Obama canceled Bin Laden ‘kill’ raid three times at Jarrett’s urging

At the urging of Valerie Jarrett, President Barack Obama canceled the operation to kill Osama bin Laden on three separate occasions before finally approving the May 2, 2011 Navy SEAL mission, according to an explosive new book scheduled for release August 21. The Daily Caller has seen a portion of the chapter in which the stunning revelation appears.
In ”Leading From Behind: The Reluctant President and the Advisors Who Decide for Him,“ Richard Miniter writes that Obama canceled the “kill” mission in January 2011, again in February, and a third time in March. Obama’s close adviser Valerie Jarrett persuaded him to hold off each time, according to the book.
Miniter, a two-time New York Times best-selling author, cites an unnamed source with Joint Special Operations Command who had direct knowledge of the operation and its planning.
Leading From Behind
Obama administration officials also said after the raid that the president had delayed giving the order to kill the arch-terrorist the day before the operation was carried out, in what turned out to be his fourth moment of indecision. At the time, the White House blamed the delay on unfavorable weather conditions near bin Laden’s compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
But when Miniter obtained that day’s weather reports from the U.S. Air Force Combat Meteorological Center, he said, they showed ideal conditions for the SEALs to carry out their orders.
“President Obama’s greatest success was actually his greatest failure,” Miniter told The Daily Caller Friday. ”Leading From Behind,“ he said, traces the arc of six key Obama administration decisions, and shows how the president made them — and, often, failed to make them.
Another chapter, he told TheDC, concerns the push to pass the Affordable Care Act. The president, Miniter said, was less interested than then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in passing his own signature legislative achievement.
Osama bin Laden steered the global operations of the al-Qaida terror network until his death last year at the hands of the U.S. Navy’s SEAL Team Six. The president and his surrogates have made the terrorist leader’s death a focal point in Obama’s re-election campaign, painting Obama as a decisive leader who took down America’s greatest mortal enemy.

You mean he cancelled the staged show several times before the Hollywood lights came on for the spin doctoring, false flag OP, election bolstering 'tough on terror' BS Obama-rama show. I've seen a compendium of 20 different pictures of Bin Laden taken from mainstream media televised shows, all in a row. They were similar, but each was a different person. Put a fake beard and Islamic Kaffiyeh on G. W. Bush and he could be spun to be Bin Laden. BIN LADEN DIED OF NATURAL CAUSES IN 2001 (or sooner), and presented the perfect plan to 'kill' an already dead man. Only a clone could be classified to have been 'Laden' killed again. Easy pickings for the White House boob, and no risk. The real Bin Laden was spotted (remember, the most wanted man on the planet)in the late 90's crossing the Rainbow Bridge from Canada, unmolested. When the authorities were questioned why they did not arrest him, they said 'they could not, he was an American.' Good news for us ordinary mortals, these power crazed bimbo's are far less competent than their predecessors, seemingly using duct tape to quickly patch together their next pile of horsey do-do. They are much easier to catch than they used to be. TYJM frj

Amen, anonymous.

Bin-Laden died of Marfans disease in '01. He was put on ice for a day when they could market an 'event'.

Miniter is a poser. The book is a sham. White House shill. Look left, go right, your shoes untied.

Are the posters who post to this site so desperate to hate Obama that they will post false news stories.

It has been all but confirmed with the release of an official death certificate that Osama died shortly after the 9-11 "terrorist attacks." That begs the question as to how you actually perform a kill raid on a dead man and what is the big deal of calling off a raid to kill a man that has already been dead for over a decade.

If you want to hate on Obama please use relevant examples like predator drone strikes that violate international war and the Geneva conventions, the use of civilian contractors and CIA black op rendition bases outside the rule of law, indefinite detention, arms treaties to nullify the 2nd amendment, the court case today that showed political interference in the prosecution of the new black panthers over voter suppression & violations of the voting rights act of 1965, executive orders & presidential directives-memos that create/modify regulations for the alphabet agencies in effect legislating from he executive branch circumventing the legislative branch, operation fast & furious arming mexican drug cartels, arming Libyan and syrian al-qaeda terrorists, etc..fake-forged birth certificate, social security NUMBERS, selective service card etc...

These are real stories that are grounded in fact and logic and reason AND constitute a valid opposition to Obama as a man who simultaneously has sworn and oath/signed a contract to uphold the law WHILE doing everything in his power to undermine the rule of law.

Please save some credibility and face and stop posting this junk.

You see, this is why I want to get the fudge off this planet. This is more than unbelievable, this is a joke that is just not funny, at all!!! Im sick and tired of people who lie, then lie to cover up that lie, and then lie some more. Im not perfect, but this is beyond insane. I cant stand listening to people who know didly squat about whats the truth, and whats a lie. I do my homework, look at the facts that they try to cover up, and I read between the lines. I cant take this anymore, I have no more patience for freakin imbeciles who let brainwashed zombies spew their garbage and say, "Oh yeah, it happened!!" Even with no proof, they blindly and unquestioningly accept it and go "Dont you dare question what other people say, bad things might happen to you!!! Duhhh"......Thats what cowards and losers do, they attack anyone with threats, or hire some thug with no vested interest in defending the stupidity to murder the ones who dare to say "I dont believe you!" I mean, when is it gonna end?

How about his buddies in the muslim brotherhood which isnt muslim and isnt a religious group at all? They are Jesuits, working for the secret black pope who hides in the shadows, too much of a coward to come out and do anything himself. I gotta say, this is looking way too much like the Satanic-ridden Catholic Church has no desire to clean itself up, or stop with the complete take-over of everything....I mean, isnt that what Jesuits do? I read their oath, its basically, by deception, we shall make war. Hmmmm?
