"This leaves no doubt military assets were offered and ready to go, and awaiting State Department signoff, which did not come,” Judicial Watch, a nonprofit government watchdog said in a statement." "The revelation appears to contradict testimony Defense Secretary Leon Panetta gave lawmakers in 2013, when he said there was no time to get forces to the scene in Libya, where four Americans were killed, including U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens."

The fact that General Ham and Admiral Gaouette were ready and said so cost them their jobs and both have been placed in a dark shadow since. Both had the tools close enough to intervene. Politicians committed treason. But that is just my tin foil wrapped opinion I guess as nothing has ever been done about it.
olddog There is nothing tin foil wrapped about your opinion. As usual, 0bama-Clinton lied and not only failed to do the right thing; they failed to do their job. \ It appears we also know why Ty Woods yelled "where the F*** is Spectre" and why they were illuminating targets with lasers. As most links embed the f word, I selected this one because it didn't. Doug Ross @ Journal: ERNST SHREIBER: What Ty Woods and Glen Doherty Should Have Done to Get the President's Attention
Just like the Pueblo insult. Assets were close enough to take down the NKs. Nobody in the political side thought the NKs would have the balls. So much for mis advisors. The Captain of the Pueblo requested scuttling charges be placed so he could sink the Pueblo if needed. DENIED.
At the Pueblo, did the assets stand down and a general and an admiral get fired? 4 Americans were thrown under the bus and abandoned to die. Now the Secretary of State who did not authorize a go is running for POTUS? I've read history repeats itself; I didn't know the repetitian would be so shaming.
By your post, as I do not know you from Adam, what else would I go by? If I was mistaken, I apologize. I was a war fighter and we believed someone would come for us. The fact 0bama-Clinton did not; crossed a line of no return with me.
Sorry I do. I also am quite knowledgeable about the USS Liberty and that Benedict Arnold's leg is buried as a hero while his body is that of a traitor. To remind others: LIBERTY! . Benedict Arnold's Leg | PBS As I said I do not know you; nor do you know me.
