Rob O’Neill, the former Navy SEAL who says he killed Osama bin Laden, did an interview Monday in which he slammed a controversial new investigative report on the incident.
O’Neill said the report, by veteran journalist Seymour Hersh, was “full of lies.”
“When I was first sent this article, I thought it was a joke,” he said on Fox News. “This thing is so ludicrous it’s almost an insult to the word ‘ludicrous.'”
Hersh wrote in a 10,000-word London Review of Books story published Sunday night that the death of bin Laden actually involved an extensive cover-up. Among other things, Hersh’s mostly anonymous sources said the US military worked in collaboration with the Pakistani government to kill bin Laden, whom Pakistan reportedly sheltered for years before the US found out.
The US and Pakistani governments both said Pakistan had no advance warning of the 2011 raid to kill the Al Qaed
