Shawn Ryan has done an interview with Oz on his TH-cam channel. He's also done interviews with Sarah Adams, who worked as a CIA targeter going after the guys who attacked the Annex. They are fascinating interviews, but, as an American, this was an INFURIATING situation, and to this day, no one in the American government has been held responsible.
because its part of the plan. Our government is the enemy. Military oath is a bunch of bullshit. Foreign and DOMESTIC.
He has only had Oz on his show, not Tig or Tanto
@@ryanb-ol2pf doesnt matter, USA Patriot mind is like playdoh lol
No one in authority is Ever held responsible. There are no consequences for their criminal actions...
The US set up this whole situation. They backed these same guys to overthrow Gaddafi and destroy one of the most prosperous countries in Africa. In a way i guess you could say it was karma.
And for over a week after this happened, the media reported it as a "protest". We did not learn that this was a full-on battle until later.
And tried to blame a youtuber and pretend they hadn't been warned of a probable attack.
@@jamiemacdonald5203 They didn't just try to blame a youtuber, they straight up arrested him for it.
Its crazy how willing people are to be lied to. They question nothing the media say anymore.

Ah the media, gotta love how they’re always so honest.
Everyone says John's greatest role was Quiet Place. I think it's 13 Hours.
For sure. In film this one, in tv Jack Ryan.
Agreed friend. I love this movie for so many reasons and his portrayal of Jack is one of them.

For the record, it has been disputed whether the stand down order was given. But what cannot be disputed is that no help was sent. In spite of the fact that the intelligence services knew what was going on within the first few hours of the 13. Very tragic.
They have Hillary Clinton to thank for that support that never showed.
No, it's not contested. The Republican led investigations concluded no stand down order was given
. They also showed that IC had conflicting reports, 21 in total from DNI, DOD, CIA, and NSA, and that the majority of the reports, the ones acted upon by analysts, were incorrect. It's all in the reports, it's been more than ten years. Get it together.
It was disputed because the higher ups get to “investigate” their own and no one is gonna take blame for shitting the bed that bad

I'm a disabled Viet. vet. I served "in country" during the Tet Offensive (1968). After which, I was sent TDY to S. Korea to relieve troops in response to the hijacking of the USS Pueblo by N. Korea, i.e., Operation Combat Fox. For some reason I have to watch all of the war movies & reactions even though they still make me cry. I live with my dog in the mountains of Idaho.
In 1999 I was stationed at Bragg after I had blown out my knee on a bad jump, and one evening I went out in Fayetteville and saw that the cheap "not new movies" theater was playing a movie called "Once Were Soldiers."
I had always loved combat films growing up... but I think I lasted less than half an hour before I was overcome with feelings that I can't even begin to express... like sadness mixed with anger and indignation... and I just straight up left the theater because I couldn't take it anymore, feeling like I was about to explode and cry... and I had never cried from a movie in my life before that. Service changes you... and I think the more Highspeed you are, the worse the shit hits you after you ETS back to Fort Living Room. Now I have no enthusiasm for war movies at all, and have derived zero pleasure from since that day.
If you ever wanna talk, lemme know. I'm just a dude, but having someone to sit and talk to can be great
Thankful for you.
Thank you for my freedom.
Sean Smith (the IT guy) was a high ranking leader in a game called EVE Online, for the largest group in the game at the time.
He was their Diplomat and Spy Master. His gamer name.....was Vile Rat. He loved his real life job so much, that he would do the same job in a game for his friends.
He was a key player in many of the largest conflicts that have ever happened in a video game in history.
On the night of the attack he was logged into a chat service with his friends. He told them about gunfire being nearby and at the gate, before he went silent....... forever.
There are a couple memorial videos on TH-cam that players made for him, and a service was held in the game that had thousands of players show up and (essentially, with things ingame) hold a candle (in this case, a "cyno") vigil in his honor.
Still to this day, the forums url his group uses was named after him as well, and there are yearly memorials.
The attack in Benghazi can only be characterized by gross incompetence on the part of the State Department; criminal negligence on the part of the U.S. Government as a whole; and incredible gallantry on the part of the CIA contractors
Top of the villain list: Hillary Clinton.
@@Randsurfer Your ignorance is as complete as it is unsurprising. Republicans held hearings for literally months and came up with nothing in the end. What unknown bombshell do you have which no one else is aware of, random internet loser?

