To the editor: First, kudos to the women and men who carried out Operation Midnight Hammer (“Early evaluation says Iran’s nuclear websites broken however not destroyed,” June 24). They did precisely what they had been requested to do. Now we’re left with the query as as to if or not the goal, as reported by the president, was “fully and completely obliterated,” or maybe the nuclear materials had been moved to a different location. Time will inform.
Now suppose again to Could 2, 2011, when Seal Crew 6 efficiently entered Osama bin Laden’s compound, situated him and killed him. This mission was carried out below President Obama after troops had been totally briefed and the subsequent morning given the go order. Think about then, like now, the troops had completely executed their orders solely to search out Bin Laden wasn’t there. Simply consider the criticism and mock Obama would have suffered. We’ll see if Trump’s claims had been appropriate.
