Navy SEAL Wakes Target Up By Putting His Suppressor In His Mouth
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 05. 2024
- This week’s Urban Valor episode features Navy SEAL veteran, Mike O’Dowd. Mike was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA. He was inspired to be a Navy SEAL after watching a documentary on the Discovery channel about them. When the 9/11 attack occurred, Mike felt an even greater calling to go fight for America and enlisted into the Navy to become a Navy SEAL.
In this episode, he talks about his combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan assigned to SEAL Team 7, doing covert operations to capture targets while they slept, and working with locals who were police allies by day and enemy by night. Mike leaves us with the hardship of lost brothers and the impact transitioning back into the civilian world had on his mental health.

Hearing somebody speak English in the middle of the night in Iraq had to be the scariest shit
Whole facts. Wouldn't want to hear Arabic in the burbs either. Worse yet would be as a Server Service Agent hearing Sleepy Joe get up to find the bathroom all over again!
🤣🤣never thought about that
We didn’t typically give initial commands in English… unless we had intel they spoke/understood the language
@@TrueFiendVP1funny how many guys I know who lived in the south their entire lives (and still do now) that can speak about 10-15 words of MSA (the abbrev for Modern Standard Arabic)/Pashto/Farsi lmao. It’s always a big shock when any of us are in public or trying to buy something and the staff in the store are speaking in one of those languages and the 1-3 bearded big southern American guys are able to interrupt and converse in their language.
@@REAPERDEFENSEI thought for a second you were going to say, “down south , I know many US citizens who can’t read.” Which is sadly truly. I like it’s like 40% of the south is illiterate.

Imagine how many guys set up people that were innocent just because they wanted money and didn’t like the person
And the thugs in uniforms were all too happy to oblige. Makes for “cool” stories.
This might be how some Africans were “selected” for the Atlantic slave trade.
Yeah, bc the military wastes money taking every piece of "advice" from locals in a country they're operating without investigating their veracity.
Just like imagining any type of situation, imagine that!
Most intel from locals is bad anyway. Sometimes they would just make shit up in order to get paid for whatever idiocy they came up with.
Dude probably never expected to woke up with a big black suppressor in his mouth 🤣
TAN SUPPRESSOR
And it probably never happened to begin with
It also never happened. No one leaves their door unlocked. 2011 Iraq was the pullout as well.
Why does it have to be black? Maybe it’s a sand - light tan 😂
@@drgLACity ok so he woke up with a average tan suppressor in his mouth🤣
It’s unfathomable to me how this can be glorified.

Did you go to war? ?
He's right it's not cool
Banker wars. They fund both sides, sit back and watch them destroy each other. Pretty evil.

This guy could’ve found this exciting, but it can start to look weird when you say shoving your barrel into a sleeping man’s mouth is “cool”.
Doesn’t make him bad, but it does show something
You’re not a warrior
The locals would use the military as a way to settle personal vendettas or go after people who owed them money.
You got used as a loan shark by an Iraqi car dealership.

And what have you achieved in Iraq? Are the people you claimed to help thankful?

@@MandalorianSuperCommando I imagine your Karen neighbor that doesn’t like how often you mow your grass, or complains when you have a car parked in your yard, would love to tell some foreign soldiers that you do suspicious stuff on your free time. The truth is that invading countries and breaking into peoples houses isn’t liberation. And its pretty sickening to hear these guys that we paid for talking about how cool and fun they thought it was to break into peoples houses and abduct them.
Ofcourse it wasn't for no reason! The handful of ppl that controle the world told these countries to do this shit. You think the "government officials" of the world are deciding to do this shit on there own? They get there orders also they just have to sell it to the ppl
IRAQ and AFGHANISTAN had nothing to do with 9-11.
You fought for Israel, not America.
U.S. military is essentially crash dummies for the Israeli government. I’d imagine the Illuminati all have passports from the same county…I wonder how things would read if you replaced the word Illuminati with the word ‘Zionist’ every time you the saw word ‘Illuminati’.
1000% CORRECT!!!!
Yup.
‼️
Correct !!
Wow! Can he hear himself speak? It’s kinda like watching those serial killers being interviewed while in prison.
Spoken like someone who has never fought killers.
Move to a third world country if you're not comfortable with the bloodshed and brutality it takes to keep the West safe.
It's like people who can't kill an animal, but eat meat all their lives. Hippocrites.
Yeh when we go to war next time we should bring social workers to reason with the insurgents and give them a comforting hug instead. This is why every country should have mandatory military service for men. 2 maybe 3 years. It would prevent people like you from judging what these men went through. You wouldn’t last an hour
@@Romanus- It's astonishing, and it's been worse when you consider that young men don't scrap or hold each other accountable, so not only do you have total ignorance about war, but now you have ignorance about violence, period, how and when and why to defend yourself and others,
Boys are playing organized sports less and less, so they don't even have THAT kind of "team spirit" and real competition to fall back on.
You have effectively little boys telling grizzled warriors what their mentality about war should be. 🥴🤮
@@Romanus- okay? Nobody is questioning his toughness, but his sanity. And I'm not even questioning what the guy said at all, but you seem to care an awful lot about what other say. That... is not tough, it makes you a snowflake.

