Part 1: Delta Force's Dale Comstock: I Hypnotized Myself at 15 Years Old to Be Better, and It Works

Dale Comstock pushes back hard on Robert O’Neill’s claim on VladTV that an “unspoken rule” allowed up to 23 civilian casualties while targeting one terrorist. Speaking with Vlad, Comstock says there is no acceptable number of innocent deaths in combat, calling the idea irresponsible and damaging to the public’s understanding of military operations. He explains that missions in Afghanistan required precision planning, not a “collateral damage” mindset, and shares a painful battlefield story involving Taliban attacks, an observation post, Afghan civilians, and the lasting moral weight of unintended casualties. Comstock also opens up about PTSD, remorse, and the difference between accepting the realities of war and treating civilian loss as permissible. The conversation touches on Navy SEAL culture, Osama bin Laden raid veteran Robert O’Neill, rules of engagement, counterterrorism, Afghanistan warfare, and the human cost behind today’s military debates.
