Osama Bin Laden Killer Speaks: Navy SEAL Responsible for Shooting Al Qaeda Leader Finally Breaks His Silence, Has No Job or Insurance

The Navy SEAL responsible for the death of international terrorist leader Osama Bin Laden has finally broken his silence in an Esquire magazine article. The Center of Investigative Reporting's Phil Bronstein authors the article and tells how the SEAL is attempting to move on with his life "post-Osama." Part of that life is trying to get health insurance. The SEAL is remaining anonymous.

After the infamous 2011 nighttime raid on the Abbottabad compound ending in Osama's assassination, the SEAL has been left without support from the Navy or the United States government. He has no job and no security. After 16 years of service, the shooter left the Navy in September. Unfortunately, the minimum amount of service for pension and insurance eligibility is 20 years. After a failed attempt at becoming a video game consultant and no interest in security contracting, prospects were very limited. The Navy did offer him a witness protection-type position, which would mean his family would need to forget their former lives. For security reasons, the SEAL has remained anonymous. His family is trained in home-defense tactics and is considering all titles to the wife's name to get rid of paper trails connecting him to the family.

He might not have a job, security, or insurance, but he certainly has stories. Enjoy some choice excerpts from Bronstein's Esquire article below:

"This is hearsay, but I understand Obama said, Hell no. My guys are not surrendering. What do we need to rain hell on the Pakistani military? That was the one time in my life I was thinking, I am fucking voting for this guy. I had a picture of him lying in bed at night, thinking, You're not f------ with my guys. Like, he's thinking about us."

"On the third floor, there were two chicks yelling at us and the point man was yelling at them and he said to me, "Hey, we need to get moving. These bitches is getting truculent." I remember saying to myself, Truculent? Really? Love that word."

"And I remember as I watched him breathe out the last part of air, I thought: Is this the best thing I've ever done, or the worst thing I've ever done? This is real and that's him. Holy sh--."

"Everybody wanted him dead, but nobody wanted to say, Hey, you're going to kill this guy. It was just sort of understood that's what we wanted to do."
