Now that is an interesting wrinkle. I wonder what other information will start coming out now. Maybe the main stream media will even start investigating.

” were being used to make calls to the attackers’ higher ups.
SO... the CIA knows who these higher ups are.

Don’t count on it. The main story on ABC News Radio today was how many Americans are overweight.

Maybe the main stream media will even start investigating. Only if it trends on twitter.

"Stahl also contended that given his crews alert status and location, they could have reached Benghazi in time to have played a role in rescuing the victims of the assault, and ferrying them to safety in Germany, had they been asked to do so. 'We were on a 45-day deployment to Ramstein air base,' he told Fox News. 'And we were there basically to pick up priority missions, last-minute missions that needed to be accomplished.'
'You would've thought that we would have had a little bit more of an alert posture on 9/11,' Stahl added. 'A hurried-up timeline probably would take us [an] hour-and-a-half to get off the ground and three hours and fifteen minutes to get down there. So we could've gone down there and gotten them easily.'
To me, this is a smoking gun! Proof there WERE resources available to rescue, if not Stevens, at least the other three men who died at the Consulate.

You can be sure that the alphabet news, weekly magazines and e-zines have circulated a memo to their new swriters that this topic has been determined to be haram. Ḥarām (Arabic: حَرَام ḥarām) or Haraam is an Arabic term meaning sinful. In Islamic Jurisprudence, haram is used to refer to any act that is forbidden by Allah

start investigating?
IIRC, CNN has reporters on the ground the day after -- who were probably more interested in covering up anything that might taint the Administration. The FBI didn't get there for 2 weeks -- because the situation was deemed too dangerous.

Probably obama phones they picked up when on welfare in Dearborn.

Major Stahl also says at the end of the interview that they had requested a C-130 be on standby at the airport(Tripoli?) a month prior to 9/11.

In the interview, Major Stahl also says that the guys on the ground knew that there was a living security guard at Benghazi who was on the take and had given information about escape routes, the safe house(room), etc. to the attackers.

Interesting interview - also heard that a request was made one month prior to the attack to have a plane standing by during the period for possible evacuation, but it was “denied” - by whom, for why not explained - maybe Gowdy can find out....

Let Republicanprofessor know if you want on or off this ping list.

Not only that but at or near the end of this powerful interview, Major Stahl said that the Ambassador and others had asked to have a C-130 on standby for the anniversary of 9/11 one YEAR earlier!
