It just hit me that, with the release of the Benghazi report weeks back, I don't recall ever hearing anything about Obama issuing cross border authority. Did he?
-
What's cross border authority?
-
Not that I'm aware of, and I (peripherally) know some of the folks that would have been involved. I know of at least one command that requested it, and didn't get an answer either way from DC.
What's cross border authority?
.mil speak for when the CinC tells us that we can enter other nations and break stuff without their consent.
-
^^^^in addition to cross any borders to complete a mission. That's why Obama was incommunicado (if he really was). They did not want a rescue operation. The only satisfaction to be gained from that disaster was the heroics of two men, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods, who fought to the death. Because of what they did, it caused Obama, Hillary and several others to *expletive deleted*it their pants because they worried that those to heroic men would succeed and expose their perfidy. Only Obama as CInC could have ordered a rescue where any of our assets had to cross borders in a rescue.

So, what hasn't been said is that Obama was told of the attack, but never gave the authority for any of the waiting planes and troops to enter Libya. Why hasn't that point been hammered?

..... Why hasn't that point been hammered?
Where have you been the last 8 years ... ???

The mainstream media has pretty much, lied, buried or ignored any and all salient facts about the whole episode.

Paying attention, but I didn't think to look for a reference to cross border authority in the report.

About the most comprehensive report on the Benghazi affair I've found ... Explains why Trey Gowdy's committee went no where due to both sides not wanting the truth to be known ... well worth reading ...

It's going to take me awhile to wade through all of that.

We were shipping arms out of Libya to Syria to arm
ISIS, FSA, the people not quite as bad as Assad (at least we thought so at the time, who later turned out to be much, much, much worse.).
Us doing that would have violated the arms embargo to Syria, embarrassed the Turks, and the Libyians (at least the ones nominally on our side), and whoever we were shipping the arms to in Syria, who were pretending to be on our side. McCain's ahole buddies there, remember??
The whole "He was negotiating a lease for a Consulate." Bushwah cover story? I'm sure whoever the owner was of the building that was originally attacked would have been more than happy to continue his European Vacation on our dime, given that his country had gone all Mad Max. (Thanks Hillary !!!)

See people keep getting sidetracked on the lack of action on the administrations part.
I'm just over here like "What about the *expletive deleted*ing coverup?"
The real criminality of the whole thing is what Clinton did afterwards.
-
What coverup? All I see are politicians and media doing their level best to NOT see what is right in front of their face. I guess they were being very slow to release records also.
-
I read part of the full report last night. Obama did give the order to go into Libya. The report didn't refer to "cross border authority", but he did give the order.
I still hate him anyway.

"Spontaneous protests to a video" when it was in fact a terrorist attack.
And many indicators that there was gun running to Syria involved.

I forgot about what they did right before that election. Thanks.

So when did he give the order and why wasn't there an overwhelming response? I would have wanted to see 2000 lb bombs level everything within 1/2 mile of the embassy.

This. While the inaction on the part of Obama and Clinton is reprehensible, the cover-up is indeed worse.

Democrat mole reads Benghazi Report. Inserts lie in strategic location..."President Obama did order a rescue attempt into Libya".

What cover-up? I don't think they bother anymore......
