Well, the Marine that wrote the letter has surfaced and is sticking to his story.
Now what?
can you link some proof?
Just watched it.. the only redemption Jocko has is to go on Green Beret Chronicles with the boy's and see how these stories differ!!
@@bradd8383 agreed. I believe 100% of the claims made against the SEAL community. I think they need to hash it out. The fact that something like this is even coming out just shows that SOMETHING occured. It's hard to believe all of the claims made against them are all lies. Something happened. There's what GBC said, what the SEAL community says, and the truth.

So now you have a Navy Seal Chief, 2 Green Berets and a Marine XO coming out speaking against Jocko.
4 people. How crazy. 4 pieces of shit.
Yeah and none of them have book deals and energy drinks
@@usadevildog3103so they aren't doing it for clout
Why does nobody ask why he hasnt went through chris kyles book with all of his outrageous claims. Particularly in 2005 when hurricane Katrina happened, and kyle claims he smoked looters. When at that time, he should've been training up for this deployment?
As in he would have been in training at the time? The military sometimes allows active duty members to assist in disaster response, so it's not impossible he could have been there even though he didn't actually snipe people.
Alot of units went to help in 2005. My entire company went from Ft Hood. Its not weird that military members went to help.
Chris Kyle is a wanker.
I'm glad Jesse Ventura won his lawsuit.
@@buffhorses3632 7.62mm help? 🤣
Why isn't there any actual record of him being there?
The last 10 minutes sounds like the guy at the end of the movie trying to make an emotional appeal right before being found guilty and getting the electric chair.
Yeah it was hard to listen to because it’s so out of character for jocko. Where there’s smoke there’s fire
Good
Turned into a motivational speech and to live your life better lol
Just tell the truth man! You are harming the Teams, Navy and military. I am very familiar and retired USN. You just need to come clean. Practice what you preach and have some integrity…. Please! I was a HUMINT collector at the time in the AO. I am someone that hears all sides but know facts. I would really like to hear your response to some pointed questions even off line. Maybe you can change the point of reference I have on facts but that would take a lot. The more you dig in your heels on this the more people you hurt including multiple Gold Star Families. Eric Deming has nothing to gain but more to lose by telling the truth he has. He is doing what is right. I would really like some answers. No one loans serialized weapons out man. No unit wants to take on that burden. You are emotionally playing with folks by bringing up the angel flight. Like I said, please change my mind but that’s hard with the facts I know. What say you?
1. Navy Seal Chief
2. Green Beret
3. Green Beret
4. Marine XO
5.?
Jocko has a lot to answer to
How so? BTW what rank is the Marine?
And the GBs?
Infantry Marine here,1st BN 2nd MAR DIV Charlie Company, OIF 2003 Task Force Tarawa.
This is the response I was waiting for.
Is any one really surprised that Punisher Cartman has some Skeletons in his closet? Like seriously if your best defence is "murder is a crime, criminals are in jail and i'm not in jail" you got some screw lose
Hes guilty
You clearly don’t know crap about crap.
@@sapper3504 I know enough about crap to know when its coming out of your mouth or puts on a uniform
@@sapper3504 so tell us about youself?
It's par for the course. Not very surprising and I can't say it's "wrong."
Clouding the issue in the second half of this video when talking about how all ops had to be approved. Having approval for an op doesn’t signify what actually takes place on the op. It doesn’t implicitly explain away who is left dead on the floor of a target site, or why, when everyone withdraws. As a Marine sniper I will testify that there are so, so many times when NO ONE can see what a sniper can see through his optic, meaning that the person in the window 600m away can’t be seen by anyone but me. So, if I were to pull the trigger and call a hit, no one knows the status of the endexed target but me. It’s very easy to do things no one will know about in so many situations, even when you have other troops supporting your mission.
He keeps talking about people “in the know”. Yes, Jocko. A lot of us are in “the know” and not in the way you describe. We actually do know and we know how easy it was to do things that simply stayed in-house. You know it and so do we. For everything that someone happened to see indicators of things you guys are accused of, there is the iceberg of what isn’t seen. Facts, and true for any unit.
The things you do for free for people? You do it for free for marketing your brand. Naval Special Bookfare.
says the expert.
@@GodanHatamoto hey smart ass. To your point. It doesn’t take an expert. All it takes is someone who has actually been in combat to know the truth of these things. Not like you who is probably just a civilian fanboy acolyte who follows blindly out of cool guy worship.
Thanks for your insight, and professional opinion. It's obvious to many of us, and you articulated it perfectly for the general public.
Both Eric Deming (SEAL) and Jay Dorleus (Green Beret Chronicles) have said….”Come over and speak to us face-to-face on camera and clear the air”
How about it?
And give those two drama queens views and attention? Where is their actual evidence? All I heard was gossip and hearsey. Calling someone with a large social media following a war criminal and a conman without solid evidence is a great way to get yourself sued for slander.
