Fox News: Drones Above Benghazi Were Unarmed
Fox News reports that, according to senior military officials, the predator drones flying above Benghazi during the attacks on our consulate were unarmed. This is the question on which Chris Wallace pressed Democratic Senator Mark Warner over the weekend, to no avail. Correspondent Jennifer Griffin notes that one of the two drones came from Darnah, a city in eastern Libya; the other took off from Sigonella, Italy, to provide backup once attack was already underway. So why was it unarmed? The Fox report does not provide an answer.

Imagine what would have happened if the Obama administration had allowed the consulate to actually have appropriate security and defense. These two men are true American heroes.

The problem with this story is there is no other report except the blog you offered as a Link.
You would think by now this would have been everywhere but there are no other sources.

I don't doubt it, SEALs are some of the thoughest s.o.b.s to ever walk the earth. Pure killing machine walking around cloaked in a man's flesh. I often wonder how it would go down between a SEAL and a Green Beret in a barfight, it'd be interesting to watch.edit on 30-10-2012 by lonewolf19792000 because: (no reason given)

Reports from Libyan witnesses of the 9-11 Benghazi consulate attack are coming in now. Among those reports are stories that the two American ex-SEAL's who broke orders to go to the defense of Americans at the U.S. consulate put up a valiant fight against the 150-200 attacking terrorists, capturing AK-47s from dead terrorists and killing up to 60 of the attackers.
Imagine what would have happened if the Obama administration had allowed the consulate to actually have appropriate security and defense. These two men are true American heroes.
Two Killed Navy Seals Used Libyan Guards AK-47's To Dispatch 60 Terrorists Who Were Attacking Benghazi Consulate
A short distance from the American compound, two Americans were sleeping. They were in Libya as independent contractors working an assignment totally unrelated to our embassy. They also happened to be former Navy SEALs. When they heard the noise coming from the attack on our embassy, as you would expect from highly trained warriors, they ran to the fight.
Apparently, they had no weapons, but seeing the Libyan guards dropping their guns (Note: The only guns that the Libyans would likely have had were AK-47 rifles) in their haste in fleeing the scene, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty snatched up several of these discarded weapons and prepared to defend the American compound.
Not knowing exactly what was taking place, the two SEALs set up a defensive perimeter. Unfortunately Ambassador Stevens was already gravely injured, and Foreign Service officer, Sean Smith, was dead. However, due to their quick action and suppressive fire, twenty administrative personnel in the embassy were able to escape to safety.
Eventually, these two courageous men were overwhelmed by the sheer numbers brought against them, an enemy force numbering between 100 to 200 attackers which came in two waves. But the stunning part of the story is that Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty killed 60 of the attacking force. Once the compound was overrun, the attackers were incensed to discover that just two men had inflicted so much death and destruction.

That really depends on the person but Seals are tougher over all in a combat environment as they do not give up for anything. A bar fight between two guys on the same side does not bring out the killing machine that a Seal is when he snaps his mind into combat mode.
Green Beret's are just a step over regular Army units. Maybe equal to Marines in training and yet Green Beret's are trained better for training and using indigenous forces when they can. Green Beret's take down air ports and stuff, Marines take cities and beach heads. Seals are the nations go to force when they don't want anyone to know about it till its long over or they need to strike fast on a small group or individual in a can not fail type situation.
The Seals are trained the best and have the best toys money can buy, if they want it they get it. The one thing that sets Seals apart from all others is their mental toughness on-top of Ferrari body's.
Should Obama get re-elected in some rigged miracle, I think the U.S. military will promptly remove his butt from office for High Treason over the things he has done to weaken this nation and kill many Americans. You just don't do what he did, stop our forces from defending the Embassy, letting Americans die and then removing a General and Admiral for wanting to do the right thing and send help in. All while trying to cover up the mess.

HELLO? Ever hear of 9/11?The World Trade Center...remember THAT?
Do you actually expect sympathy and empathy for terrorists?
What kind of human being can excuse the kind of mindless disregard for human life in which those evil bastards engaged? Damn "the other side and what they have lost!
Maybe you don't care...but I'm damn sure you'd feel very differently if you had lost a loved one or friend in 9/11!

The terrorists were shocked to see that only two men had done all that damage to their forces..
Now they should have a clue as the their future, when whole squads of these elite troops come looking for them...!!
And THIS, proves my point. This is exactly what the propaganda is designed to make one believe.
