I have read and listened to all of this Benghazi stuff now that has come out and I am seriously scratching my head. First it's an internet video cause it (when Jeff Dunham has been making much worse ones for years with Achmed the Dead Terrorist), then Hillary emails her daughter it was Al-Qaeda then the whole stand down order....
WTF is that? WTF were they thinking. They had assets in the area, they had FAST teams and Delta operators in the planes ready to go and they were debating crap like how their uniforms might offend the Libyans?!?!?! First of all from the people I have talked to operators from Delta wear a plain uniform with not distinctive markings, basically just a plan BDU with no patches, flags etc. or black tactical gear with no markings. Plus they do not follow the militaries grooming and dress standards so they can blend in to local areas and also they barely ever wear a uniform on base. The FAST teams are in BDU's with their names, rank and American flag and maybe a Ranger tab on their arms. The Delta Unit was created during the Iranian Hostage Crisis to retake the Embassy and for counter terrorism operations. Hell, their Unit is more secretive then the SEALS. The FAST teams are elite US Marine Special Forces teams whole purpose is to recapture an Embassy or US facility on foreign soil or a Nuclear Navy Ship.
How in the f**k is a blank uniform offensive, and frankly who cares! We were under attack on US soil.
Also according to the former Supervisory Agent over the President's protection detail Daniel Bongino who has protected two Presidents, the Pope during his visit, numerous dignitaries and been assigned to Embassies before the President's visit on the advance team said they always have an emergency plans for situations like this and their backup plans have backup plans.
So why did it happen? We know the answer. Why was nothing done? We also know the answer but what we don't know the answer to is why haven't people been held accountable? I was excited when Trey Gowdy was announced to head the commission, I figured he would get things done and hold people accountable. What the hell is the hold up? How can the Butcher of Benghazi be running for President? She was Secretary of State, she was in the War room with Obama and the Embassies fall under her jurisdiction.