@@gavbrescu911bro they just had the Marine XO who wrote the letter - that jocko said wasn’t real - on to interview him
@@gavbrescu911 ruclips.net/video/5A3fCoMTqmc/видео.htmlsi=qz2_woh0O5L6RPrC
This is the marine xo who wrote the letter - who isn’t one of the two drama queens you’re referring to
And that marine XO is mentioned in another video and sounds like he had some issues himself @matthewpyke5602
Jocko is scared to face the truth.
This is what happens when you put NAVY seals in a Marine and /or Army infantry battlespace. What in the world do seals know about taking and maintaining ground in a battlespace anyway? Everyone wants to dance but not everyone got on dancing shoes. Seals are like the Marine Infantry's little kid brother always wanting to get into the big fights. Let the Infantry guys do the dirty work and stick to the books and movies.
Fun fact. It wasn’t just Task Force Bruiser. We had SOF guys in an out of my AO on deployments. The only ones that never told us they were kicking around in our backyard was SEAL teams. I can count on more than one occasion of near blue on blue incidents because of it. I don’t care how super elite operator you are, A Brad crew can see you in the dark.
This is a very good point. Ego has no place in a serious business like war.
Let’s make it simple, go on their podcast, if you don’t, then we all know why.
Would Jay Leno go in a local cable access show to defend himself?
The subscriber count is that different.
And having Deming on jockopodcast wouldn't make sense, actually 434 and 434.5 don't make sense either...the podcast is about leadership, not jocko...so he should have put somewhere else.
But I get why he did.
So what would make the most sense...is they both go to a neutral party's podcast to discuss. But I doubt that would ever happen.
That said, if Deming is concerned and has evidence, he should publicly provide all evidence to DoD and to law enforcement, FBI, etc.
Or...he could be on some dude's podcast and just talk smack. I guess whatever angle he thinks will address what he rightly claims to care about...a bad seal culture.
I agree with his gripes, I just see him as being 110% ineffective.
Telling a bunch of youtube podcast viewers some gossip and having them argue about in a comments section...will NOT change seal culture.
@@renewed6250whoah! He not swing you way, Dally-bear…
@mrcountit I don't have my interpreter available right now.
I'm an old man and I have listened to Jocko.....
He is making a good living off his military service. Chris Kyle..... Write a book, make a movie. Marcus Lutrell. Admit to throwing his rifle and running. "I was a bitch, a coward" Marcus own words.
I saw the Robert Chapman footage and saw his trained SEAL brothers run away and leave him on the hill.
I have no respect for these SEAL's and I believe Jocko is hated by many in the military.
God will judge Jocko.
The only thing i got out of all this is the value of the silent professional.
Exactly. These guys want to yell and boast and make money off their service. A quiet Proffesion does not. The type of personality that has a podcast like this, is the type that would lie, cheat steal and do anything to get ahead.
Lol nothing silent about Jocko
Silent professionals only benefit the military and thw crimes they are covering up
I think it's fair to talk about things that happened almost two decades ago, at that point it's history and we should be studying it and reflecting on it.
Well put. No names come to mind that were Delta, SF, Ranger, CCT, that have huge podcasts and are trying to clear their names of war crimes.
The problem is there are rangers reporting the same thing. It’s multiple people speaking out. Why would they all falsely target jocko for? Doesn’t make sense to do.
I've seen Rangers, Green Berets, other big dog Seals, Marines etc. Green Beret Chronicles covers it several times and his newest episode has 4 guys from different branches speak on it.
Yup
@@Kharmatos13 I’m sure that perception plays a roll though. Jocko’s definitely differs from the current consensus.
As if its impossible for them to coordinate their stories beforehand. It does make it seem less likely, but in the world we live in, unfortunately wouldn't surprise me. Everyone wants clout
@@chickenfishhybrid44That makes absolutely no sense at all
Jocko allowed Chris Kyle to operate recklessly on the battlefield.
Joko is gonna delete your comment like he always does
Good
@@jayr3381 Yeah...the extreme ownership...of the comments section xD
Jocko is, at best, covering Kyle's crimes. At worst he's a serial war criminal.
Prove your claim don't just sling BS. Your comments are slander.
When fact checking, should I ref the same sources used for Lone Survivor or American Sniper? Time to put the extreme in extreme ownership my friend
EXTREMELY EXTREME.....I got a lump in my throat and my heart skipped when Eric said Marcus ran and when picked up had almost all his Ammo...Predator feed and Green Beret testimony.....Damn
@@richardclary6267 exactly man. Someone reposted the interview Luttrell did with Anderson Cooper when he calls himself a coward bc he put his gun down and covered his ears when his friend was dying calling him for help. Disgusting.
There’s so many allegations against the seals. It’s hard to be supportive especially with all the internal drama that has gone on within the teams over the years.
ruclips.net/video/5A3fCoMTqmc/видео.html
@@richardclary6267 ive heard this before too. Multiple people came out about Luttrell's ammo. Major failure Op Redwings was.
"It couldn't happen", "it was not possible" -- isn't worth anything as defence. In fact, it is exactly what Ted Bundy said in his own defence. Just check it.
Brah, teams regularly failed to coordinate with battle space owners in Mosul 2007-2009, and it caused all kinds of shit for us as the battle space owners. This line that not coordinating with other units was death shit is disingenuous. Rangers, MIT, and PIT teams as well as yes SEALs were all guilty of it, as were conventional ground forces.
