Navy SEAL killed in Yemen was William 'Ryan' Owens, 36

What was the purpose of this mission again?

We are told that the purpose of sending a human team in was to either kidnap someone alive or secure some physical intel.

But that is just offered as speculative justification.

Apparently, the mission is to target and kill families.
The attack in rural Yemen has been described as an effort to target the al-Dhahab family, who is considered an al Qaeda ally.

Three members of that family — Abdul-Raouf al-Dhahab, Sultan al-Dhahab, and Seif al-Nims — were killed Sunday. Fourteen other people described by the U.S. as militants were also killed.

Bullshit... you only win if the enemy isn't willing to pull the trigger.
