Opis

The author and his editor from The Mossback Review went to Las Vegas in June 2012 to cover the off-year Conference for Young Conservatives. The conference was a bust, but while in Vegas they happened upon a much larger story, one that had the potential to bring down a presidency. We all know that fiction titled "Operation Neptune Spear." That's the story of how SEAL Team Six rode top secret stealth helicopters deep into Pakistani airspace to the city of Abbottabad, where they assaulted a walled compound and killed Osama bin Laden. If the details of that mission seemed too fantastical to be true, that's because they weren't true. But those in power at both ends of the political spectrum had good reason to go along with the official story. The author and his editor, however, refused to be complicit. This is the story of how they picked up the trail on the Las Vegas Strip, fended off rivals from Fox News, outmaneuvered rogue agents of the CIA, and followed their leads to the outskirts of Khartoum. What they managed to uncover will leave you wondering if you can ever believe anything that comes out of Washington.
