I'm not to blame. I have only found the article I can't say if it is true or not.

I like the comments, CAPLOCK works there too.
Its better for a laugh on the real wingnut conspiracy sites though as you can get some real frothing at the mouth coverage there

That's a matter of opinion.
I think the mere mention of the two sources tell you exactly everything about the validity of the initial claim being made.
You can't say that people are unfamiliar with the sources or the conspiracy nonsense they peddle given the frequency with which it is posted on this forum.

Do you need a link? the admiral who "refused to stand down" his airgroups for the relief of Benghazi was apparently at the time in the far east having a few problems with the discipline of his men on shore leave in the brothels of Thailand.
Now I know in flight refuelling has made great advances and jets can fly quite fast, but.....
mention?

Every name listed would have to be verfied. Personally, im not inclined to google 9 seperate names.

Oh, I dare say that the gentlemen involved have most likely have been either relieved of command or have stood down, but the reasoning behind it is what lumps this thread into the conspiracy basket. For example,Vice-Admiral Giardina was due to a criminal investigation into gambling.
Furthermore, the extremely subtle (!) comparison between the President and Kim Jong-un is a grasp worthy of Alex Jones and the FEMA death camp crowd.

So, into the conspiracy bin I say.

Sounds like these two flag officers were relieved due to cause. I am glad the military is holding their flag officers accountable. It takes a lot to get one relieved.

Yeah the one chump was in charge of all US nuclear forces and he got caught trying to use counterfeit chips at a casino.That calls his integrity into serious question which is why he was relived of command.

Obama is a master politician. He is turning America into a socialist dictatorship without anyone catching on to his devious plot. Thank God Bubbles is there to make us see the light.
