Are we to believe that an American embassy under attack has to REQUEST help?
A couple weeks ago a former special operator called into a talk show to explain to the host how it works when an embassy or consulate is under attack. Immediately after the first shots were fired, a communications specialist (likely Sean Smith) fired off numerous secure communications to a post in DC that reports directly to the President. Those secure communications would've outlined that the embassy was under attack and needed immediate assistance. That communication would've been handed to the President directly. That communications specialist cannot hand the communication to anyone except the president, so Obama knew. He knew, he had to make a call, and he did not.
4 men died as a result.
