No I ddint

The OBL mission wasnt a fact gathering mission, it was an assassination with chance to gather information. otherwise they wouldnt have been planning to be in and out in under hour (I think it was 45 min). If the mission was a fact gathering mission then it failed the minute they left 4 wives, kids, and a helicopter behind. As that tainted the lifespan of any information gathered.

I suspect the wives left behind so they would alert their Pakistani handlers and AQ contacts that OBL was leaking brain matter. Which would allow US intell to establish and track the command and control elements in Pakistan.

This video is more to do about politics than opsec. and it's trying to remove Obama's military achievements because polls are showing the dems are beating the repubs. in national safety/defense issues

Gathering intel is always a priority and especially going into a compound that belongs to Osama.

There was absolutely no reason to put those Seals and their families in danger by disclosing their involvement. "Our military/government agencies conducted a mission that killed Osama" would have sufficed.
