Real time video was two drones in flight over the attack. It was real time enough that one drone flew on station until it had to return for fuel at which point a second was deployed to cover the situation. "They" is the situation room at the White House.


Source please. I want you to establish that WH was indeed aware of what was going on as it was happening.

False. The ambassador was beaten and sodomized. One of the SEALs was killed on the roof while attempting to suppress the attackers.


Official report I read says that SEAL died at second compound to a RPG attack and ambassador died in a safe room to diesel fuel smoke inhalation. Where is "sodomizing" coming from? What is your source? Why do you think your source is more credible than official report?

Source. Who are these "superiors". What options were available to these superiors that could meaningfully change the situation?

Again, Kaotic it is very easy to manufacture outrage and conspiracy theories, especially with a benefit of hindsight. Your position "don't trust official report, it all lies" need to be substantiated in some factual evidence to carry any weight. FOX news and grainy, who-knows-what-you-are-looking-at videos don't count - they are too easy to manufacture, and there is plenty political gain to manufacture scandal around this.
