This incident becomes stranger and stranger and it looks like a cover up that’s starting to fall apart. General Ham which was a 4 star general in command of African operations was relieved of duty for ignoring an order to stand down.
Essentially somebody above the commander of the region ordered a stand down and most likely it would have to white house or joint chiefs. It’s just fishy that you have a youtube protest story cooked up so quickly to explain the situation.
Based purely of speculation I’m guessing we had some kind of “Fast and the Furious” operation going on over there and in order to prevent people from finding out about it we decided we’ll sacrifice a couple of American lives and use a cover up story. The reality is unless somebody big up in the administration decides to talk they’ll probably successful cover it up but if somebody does talk then you have the possibility of something bigger than Watergate, assuming Obama gets re-elected. Of course Obama will probably try to shove Hilary under the bus if that happens.
