A drone operator called into Sean Hannitys radio show on Monday
This is a MUST LISTEN
He was reportedly one of the men who flew drones over the attack location in Benghazi. He wants to know why Congress hasnt attempted to contact him.

My take - This guy is NOT the drone operator/camera guy.
He is just an informed (military/government) person that knows there is a drone operator that has an interesting and informative perspective on the course of events of 9/11/2012 in Benghazi.
Yes, he should contact Sen. Lindsey Graham. Graham will protect him. I’ve never seen that guy so serious about anything before. Could be because he is an active duty Navy JAG officer himself.
“Even if the drone was not armed, it could have been crashed on the rebel positions.”
I’m pretty sure the military has a standing order against purposefully crashing equipment that costs billions of dollars.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told lawmakers Wednesday that there was no monitor, there was no real time of the attacks in Benghazi, Libya.
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) said Deputy Assistant Secretary for Diplomatic Security Charlene Lamb testified she had actually witnessed this, the attack, in real-time on a monitor.
At any time did you see the initial attack on a monitor with the president? Rohrbacher asked.
Congressman, there was no monitor, there was no real time. We got the surveillance videos some weeks later, that was the first time we saw any video of the attack, Clinton said in testimony before the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. There was a misunderstanding I think perhaps she was talking to [diplomatic security] people trying to understand what was going on.
Lamb was placed on administrative leave late last year, along with two other State Department officials. She told the House Oversight Committee in October that When the attack began, a diplomatic security agent working in the Tactical Operations Center alerted the annex U.S. quick reaction security team stationed nearby from that point on, I could follow what was happening in almost real-time.
.... Defense Secretary Leon Panetta subsequently told reporters there was no real-time information about what was happening on the ground for the U.S. military to intervene.
My take - This guy IS the drone operator/camera guy.
(I work with UAV operators and have one in the family, so I have some insight on this).
I defer to your knowledge/experience.
