Here’s what I know about Hicks: Experienced all this trauma 9/11/12. Voted for Obama in November.
The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
Who is appointed by and serves at the pleasure of President Obama.
said Wednesday that four members of Army special forces in Tripoli were never told to stand down
This means that Dempsey 'believes' no one in the chain of command used the words 'stand down'
after last year's deadly assault
assassination over an 11 hour period in which the United State's military's fast reaction forces did nothing and special forces were tasked with protecting the Tripoli airport from TSA screeners
on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya,
a CIA compound and the meeting place for pro-American Syrians and our openly homosexual, gone native, Ambassador to Libya engaged in a trade aka Guns for the Muslim Brotherhood
disputing a former top diplomat's claim that the unit might have helped Americans under siege.
The Money Quote and hopefully you'll lose interest and stop paying attention. What's Beiber up to anyway?
Army Gen.
a rank earned via being aggressively political and learning to cover up mistakes
Martin Dempsey said timing and the need for the unit to help with casualties from Benghazi resulted in orders for the special forces to remain in Tripoli.
Whoops, if you read this far and are still conscientiously reading you can see that Dempsey is lying. He should have blamed the Sequester for the staffing shortfall.
Four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens, died in two separate attacks several hours apart on the night of Sept. 11.
Americans here is used in the sense of the word 'nobodies' and not in the sense that they're, you know, Americans representing America or in the service of America or deserving of any sort of attention or protection from our government which was monitoring the event from numerous HQs in real time. Furthermore the significance of the 9/11 date of the attacks has nothing to do with anything else from history despite the fact that Islamists are monomaniacs when it comes to historical dates. Also, please ignore the fact that the British, French and Red Cross pulled their people out of Libya based on intelligence and hostilities leading up to this date.
Gregory Hicks, a former diplomat in Tripoli at the time of the attack
An infidel both in the eyes of Allah and the Obama Administration
, told a House panel last month that the unit was told to stand down. Dempsey said that was not the case. "They weren't told to stand down. A 'stand down' means don't do anything," he said. "They were told that the mission they were asked to perform was not in Benghazi, but was at Tripoli airport."
I [Dempsey] cannot be held in contempt or charged with Lying to Congress because I gave a Clintonesque definition of 'stand down' in my answer. You see, no one was told to 'do nothing' we did something, just not the something that would have killed our enemies and saved lives. This operation was more like watching an assasination. Where 'watching' is doing something, capiche?
Of course, the reporter is just reporting a planted story and didn't need to do any background or research. It's not editorializing if you're just reporting what the government press release said, right?