@@henryvandeventer2457Because they are psychopaths without morals or principles.
A big part of the reason Hillary Clinton wasn't elected in 2016 was because of how badly she botched this operation and her foreign policy in Libya in general. The US destabilized Libya in large part because Gaddafi was socializing Libya's oil reserves. The way Gaddafi died was unspeakably brutal (he was sodomized to death with a sword), and the country descended into complete chaos after his death. Libya was one of the most prosperous regions in Africa prior to the coup, and now there are open air slave markets.
Gotta be careful what one says these days.
Actually this incident had no bearing on why Clinton lost the election as it wasn’t remotely her fault. She lost for not campaigning enough in the battleground states and taking states like Pennsylvania for granted. She actually lobbied congress for increased security at ALL of our embassies but the then republican congress didn’t want to foot the bill. They cut costs for the 1% and people died. If you want to blame anyone it was the do nothing republican congress. I’m sick of people blaming Clinton when she is on record trying to save lives and increase security. All of this could have been avoided. Getting rid of Gaddafi was a good move. Socializing oil is never a good thing for the world market. If congress had stepped up with the requests for increased security, none of this happens. That’s a fact.

that line "I called for air support, it was denied." That's because the chain of command has to get the word from the top and that person simply disregarded the whole situation because it was past her bed time and it didn't matter.

Taken completely out of context, and in the middle of literally months of hearings where they asked her the same questions hundreds of times. Try watching something other than Fox News and you might actually learn something.
and then they tried to run her for president and still pretend she's an amazing person.
Those guys were basically abandoned and left to die...incompetence at so many levels. So damn unnecessary.
incompetence and betrayal by the government
It wasn't because of incompetence. It was by design.
And it went to the very top with Obama. The second that embassy was attacked, full unrestrained defense by all assets was justified.
NEVER ATTACK AN EMBASSY. EVER.
@@theezeelife292 those two statements are an oxymoron. Incompetence is a fuckup, something by design is on purpose.
@@asneakychicken322 autocorrect. Was supposed to say "wasn't because of incompetance." I fixed it.
When Congress interviewed Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, they asked her what she did. She said she went home. The congressman asked "alone?" She laughed and said yes alone 😢😢😢 These were her people under attack!
She's a criminal!
The laugh was at the absurdity of the question (and how it was phrased), not what was happening at the embassy.
@@LuckySmurf That pos is responsible for the whole shitshow.
@@LuckySmurfShe abandoned them to die. There is no doubt about that.
@@LuckySmurf the question wasn't absurd. American's were under attack!!! This was completely her responsibility and even her fault considering that she was the one who pushed this complete S-show into motion. The question was basically asking if she has anyone on her staff along with her working on the situation. In no way was that question or situation funny!!!
Note to those that don’t know by now… the state department turns EVERYTHING to shit. Hillary Clinton “at this point, what does it matter”
I will never forget that stupid statement for as long as I can draw breath. She got called out and caught, and made some REALLY idiodic back handed statements to justify her immoral high horse.
Remember in November who to vote for when you realize which party just laughed and went home for the day.
I remember that Donald Trump is a traitor to the United States. The end.
This. Don't forget Billary was appointed by Obama. It reminds me of that holdout with pirates that had American citizens hostage, and Obama delayed doing anything because he was afraid it would tarnish his political position, and the naval officer had to disregard orders and send in the SEAL team to rescue the hostages.
Then compare that to the orange guy who just recently almost took a bullet in the face for his country, and shouted his defiance. the same guy that went to the funeral for the firefighter who died in the shooting while the current Executive branch (including once invisible but now mysteriously popular VP) didn't even bring it up or mention it.
@@uh60ce1 Trump is a traitor.
@@temjiu9915 This. So much this.
She still got the popular vote back then.
So do you honestly believe the people that vote for that party are paying any more attention these days?
I was in Africa on a Quick Reaction Force assignment about 2 miles from the US embassy when we watched this movie in the team room. I had to walk out. Hillary Clinton let this happen. That is a fact.
And I've seen many other spec ops men who served at the time share their anger and frustration from not being allowed to respond to this and other situations due to politics. Absolutely disgusting.
Thank you for your service.
And there's a special place in hell reserved just for her.
I have watched this film several times and I'm still disgusted that they were basically left for dead. Some of the lines that Tanto says are mood lighteners especially in the heat of battle
There's also a book called 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi if you're interested
The movie was made to let Americans know the truth about what happened that night. They were on their own, and fighting for their lives for 13 hours. They could have had air support, but the U.S. government (Hillary) refused to send it.
@holddowna1_O-N-TE-LE-GRAM What?
Republicans tried for months to hang this on her and failed. Try watching something other than Fox News.
According to the government, air support was unavailable at the time. I'm not arguing in favor of the mess that was created, but Hollywood certainly is not interested in the truth; and cannot get anything right.
"Its really amazing to see this emotional side to these guys"
I couldn't agree more.I love this movie.