Omg you're so woke
I’d love to hear how you know they are innocent, were you there collecting the intel on week long stake outs? Taking pictures of their every move, listening to phone calls between said innocent civilians and potential terrorists? I was, I can tell you that being a civilian doesn’t make you innocent MANY of them knew information that could be critical to mission success for a bigger target. Sometimes you need to catch the small fish to get to the bigger one, I can tell you’ve never done anything of the sort over there or you’d know how idiotic your comment is.
@@defions4208dude the entire war on iraq was a lie and for israel. Everyone knows this. Saddam and his bathist party were tyrants but the entire war was a lie for goyim to die for the expansion of greater israel.
And you know that how exactly? The internet has made people all too comfortable to pretend they are experts at stuff they have absolutely zero knowledge about
Well i can say for certain this is true guys. And who do you count as a "terrorist" or "insurgent" anyways? We had 14 year old kids as detainees who were sometimes paid a few hundred bucks to dig a hole. Is he worth killing right off the bat?
Use common sense, the man is simply pointing out that innocent people get swept up with bad dudes. And you shouldnt execute people or terrorize them just because you feel like it.

No one who is at war lives like this
"Like it's a game" "Sneaking out" "at night" "capturing them in their beds"
..."Are we the baddies..."
Unfortunately, we've always been the baddies. The entire 20th century was carved by the might of the American military industrial complex and nato being used to reek havoc throughout the earth to establish puppet regimes who play nice with the globalist central private bankers, destroying the infrastructure so globalist capitalism could come in to rebuild for a profit, and killing many many many many generations of people.
We were/are the pawns that clear the chess board for the globalist elites to come in and establish a new world order.🤷♂️
That's the real reason everyone hates us. It's not jealousy, it's just that they lived to reap the consequences of our actions first hand while we're pumped full of msm, social media, and Hollywood propaganda to convince ourselves that we're the greatest. Think about it, just about all of the history that the average brain-dead zombie making up the masses gets about wars comes from Hollywood while the public indoctrination system k-12 teaches them how to be good wage slaves.

@@danielcox7629sure, but not all plans are equally virtuous
@@f308gtb1977you all do understand they’re trained to be ruthless during these missions right? And if the people are just regular civilians they won’t kill them unlike the SS these dudes weren’t instructed to murder innocent people only people affiliated with the enemy and I’d be willing to bet if you were instructed to raid a house that may have enemies in it you wouldn’t give them a welcoming wake up call either it would be “ wake up follow orders with no resistance and or attempt to engage in combat or die” because all it takes is for one of them to have a grenade, suicide vest or gun and now you and your team could very well face severe casualties especially when you’re told you are fighting a terrorist group that wishes death you you and your homeland. These men joined the service and became navy seals to do missions to serve our country that you could probably never even imagine having to deal with and if they have to find enjoyment in the situations they were forced into rather than letting it eat them from the inside out let them. Again these dudes have seen and done shit that would make soft ass people take their own lives and I’m sure even tho they may talk about how fun it was all of these dudes struggle with the memories of what they had to do.

Abu Ghrape was such a disgusting discovery yet most have forgotten about America's true military colors behind closed doors.
Ugh, his "this is awesome" gesture was disgusting bro it's not a video game, you're not in a fucking movie.
Plot twist. Dude was innocent and we just pissed off an entire family, creating how many more enemy?
You clearly have no idea how in-depth the Intel is before you go to these homes and raid them weeks worth of Intel, stake outs from locals employed by us with pictures on their phones, word of mouth from other locals, or prior captured guys just ratting out dudes for their own sake. Raiding the wrong house is possible sure, but the right guy is in that compound 1000%.

Interesting comment ^ we all know that there were detailed books and accounts written by soldiers from past wars, I bet past generations, if immersed into the same technological reality of today, would all do the same thing. We’re all just products of our time, and if it was social acceptable back then, guys would do it, it just wasn’t socially acceptable back then, so human nature demands that people tend to just fit in with the culture of the time. Todays warriors are no less great than past ones imo
I see where you’re coming from. Some say quiet professionals, not silent professionals. I think it’s fine when it’s constructive or serves a purpose, but the random bits of fireside talk seem like a bit much eh?
Makes you tougher? Better? Or are you not able to be yourself? Just wondering the psychology of this. You couldn't not comment here though, so there's something inside you wants to get out.
Why shouldn’t people be told what went on over there??
These guys sacrificed a lot…and sadly I think most people would agree it didn’t change much (and that doesn’t minimize what they went through)
But maybe if the average person had a better understanding of what these decisions meant, they wouldn’t so flippantly throw out best into meat grinders/sacrifice their mental health for no (good) reason.

