Completely inexcusable. This was perfidy of the worst kind: telling forces in a position to come to the immediate aid of persons under fire to “stand down” - twice! AND a SO troop lasing the artillery target and denied a Spectre run.

My blood is boiling.

Colonel, USAFR

Any doubts now that this was a planned hostage-taking of Stevens that the terrorists got word of and hijacked the event? Odd how 0bama decided to adhere to the 'Anti-Islam video' that was conjured up in advance to explain the 'protest' that never had a chance to start.

Why was security drawn-down in advance, and the military was not allowed to do a rescue? Hmmmm.. I have no doubts this was a planned hostage-taking gone bad and that 0bama adhered to the 'Anti-Islam video' cover story afterwards (for some reason).

There was someone on the annex roof with a laser to help guide help to them.

They captured 3 Libyan fighters at the annex and had to turn them over.

There were 2 drones over the consulate/annex. One replaced another.

State Dept, White House Situation Room, State Department — those with clearance could watch it all in real time.

3 requests were turned down.

After 1st request (they heard shots at consulate) they were told to stand down, so they waited at the annex for about 1 hour.

After 2nd request denied (again told to stand down) they disobeyed that order and made their way to the consulate and brought back survivors to the annex (took about 1:20).

As soon as they returned to the annex that building started taking mortar fire.

They called again for help.

Never mind the fact 0bama is a Marxist Muslim gay illegal alien. We should NOT have a president with no military experience while in the midst of a war on terror. 0bama has no experience in business or government let alone military experience. What a disgrace he is. A STAIN on America that will never wash out.

More and more looking like a planned hostage taking

Or

a planned murder for some assets/operatives - like Stevens.

“Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, were part of a Global Response Staff or GRS that provides security to CIA case officers and provides countersurveillance and surveillance protection. They were killed by a mortar shell at 4 a.m. Libyan time, nearly seven hours after the attack on the Consulate began — a window that represented more than enough time for the U.S. military to send back-up from nearby bases in Europe, according to sources familiar with Special Operations. Four mortars were fired at the annex. The first one struck outside the annex. Three more hit the annex.”

I don’t want a movie.

A movie means nothing.

Rummychick, I realize today what has happned.

The president of the United States, his cabinet, his government, our white house turned their backs on genuine heroes as they fought and died for America.

They ordered them to stand down and then they let them die while they watched.

They ordered them to stand down and then they let them die while they watched.

I want the president and his entire cabinet arrested, charged and tried for treason in a military court.

I have had enough of this bastard.