I got 9 mins in and this movie looked so good I watched it myself. Came back to finish the reaction when I was done though. :)
A lot of people involved in the American political spectrum did not want this movie to be released and went on the attack on it as soon as it was.
There was a lot of heat in particular to the stand down order shown in the film. The actual Tanto responded to this with, "We were told to 'stand down'. Those words were used verbatim-100 percent. If the truth of it affects someone's political career? Well, I'm sorry. It happens."
Scary how many people value their careers over lives.
That man will forever be Rone/Leckie to me 😂
I didn't date during my military career to save the hurt.. I did marry after my service btw.

Such an embarrassing situation for the State Department. This was the epitome of politics getting in the way of supporting our men and women.
It's easy to miss, but the quick scene with the two Delta guys saying "We're it, brother" is telling. The government sent two men from one of the most elite military units in the world simply to destroy sensitive information. If they could get two guys there, they could have gotten an entire team there, but the didn't. Absolutely pathetic how we abandoned those men. People should have gone to prison for what happened, but of course no one in the media seemed to care to hold anyone in THEIR government accountable.
Not "we." Obama. Obama doesn't represent us Americans, even if he occupied the White House for eight years.
You can thank Hillary Clinton for this.
You mean, blame

I can't hate her more than I do now.
@@TheRagratus ok… i sense your anger because you re american

she have no right to do that
I saw this movie in theaters twice. Once by myself, then the second time I went with my dad after I recommended it to him. He was pissed by the time credits rolled. The first word he said was, "Ridiculous" because of how the Obama Admin left everyone there to die.
Easily Michael Bay's best film.
One of the many reasons that (thankfully) cost Hillary the presidency.
I remember this day well, I was in boot camp when it all went down. For the next 2ish months our DIs made it sound like we were gonna be there busting heads next!
I spent 9 years in the Navy. I know we could have gotten help to them!
Yeah, you could have transported help closer to them.
That plane full of soldiers were all ready to go in and help but got orders to stand down as well. I get that it would've risked more lives, but CIA personnel and an American ambassador were on the ground so that help should have been sent no matter the risk
This movie makes my blood boil that Hillary got away with this.
When she got up and told Congress " at this point what difference does it make" a lot bitch, a whole lot.
There were 8 congressional committee investigations, both Republican and Democrat, that found no wrongdoing on her part
@@alphalax7240 If you believe that you're not very bright. She just happened to use BleachBit to purge 33,000 emails from her personal server when they were trying to investigate her. It's fine though because she's a (D)emocrat, nothing to see there.
@@alphalax7240 Right. What happened was gross, but it wasn't specifically Clinton's fault. There are reasons to dislike her, but this operation isn't one of them. If she had been responsible, her political enemies would obliterate her over it. They didn't.
@@alphalax7240 Kind of hard to investigate when she deletes 33,000 emails from her personal server that was illegal by the way. Similar to Biden having classified documents in his personal home.
It's (D)ifferent though, just like the Afghanistan pullout that got 13 service men and women killed and left behind 80+ billion in military gear/weapons to the Taliban along with hundreds of American citizens. Still no blow back for that either...
I met these guys at a book signing in 2015, Tanto is by far one of the coolest people I've ever met. I showed up right at the tail end of the event and their handler person said "Oh you wanna get your book signed? Oooooh, I don't know, they're closing up right now...." and Tanto runs up "Hey man, you wanna get your book signed? Well come on over!"

I served 10 years in the army. 6 as a ranger and this movie is highly accurate except how the 320 blew that tactical in half. They are not that strong. 4 tours and seeing a fallen battle brother never dulls. But in the midst of the fight there's no time to weep. You let that all go when you RTB. So in the beginning it was really smart that Tyron woods did not meet with Jack right away. It was good that he stood in the stairwell that way he could observe if Jack had a tail on him while he walked to the car. I found small details like that to be really cool because we did apply that in real world scenarios. Now I'm not the best of the best Like Delta, Navy seals etc but rangers do get a good bit of training and we often do CQC and CQB which is close quarters combat and close quarters battles (clearing rooms) With different military groups. So sometimes a seal may actually teach a ranger something new that they never known. And rangers Are JSOC qualified which means joint special operations command. Basically meaning rangers can roll out with a SEAL Team but we may just be pulling perimeter detail while they do all the room clearing. I can't speculate too much on these guys jobs cuz they were private contractors and I don't know how much of the military actually still applies as far as regulations goes but I will say as far as a combat, coms, yelling out RPG, yelling out mortars etc. If you ever found yourself in a situation (hypothetical ) where there's mortars get as low to the ground as possible because they blow up and out so there's a better chance of you living if you get as low to the ground as possible and if you can actually find something like a foxhole to crawl into