That's when the ROE wasn't designed to kill our own operators
explain
@soyjawy In the last years of the wars the ROE got so restrictive you couldn't fire unless fired upon, and as soon as they dropped their weapons you couldn't shoot anymore. Lots of watching guys, knowing they were setting up, waiting to get hit, and then they'd just drop their weapons and run if it got to that, just so they could do it again the next day.
@@americanpig-dog7051 under whose orders were those changes made? Was it just certain units or that was the overall rules of engagement for all units? Either way that’s absolutely absurd. Some suit putting his men in constant risk, allowing targets to get the first shots off and then you aren’t even allowed to neutralize the threat if they tuck tail is some of the most irresponsible ROE I can think of
The whole operation. When I was there in Iraq in 2006, the ROE was totally different. You didn't have to wait for someone to point a weapon at you. You also could unalive a person just for having a phone in their hands. The phone could be a detonator. Wasn't waiting to find out. Then things changed.@Romanus-

This is why in ancient times returning armies were not allowed into their home cities without a ritual cleansing of all the evil spirits that attached to the soldiers during combat.
What a heroic moment you shared
Someone had all action figures lined up for battle around his bunk bed.
Navy SEAL: "So this one time, in Iraq!!"
Delta Force: "..."
Navy SEAL: "How come you never tell any stories?"
Delta Force: "We put the silent in silent professional."
The unit guys have done plenty of interviews…difference is their stories are true…. I’m still trying to get a refund for lone survivor & American sniper 😂
🤣@@TheAbyssGazedBack
Didn't two SEALs straight up murder a Delta guy? Let alone some of their own that had a conscience?
@@wheezer6695 seals probably killed tons of seals, they know too much about what really happened all over the world in countries we were never at war with.
@@wheezer6695 if ur talking about Adam Ryker he killed an SF guy, not Delta.
"I went and captured people in their homes based on word of mouth from locals whom I probably had little idea who they were. Yup total high confidence intel."
Lol.. uhhh yeah have you read the senate intelligence committee report on t*rture there buddy? Orrr maybe the more well-known Abu Ghraib scandal? A lot of nobody-citizens got kidnapped based on word of mouth or personal revenge and then tortured horrendously at black sites. But I'm sure you were right 100% of the time. Yeah for sure.
How can he say it was a cool guy mission with everything that has come to light with the style of detention Iraq had?
Bro got played by the "informant" to raid his annoying neighbor lmao
Pointless war, too many casualties, too many dead civilians, and not enough purpose. I guess its cool doing stuff you see in movies but you cant really have pride in being used by the military industrial complex making billions for billionaires. Take care of yourself.
I didn't know they did home invasions in the service 😂
“I’m a bully and a thug and a psychopath, I am SO cool.”

And you were in Iraq why?
For Israel
Oil
Bc corrupt DC politicians told him to go like a good dog.
Just gunna put this out there for the people who are actually interested in the reason rather than the old "oil" jokes
It was due to bad intelligence that Iraq still had chemical weapons. On paper, some of Iraqs chemical weapons marked for disassembly by the UN was unaccounted for/missing.
Plus on top of that Iraq had a history for supporting certain "groups" that did bad things.
Additionally Iraq began refusing to allow UN inspectors into the country.
With September 11th having occurred just a year prior the US as well as Britian and Poland were worried that Iraq may be trying to hand off those missing chemical WMDs to groups to use in the US or other countries that participated in the coalition against it during desert storm
@@LiterallyMojo; but wasn’t 911 the government.

But did you ever try NOT invading a foreign country for absolutely no legitimate reason?
Like Iraq did to Kuwait and tried to do to Iran right? and it’s not like iraq gassed the Kurds in northern Iraq without a legitimate reason
We definitely should have maybe sent a strongly worded statement like your comment instead
@@randallweaver641 that’s not a legitimate reason. And you know it. If Russia invaded the US because the US invaded Afghanistan, you would cry foul.
You just think the US can do anything it wants and kill anyone it wants, anywhere, any time, and it’s automatically good and right because we did it.
@@randallweaver641 lol
“Wake the Fk up!” Love it and thanks for your service!
Were they enemy combatants or innocent civilians. Then when we consider it was all bullshit. What’s an enemy combatant?
How did building 7 magically collapse into its own footprint?
And how did either two of the countries we invaded have anything to do with it?!

Amen. These are the questions THEY don't want asked.
And how did an air liner jet make a small circular hole in the pentagon wall with no plane parts anywhere to he seen at a nearly impossible angle of approach and only one chinsy security gate camera is the only footage of the entire thing in one of the most surveilled territories in the nation?

