Evidence that we actually had an AC 130 available, and possibly an armed drone? And we watched our people get killed? And we did nothing about it while they died? And this went on for 6 hours while we did nothing?

AC-130U Gunship was on-scene in Benghazi, Obama Admin refused to let it fire

This is treason.

A much more detailed confirmation from a Delta operator:

Having spent a good bit of time nursing a GLD (ground Laser Designator) in several garden spots around the world, something from the report jumped out at me.

One of the former SEALs was actively painting the target. That means that Specter WAS ON STATION! Probably an AC130U. A ground laser designator is not a briefing pointer laser. You do not “paint” a target until the weapons system/designator is synched; which means that the AC130 was on station.

Only two places could have called off the attack at that point; the WH situation command (based on POTUS direction) or AFRICOM commander based on information directly from the target area.​

The designator will not work without the plane overhead.

Make sure you read that link… it leaves open the idea that one of the Predators may have also been armed.

As the story says they were syncing that laser with something. If not SPECTRE than one of those drones was armed. Something. In the middle of a fire fight, a Navy SEAL does not put down his weapon and paint a target for grins and chuckles. He had a reason. Of course he had no way of knowing the Chicken-Shit-In-Chief would deny all help and sacrifice 4 brave men for political gain.

Thank you Mr. Obama. Where is Harry when we need him? Now there was a Democrat I could respect.

I have never heard of a GLD being used without an aerial asset on station either, but there seems to be some legitimate
confusion about whether or not lasing was actually happening, which is why I said to read ALL the updates.
Update #4 makes me want to hold the boiling oil until more data is available.

If the original story is correct someone in the White House or Africom needs to be tried for dereliction of duty, murder
(4 counts), and treason. Conversely, should it turn out to have been an error in reporting, as suggested by #4, we need
to hold the anger and boiling oil in abeyance. We need more information to know which course of action to follow.
