"(The) basic principle is that you dont deploy forces into harms way without knowing whats going on; without having some real-time information about whats taking place,How much data does it take to put aircraft over the target area? The deliveries these CIA operatives would have wanted could have been achieved with little or no risk to the pilots.

Wow, he put the official rubber stamp on the “study” to determine whether gays should serve in the military, then when the last head of africom was relieved they sent him to be his replacement, and now he’s relieved. Shows how loyalty only goes one way.

Does zero really think that high ranking, deployed (as opposed to Pentagon brass like powell) officers are going to take the heat for zero’s and clinton’s mismanagement???

But it also means 0bama was cool about Stevens being dead.
What did Stevens know?

It could be the White House perceives a flag-rank level mutiny happening among U.S. forces deployed in the Middle East. Carter Ham and Shoemaker may just be part of it. It might amount to official complaints filed by these guys over Benghazi. Or refusing to sign on to the White House version of Sept. 11-12. The assistant commandant of the Marine Corps is also being replaced. Where was he on Sept. 11?

I’ve been warning about the coming military purge a-la Stalin 1933 for some time now.
So far we have seen many field grade officers driven out, prematurely retired, or jailed for lack of fidelity to the Muslim in charge.
Gen. Ham was probably looking down the barrel of a 9mm knowing what would happen if he tried to resist - the bloodletting phase of the PURGE would have begun.
It has come so close during this incident that I can’t imagine that the mass murdering stage won’t soon begin.
I wonder how many officers might have actually shot each other over the Bengazi debacle, and we will never know about it?
I suspect that you are about to see targeted assassinations of Officers whose loyalty to Obungo is questioned. They will make it look like “accidents” or “hostile fire” at first; expect a lot of mysterious plane crashes with field grade officers on board, just like the plane carrying all of those absentee ballots for the troops.
If significant units turn on their PC hack officers and mutiny, as some apparently came all too close to doing this time, hell will lay a big fat juicy egg and the Juma will dance and yodel “Allah Achubaw” as the US military destroys itself all around them.
Either way, Obama is assuring himself that a coup will not happen, and the American sheeple will remain at his and his mercenary thug DHS brownshirt’s mercy as they deploy to enforce martial law...
And don’t count on much of that.

That doesn't sound like a ringing endorsement.

Should have read Gaouette instead of Shoemaker in above post.

So we are blaming the military for Benghazi? This just gets worse and worse. God help us all.

What did Stevens know?enough to get him killed / murdered...now, if he were a Muslim...
"Malaise / Stand-Down" O'Bozo, may have acknowledged his (Stevens')
sacrifice..since he wasn't; he was treated like Camel dung.

Perhaps a sign that honorable military men are disagreeing with their political officers and are getting sacked for that. More likely a sign that the admiral was messing around with a female subordinate.

I do know that at least 50% of our nuclear submarine commanders have slowly been replaced over the last 4 years by those who are loyal to 0bama.

No mention if it is in the Med or somewhere near the Persian Gulf, which is also the Middle East I believe the Stennis is in the Arabian Sea. At the time of the Benghazi event, there were no carriers in the Mediterranean.
