Once again you cherry pick to try to push some right wing fairy tale land version of what happened. Why is it you ignored the parts with "we" and "team"? Do they not fit your agenda?

Read the posts before you comment. The highlighted *I's* were a response to clarify that Mark Prince was clearly in error.

The only time he said "I" was when he said "Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan".
