@willpayton: I am talking about Benghazi where seven Americans were being held hostage by Islamic state and when asked repeatedly to form an immediate response team to rescue said hostages by Petraeus, Hilary and Obama repeatedly denied permission without reason. After getting fed up by their bullsh*t Pertraeus and several spec ops operatives went off books to stage a rescue. The rescue ended in failure resulting in the death of the entire team as well as the execution of all seven hostages.
Allow me to clarify. Pertraeus was able to respond nearly immediately but for an unknown reason Hilary as well as Obama would not allow it. Now 7 innocent Americans are dead.
Except that none of this is true.
First, it was not 7 Americans, it was 4.
Second, there were 7 investigations into the whole Benghazi thing, mostly led by Republicans who had every motivation to try to screw over Obama and Clinton, and yet all of them found exactly nothing. They all cleared Clinton and the administration of any wrongdoing.
Now you can believe whatever you read on Fox News or Breitbart or what you hear on talk radio. I'll believe the facts. For example, this is what the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence report on Benghazi had to say:
Finding #10: The CIA received all military support that was available. Neither the CIA nor DOD denied requests for air support. One CIA security officer requested a Spectre gunship that he believed was available, but his commanding officer did not relay the request because he correctly knew the gunship was not available.
This is not my opinion, this is what the report says:

And not only did a committee of mostly Republican (and the other investigations) clear Clinton and the administration of any wrongdoing, what you're claiming about Patraeus is also false. In fact he debunked these conspiracy theories while testifying to the committees.