Republicans held literal months of hearings about this and came up with squat. All you right-wingers do is tell each other the same old lies until you all consider them facts. It explains Donald Trump perfectly, y'all are just that ignorant.
Ames, some things to understand about this. The reason that Libya was a failed state is because the US (under Obama, but pushed mainly by then Sec. State Hillary Clinton so she could get her "war" bona fides before her future presidential run), along with the Brits and French, caused the overthrow of the Gaddafi government in Libya under false pretenses (sound familiar?). That caused a power vacuum resulting in competing factions battling for power. That threw the country into chaos. As a result, still a dozen years later the country is still in chaos and there still exist actual open-air slave markets today since that time. What a great legacy for Obama, the first black US president (who I voted for the first time). The ambassador went to the same school as me and I had met him previous to his death (obviously). The political leaders that caused this (Obama, Clinton, others, and I include the idiots in Congress regardless of party who were also pushing Obama into action because he was actually trying to avoid it, I'll give him that) are the absolute worst of humanity. If there is a hell, I can only hope that there will be an accounting for those ghouls.
Already happening. Many have already been taken out. Deep State about finished now. Time to buckle up and hear the truth.
"You knew you werent going to win that BOOOOOBBBB" 😂😂
Deposing Ghadafi turned Libya from a country with 95% litteracy rate to a failed state. The only reason international coalition did that was because France was afraid to lose financial influence in northern Africa as Ghadafi was trying to convince other north african countries to create common currency based on gold standard.
Jambo is a greeting like "whats up". Normally given by Ugandan security contractors which were very common on American bases in iraq.

Jim and Roy finally put aside their differences and kicked some ass
Kris “Tanto” Paranto also has a podcast that he co-hosts with a friend, called Battleline Podcast, it can be found here on TH-cam and on Spotify as well. It’s named after his company “Battleline Tactical” where he hold’s tactical firearm training to Military, police, and civilians. He’s had on a CIA targeter named Sarah Adams, who is to this day hunting down those responsible for the attack and she worked with Dave “Boone” Benton to create a book called “Know thy enemy”where they expose the identities of those individuals.
Also, quite funny about the gun courses he holds, seeing as in the movie he’s so conscious about gun safety and guns being pointed at him 😂
Everytime i see Tanto crying at the end, i cry too
The KPV heavy machine gun fires a 14.5 mm round. Usually mounted on tanks or Armored Fighting Vehicles like the the BMP series. Now there was a infantry model that was produced up till 1960. The vehicle they are in would be turned into swiss cheese. If the two characters decided to fight it out in the beginning.
Thanks Obama, thanks Hillary.
you said "eye in the sky" in this video, and it made me think of the movie "Eye in the Sky" from 2015, its a small short flick but really good and accurate at depicting modern drone warfare, i'd recommend a watch!
Tanto runs a training school now. The section chief was such a tool. They actually forced retired him. This movie followed the book, and the actual events very well. Only thing is the bit at the beginning actually happened a week prior to Jack even arriving in Libya.
There’s certainly some dramatization in this movie, but I believe there’s much less than most think. For instance, the scene where John Krasinski’s character, Jack Silva, momentarily lost his contact actually happened. The survivors were actually consultants during filming.
Some of them were. Boon and Jack gave their input but didn't wanna appear on camera so the other 3 (tanto, oz, and tig) did most of the heavy lifting and all the press interviews for it
Hair looks amazing, Ames. This movie is more of a documentary, really.
Who else thinks the reactor looks like Aubrey plaza
You're right. Did not think of that. Quite a compliment for both of them.😄
@ 4:43 the Libyan civilians love Americans, that was a terrorist organization blocking the road, sames guys who attacked the Americans later...
That guy is "Bob Leckie" from "The Pacific" i love him!!
Such a good film
6:15 that's the actor (David Denman) that played Roy Anderson, Pam's ex boyfriend in the Office. And the guy playing Jack Silva (John Krasinski) is Jim Halpert
If you liked this movie, try Hotel Mumbai.
another underrated film. "Guest is god"
Krasinski just delivers it HARD every time!
I think the saddest part of the whole situation is that Libya is still a mess to this day and it's totally our fault. There are even slave markets in Libya again.
Why is other peoples actions our fault, they choose to behave like animals instead of forming themselves into a civilised society

Not we. The Democrats. They haven't represented American values for quite some time now. They worship Marx.
I think most comments pretty much summed up the important parts of the movie, including the real life blunder that this was… so I’ll add something I didn’t see an explanation for. Something this movie leaned into was the term Jambo and the hand gesture. This term is a greeting in Swahili similar to hello or used as a greeting of friendly arrival. We often think of the war in Iraq or Afghanistan as being a US war, however there was an entire coalition of countries and units from all over that assisted. This would include African nations that were often used to assist with guarding facilities, especially in Iraq.
Those individuals portrayed in this movie certainly would have had multiple deployments to either country and would have known this term and gesture from their experience from those deployments. This was a quick way for them to quickly call out to see if they were friendly or not and have a quick response to that reaction. It’s a really awesome nod to those who are aware of this.
A real Clinton special.

