Navy Seal Who Shot Bin Laden: New York Terrorist Followed ‘Every Guideline’ From ISIS

 

Former Navy Seal Rob O’Neill appeared on Fox & Friends Wednesday morning to react to the terror attack in lower Manhattan that killed eight people and injured a dozen more.

O’Neill, who claims to have been the Seal who killed Osama bin Laden, described how ISIS has been instructing its followers worldwide on “how to get a truck” to conduct one of these attacks.

“He followed every guideline,” O’Neill said. “Get a large vehicle, a flatbed truck or, you know, a lorry and then have an ISIS flag or depiction of ISIS flag in the vehicle. Have a note talking about ISIS, which he did. And then have a knife so once you run as many people over and forced to stop can you inflict as much damage until the police get there.

“And I think the reason he had two fake guns is so he could martyred,” O’Neill continued. “He didn’t have access to a suicide vest thank goodness.”

“It’s actually better for him to be alive, so we can find out what and why,” O’Neill said, before remarking that the attacker was not a lone-wolf.

29-year-old Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, an Uzbek immigrant, rented a truck and plowed through pedestrians on a bike path in Manhattan Tuesday afternoon. It was the deadliest terror attack in New York City since 9/11.

The suspect, who lived for some time in Patterson, New Jersey, was shot by authorities but survived, and was taken to Bellevue Hospital to be treated.
