Deeply disturbing questions raised by the SEAL disaster

There are  deeply  disturbing questions raised by  the the SEAL disaster. Even the SEALs very  existence is normally played down. Their use as a rapid reaction force inserted  by  a huge and vulnerable Chinook helicopter to help soldiers in midst  of battle was apparently almost unprecedented and extremely dangerous. Result: the loss of  nearly 10 percent of the Navy's most skilled fighters. SEAL's exhaustive training  and that of their pilots is  for covert operations. Confidentiality about the exact circumstances of combat death is an accepted part of their role. Why reveal publicly  that SEALs were involved at all, giving the Taliban a huge propaganda bonus and morale boost? Above all, why was it originally  revealed at all that SEAL Team Six  killed Bin Laden,  unnecessarily making them and their families potential targets? The nation and the grieving families deserve prompt  answers from the White House, whose credibility is at stake.
