It is now known that the White House watched the Benghazi attack on a live video feed, as Americans asking for help which was within less than an hour away, were denied that help three times!

Former Navy SEALs Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty were part of a small team who were at the CIA annex about a mile from the U.S. Consulate where Ambassador Chris Stevens and his team came under attack. When they heard the shots fired, they radioed to inform their higher-ups to tell them what they were hearing and requested permission to go to the consulate and help out.
