Let's Talk About This "Stand Down" Order Thing....

[Antares]

Mr. Conaway. Were you a~are of Lieutenant Colonel Gibson's
activities on the 11th? Were you in communication with him?

General Ham. I was not in direct communication with him. I had
met him previously_, but as the events unfolded in Tripoli and Benghazi
I was not in direct contact with him.

Lieutenant Colonel Gibson

This is the Officer in charge of the team wanting to go to Benghazi from Tripoli.

Mr. Conaway. Did he receive an order to not go from anybody in
your chain of command?

General Ham.He did not. t. I didn't know that night. I know now
that Lieutenant Colonel Gibson requested approval to move to Benghazi
in the morning of the 12th. And it is understandable to me why he would
want to do that. What military people want to do is move to the sound
of the guns. The decision was no_, you have a mission in Tripoli.

Mr. Conaway. Whose decision was that?

General Ham. Rear Admiral Losey_, as the Commander of Special
Operations Command Africa.

So you see as usual what is happening is a parsing of words by the Left.
They were indeed told NOT to go.

 

[Antares]

Now as I understand it the Team in Lybia were the only line of defense for our personnel in Tripoli, so I agree with the order.

We could not leave them unprotected.

But they were INDEED told to stay in Tripoli.

 

[Mr. H.]

What dif....

ah, forget it.

By Obama so he could get re-elected?

Nope.

 

[Antares]

By Admiral Losey, but I do not know who his direct chain of command was.
But the Team was told NO,there is nothing you can do to change that.

No, to slander the good name of Amb. Stevens:

I still don't find -- I have not found the intelligence that would indicate that an attack in
Benghazi was imminent and that subsequent security should have been
deployed. And I think the -- in my mind the most compelling argument
to that conclusion is that the one individual in the U.S. Government
who knew more about security and intelligence in Libya and in Benghazi
specifically than anyone else was Ambassador Stevens. And I am
convinced, knowing him, while I don't think he was particularly
concerned about his own safety, I am absolutely convinced that had he
any indication that an attack was likely or imminent in Benghazi he
would not have put others at risk by traveling to Benghazi that evening.

HAM.

Most far left Obama drones can not read and comprehend anything that is not from a far left blog site.

Orders to not go? I've never even heard of issuing orders to a commander to not engage in a military intervention in a foreign country.

Another canard takes flight where it will undoubtedly bounce around the Internet (again) sooner or later with charges of President Obama preventing a rescue of some kind.

Then? Uh, talk of Impeachment, perhaps?

Get over your partisanship and yourself kid.

That is the testimony of General Ham to Congress.

What you think in no way matters, the General is telling you what happened that night.

The Team that wanted to go was told no, they were told that because THEY were the only defense of our people in Tripoli.

Stupid ignorant racist hater dupes believe anything against Obama...after 5 1/2 years of bs Pub propaganda.

No, soldiers can't do any dumbass, worthless thing they want..duh.

here's a question for you - if he was not 'ordered' not to go what would he have done?

He was told to stay where he was, so he did.

I can't answer for him about any "what ifs".

do you think without an order to go he would have gone? moved his soldiers from their ordered duty to another location?

In my opinion no.

The Military is pretty rigid that way.

obviously. so his request was denied. was he asked to sit around and do nothing with his people?

Well as the General said, they were locked and loaded because they already had a mission,it was to be ready to defend American personnel in Tripoli, thats why they were told no.

in any way do you view that as being told to 'stand down'?
