You think the communications out of a US embassy aren't monitored? I'd bet that a host of people---all the way up the chain of command were aware of exactly what was going on, when it was going on, and either through political constraints (waiting for the OK to mount some sort of operation), or through inaction, did nothing. You can't expect anyone with a lick of sense to believe that there are not plans in place for just such an event at any embassy, nor can anyone credibly deny that there are contingency plans for attacks like the one mounted.

It's a safe bet that exactly what was going on was known. Nothing was done.

To add to the fun, what sort of communications devices, protocols, etc. and actionable intelligence data was scrounged from the embassy? Are our communications now compromised as a result?

Last evening there was a thread posted on information from one of the folks who was at the compound the whole duration of the attack. He gave a minute by minute, play by play of the action from beginning to end when they arrived at the outpost 2 kilometers away from the embassy.. I can't find it now,, please someone repost if you're aware of the article I am speaking of,,,,

Col. David Hunt explains how at least 12 command centers got near INSTANTANEOUS info when the Benghazi consulate was attacked, including a manned WH situation room. Hundreds of government personnel listened/watched for 6 hours in real time as the attack ensued. Hunt says it is standard operating procedure when an embassy is attacked.

WH gave no military order to intervene.

They knew almost immediately that there was NO protest, NO mob-— just a surgical jihad operation viewed instantaneously in real time by governmental operations centers all over the world, including CIA, Dept of State and WH situation room, for over 6 hours.

In short, everyone knew, almost immediately, what happened in Benghazi was an act of war.
