Ping for ping lists

maggief: The Hunt interview has been posted as a thread. This interview is explosive and mind-blowing.

As COUNTrecount said on the other thread when he posted the link:

“Col. Hunt ...explains how at least 12 command centers get IMMEDIATE info when the embassy was attacked.”

Hunt said that from the moment the call went in to Lamb, all of those command centers were instantaneously notified.

Hunt said that as soon as he heard Lamb’s testimony he was stunned. Said this is the elephant in the room the media refuses to report. He said none of what I am saying is my opinion. It is fact and standard operating procedure, but the WH refused to act or issue an order to help save our people there. They watched and listened for 6 hours and did NOTHING.

MissMagnolia sums it up (post 15)

Immediately communicated when embassy under attack, satellites & drones looking at this while it happened & the ambassador & 3 others were killed. Hundreds knew this was going on, watched/listened for 6 hours while the consulate was under attack & decision-makers were being constantly updated and DID NOTHING.... then lied about it for 8 days. Biden KNEW this was not an intelligence failure and lied during the debate about it.

This interview is devastating.

THANKS for calling up a ping list!!! Not too many people seem to be online right now.

I have searched for a blog or journalist to pick this up and post, at least, a partial transcript. Hunts' own words are emotional, jarring, and utterly factual by virtue of his personal knowledge of standard operating procedure when an embassy is attacked. This wasn't a mob; it wasn't a crime. It was a premediated, surgical, jihadist strike against our embassy---by definition, an act of war.

I keep thinking of that tragic mother of one of the slain who has gone public saying Hillary, Biden, the President, Rice, and Panetta all had individual, personal conversations with her to reassure her they will get to the bottom of this. Panetta even clasped his two hands around her face, so heartfelt was he.

I am more disgusted and outraged than I have words to describe. Hunt said the same thing happened in Mogadishu, and we all remember how horrifying that scene was, but in this case 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.

Hunt said any military order would have had to originate from the WH, and there was none.
