I don’t disagree with you outright, but some clarifications:
1. SEALs on site were not SEALs. They were private contractors whom were once Navy SEALs. They were detailed by the State Dept. to find ground-to-air missiles. They had been fairly successful in this effort.
2. Those SEALs were not his security detail.
3. Sean Smith was a USAF Communications Spec., not a SEAL. He was Stevens’ comms guy.
4. You don’t make your CIA man the Ambassador. But Sean Smith could have been the active CIA man on scene. Which is why he was there. It’s possible, but not a definite.
5. All four of these men were not protected because Hillary Clinton is not a smart person. There was, apparently, no security detail for Stevens; neither in Bengahzi, nor Tripoli.
6. Steven’s State Dept. rise/career has been public. He’s in the diplomatic corps and his trip to Libya was pretty well publicized after Hillary swore him in her self.
7. Sean Smith posted that comment on his game because that is how he communicates with the CIA handler... and his buddies in the game. It’s a two-fer!
8. I believe that Stevens never made it to the safe house. From what I understand.
Summary: So why would an Ambassador, a weapons destruction team, and a comms guy (God knows, maybe the CIA man) be in the Bengahzi Consulate at 10PM on 9/11?
A very private and important meeting about a cache of missiles.
Which it turns out was an ambush.
Thank you the best explanation and facts I have seen. Here is the last article on his “State Dept work”

I was wondering about this the other day. Is it possible that U.S. intelligence, or even the State Department itself, received information about some specific threat to the embassy in Tripoli, and then decided to secretly relocate Stevens to the mission in Benghazi as a precaution, where he’d be safer, if no one knew about the move. And doing so under the radar, by not taking a substantial security force for protection.
Then it turns out that the intel was a ruse by AlQueda, to cause the move to happen, knowing they could more easily get to Stevens in that place.
And the state department fell for it hook, line and sinker, leading to the attack and his assassination. Something like that would cause the administration to deny it was a planned attack, and for obvious reasons. They would look pretty stupid, and also responsible.
I don’t need to know everything about you life but how do you come by this information?
