Over 6 months after the 9/11 attacks on our diplomatic and intelligence facilities in Benghazi and we still don't have official details on what was apparently a pretty impressive display of guts--or who they were (even if we can't know names for security)--by the few on hand to fight the jihadi attackers.
And we haven't struck back at the jihadis in that time, too. And no, I don't really count supporting the French effort in Mali even though some of those jihadis were linked to the Benghazi assault.
Why? To both failures, of course.
