FYI. I had to post these comments after seeing the movie, 13 Hours: The secret Soldiers of Benghazi.
Please feel free to share, post elsewhere, and comment on if you have a mind to do so..
Jeff, I agree....
A MUST SEE movie!!!!!!!
People were leaving my theater mumbling angrily...
....’they left them’...!!!!!...... No one helped!!!!!
I saw it a couple of weekends ago. They were the best of us, and that entire State Dep’t. failed them. All the while, all those morons on the ground were reminding them that they were not Harvard/Yale graduates, and how superior they were, that these, the best of us, were a bunch of dumb, muscle-bound jocks no different that night shift security guards in local buildings. That the State Dep’t. couldn’t even send a plane for the bodies is ___________ - something, but I don’t know the word for it. :(
I still have yet to get the time to see this.
BTTT

Thanks for posting this Jeff.
Even Stevens died honorably in Bengazi. He was preparing to spill the beans on Obama arming revolutionaries in Syria.

No longer have to wonder how our current president and wannabe president will respond to that fateful phone call at 3 in the morning. Hell, they could not even answer the phone at 3 in the afternoon.
The "most transparent president and administration" refuses to say where he was at during this period. Obviously with someone/somewhere that would be more damaging if known than refusing to answer.
It was obvious the contractors felt they were betrayed by someone high in the administration when during the mop up, it was wondered aloud "how the hell did they (insurgents) get they exact coordinates for their mortar fire?" Very relevant question considering almost all US military commanders had no idea this compound even existed till calls for help went out.
Best take-away line for me . . . "Did anybody on our side ever answer the phone?"
Come on folks, give it a break about the crude language. Most appropriate when the character Sonjia was asked about her authority to request help. Anything less than crude language from her would have been meaningless.
Many funny lines/statements of obvious truth throughout.
>> The movie has very course language and extreme violence.
Compared to ordinary cable content, it was tame.
>> The first is to God in Heaven that He will see that Justice is served on those who failed their countrymen so horribly for pure political expediency.
Exactly. An absolutely disgusting moment for the chain of command.
13 Hours was finally released to disk. An excellent film.
Calling Hillary a witch is an insult to witches. She should be rotting in jail.
