Green Beret Supports Tim Kennedy?

Please consider watching the whole video so you know what I am trying to say, seems a lot of folks might just be looking at the title. Support is different than defending lies, and I clearly make the point there are clarifications needed. There is a lot of emotional negative comments on here, at least make it constructive like my audio is not good (which I am already aware of). In the end it is just a call to calmer discussions, and more private dialogue. I am ok with getting back to security videos about schools and churches.

I've never cared about the dumb stories. In my most recent i provided 15+ times, including on his own website Tim has lied about having valor awards and BSM-Vs. I have his official military award records as of 12-23-2024. He does not have any valor awards. This is indefensible regardless of whether he is your friend or not.

Him being a “good dude” has nothing to do with what’s going one

[Makemsalty]

No, fuck that. He doesn't get a pass. Every story this guy has, he is not only the main character, but the best. Even as a child. He claims at a youth meet he went and broke into every car, just to prove to himself that he could. He claims to have repelled into buildings of companies just to prove he could. He has a hero complex and wants people to see him as a savior amoung men. As for the Bronze star w/ V device. This wasn't on one site of his but multiple. Even on his own website.

Also, down playing someone else's opinion because they see through Tim's bullshit is crazy bud. Essentially calling all the other SOF guys irrelevant is pretty freaking crazy. Tim charges 150 to 200K for a speech where he lies to people. Not just any people, aspiring soldiers, aspiring SF guys, kids looking for a role model. In his story dealing with the ambush in Afghanistan he basically claims everyone with him is an idiot and if it was for their lord and savior Tim, no one would have made it home. What about those guys service and career? Tim get's to downplay that in your book?

Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless service, Honor, Integrity, Personal Courage. These values form the cornerstone of Leadership and are essential to the character of the men and women who serve this country. So why are you compromising your Integrity? Have some damn personal courage. Tim WILL be defined by his actions as he should be.

I’ll just say as a person who helped get him to do a speech for a company for veterans that he charged $10k then not willing to shake my hand after he is done speaking. He deserves everything he is getting. He spoke to veterans with many of them with bronze stares with valor and Purple Hearts. Me included. Till he proves he got that bronze star with Valor that he advertises on all of his personals and professional profiles. Then he deserves everything he gets. We already got back his up to date ERB from a FOIA request. We know the truth. We are giving home time to correct him self for that bronze stares he earned on 8/1/2006. The only one he has.

Antihero gave Tim an open invitation to come onto their podcast months before they even recorded the episode.

[Wellington-nlvm]

No one is questioning Tim's "opinions" and/or if he's a "good guy". They are addressing blatant lies and stolen valor in a biography that he wrote together with a writer. All of the accusations made in the antihero podcast have first hand sources confirming the lies, it''s not rumours. His injury was from IED shrapnel, also he mentions he have a puple heart in the book. There is no record from the medic that he got injured.

This whole thing is not about taking someone famous down, it's about "policing your own" like they say in the antihero podcast. If you as a SF community accept lies, stolen valor etc, then how far can it go? Where are your morals as a community? People died and here's a guy taking credit for stuff he didn't do that someone else maybe died for. It makes no sense defending this.

[celiaperez]

5:10. we’re supposed to let him lie because we’re scared of him????

[zigmarsz.]

There is a video out there with many of his interviews where he said all this and more BS himself. Tim lies for views. You have ZERO arguments.

[grogdizzy]

kennedy is doubling down on his lies. He's not a good dude, and his long tab should be revoked.

[PAHomesteader]

Don’t get on the wrong side of this. It already clear he lied

[atacorion]

This is an absolutely ridiculous take on the TK situation. As a Green Beret yourself you can't hold somebody accountable for the lies they told, I think that speaks to your moral compass as a soldier.

[anthonylewis]

Co signing Tims bs makes you complicit.

[Fmech]

Your counterarguments are wild...Keep in mind that Tim could have easily cleared all this up by holding up his Bronze Star w/Valor and Purple Heart citations at any point during his response video. He did not do that, which makes it even more obvious that it was all fabricated. My opinion will remain steadfast until Tim starts showing receipts.

[grogdizzy]

Tim is the one making the SOF community look bad, not the guys trying to hold him accountable. Are we supposed to just sit and watch as his stories get more and more unbelievable and he keep making money off of his lies and stolen valor? Have you read his book? did you watch the anti-hero podcast about it?

[infantry]

Why in the hell does him being a UFC fighter matter. If they don't pull his tab shame on them.

[alexmsibert]

Why comment on this if you didn’t even watch the original podcast? You missed every point made against his statements. You did zero research and say I don’t know a ton. Embellishing and straight up lying is very different.

[taylormcdowell]

There is no way veterans are coming out “for the views”.

SF, Rangers and Delta used to be Silent Professionals..You are 100 % correct...as a retired MSG, 11Z...you guys look like a Soap "Opera" tion now...focus on your jobs instead of the cash...Look up Kennedy speaking at Street Cop Training in Atlantic City, NJ a few years ago...he sounds like a loon giving a talk that should be reserved for the Bayonet Assault Course not a Police Force.

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! It makes the entire military look bad. Let’s all move on now.