Impressive how you cut the movie up so much but you still make it work..I'm taking notes girl 🤣🤣!!
I to this day am still so upset that our politicians would not take any accountability for the events that happened that day. These brave soldiers not only fought to retrieve the Ambasador, but then had the strength and brovado to fight against our own government on telling the truthful events of the incursion.
Great movie and reaction.
Lone Survivor is a must
Those “cute little rascals” were paid to shoot bottle rockets to test out security reaction and/or coordinates.
17:16 What I love abt this scene is when Emily said that, you can see her sister next to her giving her that "are you serious" look
The whole situation between the CIA spooks, and GRS guys, is the definition of "nobody loves the warrior until the enemy is at the gates"
I wonder how proud Pam Beezly was that Jim and Roy could fight a war battle together…..👀👀👀🤪🤣
"Bob" was massively incompetent. He severely underestimated how bad it was until their own annex was under attack. All of the GRS guys hated him but for the sake of respecting his anonymity (as well as "Jack Da Silva" who Krasinski portrayed) they just called him "Bob."
Oh, and the reason why the stand down order was given, so the rumors go, is that the Obama Admin was trying to cover up the fact that they were selling Gaddafi's weaponry to Syria (for the rebels)...which ended up in the hands of ISIS there.

Staying with the number thing, 12 Strong is also a really good movie based on true events.
Fun facts: Tanto and the rest of the guys are real badasses. There was another asset they could have sent aside from the guys in Tripoli, there was an Special Forces Commanders In Extremis Force somewhere waiting to get some trigger time. Around 80 dudes give or take. They never got the nod to help. It was obvious negligence of the US administration at that time. Bigger picture, I think Libya was better off under Gadaffi at least he had good plans for Africa but some ahole doesnt want that.
One of my fav films for sure
Yes, the Western military coalition attacked a somewhat stable sovereign nation, deposed the current ruler, let his stack of arms fall into the hands of warlords and successfully ignited multiple civil wars that has destroyed the country. Libya still has 2 different Governments running from Benghazi and Tripoli.
The intervention wasn't done to help the Libyan people but to protect geopolitical interests of those nations intervening.
This event and other stuff is a big reason the military likes trump so much because not only did he have them given brand new military equipment they’ve needed for so long but he’s shown them the most respect
Two more intense war films:
WW2 film, The Thin Red Line(1998) It is about the battle for Guadalcanal Island in the Pacific. It is a beautiful looking film and stars most male actors of the 80’s and 90’s
Vietnam War film, Casualties of War(1989) It is based on a true event, and is tough to watch. Have tissues handy. Michael J. Fox is great in this dramatic film.
You are 100% correct about michael bay and his specific style, I find especially that the action scenes more specifically the explosions are very "personalized" he uses a lot of bright lights and sparks, where others might keep them a bit more toned down, it's very easy to see the similarities if you've watched movies like "Transformers", "13 hours" and "6 underground"
Hillary Clinton should be in prison alone for this. Its a shame how Americans lost their lives
I remember the jambo hand sign was popular with the contractors from Africa, they would be working inside the bigger bases and anytime you would pass by them they would always just say "jambo". I still don't really know why but it's cool I reckon.
I think it means "what's up"
"All the gods, all the heavens, all the hells are within you."
I recommend watching Lord of War and The Hunting Party
Great movie! Very sad about the incompetence of Obama and Hillary Clinton.
Trump 2024.
Les't dis-cuss pri-vately
I'll be expecting your mes-sage
Brought to you by Hillary.
3:33 that was a 14 mm Soviet era Machine Gun…..it was mainly used as an anti-air weapon…..and it was pointed at their car. Pucker factor 1000
One of the only people in the world to reference a Geo Metro. Nice
The story of this film was the main topic in the 2016 United States elections, after all, Hillary was one of those responsible for everything that happened that day, mainly for the failure to provide assistance to the American military. A lot of things were censored in the film, but if you search the newspaper articles you will see how everything happened on the day.
