Benghazi. The “Stand Down” order

“Defense Sec. Leon Panetta ordered U.S. forces to be deployed to rescue our personnel in Benghazi. They were mobilized to a staging area in Italy and were ready to go.” -James Barrett/ Daily Wire reported. “The damning reasons for this failure include political concerns about how the Libyan government wanted our military personnel dressed.” The State Dept. “insisted the U.S. military respond to Libya in civilian clothes and that it not use vehicles with United States markings”, both conditions from the Libyan government, who “did not want an identifiable U.S. military presence on the streets of Libya.”….”Sec. Clinton and others, overrode the order to send a rescue team because they mistakenly thought the attack was over.”-Daily Wire. 6/28/16.

Conclusion: We are The United States of America. We are the strongest country on the face of the earth, in the history of time. Our diplomats and security people were being killed. Americans in Benghazi were not safe, until extracted from Libya. Given the circumstances, we didn’t need to ask Libya for permission to come into their country. We go to their rescue. That’s what we do and how we roll. To be stopped on the runway because we weren’t dressed properly; because our vehicles had American markings…this is not us. This is not how we respond. To “mistakenly conclude” the battle was over when Clinton had all the telecommunications technology at her fingertips, is just a blatant lie. / Done
