It was the station chief in Cairo was the only reference I ever heard about who stopped the requests for more security.

No, DAS Lamb admitted as much in the hearing. Beyond her no answers were forthcoming from her or Ambassador Kennedy who is her direct boss.

Because so many people have said the rescue was “denied”. But .. in fact nothing was ever said because it doesn’t have to be said. If the order doesn’t come - the CBA did not get signed - it’s that cut and dried.

I completely agree with that and did not say that a rescue was denied.

AND ONLY OBAMA CAN SIGN IT.

Yes, you're just repeating to me what I made very clear and was the main point of my post.

Sorry if I implied you said anything about a rescue being denied .. I meant to say that I had read several posts where other people had mentioned “the rescue was denied”.

Okay .. are we good now ..??
