Topic: Benghazi Report

The House Select Committee on Benghazi released its report, prompting a discussion on the failure of the military chain of command. Charles Krauthammer is cited regarding the timeline of the attack and the lack of immediate military response despite orders from Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta. The focus remains on why help was not sent during the ten-hour duration of the event.

The Benghazi report mentions US personnel on a tarmac changing in and out of uniforms multiple times, which Mark Toner denied caused any delays. The hosts speculate that US forces may have been wearing local militia uniforms, such as those of the YPG, to circumvent constitutional requirements for congressional war approval. This practice is criticized as a violation of international law regarding combatant identification.