At least that’s the Iraq I remember.
The SEALS think Jocko is a toolbag for many more reasons than what you listed above. Lots of them coming out now. In Afghanistan 2010-2011 I didn't have any major issues with de-conflicting fires, coordinating with adjacent units, communicating with each other with up to battalion size attacks.
My buddy Johnny roberge was killed up there during that time.
It was the same for my unit in Ramadi in 07-08.
Baghdad 2007-2009 we had Brit SAS and Seals in our battle space multiple times wothout telling us, one time almost resulting in blue on blue. Any infantrymen who were in Iraq are now MORE suspicious of Jocko because we know that whole line of shit he’s talking with regards to battle space owners is absolutely untrue. They had a reputation for doing that shit.
@@operatorblack Yup.
>killed a civilian
good
>the locals are killing marines in retaliation?
good
>everyone in the AO my team operated in called us reckless assholes
good
>chris kyle added his civilian casualties to his "confirmed kill" count
good
Dude, Jocko. How many people do you expect us to believe are lying about you?
How about you do your research. This Eric dude is lying, and so is the fake letter. We know this because the number of deaths is public information. The letter says 37 Marines died because of Jocko's team. Only 17 died, and all 17 have full investigations. Iraq war was the most scrutinized war in human history. Every death on either side is investigated.
Zero mention of Chris Kyle is a red flag
This new green beret chronicles video has two marines on it. They are saying they saw task force unit bruiser kill civilians. One of them was an officer.
Neither one of them said they saw it. They said they were told that’s what happened.
@@lasteem1well you are a confirmed liar as Graham one of the marines clearly said he saw people being shot that shouldn't from the gov center

Brother from 1st Battalion 3rd Marines here…. And I know for a fact… whenever the SEALS were around,,,, they brought that same essence as a Cobra… I just felt better and more protected when they were around… thank you!
I was gonna say, just ask the Marines who were there. Semper Fi.

Extreme ownership of bullshit and lies? Like the infamous pathological liar Kyle vs. Ventura.
Kyle is not a saint. But so is Ventura. A full on closet Liberal who talks shit all the time about the military and also supports Colin Kaepernick.
Kyle vs Hurricane Katrina looters
@@gleb3841 Kyle vs. His official military silver star decoration count
The fact is a lot people are fucking pissed off about the truth coming out regarding Roberts Ridge, Operation Redwings and many other SEAL related cover ups. A small entity of SEAL leadership tried to completely distort and manipulate the truth on what happened in all these instances and it has deeply damaged the reputation of NSW. Now do I think Jocko is relevant to those events? No, and nor is he obligated to speak on them. Jocko can only speak to where he was in the specific time frame of the GWOT and the people he commanded in Iraq. A lot of people are trying to put all the NSW BS that has transpired over 20 years and putting it at the feet of Jocko because of his success as a public figure and his platform.
The only thing for me that I’m really not sure about is Chris Kyle. That dude flat out “bragged” about punching Jessie Ventura in the face and sniping looters from a sports stadium during the Katrina disaster. Among other things, that Antihero podcast and Green Beret Chronicles was not the 1st time Kyle has been accused of lying, exaggerating, beating his wife and killing unarmed civilians. IMO, Jocko absolutely is obligated to talk about him and the allegations. Jocko was not only in charge of Chris Kyle in TF Bruiser, but a lot of Jockos original fame came from that past relationship and the success of American Sniper. In that separate case, I would like to get some context from Jocko.
Chris Kyle's numbers are so outrageous (even compared to people doing the same job at the same time in the same place), mathematically he was either a liar everyone decided to profit from or his leaders decided to look the other way knowing fully he was a psycho willing to target anybody for any reason, including his own satisfaction.
If you have any question on Chris’s character then look at what he did after he got out. He helped physically and mentally wounded vets. Thats not the actions of someone who cared for nothing but his legacy and fortune. If any of this was true, Jocko and everyone else would still be in prison. Those on the different side of politics no way would not bite on that story for over 20 years because they goodness in their heart and didnt want to tarnish this country or its troops reputation? Yeah the truth is right there plain as day..
@@maverick744 .. And Chris was literally murdered by a “physically and mentally” wounded veteran. What’s your point? All disabled veterans are Saints and Chris is automatically exempt from any past wrong doing because he helped former vets?
I’m not saying Chris is guilty btw, just asking questions.
Chris Kyle is a certified liar!!
Well said in your original comment. I agree.
Whoever wrote the letter should be brought onto the podcast and given time to present their information and any evidence they have for whatever they are saying.

@@ClaimClam The Marine India Company XO is now online 20 minutes, face to face with the camera, after this Jocko podcast with two other marines in leadership positions and they are all backing up his original letter with nothing to gain.
He never addresses the source for most of these recent accusations. They come from a fellow SEAL who WAS there, but he’s acting like they’re coming from the peanut gallery.
