Maybe this is some of the confusion....Looks like the media needs Unclewest to help them define the correct terms.... The media said: Weldon also says in this video, at around the 33-minute mark when the chart makes its appearance, that the unit responsible for the chart prepared a three-hour brief for General Hugh Shelton that included recommendations for an attack on five AQ cells identified by this "Special Forces" program (Able Danger was a Special Operations Command program). Weldon's contact, probably Col. Tony Shaffer, told Weldon that the briefing got reduced to a one-hour presentation and did not include any recommendations for action. Unclewest said: Let’s get the definitions squared away first. The term “SPECIAL OPERATIONS FORCES” is an umbrella term for a variety of commando outfits belonging to the various services, including Army Rangers, Navy Seals, and the secret Delta Force, whereas “SPECIAL FORCES” refers solely to the Green Berets, who are the topic of this book.
