Today’s Washington Times<\/a> is reporting that General<\/a> Carter Ham<\/a> has been relieved of his command as head of Africom<\/a>. During the Benghazi<\/a> attack, the General disobeyed a direct order to stand down. After receiving e-mails during the attack, General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon<\/a> that he had a unit ready. He then received the order to stand down. He ignored that order and proceeded to respond to the request for aid.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command<\/a> apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I realize that the General disobeyed a direct order, but some of the military people who understand these things are saying that this is very weird. Something strange is going on here.<\/p>\n
