Murder And Lies In Libya And Washington -- David Hunt, FOX News
"When the attack began, a Diplomatic Security agent working in the Tactical Operations Center immediately activated the Imminent Danger Notification System and made an emergency announcement over the PA. Based on our security protocols, he also alerted the annex U.S. quick reaction security team stationed nearby, the Libyan 17th February Brigade, Embassy Tripoli, and the Diplomatic Security Command Center in Washington. From that point on, I could follow what was happening in almost real-time.”
Those are the words of Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Charlene Lamb from her testimony before House Oversight Committee, Washington, D.C.on October 10, 2012.
Once these words were uttered there should have been a stunned silence followed by an explosion of questions filled with outrage and disbelief, followed by more yelling and righteous indignation; sadly there was none.

My Comment: Col. Hunt wrote this commentary piece a week ago .... considering the news that is coming out today .... his words are prophetic. In short .... when the attack was happening on the U.S. consulate in Libya, scores of people in Washington and elsewhere were watching the events unfold in real time for 7 hours .... and did nothing .... and are now trying their best to cover their inaction. As I have said many times before .... this is a huge scandal. Americans died .... and people in power did nothing to help them. But .... with a Presidential election only 13 days away .... the political class and much of the media are now trying their best to avoid what has been .... and still is .... an incredible news story of "lies and murder in Libya and Washington".
