For years, the Obama Administration has stood behind two excuses (given under oath) for not sending a quick reaction force to assist in rescuing American citizens during the Sept. 11, 2012 al Qaeda-linked attacks on the U.S. consulate and CIA annex in Benghazi, Libya, which resulted in the deaths of four Americans. The first excuse being: There were no forces available that could have responded quickly. The second reason was: Even if they had scrambled more people, they couldn't have gotten there in time to make a difference.
Now, an email, hidden for three years, has come to light and refutes the Obama Administration's narrative as to why our boys at Benghazi weren't given the reinforcements that may have saved their lives.
Former Defense Department Chief of Staff, Jeremy Bash, sent an email to the State Department early into the attacks that clearly states that we had multiple quick reaction forces ready to action on the objective, which adds further significant proof that the rescue forces were deliberately stopped by the White House.
Bash's email, sent to top State Department officials just three hours into the eight hour ordeal said, "...we have identified the forces we could move to Benghazi. They are spinning up as we speak. They include a SOF (Special Operations Forces) element that was in Croatia, and a Marine FAST unit out of Roda, Spain." Meaning, there were at least two elite units that were at REDCON-1 (all personnel geared up, seated on the aircraft, weapons ready, with the engines started). They just needed clearance from the Commander in Chief to enter Libya. That clearance never came.

Well... I can dream.
The Kenyan and Klinton should both be in jail for the murder of these four Americans.
Am I the only person who read this headline and pictured the response teams literally “stopping by” the White House, maybe to have a cup of coffee with Barky and Hills?
No.
The article only stated the WH simply did not respond.
The headlines implied there was an actual email from the WH that denied assistance.
Obamatollah and Hellry should be hung in public for their treason - but I highly doubt they will see justice.
Not to nitpick, but “...and a Marine FAST unit out of Roda, Spain.” should read ‘Rota, Spain’.
“NAVSTA Rota plays a crucial role in supporting our nationâs objectives and defense, providing unmatched logistical support and strategic presence to all of our military services and allies. NAVSTA Rota supports Naval Forces Europe-Africa, 6th Fleet and COCOM strategic priorities by providing airfield and port facilities, security, force protection, logistical support, administrative support and emergency services to all U.S. and NATO forces.”
That is because Obola was coked out of his mind that night, and I don’t mean soda.
In the absence of an alert, sober President, ValJar and Hillary conspired to lie and blame a video.
Remember there was live video streaming from both the embassy and the CIA annex in real time as well as drone and satellite imagery.This video and audio was also streamed over the military networks to major area command centers and the Pentagon. This was testified to in front of Congress in October, 2012.
No one in the White House can say they were not aware what was going on.
The only thing that mattered was the spin.
In the meantime, 4 Americans died and another 38 almost did.
Called it from the beginning. Ambassador Stevens was murdered by our own government.
Now we need to find out WHY....and that path leads to the caliphate called ISIS.
"CBA required" email has surfaced, just may be?
No surprise there.
Bash stated forces were spinning up to assist our men. Awaiting clearance to enter the Area Of Conflict, just needed WH permission to cross the border...
Which never arrived.
See justice? Those who escape justice in this life surely will not escape in the next.
It looks to me like these units were ordered by someone to spin up, unless they spend their waking days sitting in a running aircraft with weapons and full battle gear. Someone in their chain of command must have requested permission to proceed.
Why is it so hard to find out the orders that were given that night? These commands must have logbooks, eyewitness accounts, etc. Or maybe the troops just go find a running plane to sit in whenever they have time off????
Of that we all agree.
“No one in the White House can say they were not aware what was going on.”
There are official notification methods that require the President or designated members of the National Command Authority be informed. After that the onus is on them.
It could have been worse. They might have said ‘a fast marine unit from Rhoda (Spain)’...
Or “Rhonda”.
Don’t forget these are the same menial minions that continue to confuse “loose” with “lose”. You lame looser. (snicker)
The President probably heard about it the same time you did; on the nightly news. Actually, Obama has said this before, no joke.
I’m going with the theory that he was to be kidnapped and traded for the Blind Sheik.
