Conspiracy Theory Alert!!!!
Ever since that crash it has prompted suspicion amongst conspiracy theorists. There are two main schools of thought that conspiracy theorists take. There are those who take the view that the raid on the Bin Laden compound never took part or that the raid did take part however the target was not Bin Laden and that this helicopter crash was staged to cover up their death. Then there is a second conspiracy theory promoted by Alex Jones, based on a dubious source that goes by the sexy pseudonym Colonel Sixx who claims that the crash was actually used as a cover up for Seals killed during Operation Neptune Spear when a stealth Blackhawk blew up to quote them.
Both of these conspiracies might seem plausible at first, especially if one has a limited knowledge of Seal Team Six. However both of these conspiracy theories can be quite easily debunked as both make the presumption that the Seals who were killed on the helicopter where the same ones who took part in the Bin Laden raid (assassination), this presumption is wrong.
The first mistake that people make when they entertain these conspiracies is that they ignorantly believe that Seal Team Six is like a soccer team. They assume that Seal Team Six, is made up X number of men and all other Seal Teams are made up the same number of men, they think that the 24 members of Seal Team Six is Seal Team Six.
This is utterly rubbish, Seal Team Six is not actually even a Seal team its real name is the United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group or DEVGRU if youre feeling lazy. It is essentially a separate unit form the US Navy SEALS, DEVGRU is considered a tier one Special Forces asset, the US Navy Seals are Tier two. Yes DEVGRU does recruit directly from the Navy Seals but you would be highly mistaken to assume that SEAL Team three for example has the same role and capabilities as Seal Team Six, DEVGRU. Furthermore DEVGRU is not a small team, its really quite large, how large exactly is classified but rumours I have read put it at between 300-500. It is structured into squadrons or teams, they are Red, Blue, Gold and Silver in addition to this there is also a Black Squadron for reconnaissance.
Now that very quick and dirty description of a very complex Special Forces unit might not be very in depth but its enough for us to start to debunk these conspiracies that the helicopter crash was staged in some way to cover up some part of the Bin Laden raid as its important to know who took part in what.
So to get to the point, during operation Neptune Spear the members of DEVGRU who took part where all handpicked form Red Squadron. There is one possible exception, in the book no easy day by Mark Owen he does describe how one member not form Red Squadron was picked because of his linguistic abilities however what squadron he was from is not made clear. In anycase according to the Navy Times.
With that in mind then one would expect the people who were killed on the helicopter crash came from the same Squadron, after all If they say came from Gold Squadron then it wouldnt make for a very good cover up. Well actually thats what happened all the guys on that Chinook came from Gold Squadron, again form the Navy Times.
To make this clear for you all, just encase you don't get the punch line
Red Squadron= Operation Neptune Spear May 1 2011
Gold Squadron = Chinook helicopter crash August 6 2011 (15 DEVGRU dead)
So different Squadrons different guys none of the men that took part in the raid to kill Bin Laden were on that helicopter.
In other words the government didnt kill those men on the helicopter to cover up anything relating to operation Neptune Spear because the guys on that helicopter had nothing to do with the raid that killed Bin Laden. If this isnt enough for you then I would also like to point out that there is no literature that supports the idea that any of the men on that helicopter took part in the Bin Laden raid and they all headed back to the states shortly afterwords so where not even in Afghanistan when the operation took part also although 22 members of NSW where on that helicopter only 15 were members of DEVGRU so why did they not kill the other 9 members who took part in the Bin Laden raid, not to mention the pilots of the helicopters, the CIA operatives and the support staff.
And finally ask yourself this, why would they wait 3 months to kill the guys and how did they prevent the rest of DEVGRU from speaking out and exposing this whole conspiracy?
