We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.

It looked liked the Delta guys drove the target vehicle themselves afterwards. I mean, they would probably want to detain everyone inside the vehicle, right?

If there was more than the driver in it I'm sure they moved him to the van as well. Most likely they took the target's vehicle away in order to do SSE on it in a safer location or to use for later operations if they decided to stay in country.

1:20 and they are already gone. It takes another minute for nearby bystanders to show up and go "WTF happened?"

Yep, his body starts getting all floppy and then droops after the guy with the gun pops out.

It looked like he was illuminated for a second and his arms had the strings cut. Whether he was lit by a muzzle flash or weaponlight, I don't know, but it looked like he died to me.

Considering Abu Anas al Libi is currently awaiting trial in New York I would consider him far from dead.

Don't mind me. We must protect rapists and misogynists from harm. If they're innocent they must not be named. Surely they'll never harm their sleeping, female patients. Watch me defend this in great detail. I am not a mens rights activist either.
Watching it again, it is definitely a slumped over, dead driver on the wheel. You can see the target veh lurches forward a bit, only to be stopped by the blocking car, then as the blocking car leaves it keeps driving forward in relation to how the blocking car pulls out.

Alright, I stand corrected. Gotta say being the US dude to drive that vehicle away would suck, not like they're gonna keep those clothes though.

I was wondering what it would be like to be so unimportant you get casually and incidentally smoked by people on the way to grabbing a more important person so he can go to an actual trial, but then I remembered I used to be junior enlisted.

I love how assassination's are morally wrong, but murdering the poo poo out of that car so one guy can stand trial isn't. My goal in life is to one day be too important that simply killing me will be viewed as unethical, no matter what hosed up poo poo I've done.

They didn't capture him because he's too important not to put on trial, they captured him to interrogate the everlasting gently caress out of him.

That would gently caress up the civilian trial.

quote:

2013 capture

Al-Libi was captured in Tripoli, Libya on 5 October 2013 by U.S. Army "Delta Force" operators, with the assistance of FBI agents and CIA officers. He was seized in a pre-dawn raid and removed from Libya. U.S. Navy SEALs conducted a simultaneous raid in Somalia targeting the alleged mastermind of the Westgate shopping mall attack in Kenya, possibly to avoid either action sending the other target into hiding.[19][20][21] A day after Al-Libi was captured, he was in military custody on the ship USS San Antonio in the Mediterranean Sea.[22] On 10 February 2014, a 30 seconds CCTV video showing U.S. commandos capturing al-Libi was published by the Washington Post.[23][24]
Court appearance

On October 15, 2013, al-Libi appeared in a Manhattan federal court and pleaded not guilty to terrorism charges

Note the dates. There might have been some interrogation but he hardly got the full black site treatment or anything close.

So is this the first time CAG/Delta operations have been caught on video?

There's a bunch of photos floating around from memoirs, the guys in hockey helmets w/ the 101st besieging Uday and Qusay, and I think one from Gothic Serpent.

This is the first video. Not that you can really see much.
