Osama bin Laden Navy SEAL boasts of killing more people than Jeffrey Dahmer, says guest on Piers Morgan show.

Robert ONeill, the former U.S. Navy SEAL credited with taking out Osama bin Laden, made a startling claim that he has killed more people than Jeffrey Dahmer during a contentious discussion on a panel show regarding U.S. military action against Venezuelan drug vessels.

The conversation, which took place on Piers Morgan Uncensored, escalated after the panel examined the deadly September airstrikes targeting a Venezuelan vessel in the Caribbean. The debate highlighted allegations of war crimes linked to a second strike ordered on two survivors on September 2. A U.S. admiral briefed lawmakers privately about this follow-up operation on Thursday.

Human rights lawyer and former Democratic congressional candidate Qasim Rashid criticized President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, asserting they have killed more people than Jeffrey Dahmer, referring to the notorious serial killer who murdered 17 men and boys between 1978 and 1991.

ONeill did not shy away from the comparison. Dude, I've killed more people than Jeffrey Dahmer and I don't think I'm a bad guy, he responded, defending his position in the context of sanctioned military operations. He supported the administrations lethal strikes on the vessel, stating, If these are designated terrorist organizations, hitting them with a drone strikeis within legal authorization and they have teams of lawyers telling them that too.

He also referenced the 2011 drone strike that killed Anwar al-Awlaki, an American-born al-Qaeda operative, and his son two weeks later, noting that these actions, carried out under the Obama administration, did not attract significant controversy. We killed an American in 2011 in Yemen in a drone strike. He wasn't convicted by a jury. Then we killed his son two weeks later. President Obama was in charge. So not a lot of hullabaloo about that ONeill stated.

ONeill later amplified his statement on social media, writing: Jeffrey Dahmer killed 17 people. Gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers.

The comments coincided with a closed-door briefing by Admiral Mitch Bradley to lawmakers about the September strike, which Democratic Rep. Jim Himes described as one of the most troubling things he has seen in public service, highlighting the intense scrutiny over the military operation.
