Kenneth Timmerman, writing in The New York Post, breaks open another shocking chapter in the Benghazi scandal.
The Obama administration isn’t only giving the Taliban back its commanders — it’s giving them weapons... Miliary records and sources reveal that on July 25, 2012, Taliban fighters in Kunar province successfully targeted a US Army CH-47 helicopter with a new generation Stinger missile.
The helicopter and all aboard survived the attack as it was able to crash land. But what had hit the Chinook?

Fast and Furious. How many innocent mexicans have died, added to our own losses? Hundreds?
It is one article in "circulation newspaper." If it is still in the news next Sunday, I'd be surprised. I hope it is and this is added into at least one of the investigations. We'll see.
Has Fox News broken in with an "BREAKING NEWS ALERT" yet?
“Followed by cremation and scattering the ashes at undisclosed pig farms!”
No argument here. But would you like me to take a stab at writing Obama's comments to be read on Sir Teleprompter? (I will anyway...)
"Let me assure you, we did not give weapons to the Taliban or any other "nation" in the Middle East, for any reason. It didn't happen. Benghazi had nothing do with this. The evidence is inconclusive at this point. But we will get to the bottom of it.
Let me be clear. Terrorists will never get American made weapons. (Pause here) Ever! (Pause here again while MSM applaud) We don't know for sure what happened yet. But we are going to find out. And justice will be served!"
How's that? Can I write for Obama or what?
This might have been one of the weapons Brennan, Obama & Jarrett intended for the Syrian branch of the ROP.
The reason for the attack on the consulate, anger by the Libyans because they were promised such ‘party favors’?
A long train of abuses, domestic and foreign ...
It took much longer than I expected.
I figured this for 2011 or 12 but then again, the muzzies would not want to queer the deal for the american muzzie party getting elected in 2012 would they?
I’m not certain but I would bet that late-model Stingers will not operate in the US.
So the use of a Stinger to bring down an airliner in the US seems unlikely to me. I’d worry about all the old Soviet stocks of obsolete man-portable anti-aircraft missiles more.
As an embedded system person I can easily build devices that will only operate in certain geographical locations... I’m certain that military contractors can build similar systems.
It does not not necessarily depend upon GPS, it can rely on RF fingerprints or satellite assets other than GPS.
what the current Administration has done is to keep one “crisis” brewing after the other, to overwhelm the “enemy.” None can stay in the news long enough to bring anger to the boiling point. THey’re playing the political equivalent of “whack-a-mole.”
Sorry, this report was ‘12. Still surprised not more of this though.
Remember to add porcine offal to the ashes.
The murder of random innocent persons was the essential feature of F&F. It is depraved to the core.
And they are VERY good at it. A manufactured crisis is bombing an Aspirin factory in Afghanistan. Obama creates REAL crisis. It gets hard to tell what is malicious and what is incompetence. I have come to the conclusion he is not smart enough to plan these messes. So I believe all of Obama's disasters are a mix of evil and stupidity. this is why he is always so "SHOCKED" and "SURPRISED" when the next new cycle starts. I have no doubts he's in the dark most of the time. He couldn't manage a Lego build. So nobody expects him to actually make decisions and solve problems, let alone lead a nation. The only thing he's ever done is ideological hand waving and pontification. He's never DONE anything. Every idea he has is full of subterfuge and he hasn't the foggiest idea how to execute his deceitful and diabolical plans (thank gawd, actually). If it weren't for the confused liberal media, he'd either be in jail by now or Supreme Leader of the entire world.
“I want you to listen to me.
I did not give stinger missiles to that terrorist group, the Taliban. These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people.”
If they do have such capability, why not surround Bagram with a kill box of man pads? It would be a turkey shoot to bring down a C-5.
“....Supreme Leader of the entire world.”
Don’t give him ideas! (not that he hasn’t thought of it)
Oh yeah. I left that out didn’t I. We should apply for a position in the Obama administration. We’d make a solid team.
;o)
We need a picture grafting Obama’s face onto Clinton’s while he jabs his finger at us denying “that woman, Miss Lewinsky”
Ben Shapiro on Breitbart News says impeachment time is over; it’s time for prosecution. I totally agree with him. There is no way Obama will ever be impeached, even with a turn over in the Senate.
