295 Helicopter Pilots Were Given Stand Down Order
[ChananyaWeissman] In a recent interview, Jonathan Pollard explicitly confirmed the only plausible explanation for what happened on Simchas Torah: there was a stand down order while thousands of Jews in dozens of communities were brutally murdered, tortured, raped, mutilated, and dragged off to Gaza.
I suppose this is the only way he can think of to earn a living, after spending so long in prison after getting caught handing secret information over to the Israelis.
The vital clip is available here, and a link to the complete interview with Kofy Time TV is in the description.

As copious video evidence has shown, the savages conducted their rampage methodically and at great leisure, without concern that an overwhelming military response was likely to arrive any moment. They somehow knew they had time to sit down and eat, take smoking breaks, pose for videos, loot the dead, and torture many of their victims.

If you managed, in spite of all odds, to break into Fort Knox, you wouldn't take your sweet time.

Unless, of course, you knew with absolute certainty that the cavalry wouldn't be coming for a while, because certain people in the highest positions of power made sure of it. As Pollard states:

"...It took six hours for any reaction to occur, when the army and air force bases were within earshot of what was going on. I have friends who were helicopter pilots, attack pilots, who were sitting in their cockpits ready to take off, fully loaded, ready to stop them at the fence. They didn't get their orders for six hours.

#2 Wow.
The Benghazi peeps kept saying there was no stand down order. Was there a stand up order? If not...?
To give the Israeli pilots a break; when on strip alert, do you just push the Start button, or do you need some external power source somebody could have turned off?
I was Infantry better than half a century ago. Couldn't have held our guys back.
