A
good summary of the candidates to succeed Osama bin Laden (and thereby become an even more prominent target than they already are) by Bill Roggio over at The Long War Journal.
Fortunately, in America's corner, we have
Admiral William McRaven. Although the Washington Post doesn't mention it for some reason, Adm. McRaven also commanded Task Force 121 when it captured Saddam Hussein in December 2003. Not a bad resume:
- Killed Osama bin Laden
- Captured Saddam Hussein
As a March 2004
Newsweek profile of McRaven noted:
“Bill is reputed to be the smartest SEAL that ever lived,” says a former commander who knows McRaven well. “He is physically tough, compassionate and can drive a knife through your ribs in a nanosecond.”
