It is only through the courageous efforts of those on the ground in Libya and the Grace of God, we did not lose the entire Benghazi group of over 30 people.
No more help was being sent by the criminally incompetent fools in Washington. They had stood our military down and had written the Benghazi people off. Instead of rescue and relief efforts, they washed their hands of the situation and made excuses. It is conceivable the muddled situation could have gone on a lot longer. If it had, the State Department and CIA people in Benghazi were toast. There was no "Plan B" to save them.
The entire Middle East was in flames at this time. Why wasn't our military all over the region on full Red Alert and ready to launch? Instead, it appears it was business as usual and everyone at the overseas bases had headed off early to Happy Hour.
Amen ... We were Ready ... it is as it was ... when the order came of Stand Down.
