overspend and redistribute wealth.

      31. I don’t pretend to know what’s going on here but, nobody really cared about how OBL got his, as long as he was got. Why tell a story about something like this? Even a putz like BHO would know that. Maybe we’re all being played here in a way that’s not yet apparent..

      32. OBL has been dead for years. He went from issuing video statements to issuing cassette tape statements. That’s when he really died. From natural causes.

      33. You can keep your doctor.

        I’d almost forgotten about this sort of thing
        the government produced MANY binLaden tapes some years ago
        I loved watching them
        Osama’s beard was almost totally gray in one of them
        and in the next one apparently he used a little “Just for Men”
        and touched up the gray
        in the next one
        the gray was totally gone
        who knew fundamentalist Islamists used hair dye ???

        and the one where he was wearing gold jewelry ?

        PRICELESS

      36. The American people demand to be lied to. If it’s not obola it will be someone else it’s looking like it will be a liberal woman like Hillary or Elizabeth warren. We are totally fucked America is finished folks. Obama don’t care about white people. I think we haven’t been t the moon either that can be faked. If we went there why wouldn’t we go back and build a base. We would if we had been there before. We all know Hollywood and tptb are in on it together. Everything they say is to help further their agenda. Remember never let a crisis go to waste.

      37. Welcome to the big show!

        It is the music of a people who are climbing to the light.
        For the wretched of the earth
        There is a flame that never dies
        Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.
        We will live again in freedom
        In the garden of the Lord
        We will walk behind the plowshare
        We will put away the sword
        The chain will be broken
        And all men will have their reward!
        Will you join in our crusade?
        Who will be strong and stand with me?
        Somewhere beyond the barricade
        Is there a world you long to see?
        Do you hear the people sing?
        Say do you hear the distant drums?
        It is the future that we bring when tomorrow comes!”

        …and yeah, Hersch aint tellin no truth unless he acknowledges that Bin Laden died in December 01.

      39. Watching late night tv David letterman is retiring , that show was making fun out of the bin laden stories , willy clinton was on the show. They laughed the audience applauded . He’s been a New York guy all his career .
        This is what concerns me , he’s talking about retiring , and he’s moving to Montana , he has millions and of all the places to live he’s going out in the wilderness,away from every body and it almost seems like he’s in a hurry.

      40. I think we need to redouble our efforts to find out why Seal Team 6 members were , for all practical purposes, lured into an ambush that essentially guaranteed their execution. This is the next logical step. From there, more lies, deception, and coverup will ne exposed, to Benzhazi and beyond.
