On the night of 11 September, 2012, the Ambassador’s compound is attacked by hordes of heavily armed locals. The only forces willing and able to defend it are six CIA contractors.

Note: I couldn’t identify the guy below. He’s the crazy guy selling the Russian SA7’s that calms down when Tanto says “jambo”. It sounds like Jamal calls him Hawani. He might be Iskander El Hag Aisa (East African) but I can’t find a picture of him to confirm either way.
