i've gone back to re-watch this episode on multiple occasions.. this episode was eye-opening and fascinating, as Aaron provides vivid details of some of the most infamous moments of the GWOT from the perspective of a CIA officer assigned to work on intelligence related to the highest-valued targets in the war on terrorism.
You guys do a good job of asking the questions that elicit solid information, and you keep the conversation on track without getting all "there I was...". Nice work.
Thanks for a great episode, Aaron! Really was able to glean a lot of info from some of the things you couldn't discuss explicitly, which speaks to your skills as a communicator. And thank you as always to Jack and Dave!
Jack, can you go more indepth about when Obama set the "red line" which was crossed and the "boys" were about to go out. That would be really interesting to hear more about that.
I wish that Aaron could have been in studio with you guys smoking a cigar and having a couple drinks. Do you guys ever have people come in person to do interviews? I know its hard because of time restraints and schedule issues but I think having in person interviews is what you guys need to do. Having someone in person smoking a cigar and having a couple drinks while doing this interview would be amazing.
Don’t get me wrong, super proud of ya Aaron, I miss you bro and I wore Marks KIA bracelet for you till it was so thin it broke in half I just never knew that that would be the last time I would see you.

In reference to 49:20, Shawn Ryan's podcast with Bob "Ninja" Poras (Former GRS dude) discusses this incident as well in how security measures were changed at the last minute.
It drives me crazy Haqqani is still running around. We were shown videos of a VBIED he was responsible for sending the hit COP Sabari in Khost a few months before I got there in 2009. I believe 4 soldiers from the 82nd passed.
A major threat to the Chinese CCP Gov is its disastrous economic management. That will change very quickly and have a major impact. When the Chinese CCP was facing famines in the 50s and 60s the US supplied China with the technology to mass produce vital fertilizers. Oil is vital for those products and China is still highly dependent on imports by ship. China's economic boom was possible due to US support of free trade in the South China Sea. China is trying to destabilize the South China Sea which is vital. The Chinese movie industry is now independent of the US. Able to make modern special effects. Chinese students are still free to travel to top universities around the world. With unknown CCP control. Chiba continues to steal US and foreign technologies. With the CCP under threat it will be unpredictable. The CCPs top priority is itself. The Chinese people its likely victims when their economy collapses. And the USA will get the blame for CCP blunders. There is a major failing in Chinese real estate and banking. And huge military investment. To gain national support the CCP could occupy Taiwan. A long focus of CCP propaganda.
Aaron you’re awesome - great to hear the real story vs. Zero Dark Thirty. Btw, I also say “um” a lot.. not judging but wanted to mention it so you can improve. -Jordan
I love this podcast. Anyone interested in geopolitics or war history needs to listen to this. Fun fact: Al-Bawali’s wife wrote the book, “Osama bin Laden: Che Guevara of the East,” and later joined ISIS after Turkey knowingly let her cross into Syria (they do that a lot and should be kicked out of NATO). She wanted to put her “journalistic skills” to use for ISIS but quickly fucked around and found out they have no use for women for anything other than brides. She married and divorced 2 jihadis in quick succession and then disillusioned tried to cross back into Turkey where she was captured and is currently being held by the YPG.
Yeap I have no idea why we are still partner with turkey. They are really bad at supporting terrorist groups but not supporting them at the same time. Like the Kurds. They fight the Kurds. The Kurds fight ISIS. We wanted the Kurds to help fight ISIS in Syria too along with the other Kurds and sdf and all the other groups but we couldn't be seen to be working with them because of turkey 😂. The politics of all this stuff is krazy😂
I was pulling security at Salerno when the suicide bomber hit Chapman and killed those CIA agents, and I can honestly say they made a massive blunder. Under no circumstances do you compromise your security for someone that is coming from across the border and isn’t escorted by American or Coalition forces that have already cleared him. The very least you have them do is open or pull up their jacket or shirt to clear the waist and chest. We were all shocked when that happened because we heard the blast and got the word to get all the afghan workers off the base immediately. Then we got briefed on what happened and I remember standing there shaking my head at how complacency won again. Many others realized how right I was about being consistent with respect to searches and not compromising your security.
Awesome story and interview. Imagine though the discipline of OBL to walk outside and pace that small area everyday and not look up to the sky to avoid satellite detection!? 1:15:15 Bro that is mind blowin to me man.
Really interesting insights here. The suicide vest was putting BBs through steel beams at 100m away? Effective range of a claymore is 50m and casualty range is 100m. No wonder they got caught out.
Rigging the helo for demolition. If you liked this episode you might find interesting my most recent podcast: ruclips.net/video/FMvmJ8uyao8/видео.html My chat with General Jasper Jeffers-Leader, Disruptor, Soldier, and Special Operations Commander. General Jeffers has led and fought alongside some of the most elite military operators in the world. His thoughts on leadership, culture, technology and the future are insightful and inspirational. Enjoy.
Good cop bad cop during the interview process. I remember ICE playing that game with me. One agent is my friend, we could hang out, we are a lot alike. The other ICE agent is a #ick. He was intentionally trying to piss me off. Games in all aspects of life. Boot camp was a game, the entire time.
I would ask just two questions. Do you think Pakistan was playing with the Americans for the last twenty two years?After BinLaden was taken care of, should the USA of used this event to get out of Afghanistan?
The night after the raid was over and before it hit the news Leon Panetta called the FDNY Chief of Department and told him you can tell your men that we killed that son of a bitch for all of you guys. That man will forever have my respect for that. True Story
There was $9.5 million in extra funding for Z-Backscatter vans in 2005, one of many purchases from American Science and Engineering. It's a shame one wasn't sent to FOB Chapman. AS&E could only work so fast I'm sure.
