“unnamed officials suggested that no amount of security would have mattered in Libya, not even a detachment of US Marines.”
The village idiot is being used as the source of this crap. Unnamed officials have no cred so this is just BS.
Actually, I would ask that question of SecState Hillary(!) Clinton — a notorious hater of anyone in uniform — and the other DoS weenies, including our ambassador to Egypt Anne Patterson and UN ambassador Susan Rice.
That Marines should be assigned to these hot spots is a no brainer . . . and Marines should be armed to the teeth. They should NOT be under the control of the DoS morons.
CNN didn’t find the journal until 4 days later.
Plenty of time for the CIA (or KGB or...) to manufacturer a journal in handwriting that is close enough to Stevens handwriting to pass muster.
No, Marines could not have stopped assault, not without live rounds in their guns.
Occam’s razor says no.
Adn your point is??? or are you just playing with your balls?
I would assume that when Stevens’ family gets the journal they will know if it is his writing or not. And writing style.
