There should be no comparison at all to Benghazi for several
reasons, the obvious one being, the compound in Benghazi, Libya could fit inside the olympic-size swimming pool in the embassy in Baghdad, which is the largest and most expensive embassy in the world and it was under siege by protesters, not armed militia.
And the Marines were nearby and were not "under cover," as the CIA and mercenaries up the road were.
Oh the CIA is everywhere.
In Benghazi was it them or State dept that called for the 'stand down '?...,
only a few will ever know. The black ops dudes say it was Hillary Clinton herself that ordered the stand down, to a) cover for the arms shipments her foundation was tied to smuggling arms from Qatar to Syrian 'rebels' (ISIS) through ? ....you guessed it ....Benghazi and Tripoli, Libya.
You don't even want to know about b) the horrific war crimes in Libya ( by CIA-trained extremists)
like people coming home to discover their relatives, spouses and childrens heans in the refrigerators etc.....typical psy-ops to instill fear. Libya was the most prosperous nation in Africa until 2011.
And c) to cover for stealing Gadaffi's pallets full of gold that witnesses saw being trucked away.
All speculation and conspiracy theories though of course.
