wdmso, you’re correct that a 24 hour response time would not have helped those fighting in Benghazi. But the closest help wasn’t 24 hours away, it was no further than Italy.

If troops are a 1 hour flight away, then there’s no reason why it has to take 24 hours to deliver them. Regardless of political party, a president shouldn’t put people in harms way if it’s not possible to get them help. it’s not acceptable for it to take 24 hours to pull
off a one hour flight, not when lives are at stake. Work out the system ahead of time.

You disagree?
