Ex-Seal Team 6 Member Slams U.S. Leadership
No. 1 threat to security: ‘Inability to make a decision’
WND
In a recorded radio interview to be broadcast in full Sunday, a former Navy SEAL team leader in the raid that killed Osama bin Laden criticized Washington’s handling of the war on terror, including the U.S. response to ISIS.
The former SEAL, who wrote the controversial 2012 bestselling book “No Easy Day” under the pen name Mark Owen, conducted a prerecorded interview for the popular weekend talk show “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio” on New York’s AM 970 The Answer.
An advanced recording of the interview was obtained by WND.
Klein asked Owen to rate the U.S. government’s war on terror amid ISIS advances in Iraq and Syria and the rise of al-Qaida-linked groups in Libya and beyond.
While stressing that he doesn’t like to get political, Owen stated: “We have a saying: ‘In the absence of order, take charge and lead.’ I don’t think there’s any leadership going on right now. All right.”
Continued Owen: “I heard somebody speak recently, and they said the number one threat to the national security to the United States of America is Washington, D.C.’s inability to make a decision. I have to agree with that. Eventually, somebody needs to make a decision. Right, wrong or otherwise.”
