It would be nice if they were practicing to bomb Iran.

"four F-15E’s, callsigns ABLE 01 through 04, took off from their home base at RAF Lakenheath laden with yellow banded (live) AIM-9M sidewinders, AIM-120 AMRAAMS and no less than seven 500lb Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAMs)."And by September, Obama has promised a decision on the authority to use them.

Well written and sourced piece. So we have proof that US strike aircraft could of been in Benghazi in 6 hours. Italian based ones even sooner.

This was RAF.
They likely *did* take out a high value target.
Obama will read about it in the news. (He never goes to his daily intelligence briefing.)
