"This apparent abduction by terrorists of our ambassador and then negotiated trade for the Blind Sheikh would have been the October Surprise that would have elevated President Obamas flagging popularity and boosted his approval ratings for a re-election. A dramatic prisoner exchange that saved our ambassadors life However, something went horribly wrong. A cunning and illegal bit of treachery by the Obama White House turned into something entirely different. Obamas October surprise turned into a carnage orchestrated by the White House itself as the President, Leon Panetta, and CIA Director, David Petraeus watched via a UAV real-time feed as a 7 hour attack on the Benghazi Embassy raged. Reportedly, stand down orders were given several times to different units within striking distance."

Retired 4 stars maintain significant connections throughout DoD and Intel communities.
The kidnap of Stevens would have been portrayed as his own mistake.
This would have provided cover for Obama’s desire to keep his MB friends happy, by returning the Sheikh.
The whole point of all of the turmoil in the MidEast is to destroy America’s interests and business base in the area.
Remember, Obama is the ultimate anti-colonialist, who believes our access to those resources is corrupt and ill-gotten.
Oh, did I mention he hates America and Capitalism?

If Obama got away with this, his approval would drop, not rise.
It takes a really sick individual to think kowtowing to terrorists is something to be admired.

As news of the Benghazi attack hit the wires and was picked up by FR, IIRC, the “video” lie was already in place.
I pulled up the YouTube of the video, and I seem to recall it having only 3 or 400 views.
The news from the previous day.
There was an AP report/story about the Cairo Protests and the reporter suggested the Cairo action was in response to the video.
IIRC, at Approx. 12 midnight Eastern standard time, the day before Benghazi the State dept. released a statement on their website attributing the Cairo protests to this video.
At this point, we have no idea if the video was truly the trigger for Cairo or if it was pinned to Cairo by the AP as a result of what State had released.
That would be a useful thread . . .bringing those historic, well documented details back up.
Thanks.
Yes, but I don't see how that would have helped his chances of reelection.
I also went back to Sept 11 2012 among my posts and couldn’t find the details.
I just know that I was online the evening of the Benghazi attacks, and the first thing I did was to search out the video. Literally within a few minutes of the “breaking news” that evening.
When I saw that the video only had a few hundred views and how retarded the video was, I discounted it as a factor and didn’t think to log or document it.
In retrospect, it wasn’t until a few days later that I found the AP story and the State dept’s news release.
All I can say is that when news of the Benghazi attack broke, the video lie was in play.
That’s what I remember.
If that is true, the re-writes of the talking points would reflect, not a last minute effort, but a desire to maintain a narrative that was previously established.
A narrative that was more than likely established by the State Dept.
Not by itself.
But, for the appearance of a “low cost” resolution of the kidnapping of our Ambassador.
Go away, you jackass. Plenty of other posters on this thread agree the story is hyperbole.
I think it is a boot.
BUT HOW DO YOU PROVE IT?
Even obama is not so cock-sure of himself as to leave any kind of paper trail, if this scenario actually happened. I can envision personal communication by Obama ( or close surrogate) with the muslim brotherhood to carry off this alledged kidnapping. I can envision obamas refusal to kill the perps of the attack letting obama know via back-channels that they have taken steps to assure this information is made public if anything happens to them, thus neutraling obama from even attempting to kill them.
BUT HOW DO YOU PROVE THESE ALLEGATIONS?
Impeachment File on arrogant, Benghazi Coward B. Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, a legal citizen of the sovereign Nation of Indonesia.
I thought you were through posting to me!?!
Never happen. 0traitor will never, never be impeached.
“BUT HOW DO YOU PROVE THESE ALLEGATIONS?”
We must pray that God finds a way to bring the truth to light before it is too late for our Republic.