Yap and I can tell you as a service member and afgan veteran unless you were wanting to shit on any chance of you possibly ever being even seen out in public without being ridiculed and ashamed you would never ever ever make up those types of accusations. No way no how
He addressed one inaccurate detail and used that to try to discredit the entire argument.
Now also coming from a Marine Commanding officer who was there
Which SEAL was there? Deming?
@@user-fm1kd6mi8n Yep, according to him. By “there”, I mean in senior noncom leadership of the SEALs.
Someone didn't like your RFK podcast...
Bet most of the slander makes it to big media, and none of the response does
BINGO!
@@t-spark nah, false allegations of this caliber are absolutely heinous and wouldn’t deserve the light of day with the media, they should know better at least than to try and blast something such as this knowing full well the repercussions they may face when they find out they were being mislead. At most, they’d be able to inform the public that allegations were made. Jocko is big enough and has earned enough respect with the public as a well known patriot for anyone to go along with this bs. And people in the comments who are trying to make him respond is so disgusting, it’s crazy to me. If something like this had the slightest possibility of being true, it’d be an absolute firestorm against him and more people saying the same thing, with actual hardcore evidence and investigations, but you heard Jocko. He takes extreme ownership, hence, there’s nothing for him to own up to. Personally, I think a defamation lawsuit against whoever is pushing this would be in order. No one should be able whimsically make claims such as these against a man of his stature.
I'm voting RFK Jr. I'm an Airborne infantryman with a CIB.

@@rhysmartin210 Other than the fact that he is dying of Cancer, nothing. I got mad because this dude compared Jocko to him. One is a hero, the other is a murderer.
The fact that he’s addressing this tells me everything. He’s getting out in front of those investigations but he knows he’s protected. They should smack him around a little bit…. Take his little podcast, junk supplement line, etc
I been reading and seeing reports about this. I’m been Waiting on this Response. My little brother served in Ramadi in 06 in the Army and we have spoke about this. It infuriates him that these accusations are being made Especially when there are some not here today to defend themselves against these heinous Attacks. I would like to personally thank Task Force Bruiser for bringing my Brother home. He told me that his unit came under heavy fire and had it not been for you and your team he and his unit would have suffered heavy casualties and that he might not of made it Home from that Deployment. Thank you so much Task Force Bruiser Rest in Peace to your Fallen Brethren! May they’re Memory forever Live on in your hearts and minds As well as the Patriotic Americans that honor them to this Day

Was there a hand receipt signed for those MP5s that you claimed to have "loaned" to that Marine in 3/8? Wouldn't serialized equipment loaned to another unit require a hand receipt?
Plus didn't 3/8 have their own supressors?
Who witnessed you loaning out those MP5s?
Finally why don't you, Jay and Eric sit down and discuss this face to face? Or the Marine who wrote that letter? He has come forward.....
This!
This dude is a coward
I'm not sure what was said about the MP5. I'm just learning about this controversy. I was a Corpsman with 2/4 and in Ramadi for the surge in 2006-2007. We worked with a SEAL unit while clearing the katana district. We borrowed an MP5 from the Marines we were working with to use on dogs because the insurgents would use them to locate our movement.
No ones gonna have an ECR card on hand from Ramadi in 2006
I find it so ironic that the Navy Seal insignia (The "Trident") displays an eagle with a bowed head to show humility. To receive a trident is to enter into a contract of sorts. With the understanding that using your military experience to make a profit is not only despicable, but also runs a massiverisk to those still doing the job by revealing SOPs TTPs and general information pertaining to duty. Thes guys tarnish the reputation and should not be trusted.
Well said!
First we had the 20v1 Kendrick and Drake beef now we have the 20v1 Navy SEAL beef. I feel like we're being psyopped. Feels a little too ridiculous to be real.
Let’s keep it house, but let’s write books about everything… It would be nice to hear him just talk as opposed to reading it.
The easiest way to clear this up is for NCIS or FBI to investigate the whole deployment and let the chips land where they land, I saw they guys interview, and he sounded very credible. As a former SNCO (E9), if what the E8 said is true, the entire SEAL command should be worried along with yourself and others on TF Bruiser.
I'm hoping it isn't true because I like what you're putting out.
I recall the FBI being in Iraq investigating Marines, due to accusations of alleged murder squads running around the city … after months of investigation the FBI found that people die in war, and that no one is able to just move around the battlefield as they wish … many of the accusations being made would have to have been investigated … NCIS would have gotten notice if formal complaints were made
"Easiest way," come on now NCO, you forget how the military bureaucracy works? They won't admit to anything that could make them look bad unless someone has the actual video and its gone viral. I remember I got tasked with a 15-6 investigation over our service members burning some Korans. Yep, they burned them, I even included burned pages in my report. At the weekly briefing I watched, in awe, as the Colonel flatly told the General that "after a through investigation, I can assure you that no Korans were burned." That was paper, war crimes? No way any brass would touch this with a 32' pole.
I don’t think I’d trust ncis or fbi after what I’ve seen/heard come from both over these past few years.
