Too funny, you have an entire group of people here creating their own narrative as to what "may" have happened and completely disregarding the General who was in charge AND the Senate Committee (dominated by Dems).
All to protect the single most dishonest President the Nation has ever had.
yawn: "After reading the cable, Gen. Carter F. Ham, then the commander of the United States Africa Command, called Mr. Stevens to ask if the embassy in Tripoli needed additional military personnel, potentially for use in Benghazi, but Stevens told Ham it did not, the report said. A short time later, General Ham reiterated the offer at a meeting in Germany, and Stevens again declined, the report said."

you have not been paying attention Dante....
Stevens turned down MILITARY personnel. He did not feel it appropriate for community relations purposes to have a strong US Military presence in Benghazi.
However, He several times requested extra SECURITY personnel from the Department of State.....and unfortunately, someone right below the SoS did not feel it necessary to bring it to the attention of the SoS and, instead, simply denied the repeated requests.
Pay attention Dante.....PAY ATTENTION!!!!!!!
