Killer bin Laden "fur seal" is on the verge of poverty.
An employee of the main tactical unit of the Special Operations Forces of the United States Navy, who shot dead “terrorist No. 1”, gave an interview for the first time.
On the night of May 2, 2011, Osama bin Laden, an employee of the main tactical unit of the US Navy Special Operations Forces Special Forces, does not receive pension payments and medical assistance. Several foreign publications write about the history of this man who first gave interviews to reporters.
According to the "fur seal", during the operation, which was carried out in pitch darkness and using night vision devices, he personally shot bin Laden three bullets in the forehead. As the killer of “terrorist No. 1” explained, the fighters participating in the operation feared that explosives could be fixed on bin Laden’s body, so several headshots were fired - in order to have time to liquidate the head of al-Qaeda before he could lead detonator into action, writes The Sun. All three shots hit exactly on target. “This is the best I've ever done, or the worst I've ever seen,” the commando shared his memories.
However, after the most high-profile US special operation, as it turns out, some of its heroes did not receive any money or fame for this.
According to Esquire magazine, unlike US special forces veteran Matt Bissonnett, who wrote the book A Hard Day on the Destruction of “Number One Terrorist,” other fur seals are in no hurry to do the same or speak in public, as they may violate the internal rules of the elite unit, reports "Interfax".
The US authorities promised to pay a reward of $ 25 million for the destruction of Osama bin Laden, but most likely no one will receive it - neither the special forces, nor intelligence experts who helped them carry out this operation, the magazine writes.
“I am not a religious person, but I always felt that I had appeared on earth in order to do something special. After that operation, I realized why, ”the commando said in an interview with Esquire.
The magazine writes that the former commando is not trying to earn money from information about his work and is behaving cautiously.
“The body of the commando who destroyed bin Laden is covered in scars, his eyes are damaged, he suffers from arthritis and tendonitis. After serving several years in a special unit, the fur seal received nothing from the authorities: no pension, no medical assistance, no guarantees of protection for himself and his family, ”writes Esquire.
“After the events in Pakistan's Abbottabad, the commando taught the children to hide in the bathroom as in the safest place in the house in case of a threat to their life,” the magazine writes.
“Now I feel more threatened with a possible terrorist attack as an act of revenge than eight years ago,” the fur seal’s ex-wife told the magazine.
“The commando is officially divorced from his wife, which is a common occurrence for an elite unit. Marriage unions can be dangerous for relatives of fur seals. Since September 11, 2001, when the United States was attacked by terrorists, most commandos are far from their loved ones, writes Esquire.
Recall, according to the official version, Osama bin Laden was liquidated on May 2, 2011 during a special operation of the US Marine Corps in a residence in Abbottabad, 50 km from the capital of Pakistan, Islamabad
