But you know, the other question I was asking is based on a report by Adam Housley from Fox News where he was talking to somebody from the commander and extremist force based out of Europe basically saying that A force at a very high state of readiness could have been in Benghazi in four to six hours. which actually would have at least saved the additional two lives, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods.
