Interestingly enough, this quest has the same name as the first part of the Shifting Sands questline, which opened the gates of Ahn'Qiraj. The entry for it no longer exists on WoWhead, searching for it takes you here instead.
The scope is by the north-west path leading off the island.
No, I didn't spend 10 minutes searching crates for a lootable telescope, why do you ask?

Description
<The F.C.D. buzzes.> Look around the Cathedral Quarter. There should be a telescope nearby that the 7th Legion uses for spying. Find it and use it to scout the harbor. We need to find out how the 7th Legion got past our fleet. Hurry, {name}. We can't hold these beasts back much longer. What does tomorrow bring?

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- On Whose Orders?
<The F.C.D. buzzes.> The 7th Legion are an elite special ops regiment. They've been there, behind the scenes, for almost every major offensive and military engagement the Alliance has ever done. This is bad news. How did they get past our warships? And on whose orders are they here?
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Fall Back!
<The F.C.D. buzzes.> <Howls can be heard in the background.> <name>, do you read me? Come in, <name>. This is likely my final transmission. The worgen have overrun Forsaken Forward Command. It is now only a matter of time before the base is lost. Belmont and the val'kyr, Arthura, have left.
