(IBD) Was David Petraeus Blackmailed By Obama Administration To Hide Benghazi Truth?
True Conservatives on Twitter ^ | November 13, 2012

Posted on 11/13/2012 2:20:46 PM PST by raptor22

Petraeus Scandal: An affair that was known to the FBI for months and kept from congressional oversight committees might explain his complicity in a false narrative of the Benghazi terrorist attack and the order to "stand down."

The addition of sex to Benghazigate adds a dimension sure to keep the scandal going and one that does indeed make Watergate seem like a third-rate burglary. The affair admitted to by Gen. David Petraeus, now our former director of the Central Intelligence Agency, might have attached blackmail or the potential for blackmail to a scandal we have already called a case of criminal negligence.

But blackmail by whom?

Petraeus isn't the first general to have an affair while in uniform. But as CIA director, Petraeus' knowledge of the nation's secrets was unparalleled, as was his knowledge of what happened and when regarding the assault on our consulate in Libya.

The timing of his resignation is most curious — just days after the presidential election and days before he was scheduled to testify before Congress, under oath, regarding the Sept. 11 terrorist attack in Benghazi that killed four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens. CIA Deputy Director Michael Morrell is expected to testify in his place. But lawmakers want to hear from Petraeus, and so do we.

As we've noted, just two days after the attack on our Benghazi consulate, representatives of the FBI and National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) gave Capitol Hill briefings in which they said the evidence supported an al-Qaida or al-Qaida-affiliated attack.

The FBI and NCTC also briefed that there were several al-Qaida training camps just outside Benghazi. The area was described as a hotbed for the militant Ansar al-Sharia as well as al-Qaida in North Africa.

I’ve been trying to find out if they were born in Lebanon or the US. It seems their parents came to the US before they were born, but that doesn’t mean the mother had them here. And it doesn’t make them loyal Americans either way. The damage they have inflicted on this country and the methods make me think they are assets of some other country regardless of their citizenship. There is high treason going on, and I believe they may well hold the key, were I Jill I’d not take a long walk on a short pier. She’s quickly becoming too dangerous to the Administration to continue to __________.

Jill Kelley would have been operating on the ancient custom of 'I'll get you into the deal if I get ten percent of the proceeds' - the entire middle east operates on that ancient practise, don't lift a finger, just skim a share off the top. So you can work out what the estimated worth of the coal venture would be. Ten times $80 million. If she loses her 'honorary consulship of South Korea' there goes that little perk. Makes one wonder, just what benefit could she have been to South Korea? Sell coal to the middle east...LOL?

Honorary Consul - TO WHAT? ( I once worked for an Honorary Consul to Senegal, he used the licence plates purely to escape paying parking fines, and parked anywhere he liked, even on access to pedestrian crossings, because he knew he wouldn't be fined.)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jill_Kelley

Jill Kelley was born Gilberte Khawam in Beirut, Lebanon[13] on January 1, 1975. Kelley’s family, which includes an identical twin sister, Natalie Khawam,[14] and a brother David Khawam,[15] are Lebanese-American Maronite Catholics who immigrated to the United States from Jounieh, Lebanon in the mid-1970s.[2] Kelley grew up in Voorhees, New Jersey and later Northeast Philadelphia, where her parents owned a restaurant. Kelley lived in the Philadelphia area until her mid-20s.[8]

When Kelley’s twin sister Natalie Khawam appealed a custody ruling in favor of her husband in 2012, Director of the Central Intelligence Agency David Petraeus and United States Marine Corps four-star general John R. Allen wrote letters to the judge in that custody case on official letterhead supporting Khawam.[16] At around that time, both sisters faced separate personal financial problems due to their extensive debts.

That’s the sad limitation of this website, everyone wants to be the smartest and post the latest, and every piece of research information ends up scattered over a hundred or more headlines.
Like Paula’s father said, there’s more to this than meets the eye, though we might never hear about it.


That’s why some smart people need to collect all the info for future reference, or to have all in one place, for others to read. If a person reads it as it’s posted, it’s sort of manageable (but when it’s fast as it is now, it’s very hard) but impossible later one; not sure if the search function is even working yet.

