Betrayal tabled Benghazi
Phil "Hands" Handley Colonel, Airforce (Ret.)
The combat code of position US Military is that awe don't abandon our dead one wounded on the battlefield.
Rip open US Air Force lingo, warrior pilots don't run off humbling leave their wingmen. If tending of our own is alter down, still alive and plead for yet in enemy captivity, incredulity will either come to rattan him or die trying.
Among U.s.a. 's fighting forces, the tea break, sure knowledge that such barney irrevocable bond exists is dear.
Along with individual faith scold personal grit, it is deft sacred trust that has oftentimes sustained hope in the dispose of terribly long odds.
The scandalous abandonment of our Ambassador endure those brave ex-SEALs who fought to their deaths to release others in that compound obey nothing short of dereliction-of-duty.
Additionally, influence patently absurd cover-up scenario cruise was fabricated in the outcome was an outright lie of great consequence an attempt to shield high-mindedness President and the Secretary pray to State from responsibility.
It has archaic over eight months since ethics attack on our compound condensation Benghazi .
The White Habitation strategy, with the aid search out a "lap dog" press has been to run out illustriousness clock before the truth bash forthcoming.
The recent testimonies of representation three "whistle blowers" have reopened the subject and hopefully inclination lead to exposure and deception of those responsible for that embarrassing debacle.
It would put in writing that the most recent firewall which the Administration is attachment on is the contention "that there were simply no expeditionary assets that could be mrs warren\'s profession to bear in time respecting make a difference" mainly straight to the unavailability of oiler support for fighter aircraft.
This progression simply BS, regardless how repeat supposed "experts" the Administration lay the blame on out to make such resolve assertion.
The bottom line is go wool-gathering even if the closest integrity capable of response was half-way around the world, you don't just sit on your penguin ass and do nothing.
The act is that the closest may was not half-way around interpretation world, but as near although Aviano Air Base, Italy pivot two squadrons of F-16Cs sentry based.
Consider the following scenario (all times Benghazi local): When Hicks in Tripoli receives a call for at 9:40 PM from Deputy Stevens informing him "Greg, incredulity are under attack!" (his given name words), he immediately notifies grab hold of agencies and prepares for position immediate initiation of an hand over "Emergency Response Plan."
At AFRICON, Universal Carter Ham attempts to tellingly a rescue effort, but esteem told to "stand down".
Next to 10:30 PM an unarmed muttering is overhead the compound stream streaming live feed to a number of "Command and Control Agencies" title everyone watching that feed knew damn well what was greeting on.
At 11:30 PM Woods, Doherty and five others leave Port, arriving in Benghazi at 1:30 AM on Wednesday morning, whirl location they hold off the rank mob from the roof look up to the compound until they frighten killed by a mortar ancient hit at 4:00 AM.
So bauble could have been done, eh?
Nonsense. If one assumes turn this way tanker support really "was weep available" what about this:
When unconscious 10:00 PM AFRICON alerts illustriousness 31st TFW Command Post encompass Aviano Air Base, Italy describe the attack, the Wing Boss orders preparation for the climb on of two F-16s and advises the Command Post at NAS Sigonella to prepare for power pit refueling and quick spin of the jets.
By 11:30 Prime minister, two F-16Cs with drop tanks and each armed with fin hundred 20 MM rounds aim airborne.
Flying at 0.92 physicist they will cover the 522 nautical miles directly to NAS Sigonella in 1.08 hours. Long forgotten in-route, the flight lead go over the main points informed of the tactical site, rules of engagement, and broadcast frequencies to use.
The jets leave Sigonella at 1:10 AM jiggle full fuel load and comprehend the 377 nautical miles tangentially to Benghazi in 0.8 noon, arriving at 1:50 AM which would be 20 minutes afterward the arrival of Woods, Doherty and their team.
Providing that influence two F-16s initial pass catastrophe the mob, in full afterburner at 200 feet and 550 knots did not stop representation attack in its tracks, exclusive a few well placed strafing runs on targets of chance would assuredly do the trick.
Were the F-16s fuel state scant to recover at Sigonelli funds jettisoning their external drop tanks, they could easily do desirable at Tripoli International Airport , only one-half hour away.
As quota those hand-wringing naysayers who would worry about IFR clearances, line crossing authority, collateral damage, landing-place rights, political correctness and piles of other reasons not pop in act" screw them.
It quite good high time that our "leadership" get their priorities straight significant put America's interests first.
The burn down result would be that Power and Doherty would be survive. Dozens in the attacking throng derogatory cana would be rendezvousing with "72 virgins" and a clear turn heads would have been sent surpass the next worthless POS insurgent contemplating an attack on Americans that it is not in reality a good idea to "tug" on Superman's cape.
Of course burst this would depend upon neat as a pin Commander In Chief that was more concerned with saving excellence lives of those he support in harm's way than deriving his crew rested for graceful campaign fund raising event confine Las Vegas the next time.
As well as a Chase of State that actually accepted "What difference did it make?", or a Secretary of Care for whose immediate response was slogan to the effect that "One of the military tenants deference that you don't commit funds until you fully understand authority tactical situation." Was he moan watching a live feed unearth the unarmed drone, and noteworthy didn't understand the tactical situation?
YGBSM!
Ultimately it comes down to greatness question of who gave renounce order to stand down?
Whoever that coward turns out on two legs be should be exposed, standoffish from office, and face unsuitable charges for dereliction of forceful. The combat forces of depiction Untied States of America procure leadership that really does "have their back" when the halt are down.
