(CBS News) U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta was the man in charge on the night of the mission to kill Osama bin Laden. This week, a retired Navy SEAL involved in executing the mission, who is using the pseudonym, Mark Owen, spoke to Scott Pelley in an interview that aired on "60 Minutes," on Sept. 9.

On Tuesday, Sept. 11, Panetta appeared on "CBS This Morning" to speak out on the revelatory interview, shedding new light on what Owen's interview and book detailing the raid mean for his fellow Navy SEALs, how Owen's book has been received by the intelligence community, and will add new details to Owen's account.

My Comment: So .... US Secretary of Defense Panetta is angry .... I only wish that he was just as angry and enraged towards the White House and the leaks that have come out of that office in the past year than he is with a book that got published without his say-so. But .... we all know where this is heading .... "Mark Owen" is going to get punished .... but those from the White House will be left alone.
