It has been claimed that CIA agents on the ground during the deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi twice asked for permission to help Ambassador Chris Stevens and twice were told to stand down.
Furthermore sources present during the deadly six-hour assault have said that a desperate last request for military assistance once the CIA themselves came under attack was denied, even though elite counter-terrorism units were only two hours away.
And it has been claimed there was full communication between the CIA annex in Benghazi and the U.S. military, casting further doubts on the Obama administration's assertion that there wasn't enough information to deploy forces - deepening the crisis over their handling of the attack on September 11th and its aftermath

Right on! They did this to the military people when Bill Clinton was in office as well. Strange thing is: I don’t ever remember them disarming the U.S. Military forces when Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George W. Bush were in office; or even other presidents before them, did they?
After Bill Clinton, I never thought this would be done to our American forces again. Or for that matter, any president would ever be allowed to dishonor our citizens again! Then 8 years after Bill Clinton left office, another president gets in and does the some of the same things and gets away with it again! It seems so many people are suckers for smooth-talking, lying rascals; then the rest of us have to live with them too!

Several reports like this ABC one came out around Sept. 13th, apparently based on emails sent by the contractors to buddies at home -

ABC says they spoke to Glen a month BEFORE the attack and he said this
...In an interview with ABC News last month, Glen Doherty, a 42-year-old former Navy SEAL who worked as a contractor with the State Department, said he personally went into the field to track down so-called MANPADS, shoulder-fired surface-to-air missiles, and destroy them....
I don't believe that the US production of Stinger missiles - designed here in Tucson - is high enough to "lose" 20,000.
