Part of this saga is directly related to your comment. Monday morning quarterbacking is easy. The question becomes exactly how did anyone know at the time how long this situation would continue? It could have gone on for days. The response should have been ordered whether they were on time or not. The truth is they did not want to have to admit that Al Qaeda was not on the run but active.
I watched the news unfold during Benghazi and I kept thinking reinforcements were going to show up. Not only did we not show up but our leadership failed to respond in any way. To add insult to injury, the video was invented to deflect criticisms.
Per Hillary’s question of who you want to answer a 3:00 AM crisis phone call? NOT a Democrat. Democrats will fail us when faced with a crisis.
If you can't find a reason for zero to take out Stevens one likely scenario is that Stevens was a loose cannon. He was openly gay in the Mideast.He had recently turned to being a muslim and was so well connected throughout the mid- east zero had to either embrace him or kill him. Seems he did both. Embraced him through Hillary and then killed him.
