The administration claims the attack went on for 6 hours
Why didn't the CIC order immediately air and ground support from USN positions in the Mediterranean?
Maybe we couldn't have saved the lives of Stephens and the others but at least Obama could have said we did everything we could.
Instead of a month later claiming "we will find the perps and bring them to justice" - we had all the perps assembled on the night of the attack in a single location, we could have been on site within an hour or two and wiped them all out where they stood.
I do not understand why we did not do this - anyone else?
Why didn't the CIC order immediately air and ground support from USN positions in the Mediterranean?I agree with you completely.
See my post at #87
But the reason is clear. They did NOT want to stop this.