You should hope for the truth and nothing less. Leave the bias
Jocko literally didn't answer anything here. He doesn't understand what "Extreme Ownership" means. I served alongside SEALs and others in various capacities and it was well-known back in the early 2000s that they were running and gunning and we had a hell of a time coordinating and debriefing with them on anything. This extends back to the incident with the Rangers and Pat Tillman.
Any Muppet in a closet can form strong opinions about the SEALs simply from reading about many of their more well-known and infamous operations.
What I don't like about his response here:
1. He is using the defense of "everything was documented"
2. The defense of "we had strict ROE"
3. The defense of "we communicated everything"
4. The defense of "it was chaos"
5. The defense of "we had to have x, y, z approvals"
6. The defense of "we had guys getting injured"
7. The defense of "my fallen brothers would not want me to squander this gift"
I try to play the fence on these things but he is not addressing the accusations head-on/directly. He is indirectly circling around the accusations gathering up what indirect and supportive evidence he can which is fine, but still doesn't provide direct evidence to null/void the accusations against him.
One of the glaring factors I see him avoiding discussing is Chris Kyle among others.
Duty and Dishonor: The Marine's Revelation of Task Unit Bruiser (Green Beret Chronicles) ... just for context
only way to settle this is to go online and meet with Deming and the other accusers. BTW, Cmdr Price did not kill himself
Why aren’t you relaxing and sitting back and smoking a cigar and being casual? Maybe it’s because you’re on the defensive because maybe you know something that you’re not telling us
Jocko. You need to lawyer up. In time this will be officially investigated....your words will be used accordingly.
Eric Demming should be a guest to discuss and clarify face to face.
More and more ex service members with 20+ years coming out saying the same thing. Its hard to think its just jealousy.
What does Eric Deming and the Marines on Green Beret Chronicles have to gain from calling out a "Brand" Seal with thousands of fan boys?
Invite them onto the podcast so its face to face. It can be your first colored episode. Quite symbolic actually.
It's never a war crime the first time.
It appears that "LYING" seems to make more money....IE: O'Neil , Luttrell and I will leave the dead sniper out of this !
I wasn't there so not sure what to believe. The question that I have is "Why would this information be put out on the web if Task Unit Bruiser was all operating like hero's". If this is all about Player Hating someone is putting their nuts on the line. It is tough when you create a business and leadership company based upon a narrative that is in question. I hope that everything Jocko states is correct but damn it this leaves me with questions.
good for you, questioning is perfectly fine. We weren’t there, so its silly for anyone in these comments to fully take one side or the other.
@@josholdham1033many people were there though, and the actions of Kyle were pretty well documented
@@ashackatak normally I would agree, but SEALs and “well documented” is kind of a non sequitur these days. The command has swept a lot under the rug to protect the brand
If this leaves anyone with questions then try to remember that Jocko is very conservative.. if any of that BS had a smidge of truth it is not only safe to say he would have been sentenced to Life in prison.. the media would still be running those stories.. I don’t believe any of those lies that is clear to what the intent is..all these horrific accusations of war crimes and loose cannons were committed by highly decorated EXTREMELY SUCCESSFUL Seals whose accolades are known all over the world.. must be a coincidence..I do find these accusations are laughable at best..
At this point the whole damn thing is impossible to make what’s true and what isn’t. The only constant in all this is there is definitely a problem with seals staying quiet to any extent
Jocko is covered in innocent blood. His own mouth got him into this mess he’s in. 2024 year of the truth
Personally I have no problem with seals talking about things that happened almost two decades ago, at that point it's history and we should be studying it and reflecting on it.
The fact that you admit that you loan out weapons is evidence that you practice what you want to practice. no unit gives weapons to another without an extreme paper trail arrow documents, perhaps chain of custody putting it in someone’s green book
Where is the proof brother?
So you want us to believe that a four-star general got a brief directly from you and skipped everyone else above you or were you just a small portion of a larger brief. A more accurate picture on your brief. On the one hand, you say you were the man briefing and doing everything and on the other hand, you said you had to take orders from other people potentially even a lieutenant. Smells like old chow food.
The marine who wrote the letter is on a new GB chronicles podcast. You jocko are here to defend yourself so do so. Go on the podcast with jay,eric and the marine. Or refund everyone who paid for your book extreme ownership
Naaa you are wrong. He should make the 2nd version of the book with amended title: "Extreme ownership of bullshit".
@marcingrabkowski1054 I'm not wrong. Where am I wrong? Have you watched the podcast with the marine? Nothing would clear this up more than all the people involved sitting down and talking.

men with true leadership quality will own to their mistakes.
I was a Corpmsan with 2/4 during the surge in 2006-07 in Ramadi. Nobody wanted to work with the SEALs because they were cowboys. My CO used them when we were clearing the Katana district because he was prior Recon. My experience with the SEALs was they came into a house we were using, stood post, shot whoever and left. After that we got hit. Was it their fault? Maybe. They didnt have positive ID on the people they shot. Their ROE's were way different than ours. They did whatever they wanted. It wasn't a bad thing having them around, in my opinion. But they definitely were cowboys.
Any proof of these claims?
Glad you addressed this directly. I’m excited to listen to it
All I heard in this podcast is a War Criminal trying to justify his actions.
