This whole thing just stinks.
And Congress need to get to the bottom of this right away.
Here are the answers we need.
1. Where were all of the C-130 Air Force gunships the night of the attack? I am pretty sure one was orbiting over the site that night and it's firepower was not deployed.
2. Why was the dead Seal/security guard told he would get close air support, and then the fire mission was countermanded?
The only reason that brave man put a laser designator on the mortor site outside the embassy, was , because he was told close air support was committed.
HE WOULD NOT HAVE DESIGNATED A TARGET UNLESS HE WAS TOLD THAT CLOSE AIR SUPPORT HAD BEEN GIVEN AN ORDER TO ATTACK THAT TARGET.
The congress needs to find the aircrew of that C-1
