The cover up continues.

When you are being shot at it is normal to call for back-up.

They are going to tell us that Navy SEALS are too stupid to call for back-up??

OK, all former and current military, tell us if you believe this bowl of BS.

The State department was the responsible agency when it came to providing protection for the ambassador and his staff. But no one is asking Hillary about it - she is on a wine tasting trip to australia, following up on her women´s
issues conference in south america.
The CIA is a covert agency. they would not want to call in the U.S. military to show their operations. The American embassy, often entangled with CIA operatives, is not a secret, covert agency.
Broadwell and the Kelley twins are mere distractions.

Talk about parsing and the press letting them get by with it! Read carefully, the statements do not say the CIA did not ask for help, they say the CIA did not ask for "Europe-based special operations teams, specialized Marine platoons, or armed drones". Begs for a follow up!

So by answering this way Mikey secures the top job. Someday the truth will come out, it always does. Question is ,will you believe the truth when you see it?

silly question, probably irrelevant, but why do "senior military officers" need anyone planning parties for them?

Reminds me of an air force vet relative (in his late 20s now) refering to these brass as "pinkie-ringed."

Anyway, there is an elaborate cover-up going on for sure. I mis-read #1´s last phrase as, "tell us if you believe these bowels of BS." honest. Fits, though.

You are watching LIVE your people being attacked and slaughtered and you WAIT for a call for help?! God help my poor country.

Didn´t this happen in New Orleans during Katrina - they didn´t ask for help but Bush was blamed and is still blamed?

Not calling for aid is just as outrageous and everyone in the chain of command should be tried for dereliction.

Who told the Navy Seals at the Annex to stand down for the first twenty to thirty minutes. When the Seals left the embassy to go back to the Annex, were they part of CIA or Department of Defense? Because they certainly did call for help. What government organizations heard those calls and ordered their teams to stand down? What moron thinks this parsing of the events is going to satisfy?

Their security force was gutted, their repeated requests for additional security staff denied, their facilities were below standards, the security force they were provided was by locals who bugged out, they were under attack by a superior number of hostiles, they were out-armed, and their superiors who are watching the battle unfold in real time did not call for rescue? And the answer we are to believe is that they did not call for help and we can all just move on? Yeah, that doesn´t stink at all./s

Fine, then join the crowd for trail on manslaughter charges. Before you do that though, you are fired and all pension/benefits are stripped for gross incompetence. BTW, it will be a military trial.

That would be the way it could happen... if this were the United States of about 1959.

I just wonder how many more American Troops and Personnel have to DIE, before zero´s regime decides to protect them OR let them protect themselves?

Hmmmmm- RE: The Drone. What about the video´s in the media showing the beginning of the attack while the jihadists were milling around outside of the building prior to setting it on fire. Which Drone relayed those pics and Ms. Lamb from State already testified they watched in real time. Somethings just don´t ad up.

Everyone is all t eager to forget that there is verified reports and video of a CIA Employee on the roof of one of the safe house using a targeting Lazer... Should we assume that was just for practice or was te C130 overhead with a hold fire order?

Abrupt retirement of Gen Carter Ham, AFRICOM Commander at the time of the 9/11 Benghazi attack attributed to family issue is bizarre on its face. It maybe so, but for a 4 Star General to disappear all of a sudden well-short of his tour should be explored further. The question would be why? Was he sending help to Libya and was told to stand down by Panneta, but refused? And what happened to Rear ADM Gaouette, Battle Group Commander of the Stennis? Why was he unceremoniously relieved in the middle of the deployment? So many questions, few answers.
