Shame ! Americans Left to Die in Benghazi 3 Requests for Aid Denied

We need to see some court martial's happen and quick. Fox News is reporting that three request for military aid were made by the consulate and all three requests were denied. Former Navy SEAL's Tyrone Woods disobeyed orders to "stand down" and went to the aid of Ambassador Chris Stevens.
Woods and at least two others ignored those orders and made their way to the consulate which at that point was on fire. Shots were exchanged. The rescue team from the CIA annex evacuated those who remained at the consulate and Sean Smith, who had been killed in the initial attack. They could not find the ambassador and returned to the CIA annex at about midnight.
At that point, they called again for military support and help because they were taking fire at the CIA safe house, or annex. The request was denied. There were no communications problems at the annex, according those present at the compound. The team was in constant radio contact with their headquarters. In fact, at least one member of the team was on the roof of the annex manning a heavy machine gun when mortars were fired at the CIA compound. The security officer had a laser on the target that was firing and repeatedly requested back-up support from a Spectre gunship, which is commonly used by U.S. Special Operations forces to provide support to Special Operations teams on the ground involved in intense firefights. The fighting at the CIA annex went on for more than four hours -- enough time for any planes based in Sigonella Air base, just 480 miles away, to arrive. Fox News has also learned that two separate Tier One Special operations forces were told to wait, among them Delta Force operators.

  1. I was in and out today and only heard snatches but what I heard was devastating. That the MSM is ignoring this and that the White House refused help is absolutely craven. May they get what they deserve.
