Said Hicks, “if we had been able to scramble a fighter or aircraft or two over Benghazi as quickly as possible after the attack commenced, I believe there would not have been a mortar attack on the annex in the morning because I believe the Libyans would have split. They would have been scared to death that we would have gotten a laser on them and killed them.” Amazing. And not in a good way.

What an embarrassing mess. Disgraceful doesn't even begin to describe this. About the only thing additional you could do to make the situation worse is to laugh about it.
DC Tom Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 Imagine what kind of person it takes to call off troops to leave your own people for dead, and then lie about the entire thing to the country on TV and directly to the face of the victims' families. What an embarrassing mess. As is typical, the cover-up afterwards is far more damning than the actual error. Nothing is different from what I originally said: it's a failure of command and control, and intelligence. It happens. If it didn't happen, you wouldn't dump so much time and money into C3I, and trying to prevent it from happening. But you don't turn around and pretend it doesn't happen, and blame YouTube!
B-Man Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 A TROUBLED CAMPAIGN: Escalation: Hillary contradicts Benghazi families, denies blaming attacks on video at private meeting; Before we circle back to Hillary’s statement on ABC News’ This Week, let’s lay some groundwork first. During her sworn testimony before the Benghazi Select Committee in October, Hillary Clinton was confronted with evidence that she had a clear-eyed understanding of the nature of those attacks within hours of their occurrence. On the night of the attack, she sent an email to her daughter lamenting that several American “officers were killed in Benghazi by an Al Queda-like group.” We know that the lack in Libya had nothing to do with the film. It was a planned attack — not a protest.” That assessment was accurate. It reflected the terrible reality that US officials were able to ascertain “almost immediately,” according to the CIA director at the time. As I wrote last month, “State Department documents [also] confirm this. And Amb. Chris Stevens’ second-in-command testified that the obscure online film was a ‘non event‘ on the ground in Libya.” Yet by the time the murdered Americans’ flag-draped coffins arrived home several days later, the Obama administration was in full-blown election season spin mode, which entailed muddying the waters on whether the deadly raid was, in fact, a premeditated terrorist attack. At the now-infamous Andrews Air Force base ceremony on September 14, 2012, Hillary Clinton told grieving family members that their loved ones had been murdered by a bloodthirsty mob incited by an online anti-Islam video. Four different relatives of three separate victims have publicly shared that recollection, including one who jotted down notes shortly after the meeting: “I gave Hillary a hug and shook her hand. And she said ‘we are going to have the film maker arrested who was responsible for the death of your son,'” recalls Tyrone Woods’ father, reading directly from his written record from that day. Sean Smith’s mother and uncle remember the same thing, as does Glen Doherty’s sister. Now watch Hillary’s performance from this past Sunday. Note how anchor George Stephanopoulos, to his credit, asks a very specific question, preceded by clips of statements from several of the aforementioned family members: Did you tell the families that the attack was about the film? Answer: No. My Townhall colleague Justin Holcomb has addressed her subsequent “fog of war” dissembling, which is belied by the fact that she consistently managed to get it right in private discussions, while peddling a very different tale in public. But let’s ignore that part of her answer for the moment. She was asked a direct question: Did she, or did she not, tell those family members that the Internet film was responsible for their loved ones’ deaths? She says she did not. This is a direct contradiction of very explicit memories shared on the record by multiple people who have far less incentive to lie than, say, a truth-challenged politician seeking power. This should be a serious problem for Hillary Clinton. The media spent an enormous amount of time fact-checking Donald Trump’s false claim about watching “thousands” of Muslims dancing in the streets of New Jersey on live television after 9/11. Here we have the presumptive Democratic nominee essentially arguing that Benghazi victims’ relatives are either forgetful simpletons, or liars.