BTW, I was in the military, and believe 100% Jaco and his crew killed innocents.
It's not the proto-internet pro-war 00's where you can just sweep everything under the rug. One of many incidents and one of many grifters standing on an unjust war and unwarranted loss of life.
It’s all about the money. It’s interesting how the Kyle story, the Who killed Bin Ladin Story, the Luttrell Story, the Jocko story, the Tillman initial coverup story all changed or are changing now. Is anyone listening to these people? Be careful listening to the “load people”. *Where are the quiet professionals? - that’s correct.
And Kyle RIP thought he can take on Ventura lying he punched him at a bar. You were friends with this Kyle guy too?
You know its serious when Jocko starts quoting Shakespeare.
Here's how the grift works:
1.) Find and target high profile individuals.
2.) Make a RUclips video with wild accusations about that individual. Bonus points if you use clickbaity words in the title like "THE TRUTH", "the REAL story" or "EXPOSED".
3.) Deploy a few minions or use a burner account to go to other channels and direct people to your video.
4.) On your video, people will watch out of curiosity, click "like" or "dislike" and comment, which drives up engagement.
5.) Sit back and watch the money roll in from the clicks and ad revenue.
6.) Repeat steps 1-5 with a different target.
I'm quite familiar with this process because I've been on the receiving end of it. If you see one of these videos pop up, don't click, don't watch and don't engage. These people are trying to prey off of the success of others and are running a deeply cynical scam.
Appreciate the work that you do, Jocko.
>Chris Kyle lied about his military awards. When Jocko was questioned about it Jocko stated that Kyle deserved more recognition than he got. Jocko's approval of Kyle's stolen valor was recorded in the article "American Sniper Distorted Record Documents Show"
>Kyle was proven a liar in court by Jesse Ventura
>Luttrell's ambush was recorded on by Ahmad Shah's men. His story was proven completely false by the video record.
>Luttrell's story was further proved false by an Army Ranger named Nicholas Moore who was on the combat search and rescue mission that recovered the Red Wings Seals bodies. Luttrell was found with all his ammo and he was ambulatory.
>Rob O'Neill lied about killing Bin Laden. He was called about by another SEAL on the Bin Laden mission
You people DO NOT CARE ABOUT TRUTH. You care about MONEY!
@@LongFatJohnstonLET FREEDOM RING!!! History underground trying to ride jockos jock strap. You aligned with the wrong grifter traveler.
@@LongFatJohnstonthank you very much for bringing up the article. In the interest of a willingness to hear all sides, I went ahead and looked it up. Jocko's answer strikes me more as a non-answer than approval for the lying, and an attempt to avoid that minefield.
@@LongFatJohnston
Your channel name says it all. What creates people like you, McDonalds? I’m pretty sure it’s beer and McDonalds
XD
People like you are a joke. You already have your mind made up that you hate American soldiers and just look for any conspiracy to try and justify yourself. You literally claim that a Taliban propaganda video is more trustworthy than the fact checked truth. So you are either one of them or wish to be. Sad human being.
It’s a sad day when you meet your heroes.
2k likes? It must hurt his ego to realize most people didnt like or believe him to begin with.
I just spent one min searching RUclips and found multiple other military personnel including other seal members make the same claims so it’s definitely not just one marine…
Did you also find the Marines defending him? Or the other SEALS defending him? Maybe take more than a minute to get some additional info🤷
Any proof of these claims? Names? Proof of connection to Jocko?
Jocko is dancing
Everyone knows it was very, very easy to commit war crimes. It was before the age of social media and smart phones. It was chaotic and everyone was in over their heads. And American Units 100% smoked a LOT of civilians down there and nothing came of it. The cases that are being made public and followed up on are few and far between in the context of the overall mayhem that those units caused in Iraq and Afghanistan.
If the guy is lying sue him? Its that simple. This defamed you if its not true. Sue him and lets do a gathering of the actual facts. Thats what most public figures do when they are slandered
He can’t because the allegations are true
that would be very hard to do considering some of these ops are still classified. They would have to attempt to declassify them in order to file a lawsuit in civilian courts because right now its just "he said, she said".
@user-mr2do5vr1v that's not true at all. If you accuse someone of murdering people unjustly that Trumps any and all nonsense you are talking about. Even if they had to do a secret type of hearing to deal with it it needs to be dealt with one way or another.
@@OG-GHOST2 that is absolutely true what I said. Id love to see your sources
@@OG-GHOST2 "Classified information may need to be declassified or handled in a manner consistent with national security protocols to be admissible in court. This process would typically involve coordination between the litigants, their legal counsel, and relevant government agencies."
Ooohhhhhhhh, so the Marines were in your battlespace…never heard it that way, but you know more about what the XO saw than he does….Have Deming on your show, tenderly-tendinitis-one…🎉
Defending Kyle is laughable -Jocko knows it..
