approx 1050 miles from airbase Aviano to Benghazi. Commercial airliner time would be two hours. They had the time.

Then BS alert!!!!

Wonder if there was Obama’s concern about angering our allies or soon to be or we were hoping “would be our allies.” He looks at America as being evil.

Or maybe we were trading weapons however I don't see how that would have prevented us from rescuing the Americans.

Who knows. However, as usual someone is fibbing.

scatter.
