The Double Tap was because the two remaining narcos climbed back on the boat and were in radio communication with other boats to recover the drugs putting them still in the fight.

Radio communication?

Exclusive: Survivors clinging to capsized boat didn’t radio for backup, admiral overseeing double-tap strike tells lawmakers​


The two men killed as they floated holding onto their capsized boat in a secondary strike against a suspected drug vessel in early September did not appear to have radio or other communications devices, the top military official overseeing the strike told lawmakers on Thursday, according to three sources with direct knowledge of his congressional briefings.

Shifting story​

The apparent abandonment of defense officials’ claims of a distress call as evidence of continued hostile intent — and thus, the validity of the secondary strike — is only the latest in a series of shifting accounts from the Trump administration since reports first emerged in the press over the weekend.

I wonder how many R's are thinking to themselves, "I should have questioned more loudly Hegseth's ability to do his job back when he potentially put US troops at risk out of sheer idiocy and a lack of experience."

I wonder how many laftists are incensed that Hegseth is actually doing more than sitting on his hands while leftists are whining about their terrorist heroes being a’splodid.

Ah, yes. The rabid left and their “sources with direct knowledge”.

Strange how theses “ sources” are unnamed, unknown and not produced.

Ah yes. There is a huge problem with leakers.

But also, all the leaks are fake.

The MAGA mind has no problem holding these two truths at once.

R's are circling the wagons.

Top military officers show lawmakers video of the Sept. 2 boat attack.​

Top military officers showed senior members of Congress a video of a Sept. 2 attack on a boat suspected of carrying drugs, including a follow-up strike that has been at the center of a growing debate over the Trump administration’s lethal mission.

But Republicans and Democrats left the closed-door meetings drawing starkly different conclusions after watching the unedited video of the initial strike on the boat on Sept. 2 and the follow-up that killed the survivors and sank the boat.

Senator Tom Cotton, Republican of Arkansas and the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, called the attack “highly lawful and lethal.” He said the video showed two survivors trying to flip a boat “loaded with drugs bound for the United States.” The follow-up missiles were “exactly what we’d expect our military commanders to do,” Mr. Cotton added.

Representative Rick Crawford, Republican of Arkansas and the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said there was “no doubt” in his mind that the Defense Department was carrying out the strikes in a “highly professional manner.”

But Democrats exited the briefings even more concerned about the campaign against drug smugglers that to date has included strikes on 21 vessels in the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific Ocean that have killed 83 people.

Representative Jim Himes, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee who for years has been read in on sensitive counterterrorism and covert operations, told reporters that the Sept. 2 attack video was “one of the most troubling things I’ve seen in my time in public service.”
“You have two individuals in clear distress without any means of locomotion with a destroyed vessel who were killed by the United States,” he said.

Imagine my surprise that R's and D's can look at the same video and reach different conclusions. It's a metaphor for the times we live in. Facts can not be agreed upon.

If what Cotton said is true then US law allows for the extra judicial killing of defenseless human beings.

Indeed, exactly what Barry Hussein and Joey B did during their tenure.
You forget there was no capture of Osama Bun Laden he was assassinated by Seal Team Six in Pakistan...
Barry also ordered the drone strike that killed Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen in 2011, making him the first U.S. citizen targeted and assassinated by a U.S. drone strike. His 16-year-old son, Abdulrahman al-Awlaki, was killed in a separate drone strike two weeks later.
Then Joey B., ordering the extrajudicial killing of Ayman al-Zawahiri, who was killed in a drone strike in Kabul on July 31, 2022. This action continued the practice of targeted killings by U.S. administrations.
Did Democrats question these double tap bombings/missiles? Obviously NO!.

That was quite the cowardly retreat. Not “leakers” little lady, but “sources” are unnamed, unknown and not produced.

Yours was a typically failed attempt to sidestep.

Not leakers? Okay, if you say so.

Like when Hegseth called the leaks of the second strike "fake".

I wrote a post about the radio story yesterday. It appears the video made that regime lie go away.

Video shows second strike hit before survivors could flip boat, lawmakers say​

Video footage of a U.S. military strike on alleged drug smugglers in the Caribbean Sea shows two people attempting to flip their capsized vessel as they were attacked again, multiple lawmakers said Thursday after speaking with the Navy admiral who oversaw the controversial mission.

The recording was shown during a day of closed-door meetings on Capitol Hill featuring Adm. Frank M. Bradley, the commander who oversaw the Sept. 2 operation, which entailed four strikes in all. The attack killed 11 people, including the two people who survived the first blast that hit their boat.

And yet that’s just what they did.

So is the Admiral falling on his sword hoping for a pardon?

“The video we saw today showed two shipwrecked individuals who had no means to move, much less pose an immediate threat, and yet they were killed by the United States military,” Himes said in a joint statement with Rep. Adam Smith (Washington), the House Armed Services Committee’s top Democrat. “Regardless of what one believes about the legal underpinnings of these operations, and we have been clear we believe they are highly questionable, this was wrong.”

GFY.
