Matt Bissonnette - SEAL Team 6 Operator Exposes Admiral McRaven, Obama and Leon Panetta | SRS #252

Tavsif:

Matt Bissonnette is a former United States Navy SEAL known for his participation in the 2011 raid that killed Osama bin Laden, as detailed in his bestselling book No Easy Day: The Firsthand Account of the Mission That Killed Osama bin Laden (2012), written under the pen name Mark Owen. A DEVGRU (SEAL Team Six) operator, Bissonnette served multiple combat deployments and was one of the SEALs who entered bin Laden's compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. The book, which became a New York Times bestseller, sparked controversy for not being cleared by the Pentagon, leading to a 2016 settlement where Bissonnette agreed to forfeit royalties and speaking fees. He has since advised on the CBS series SEAL Team (2017–present) and maintains a low public profile. 00:00 Introduction and Welcome 00:56 New Book and Legal Battles 02:39 Background and Identity Reveal 10:39 Government Injustice and Media Exposure 20:26 Childhood in Alaska 34:06 First Deployment and Combat Experience 37:50 Screening and Training for SEAL Team Six 42:57 Joining Red Squadron and Delta Integration 59:48 First Kill and Reflections 01:03:52 Captain Phillips Rescue Operation 01:20:20 Planning and Executing the Bin Laden Raid 01:33:04 Aftermath and Political Encounters 01:52:03 Final Assault and Securing the Compound 02:09:23 Return Home and Leadership Reflection 02:21:02 Publishing the Book and Facing Legal Backlash 02:32:34 Interrogations, Accusations, and VA Struggles 03:05:04 Corruption and Malpractice Allegations 03:22:12 Tax Issues and Book Review Process 03:33:10 Reflections on SEAL Community and Future Plans 03:57:12 Final Thoughts and Recommendations
