Ann, if Petreas didn’t get the call, then he didn’t get the call.
Check out this thread concerning a call in to the Rush Limbaugh show. Perhaps you’ve seen it. If it’s true Petreas is merely explaining who made the command decision.
That doesn’t seem to be out of line to me.

HE took a job under OBAMA......ALL I NEED TO KNOW THAT HE":S A SKANK!!
” This is an amazing phone call from a retired Lt. Col. and Special Operations Planner for 15 years who knows the inside baseball of what goes on in the White House. He told Rush that protocol dictates that as soon as the situation room got the email about the Benghazi attack, someone marched up to the president and informed him of the attack. He says it’s a bald faced lie if they say otherwise.
He also says that it was the president who gave the order at his 5pm meeting that day to not respond to the Libya attack in progress.”
Obama had to know, and had to have rendered a decision.
I don’t know who else was in the loop, but this much is clear. Thanks for the info.
If you listened to what the Ex-mil guy was saying, then you’d know that CIA Director Petreas had no say. It was a POTUS call. Witness General Ham who said ‘no way’ against orders and was fired seconds later during the assult.
Petreas like all other command personel in all Defense positions got the “call’ - he, like the others, got the Flash traffic and watched in real time - that includes Obama, Biden, Clinton, and the weasel Penetta.
Obama made the command decision not to intervene. All others had to follow or like Ham be dismissed on the spot.
There is a larger game afoot, and will likely unfold in the following months. With the reelection of Obama, all will be revealed. And we won’t like it - the US is expendable ...
