Benghazi 10 years later: ’13 Hours’ survivor reflects on deadly battle, says US hasn’t learned from mistakes

FOX:

Between bursts of machine gun and AK-47 fire, Mark “Oz” Geist and Tyrone Woods talked about their children. Geist’s daughter was seven months old, and Woods’ third son had been born shortly before his deployment to Libya, Geist said.

“We’re talking about our kids and the next thing you know, you’re getting attacked again almost simultaneously,” he told Fox News, smiling wryly at the memory.

The Islamist militant group Ansar al-Sharia attacked the U.S. diplomatic outpost and CIA annex in Benghazi, Libya, on Sept. 11, 2012. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, Department of State employee Sean Smith and CIA contractors and former Navy SEALs Glen Doherty and Woods were killed in the assault.

The attackers stormed the U.S. consulate and started shooting around 9:40 p.m. About a mile away, members of the CIA annex security team heard the gunfire. Several members later testified that their chief of base ordered them to wait before responding.

“We just reached a point where we decided to leave on our own,” one unidentified team member said, according to a 2016 report from the congressional Benghazi committee. more here

10 Comments on Benghazi 10 years later: ’13 Hours’ survivor reflects on deadly battle, says US hasn’t learned from mistakes

  1. “..US hasn’t learned from mistakes”

    God bless them, but this is wrong.

    It wasn’t a mistake.

    The sacrifice of the Ambassador was deliberate and intentional.

    The deaths of his security detail were just considered expendible collateral damage.

    Do not mistake the Communists then and now for inept or incompetent or stupid, as they want you to do so you won’t take them seriously until it’s too late. None of this is because of any of that.

    It’s all because they are evil people bent on destroying this nation by any means possible.

    Never forget that.

  2. If you haven’t read sundance’s incredibly through report on the debacle in Libya and specifically Benghazi, you don’t know the half of it. In short, what happened in those 13 hours was a direct result of more fucked up covert bullshit by Obama’s administration to transfer vast amounts of weaponry to the Libyan “rebels” to be used to overthrow legitimate governments in N Africa.

    This government is the largest criminal enterprise in history. The election was flat out stolen in 2020 and fucking nothing has been done and no one(a couple small potatoes aside) has been brought to account to rectify the numerous ways & methods used to commit the massive voter fraud.

    Does it look like to you that the dems and their media whores are the least bit worried about losing either House of Congress? yeah, vote HARDERER

  3. Ambassador Stevens was sodomized, murder, and sodomized again.
    Those pictures are indelibly printed in my mind and I believe with certainty, God doesn’t forget.

    ALL those responsible, everyone at every level, will answer to Him.