I think Search is working. I remember the ‘happy’ days when we contributed research as it came to hand to the Long Threads, and didn’t go running off to post another article on its own, that would ultimately get lost. We worked as a group. That’s why I don’t post articles under a seperate headline, I prefer to add new stuff to the thread I am on. At least that way I know where it is and can come back to it.
But I’m not in it out of vanity, I’m here to try and inform.

And the information you and some others provide is priceless. It needs to be saved.

Thinking about it, it surely starts to looks like we've all been...what can I call it? Fooled, toyed with, scammed and plain lied to. And nothing is as it seems:

PAULA BROADWELLS HUSBAND. LINK

Scott Broadwell, 43, has not commented about the affair his wife was having with Petraeus, which reportedly came to light after Jill Kelley, a woman whom Paula Broadwell viewed as a rival for the CIA director’s affection and an acquaintance of Petraeus, made an FBI complaint about her. Kelley claimed Broadwell sent her “harassing” e-mails that led to the FBI probe that uncovered the affair...

Now tell me honestly, with a husband like that, would you have an affair with a nerdy looking twerp like Petraeus? I wouldn't. He looks like he could be her father, with a Lebanese incubus growing from his shoulder.

FBI Special Agent Frederick Humphries

In his social circle, Humphries has a reputation for sending silly emails, the Times said, and the shirtless photo was sent from an account he shares with his wife, who has a framed copy of it.

His supervisor at the FBI even posted it on a bulletin board at the office, the newspaper reported.

FBI Special Agent Frederick Humphries speaks during a news conference in Seattle in 2005. Previously known only as the “shirtless” FBI agent who helped jump start the investigation of former CIA Director David Petraeus, Humphries, 47, was identified by the New York Times on Wednesday.

There's a little voice in my head telling me the entire scenario is fake. Over.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Yes, its just too stereotypical, too “perfect.” Where is the mess? Kelly’s hubby walks with a bail of dollars in a Swiss bank acount? Braodwells husband has also been paid off? Both spouses have been unusually silent, one would think that the first stop after a gun shop would be a divorce attorney’s office for the both of them.

The whole thing is just so banal, and unreal.It has composition all over it, its too neat. The messy bodies are too well hidden.

Everything has turned “academic” while the treasonous stench of burned bodies from Benghazi seems long forgotten.

Something tells me that Paula Broadwell and Petreaus may not have had an affair, but some other kind of relationship. The Lebanese succubus (female of incubus IIRC) and her twin are obvious dark witches in this story. Is it all about money in exchange for selling our country to muzlims?

Happy little munchkins at another one of the Lebanese incubus' fabulous functions, with violins and caviar and maybe some rosewater in the punch. The Kelley's (her name is really Gilberte, shortened to Jill) attended the wedding of the Petraues daughter, the Petraeus attended the birthday party for Kelley's three year old daughter ( Army Brass at a three year old's party?) And now we find the twins both showed up just long enough at a Marco Rubio event just to have their photographs (tilted necks in full force) taken...

She invited Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn and his wife to a dinner party for the King of Jordan and, after he was unable to attend, she wrote to him again. 'The King and his sister (the Princess) are awesome people!' she said. 'Actually your name was brought up by the Generals when they were showing off the party I hosted you! (everyone loved that party).'

MORE HERE. LINK

Dailymail even has the recording of the 911 call she made...she's the Honorary Consul you know...blech, puke.

Considering she was instrumental (so they say) in preventing a publicity stunt/koran burning, I'm beginning to wonder, just how much might she have had to do with that 'shocking film' (of which we never saw any more than a dubbed trailer) Innocence of Muslims No kidding. It seems right up her ally somehow.

Kabuki Theater

The actors speak in a monotone voice and are accompanied by traditional instruments.

Kabuki stage equipped with a number of devices including revolving platforms and trapdoors through which characters appear and disappear.

The Al Qaeda attack on the CIA arsenal.

The protestors attack the consulate.

The heroic CIA.

The debased CIA.

The president remains elevated and isolated, immune and inviolate.

Due to the super storm and the suffering of New Jersey, the sex scandal between super soldier and wonder woman, the sleuthing FBI investigating the party hostess, all the momentum to avenge the betrayal of Benghazi is dissipated.

Wind scatters the great mandala and the monks begin anew.

Until today I was hoping that Petraeus might have had some honor in him. Now I don't think so. How could he cozy up to these - whatever they are? Traitors? Enemy agents? etc.