@@shmooligan4550 When I first heard about the Z-backscatter vans I took a great interest in their use to fight terrorism. It wasn't hard to keep informed of purchases, like two for NYC for example. The tech is amazing, you just drive along a street and can get a sort of X-ray of parked cars. For FOB Chapman they could have left one sitting still, hidden inside a container at the entrance. There were multiple rounds of Z-backscatter purchases for years prior to Chapman. I'm amazed they didn't send a unit there.
pretty F'd up knowing how many people lost their lives over a ff. I think it's time, for us ALL to stand together over our minor differences, and have "eye's to see" so we can defeat the true enemy.
The next thing you'll have a guest that worked in NCIS telling us they never did anything underhanded. remember Intel agencies have six ways to Sunday to get back at you
I thought the fake doctor was the one who blew himself up and ive heard the Osama thing many different ways. One version says the Pakistanis knew he was there because they locked him up and he was actually in prison and couldn't leave. Like that compound was his prison or something. Then i heard that the way he was killed or the way they say he was killed was not what happened. Suppose to have been that the one person who shot him wasn't actually the only person to shoot him. That he was actually shot by every member of that team or atleast everyone that was in that room. Now when they tried to get him the first time and that one Afghanistan general that pulled everyone off yhe mountain did that to sneak him out but everyone didn't leave the mountain a group of our guys actually stayed and said they saw lantern light fsr away down in the valley and finally had a drone do a low fly by because it sounds thensamenas onenof the attack planes that low or something.well the light disappeared. And comento find out there a channel that they run a lot of ops through that all the parner nations has access to too and they believe that one of the partner nations read the op and gave him a head up. so one group decided to to stop running stuff though that system and to keep stuff more in house and close when dealing with ops. Thats just what i heaed because over the years the more people you listen to that was actually there for op or the people that helped plan the op get interviewe d andntell what happened from their perspective and sometime its gets pretty interesting when you find out all the details or missing details that later make something else make since 😊
Right?! I love these guys and watch all their videos! But the intro is from something you’d find in an 80s war movie haha. Or an early 2000’s amateur GWOT RUclips video, that you can’t hear the combat audio over mainstream hard rock from the time (like Bodies from drowning pool). I know the second is oddly specific, but if you know, you know. 😂😂🤘
Here a conspiracy theory: The OSS (forerunner of the CIA) was covertly invoved in the Nuremberg trials. They have introduced evidence (with affidavids) which today is to my understanding disputed by places like Yad Vashem in Israel, the US holocaustmuseum and a lot of mainstream historians. You can find ot about it when you compare the OSS membership list (opened to the public since 2008). if anyone is interested i can provide a example exactly where to find it or atleast some of it. Keep in mind they followed the following rules: International military tribunal charter Article 19. The Tribunal shall not be bound by technical rules of evidence. It shall adopt and apply to the greatest possible extent expeditious and nontechnical procedure, and shall admit any evidence which it deems to be of probative value. Article 20. The Tribunal may require to be informed of the nature of any evidence before it is entered so that it may rule upon the relevance thereof. Article 21. The Tribunal shall not require proof of facts of common knowledge but shall take judicial notice thereof. It shall also take judicial notice of official governmental documents and reports of the United Nations, including the acts and documents of the committees set up in the various allied countries for the investigation of war crimes, and of records and findings of military or other Tribunals of any of the United Nations. Why do i risk legal trouble and even jail for saying the same things that Yad Vashem in Israel, the USholocaustmuseum and leading jewish historians (Yehuda Bauer, Raul Hillberg and David Cesarani) and other mainstream historians (e.g. Jean-Claude Pressac) say/said, not even speaking about the revisionists because all of those mentioned say different things for which germans were tried, imprisoned and executed for and still risk jail over. Most recently (in the last few years) the USholocaustmuseum seems to have stated things about Majdanek that go against what the staff there says and what germans were tried, imprisoned and executed for. Older, simmilar cases, that now get ignored are Bergen Belsen, Dachau and Buchenwald. It has been admitted to torture to get confessions and to get stuff on others at this trials. If you are interested in this look at Bad Nenndorf, the London Cage and the Simpson Army Comission which investigated some of this claims and found them credible (Malmedy trial). This comission even made it in front of the US goverment but i don`t think anything came from it. Not even mentioning (also some jewish) revisionists.
Great listening. bUT… How many more years were the Russians going to sit by and watch over 8000 Russian speaking Ukrainians in the Donbass-women and children slaughtered from 2014 by their own Ukrainian forces. 2022 another 4500 civilians have perished by the Himars and other USA supplied weapons
Holy shit this was actually posted before the video started lmfao. FSB is literally bad at this. How many civis has Russia killed now? They're bombing apartment blocks and hospitals every single day. Donbass was filled with Wagner mercs and separatists. Is Ukraine just supposed to allow its sovereign territory to be taken over by militants and do nothing in response? Russia has never provided actual evidence of a mass slaughter of civilians yet evidence of Russia killing civs is undeniable. Mass rape, torture, and killing follows in the wake of the Russian military. It's a good thing they're so stupid otherwise Ukraine would be in far more danger. Mind you when Chechnya attempted to secede from Russia the Russians completely leveled Grozny. So, on one hand they think Ukraine can't fight to protect the sovereignty of its own territory but Russia will shell its own people for a month straight to keep them under their boot.
Great stories from amazingly brave men; but just one thing I’d suggest; stop interrupting them while they’re in the middle or just beginning one of the major stories they’re there to give a personal account of what happened and what they experienced. Seriously! Write down your questions or highlight a specific point and come back to it, either don’t drink because that doesn’t help you stay more silent while the guest with all the stories to tell is getting interrupted and cut off because you want to ask a question nobody else is wondering. Drives me nuts
Dude is super humble and articulate. Amazing career progression

