The reports are that Biden was in the room with Obama watching what was going down and discussing what to do.
I just wonder what Biden’s son Beau thinks about the non-action his father went along with.

Why would the President and VP be involved in an operational decision about saving Americans?
This decision should have been made at the LOWEST level not the highest level. Any American military man should have had the Authority and Initiative to make the decision to save other Americans without involving the chain of command above. This functional paralysis in decision making is because too many members of the chain of command are more interested in saving their careers than saving Americans. This is how wars are lost. The lower level participants needed to make decisions and carry them through. Right or wrong a poor decision is better than no decision at all.
