    Gibson and others explain why this is technically not a "stand down" order. It's just an order not to go.

        @SharylAttkisson "stand down" "not to go"......depends what your definition of "is" is. The deaths of 4 Americans could have been prevented

        .@SharylAttkisson If a superior orders "Don't Go, then I would technically interpret it as a "stand down" order.

        @SharylAttkisson Apparently Gregory Hicks was never informed of this important distinction. Sounds like a de facto "stand down" to me.

        @SharylAttkisson so what's the difference between "standing down" & "not going"? Either way it was a death sentence for those in Benghazi.
