The KGB Oracle Forums General Public Discussion (SPECIAL ACCESS) KGB Political Debate Central Father of Navy SEAL killed in Benghazi

Wolfgang, you are making this analysis with a benefit of hindsight. Simple truth is that nobody knew what happened for DAYS after it, least while it was happening. Yes, we live in information age, but when you are dealing with war-torn hellholes you still have to wait for Pheidippides to show up.

Red, you finally went off the deep end into deranged territory. Take your meds.

If you can't behave in a somewhat civilized manner you will be asked to leave this forum.

You're absolutely right it's an Information age, they had real time video in the air during the attack. You just said it, so Obviously someone left their balls in their other golf bag in order to make a decision. Thanks for making my point for me.

You ether don't understand what "real time video" is or don't understand "they".

US undeniably has some impressive tech, but it is not impressive enough to know everything, everywhere and all the time.

You make a lot of assumptions to manufacture rage here. You assumptions are:

a) That accurate information about situation was known as it was happening. Reports I have read say that even people in the compound didn't know what was happening at the time. Way I understand it from reading reports is that most/all US casualties, including ambassador, were from diesel smoke inhalation in the safe room.

b) That accurate information actually was available to people in a position to make a decision.

c) That there was a course of action available that could have influenced the outcome.

I know conservatives like drastic military actions, but somehow I don't see carpet-bombing Benghazi, even to save an esteemed ambassador, is a viable course of action. Just consider implications of disproportional US response in already destabilized region would be.

I invite you to re-read forum rules . Feel free to ask questions if you have difficulties understanding them.

Yea, lord forbid we kill people that want to kill us, and yet if this storyline had been by repulicans you would be up in arms. Your an ass licker that seeks to find no fought with your own idealougue but seek out to attack others when they disagree with yours you self rightous bastard.

It is hard for me to fathom how you right wingers can single out this gentleman and patriot when at the same time you all ignore the total of 4,486 U.S. soldiers that were killed in Iraq.

George Bush was not impeached, tried as a criminal or any of what you are calling for when over 4000 times the lives were lost and lied about over and over.

You people amaze me.

If Obama made a bad descion based on bad intel, then so be it. But dont say one thing while doing anthoer. If after a congressinol investiagtion it comes back that everything was tried at the time so be it. If it comes back that due to budget constraints that they did not get extra secuirty then so be it. But if we are willing to waste millions of dollars on wither or not some one took steriods, then by the holy spaggti monster they can go over this and release the information.

We are not talking about Bush, we are talking about Obama. Dont forget dems voted for that war also. looking at the same intel that bush did. was bush played? possiblely, did bush back his SOD when he should have kicked him to the curb, yep.

I am also not calling for crimnal charges or that other horse shit, but an investgation is needed. IT will take months, and we will not find out till way after the election, but it does need to be started in ernest.