Makes you really appreciate the dedication and expertise of all involved. We are lucky to have such amazing people serving the country.
You guys do a good job of asking the questions that elicit solid information, and you keep the conversation on track without getting all "there I was...". Nice work.
Ooopsss sometimes I let " there I am" statements slips in my short stories😅
Phenomenal stories from such a humble man I now consider to be one of the unsung heroes of the gwot
Thanks for a great episode, Aaron! Really was able to glean a lot of info from some of the things you couldn't discuss explicitly, which speaks to your skills as a communicator. And thank you as always to Jack and Dave!
One of my favorite episodes. Great job guys and thanks to Aaron for sharing his knowledge and experiences.
Just super. Wow amazing thank you. To all.
THEY FINALLY DID THE TIME THING, THANK YOUU
Please have Aaron on again. Great guest and has alot of information to share.
Great episode. Very laid back, very humble. I really enjoy the intelligence based episodes.
Super interesting. Thanks 👍. Totally enjoyed
Another great interview; well worth the wait. Thank you for sharing.
Jack, can you go more indepth about when Obama set the "red line" which was crossed and the "boys" were about to go out. That would be really interesting to hear more about that.
One day yeah.
Thank you for sharing

Love the interview and appreciate what Aaron has done. Also love that he sounds like a more lethal version of Michael Cera.
Best podcast ever
Top notch interview great guy very humble
The Intestinal fortitude here is tremendous

At the beginning of this podcast, he starts talking about a movie and cinderblocks. I’m pretty sure he’s talking about (old school with Will Ferrell)
I would ask just two questions. Do you think Pakistan was playing with the Americans for the last twenty two years?After BinLaden was taken care of, should the USA of used this event to get out of Afghanistan?

How many more years were the Russians going to sit by and watch over 8000 Russian speaking Ukrainians in the Donbass-women and children slaughtered from 2014 by their own Ukrainian forces.
2022 another 4500 civilians have perished by the Himars and other USA supplied weapons
Is Russia even real ?
damn, the FSB bot got here fast. Comment got posted an hour before the show started.
Jesus Christ 🤦🏻♂️ "Ukraine was asking to be invaded", what a deep thinker
Holy shit this was actually posted before the video started lmfao.
FSB is literally bad at this. How many civis has Russia killed now? They're bombing apartment blocks and hospitals every single day. Donbass was filled with Wagner mercs and separatists.

Russia has never provided actual evidence of a mass slaughter of civilians yet evidence of Russia killing civs is undeniable.
