Consider that it is worse and more evil than simple abandonment of 4 men. When the order to "stand-down" was ordered there were more than 32 people at risk. That meant that all (4 + 32), if nothing was done, were at mortal risk.

Yes, yes, YES! I have been trying to get people to see that this much more than the deaths of the four whose corpses Hillary Clinton stood over and lied about. The whole station crew was condemned to death. It was merely good fortune that 32 of them survived because a few brave men defied orders and rode to the rescue - at the cost of their lives.

Obama and Clinton wanted them dead...it would have been easier to deal with the dead....

Yes, again. Obama and Clinton needed them dead. Dead men tell no tales.

I started off believing Benghazi was just about the election but more and more I'm coming to the conclusion that it is a toxic stew of three things: 1. Stevens was there, knowingly, arranging weapons transfers to al Qaeda in Syria, 2. Jarrett, Brennan, Rice and Obama had set up Stevens, unbeknownst to him, to be kidnapped so he could be exchanged for the blind sheik, and 3. electoral politics - the need for al qaeda to be defunct, the desire to have Obama be seen as 'rescuing' Stevens. Once it started to go sideways due to Woods and Doherty, the imperitive to cover up became all consuming.

I think your analysis is correct.

And that’s not good.

Mugawd, that was a good rollup.
