False claim: Biden revealed identities of Navy SEAL Team Six
A lengthy post on social media makes the claim that on May 3, 2011 then Vice President Joe Biden publicly revealed the identities of the Navy SEAL Team Six, a special operation unit responsible for the killing of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden. This is untrue.
The post makes the further claim that Biden’s remarks put the lives of SEAL Team Six at risk of retaliation by “the Taliban”, “jihadists” and “al Qaeda sympathizers” and implies he is responsible for the attack against U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan in August, 2011 that killed 31 personnel, including 25 Navy SEALs. Examples of the post can be seen here , here .
There is no evidence to corroborate that Biden publicly revealed the names of SEAL Team Six members or of their families.