I'm a Marine and No Marine would accept serialized gear from another unit. Sounds like BS to me. Even shittier he's pinning it on a dead Marine "who isn't here to defend himself"
I want to thank Jocko for being forthcoming and clear on every point. I had a feeling after watching the videos mentioned that this was the kind of response that Jocko would put out. The accusing SEAL seemed to harbor a grudge and came off as disrespectful, and didn't even do research enough to get the name of Jocko's book on the subject right. Thank you, Jocko, for being leading by example in this situation and others, and always honoring your fallen brothers in word and deed. In this video, you did right by those brothers, and addressed the concerns affecting a wider audience that has benefited so much from your teachings over the years. This was a class act, sir, and appreciated. 🏴☠️
Oh yeah. The accuser called it extreme leadership. Ha! Then he kept stuttering , fumbling his words. and looking side to side. Saying stuff like “why would I lie”. Ah professional envy?
Huh? The seal doesn't hold a grudge against Jocko personally. Listen to the guy. He exposes a lot of seal secrets because he feels that HIS COMMUNITY has dropped the ball and the brand has forgotten and integrity and honor. Listen to him.
@@vsupreme9386 dropping the he ball is different that murdering women and children. Who is Jocko. Dennis quad on running man. lol
Is one million iraqi civilians died
but he did get people killed.
I really wonder if some of these allegations are starting because Jocko has started to get more vocal on political issues. As soon as good men get involved in politics you can be sure accusations and smears will come.
It would make sense.
Matthew Cole's book came out years ago. This isn't new. It's just people who don't read books are now seeing videos about it.
@@snowbear163I think you missed the point man, the videos weren’t out and just now happen to be surfacing. The book may have been written a while ago but the videos are new, they’re getting out because of a recent effort to stain Jockos good name. That’s the whole point of Jockos response, and this particular comment.
@@Lakota238 the allegations have been there for a long time. Matthew Cole has emails that Jocko wrote to people in his unit. They're in the book. The stuff about contracts and pay to play is new. But the stuff about his guys taking shots at anything that moves is documented.
shaiksy jakesy
Solid response!
Playing Mr toughguy warhero turns out to be a loose canon who endangered the lives of marines and other soldiers by reckless behavior.
This is a man who knows how to hold back, and only speak the truth to his enemies.
Jocko, with all due respect when I served with the Marines in 06, the buzz around was that your unit was reckless. Everybody knew it. The higher ups knew it. So saying that you were in charge, and there was no criminal investigation doesn’t mean that your unit didn’t kill civilians it was an open secret within the unit.
Cowboy that made everyone less safe. Especially Marines.
That may have been the buzz, but how was that substantiated?
@@MyNameIsJ3ffrey Well, it looks like some folks have come out and put their own reputation on the line to substantiate it. Now that both sides are out, I'm sure others will chime in.
@@MyNameIsJ3ffreytalk like that doesn't just come from nowhere. There are things you can't just speak up about in the military.
Same
Yeah, I get that sinking feeling that Jacko is lying here, like I get when most seals talk about shit. I hope Jacko can admit to being a POS and takes extreme ownership over his horrible leadership. GFC
You have smirched the name of good people who fought in Ramadi you and many others have made it difficult for those of us doing the right job for the right reasons at the right time.
so the dominoes begin to fall...
Hey Jocko, why don’t you man up and come clean? You sound like a politician trying to deflect.
Long on emotions and short on facts.
We stand by you and Task Unit Bruiser! As a fellow Ramadi Vet here, and no one has the right to spew that shame. Love you all.
✝️👊🇺🇲🙏

Ok captain hardass.
@@northsky5629He earned that, now take a seat you muppet
Jocko, remember in Musashi when Sasaki Kojiro put up all of those disparaging posters calling Musashi a coward around the town: the same exact thing is happening to you now, only with modern technology. Don’t give in, and know that we stand by you no matter what lies are fabricated to attack your character.
One of the difference is Jacko has to speak for the fallen who cannot speak for themselves
They're not calling his a coward but a liar
@@elpanchosancho2A liar cowers from truth and reality, does he not?
@J-gr4zn it's an allusion to some of his earlier podcasts about Masashi lol
@J-gr4zn It references a book. Miyamoto Musashi wrote The Book of Five Rings. Read it.
Don’t let any of this distract you from the fact we should have never been there in the first place.
ruclips.net/video/CtH3ACh5-ak/видео.html
Why would the executive officer from India Company third Battalion eighth Marines be any less credible than Jocko? He’s not. I called BS. Stick to the facts, Jocko.
The two guys from the last video's comment section are now mysteriously quiet....
Because they knew they were wrong from the beginning
@@thomassells2356 Makes you wonder if they are disappointed that Jocko did not maliciously harm others. Make you wonder who are the monsters.
I got flack from some guys for simply saying that I wish Jocko would address the shit people were saying bc I respected him and wanted to hear his side of it before I had an opinion about it. They said I was riding his dick and everyone knows jockos a murdered and all this other dumb shit so I’ve been looking for them on here and.. crickets…
Hahaha YEPPP
I imagine they're quiet because it's only been 3 days. Jocko was quieter for longer before responding.
Jesse the body Ventura said you lie. I 100% believe him. Sorry jocko YOU LIE.
