A preview by Benghazi security officer Kris “Tanto†Paronto of 13 Hours, the block-buster Michael Bay film that premieres on Thursday, raises dramatic new questions about the refusal by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to authorize a military rescue of the besieged U.S. diplomatic facility and the nearby CIA Annex on Sept 11-12, 2012.
In a presentation at a conference organized by the Maryland Citizen Action Network last weekend, Paronto revealed that two AC-130H “Spectre†gunships were “on call†that night, both within range of Benghazi.
One of them was a six-hour flight away, co-located with a U.S. special operations team in Djibouti.
The other was at Naval Air Station Sigonella, in Sicily. “That’s a 45-minute flight,†Paronto said.
The Spectre gunship with its 25mm rapid-fire gatling guns, its 40 mm precision Bofors gun, and its 105mm canon is “good in urban warfare because you have little collateral damage,†Paronto explained.

Paronto discusses Petraeus’ affair as “suspect.” 33:00
iOS something ELSE was going on and Petraus chose the affair route rather than expose whatever it was.
Well, Hillary’s side kick is a muslim and her mother heads up the Women’s Brotherhood. What can we expect if Hillary wins the Whitehouse?
He was shipping arms to Syria, the next theater of operations in the BO/HC/CIA Operation Arab Spring. He was expendable.
After a first murder serial killers escalate in their practices, just sayin’.
Maybe he can make her so angry she strokes out right there on stage, I’d actually pay to watch that.
You are welcome SF. I usually leave something when there and will do so with you in mind the next time I do.
Soldiers at MacDill's CentCom had time to book a commercial flight at Tampa International Airport, fly to Benghazi, and take a taxi to the outpost... before the 13 hours were up. Clinton and Obama's liars look like fools... But there's enough liberal elite liars to fool the press... (takes only one half-wit and the press is on board)
Interesting.
I read it here first, within hours.
At last there is published documentation.
Thank you.
