Amazing stuff this from Snopes,I have read a similar account over the years of researching Benghazi,this one is pretty close to the others although this is from a cousin of Stevens,pretty good source.

“Written by a cousin of Ambassador Stevens, a US Navy Chaplain, Senior Pastor Ret’d
Here is my story. A week out the Embassy in Tripoli began receiving multiple tips about an Al Queda cell in the area planning an attack on 9/11 in response to the killing of Bin Laden. For the next several days, the state dept and WH were asked for a security force and were denied at least six times. Ambassador Stevens and his team were given the all clear that the Consulate in Benghazi was safe and there was no need for a security force other than his 3 personal guards (one being my cousin) and a few Libyans who were not armed. Then the attack and murders occurred.
Immediately the WH claimed it was a protest gone bad over a you tube video. Obama made a quick speech in the Rose Garden on Sept.12 before catching a plane to Vegas to campaign. He made a generic statement at the end of his speech after placing the blame on an overheated protest over the video. He said “No act of terror will shake the resolve of America. Later that day and over the next 2 days, the liberal media began saying Ambassador Stevens and the other 3 men died of smoke inhalation. This was not the case.
Out of respect for my cousin, I’m not going to be specific about his murder. However Ambassador Stevens was brutally murdered. His genitals were cut off, he was sodomized and beaten and cut and stabbed and burned. He was drug thru the streets and left for dead. This is eyewitness testimony of a local Dr. who found the Ambassador in a ditch and tried to save his life. He had no idea who he was. The other 3 men, including my cousin, met similar fates. And deaths due to smoke inhalation is a 100% fabricated LIE. The next week I drove my aunt and Uncle and 2 others to DC to receive his body. We met with Hillary, Panetta, and Susan Rice. ALL of whom apologized and said it was a protest gone bad over a video and exited the area. Next, Obama entered with the same story and didn’t apologize and wasn’t sympathetic. My aunt cried to this man and all he did was hand her flowers and walk away. I tried to get his attention, but didn’t. I got upset and yelled liar to him, he kept walking. Then a secret service agent grabbed my arm and led me to a room where I was held till the proceedings were over.
America, I saw firsthand how cold this man is. What kind of liar he is. Most of you haven’t a clue about this tyrant and yet you support him. And act like every word he says is Gospel. These murders and the fast and furious cover ups make Watergate look like a kid who told his bff’s secret to the class.

Another account I read that always stuck with me is that Stevens was finally brought to eh Benghazi hospital or clinic and while being treated,they tried to save his life he was nearly dead,he was given a “hot shot” and died.
NO one dares bring it up but I think it’s part of the story that the extra brutal treatment of Stevens was because he was a known gay and didn’t try to hide it.This never bodes well with whacko muslims.It’s exactly what they do to gays.

“...the cries for help from the brave civilians and soldiers of Benghazi were many and urgent throughout the hours of attack. But the response was ... silence. ”
You know, satellite video & SatPhone could have helped direct missile strikes. Furthermore, with the one guy lasing the target on the roof until he died, the coordinates would have been known. Again, launch a missile. It works on all those strikes 0bama launches.
I still can’t quite figure out why the stand down orders.And there were many.
For some reason either through mass incompetence or other reasons either they wanted someone dead,could have been Stevens, or they were protecting something else(cia smuggling op) by letting the terror types destroy the place.Still a mystery to me.
That is an important point that I have often made to other people. They were quite willing to let over 35 die, not just the few that actually ended up dying.
The DOJ/FBI did not go there to investigate and gather remaining paper for OVER 3 weeks.
BTW, the movie, “13 Hours”, which tells the story of Benghazi is very good and is available to be seen for free, along with 50,000 other movies and TV series at Putlocker.IS.

I have a feeling that neither under Reagan nor Trump this would have happened, and if by chance our help may have been too late these camel drivers responsible never would have seen another day. The law of redistribution may at times move slowly, but the day will come when Hillary gets what she disserves.
IMHO, Benghazi was a complex op with who knows how many objectives by the regime. We may never know.Its what they do on a daily basis.All part of taking the country apart.
There was a local militia who was supposed to guard the complex but apparently some were secret members of the attacking group.
However, I read one report by one of the militiamen who stood and fight, that they held out for a while (also taking an unknown number of casualties), before finally having to retreat.
We need much more documented information on this aspect of the defense of the Ambassador’s office and the other part of the complex, and by who.
I like your lingo... and your tagline.
(My kin all hail from La Crosse.)
Pssst! Morsi, we’ll get your Sheikh released, kidnap our Ambassador and we’ll make it look like a trade. We just can’t release the Sheikh, it would hurt us in the next election. Its the only way we can get him to you. Don’t worry the American people are too stupid to catch on. (LOL.......... You think not?)
Over the past few years since day one of Benghazi I have covered probably several hundred links just like this one tonight.Read account after account.I knew the security was local but always thought they were compromised and left as soon as the fighting started. You just opened the door to something new. Thanks very much.
Benghazi is the story that never ends.
Not Only Did They Lie; They Watched Them Die.
E-mails show that Obama knew what happened in Benghazi as it happened. Took no action to save lives--and then lied about it. Impeach the traitor.
no... the weapons trafficking was separate.....that's a false flag rumor that could be lived with... the real plan was to have the AMB kidnapped and traded for Gitmo guys just before the election...
When the CIA men disobeyed the stand down orders and fought back the captors thought it was a double-cross so they killed the AMB...... Hence the administration had to use traitor Beau Bergdahl to fulfill their part of the deal - or the terrorist would have spilled the beans....
Do your own research...it's the only explanation that makes sense from all of the hearings..... Nobody knew why extra requested security was denied several times BEFORE the attack... it was to make sure it was a clean kidnapping... Woods and Doherty and 10 or more others screwed it up by going against orders and trying to resuce Stevens..

Locals were guarding the compound.
40 plus years ago I learned to watch my local guards extremely carefully. When they didn’t show for duty or couldn’t be found I went to the best bunker on base with a portable radio and all the ammo I could put my hands on. After the third event the newbees were following my lead John Wayne syndrome or not.
Benghazi ping, thanks to Lucy T.
Let Republicanprofessor know if you want on or off this ping list.
A criminal act that cost the lives of Americans - and no one’s talking about it because Hillary’s at the forefront.