Jocko is being attacked by the crabs in the bucket. People trying to get a minute of fame by attacking someone who has actually built something useful. It's so easy to vandalize what others have PAINstakingly built. He and I could not be more politically opposed, but his message is as timeless as Zeno and Aurelius, and as contemporarily relevant as General Hackworth. As a veteran, teacher, and human being, I consider him to be one of my greatest mentors.
As a civilian who has never served in the military, I am so grateful to Jocko and the lessons he has shared from his experiences. My life has improved greatly since I discovered his podcast and books years ago. Thank you Jocko for showing us and helping to keep us on the path. Your service to this nation and all who have served is greatly appreciated. You all represent the best of what this Country has to offer and are an inspiration.
Been looking forward to hearing your side. Thanks for posting a clear and concise response.
It’s great that Jocko put this out. What an elegant and intelligent way to bust rumors.
Did you expect anything else? lol
As if he’d come out and admit it all on his own podcast. 😂
He talked shit for hours and didn't say a thing.
He literally didn't cover any of the specific allegations that have recently been presented. Just went into one of his gruff voice fallen hero talks. Basically said don't question anything that happened to the task unit because brave men were lost. It has been well covered in the last 5 years, through books, interviews, and legal cases, how dark the SEAL teams and SF became during the GWOT. Jocko saying it isn't even possible for special forces to go off the rails is pretty crazy considering the amount of allegations and public cases that have involved the SEAL community and special forces.
@@burnheretic3950he isnt saying those things can’t happen. If they did happen, we would have an Eddie Gallagher all over again.
@@emmanuelvalles9601 your living in a dream world but whatever bud. All the best
I have a brother that was on green team- has nothing but good to say about Jocko and the time they served together
They went in on Robert’s ridge, Marcus and Chris, and Rob O niel
This is long, but I feel it needs to be said. I was actually in Iraq from April 06 to April 07 as a part of a USACAPOC unit responsible among other things, for COIN in Ramadi at the time. The task unit did have friction with 38 and with the CAT-A assigned to that AO. I have to admit that. The SEALs were looked at by some as a bit cavalier, not always team players, cowboyish. But war crimes? No. No way. Never heard a word uttered about that. And…I would have. I’m sure. There were definitely some skepticism on why they were running so many broad daylight missions. Particularly after Lee and Mansour were killed. Definitely some Monday morning QBing after those events. But war crimes? Hell no. And war crimes suspicions were always shared spontaneously through the ranks. So again, I would have heard about it. Particularly when again, I was reporting to a cell at MND-B who at the time was the division supporting civil military operations for that part of MNF-W. I regularly was in meetings with division general officers and often when topics like reported illegal action was brought up. Never heard a peep about this.
Now, was Kyle a liar about some of his exploits…unequivocally yes. And that went beyond Ramadi OIF 06-07. But I never once heard of war crimes in relation to him.
I agree this letter does not make sense as it is true investigations would have been oppressively present and the TU would have been stood down. That was not happening. I can tell you first hand.
Remember, TU Bruiser was a vanilla unit. They were operating with the full knowledge, and oversight of the battle space command. They aren’t a unit like CAG or The Command or even the Activity reporting to the executive branch directly. So to say they were somehow protected from above, just doesn’t make any sense. If anything, NCIS was on speed dial by 38s CO. Vanilla units are in the spotlight, not operating in obscurity.
Do I believe there is more to the story to how Kyle later died, absolutely. But I find it highly unlikely it was due to his previous knowledge and exploits in Ramadi half a decade previously.
I am not here to simp for anyone. I actually have some problems philosophically with the marketing of special operations and certain personalities that are without a doubt enriching themselves by embellishing their military prowess or worse, outright lying about where they were and what they did. I know for a fact these scumbags exist. I have no evidence or first or even second hand knowledge pointing to Jocko being of that ilk. And if you want me to name names of who I’m talking about, I am not afraid of doing so.
One final thought. Remember, certain things Jockos recent accusers are 💯 true in relation to several of those bad actors I’m describing. Red Wings and Luttrell’s true conduct vs the Lone Survivor account, Slab and Szymanski and Roberts Ridge screwing of Chapman detailed by people like Matt Cubbler do pass the smell test and more. Their comments in regards to TU Bruiser, do not. Just because Matt is likely right about some shit shows, does not mean he’s right about this.
A brother Marine wrote that letter we have always fought to keep our honor clean and the likes of you went into Iraq and made problems all because you wanted a ribbon and some type of future to be in history books but will you have this attached to you. Welcome to history and how it will view you.
My pops was in nam the whole time. He told me on 4th of July, that he loved it. He was a warrior. He always took the high road. But he was deadly serious. To think that he had stones thrown at him for his actions. At the end of the day he would have done anything to bring home Americans.
Well said and answered with the DIRECT approach.
Only after a week of being bombarded 🤣 and he even had to make a third video. Bro seals pocket book took a hit no doubt or was fixin to
@@noneofyourbiz6885or he doesn't live online or in the comment section like we do.
Well the new GB chronicles vid dropped.....just speak to eric and the marine who wrote the letter already.
