That's interesting; I knew there were more witnesses but only vaguely remembered the one couple. It was twilight IIRC. I wonder if any of these clips haven't been deep-sixed? I felt horror for the people at first and can't remember when I came to doubt the official story. Also thought it was unlikely the Navy could have done it (not impossible) unless a rogue thing.

I can't say I'm certain it was a terrorist but I see these photos of those weapons in Libya, they look like big pointy grenades on broomsticks. I think what stupid govt lets people run aorund with those? But it wouldn't be too hard, well you know where I'm going with that. Aside from the more recent on the West Coast, there don't seem to have been any other incidents that could be attributable to missiles in the wrong hands.

It's only because of the witnesses I saw myself, in the early hours when a big story is breaking (I think more were at least mentioned) that I came to believe as I did. As things unfold, stories get "edited" but sometime the earliest versions are the correct ones.

Those would be RPG’s . They are ideal against non-moving , or slow moving vehicles , or stationary targets.
The accuracy and distance range is somewhat limited .

In Benghazi in the recent past ,there is a history of between 10,000 - 20,000 MANPADS / ‘Stinger’ missles.
These are guided missles that can track , alter course , and be ‘heat-seeking’ (engine exhaust) for aircraft , both commercial and military.
Those stockpiles of munitions and missles have fallen into the hands of fundamental Islamacists especially including al Qada .
Even the Benghazi story got edited by the State Dept. , with the assault being blamed on “the movie” that no one ever saw .
Enough said ..
