Remembering the USS Cole bombing

We are putting this episode up early for a very important reason. On this date, October 12th of 2000, was the bombing of the USS Cole. Kirk Lippold was the Commanding Naval Officer aboard the Cole, and he joins us for an in-depth look at what happened on that day. Kirk is also a public speaker with Keppler, the author of "Front Burner: Al Qaeda's Attack on the USS Cole," and you can find him on X @KirkLippold Prior to that discussion though, we are joined by Dan Gordon, IDF Sniper and Hollywood film writer, to give us his take on the barbaric terrorist attack in Israel just days ago.Follow us:http://instagram.com/battlelinepodcasthttp://twitter.com/battlelinepodCheck out The Battleline Podcast Vault for limited edition gear from the show: http://battlelinepodcast.etsy.com/For 15% off all Fort Scott Munitions ammo & gear go to http://fsm.com & use promo code: BattlelineFor 20% off all Bubs Naturals gear and products including collagen protein and MCT oil powder, go to https://www.bubsnaturals.com/?discount=BATTLELINE ..
