Another thing weird about the "looters" explanation is that the embassy and annex took an assualt from some 150 people with small arms, mortars and rpgs, some 60-70 of whom met their demise under fire from our guys and we're supposed to believe the "looters" decided to emerge from safety and run toards all of that, then wade into the line of fire of either the terrorists or our guys - soon enough during or after the battle to find the ambassador still barely alive?

Those're some bold "looters" there.

The attack on the first compound only lasted about an hour until Ty Woods and his men rescued the five survivors and took them to the annex compound. The attackers were dispersed by Ty Woods and the people he brought.

The annex came under fire almost immediately after they got back there. I don't think any mortar rounds were fired on the first compound and most of the fighting happened at the second. That's probably where most, if not all, the jihadis were killed.
