Knowing who he knows, I'd give it .75 our of 10 on the veracity meter, without confirmation.
He also identified the team member who shot bin Laden.

The shootout theory is total rubbish. ST6 went there with orders to kill OBL, not take him prisoner, no chance for Al-Quada to begin taking hostages of their own to negotiate the release of OBL.
How to draw this conclusion? Consider all of the apparatas on-hand to make positive identification. Consider that an Islamic cleric was waiting on-board the ship where OBL's body was transported to. Consider the quickness with which it was decided to give him a burial at sea.
This was a hit...(as it should have been)...pure and simple...and the bacon on the bullet thingy is pure rubbish as well.
