Where are you guys going to realize that people made the best decisions they could given the resources available?

"the drones weren't armed"
"there weren't logistics in place to fuel aircraft"

Spence, whose fault is this?
  • Send people into a known hotbed of terrorism.
  • When the terrorists make threats, those people ask for more security.
  • Not only is the request for more security denied, but the existing security is reduced.
  • And according
to you, there is literally zero addiitonal help in the region to send.

Does that sound like the SecState is supporting her people in the field, Spence?

What about the special forces in Tripoli that were told to stand down (according to justplugit)?

Spence, which is it? Were there no special forces to send, or were they available but told to stand down?

There are no consistent answers to this, which is why we should keep digging. I keep hearing conflicting things, I don't know what to believe. I'm not like you, I don't accept one side and reject the other side, in every scenario.
