The stand down order was NOT given to the Army Special Forces anywhere. The order was given to the cia contractors, the ex NAVY SEALS, NOT ONCE BUT TWICE. THEY disobeyed those orders. dempsey used a different time, a different place that had nothing to do with the SEALs. NO orders were forthcoming from anyone to do anything anywhere. NO ONE could act on their own because only the president has the authority to give a crossborder order. THAT did not happen. He left them to die.
Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.

I read it as Dempsey saying the forces in Tripoli were not told to ‘stand down’ they were told to guard Tripoli. These are the forces that the acting ambassador wanted to put on a plane to Benghazi - and testified as much.
These forces were as far as Benghazi is concerned told to stand down. (but were actually ordered to “stay in tripoli, and guard/do nothing”
