Biden said ‘we didn’t know’ during his debate with Ryan. I can’t think of 3 WORSE PEOPLE to have in this situation than these three. Those poor Americans, they were doomed from the start with these 3 COWARDS at the helm.
Say what you want about Obama and Biden. But I have NEVER understood why Panetta is in such a sensitive post. He is a political hack. I cannot stand him and do NOT trust him.
Has there been any polling on whether anyone outside of the hard-core conservative 20 % have even heard of it?
They were meeting at 5pm in the white hut to discuss the rescue of hostages...oops...at least that was on the initial itinerary.
This all means NOTHING. No Republican has the spine to stand up.
Yawn, nothing will happen. I promise you!
The second drone was from OUTSIDE Libya —it came from SIGONELLA, Sicily...! It replaced the first drone that egressed owing to low fuel.
That’s important because a cross-border authorization can only come from POTUS. But the notion the relief drone would have been authorized by POTUS directly but remained UNARMED...?
That detail almost certainly would be something the President would have SPECIFIED...!
I’m saying that before he went to bed he must have said, “Just MONITOR the situation but DO NOT ATTACK”
LOL. We don't need DOD to comment on the obvious. The WH knew almost at the same time as the State Dept since flash traffic goes to all the various agencies command centers. And you can bet they discussed what to do.
FORMER DELTA OPERATOR ON “THE PANETTA DOCTRINE” OR ALSO KNOWN AS “THE DUMBEST SHIT I EVER HEARD!”
There is no mention of communication between the CIA and the White House. All we get is the State Dept side of it. The CIA was in constant communication with Woods. The CIA has sole control of the Predator drones. Obama approved two armed Predator drones for Libya in April. Woods painted the terrorist gunner with a laser so the drone could take it out, instead the gunner used the laser to take out Tyrone Woods.
Now, we have heard that the Libyans complained about the armed drones being used, but how would they know whether the drones were armed or not?
the more I learn about this disaster the worse it gets
Yah....they discussed Youtube movie reviews.....
the question we should be asking is,
Who gave the order to deny air support?
The email is secondary, Obama knew when the initial phone call came in, your article says after an “email”, “just 55 minutes after a State Department email notified the White House”, here’s where Obama admits he knew when the initial phone call came;
TRANSCRIPT: Presidential debate on foreign policy at Lynn University

Obama “Now with respect to Libya, as I indicated in the last debate, when we received that phone call, I immediately made sure that, number one, that we did everything we could to secure those Americans who were still in harm’s way;”
And here’s when the phone call was placed to Washington(which would have been approx 9:40pm at the consulate);
http://www.state.gov/r/pa/prs/ps/2012/10/198791.htm
SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL:“...I neglected to mention from the top that that agent from the top of this incident, or the very beginning of this incident, has been on the phone. He had called the quick reaction security team, he had called the Libyan authorities, he had called the Embassy in Tripoli, and he had called Washington.”
There were three people there but no one qualified to talk about the problem, that’s the problem.
At what point in time did Obama decide to simply let these people die?
Did he watch the rape of Stevens? Who was the last American killed before he went to bed? Did he quickly fall asleep and dream of Vegas?
If all of those murdered were black, would he have sent them help to survive?
I want to see justice and without any quarter given.