You know what else is awesome? whenever your colleagues step on an IED, planted by the same dude you woke up 3 times in a row at night & decided to call quits on sleeping at home & went camping with insurgents in the country side
Ab u. G ha rib.
Yes, but when you do that shit you're lowering yourself to their level.
Same guys come home and dont do shit to stop all the bs happening here.
Sucks that we invaded Iraq for the interests of Israel. Nothing against the vets though, they have some amazing stories, valuable experience, and need the best support available. Just sucks our military and the great men and women inside it are defending the interests or fighting on behalf of foreign nations rather than our own.
Many of them realize that. That's why enlistment numbers are in the toilet and most guys that were in the GWOT will tell you they were lied to and their buddies died for no good reason.
I have a feeling every war's vets can empathize with that sentiment, but I think these current vets from the past 20 years have the highest amount of awareness than previous generations due to the ability to share knowledge through the internet
Stop shifting blame. Israel never told America to invade Iraq or any country.
America is an Imperialist nation and chose to do so itself to take over oil refineries in Iraq. It then made up the weapons of mass destruction excuse.
Israel never joined in on your colonial war nor did they express support. That's all you. I hate how Americans can never admit that their country has flaws, it's always someone else.
The guys sleeping, are you sure they did anything wrong other than being poor n sleeping in the same room
They don’t care, they’re the almighty USA. Rules for thee.
So they picked one house to do this to and all the other houses got lucky? There is a reason a specific person or location gets targeted.
@@JTheraos irrelevant. You’re just assuming the reason is good.
@@JTheraosis there? A fucking country got destroyed on wrong intel of it having weapons of mass destruction and you want me to believe they had any real intel of them being bad guys or smth?
@@f308gtb1977 it probably is relevant considering post 2013 is long after the actual Iraqi insurgencies died out, the remaining groups by then were all Iranian-backed Islamist militias and ISIS
Unbelievable! If he is bragging about sticking a suppressor in some sleeping dude’s mouth, one can imagine there is worse behavior that hasn’t been shared nor investigated. Disgusting.
"capturing people in their beds", and risking lives, and ??? you accomplished ??? Sounds like the VietNam stuff... seriously told to me... "For every person we killed, we made ten enemies???" I am confused.
You have a brain

It’s sad to see how happy this guy is about killing… what a lost soul. And I wonder where PTSD comes from I mean listen to this loss of a human being
Imagine being this persons son, daughter, or wife wow. God bless who ever has to deal with such a monster 👹
I saw a recent video he can't sleep through the night, he wakes up 5-7 times a night and clears his house. He also mentioned something about his ex mentioning that he was sleep walking but he says he's wide awake..

Guy joking about doing home invasions and unlawful abductions on people who we all now KNOW weren’t terrorists. And the U.S. wonders why people hate us. 😂😂😂😂
Capturing bad guys and making bad guys is a slippery slope. It’s something the MIC is also okay with.
Yeah but what did you accomplish with that ??? Because its the last man standing who is the winner.
Super gay
There was still a war in 2011? Lmao good thing we got there and built the tennis courts and swimming pools for you guys almost a decade before that so you had something to do. 😂

Bragging about being a henchman for the oligarchy, running around in another man's country who did nothing to you causing mayhem in the interest of corporations

Can't imagine a foreign power occupying my country and breaking into houses like that. That's just horrible. Poor Iraqis.
Man learning history makes you understand we never needed to be in Iraq, Afghanistan, and we especially never needed to be in Vietnam, but albeit it makes the sacrifices of the people who had to fight so much more tragic and at least for me makes me honor veterans sacrifices much more while being more disappointed at the govt.
Bragging about taking down Iraq for Israel? No weapons of mass destruction?
I think it’s a waste of a military operation considering we helped Saddam gain power. Correct me if I’m wrong but both Adolf Hitler and Saddam Hussein were trying to become independent of the banking system.

The term sexy reminds me of an old joke:" a sailor and a marine dead and found themselves at the golden gates and St Peter. They asked St Peter if they got wing's.
Yes said the saint.
But if you have any bad thoughts they will fall off.
They got their wings and walked through the golden gates and immediately a beautiful angel passed by in front of them and the sailor's wing's fell off and as the sailor bent over to pick up his wing's.
The Marines wing's fell off.
😂 Thats a good one. But if you go by military culture, it should be the other way around with the Marine losing his wings first and the sailor second. With the Navy being known as the gayest branch and the Marines uniform being chick magnets.
I think you got that little anecdote backwards
Why do I feel like “capturing people in their beds” is a euphemism?
Carrying all that gear and being silent at night is one of the hardest things to do. With all that crap on you, you are likely going to make noise but that shows how much of a ninja these guys are.
