Yes. It’s party time for Hillary and Bill.
The Dems also had their law firms SUE, IIRC, to have detainees released.
Why was the diary there in the first place. It makes no sense to me.
CNN finding it days later and not the State Department.
Makes no sense to me.
Are there parts of the diary that State Department wants revealed but knowing they couldn’t do it let it fall into the hands of CNN.
OR was Stevens CIA and CIA wants parts of the diary revealed to expose State Department.
Obama has had a war with the CIA.
Perhaps the CIA wants him out.
Pinging rodguy911 to your post speculating that Stevens was CIA.
CNN finding it days later and not the State Department.
Makes no sense to me.

DING DING DING
I am curious if it details our Ambassador's work with the GITMO detainees during the overthrow and the supply of heavy weapons to them. This would make them want to discredit CNN prior to the release of that info. ISOLATE THE TARGET THEN RIDICULE?
...In May, one year after arriving aboard a cargo ship to work with those involved in the upstart rebellion, Stevens was appointed U.S. ambassador to Libya.
Glenn Beck was discussing this...believes there is a cover up going on. His theory ... the ambassador helped arm the rebels. Now they are trying to recover weapons before they end up in an incident killing Americans or Israel. Which would be an embarrassment to administration. (Paraphrase), Why was he there on September 11th with basically no security.
“...there is the family who didn’t want it to be made public...” IF I were a part of the family and found a journal/diary existed, I would want to know what was in it before it was publicized. IF I knew there were things about my loved one that he didn’t want to be made public, I would especially want to read that material before it was publicized. To me it is extremely logical that they would not want it in anyone’s hands and control except their own.
I see Hillary is fresh off the set of her new movie, “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane” the sequel.
What the hell is that, a curtain? The hair is a disaster as usual.
military? ?...hope he doesn’t tap in the mens room.
Odd leg position for a military man...JMO.
The Admin is upset because the contents of the diary — lack of security and potential threats from muzzies — doesn’t fit the narrative Obama and HClinton and Rice have been trying to sell.
Obama/HClinton are still trying to sell ‘the video’ as the culprit and match that has lighted the ME fiasco. O/HC need that because, otherwise, the culprit and match seems to be incompetence and indecisiveness in Obama ME policy.
"....Christopher Stevens was a Middle Eastern diplomat who typified the new breed going from the University of Berkeley and the Peace Corps to desks in Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Syria. He taught English to Moroccan children in the Peace Corps and helped Palestinian Arabs in the East Jerusalem Consulate, which has a firm policy of pretending that Israel does not exist.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said of Christopher Stevens that he “made other people’s hopes his own” and that may serve as a fitting eulogy both for Stevens and for the disastrous foreign policy of making “other people’s hopes” our own that brought on the Arab Spring.
Stevens, like Clinton and Obama, made the hopes of Islamists his own and they repaid him for it, just as Afghans repaid America for supporting them against the Soviet Union, as Lebanon and Somalia repaid America’s peacekeeping efforts by killing American troops and on down the litany of gratitude in bombs and bullets that have come America’s way from the Muslim world........
....The only reason Christopher Stevens had lasted this long is that the jihadist fighters had known a useful man when they met him. And Stevens proved to be very useful, but his usefulness ended with Gaddafi’s death. Once the US successfully overthrew Gaddafi and began focusing on stabilizing Libya, Stevens ceased to be a useful idiot and became a useless nuisance. Attacks soon followed on the Benghazi consulate and on other consulates as well, but the Marines were not brought in and Stevens continued relying on local goodwill to secure his offices. It was only a matter of time until the attackers got through.....
....Stevens’ former Peace Corps colleague says of him, “Chris devoted his career, and life, to improving relations between the Arabic/Islamic world and the West.” That he did and he died doing it, losing whatever career or life he might have had if he had not embarked on a futile errand to make the Muslims who killed him and paraded around his body like him. And like all those who have died over the years in the same cause, the effort was to no avail. ...."
This theory is plausible. Might not be right but it is plausible.
The security guys were part of the team trying to track down the weapons.
Perhaps there was suppose to be a meeting with rebels or one of their cut outs (to use a spy term)
But wouldn’t a meeting happen somewhere else??????????? Unless he was lured there so they could make a statement against the facility.
Why not take him hostage like William F Buckley???
Or, did a traitor in the US set this up with a handy film to blame. They sure jumped on that film .
I think they took Nakoula underground. He was and still may be an asset.
“And Stevens proved to be very useful, but his usefulness ended with Gaddafi’s death. Once the US successfully overthrew Gaddafi and began focusing on stabilizing Libya, Stevens ceased to be a useful idiot and became a useless nuisance.”
Completely disagree with this.
Stevens was still useful. Unless he had contacts he was willing to rat out. I could see them taking him out for fear of what he might do but not because he was just some useless idiot.
In that photo, one is crying she was found out....the other just looks bored with the whole thing and just wants it to go away.
Saving their own asses is what the Clintons have always been about!!
——Libthink: ——
Oxymoron.
There is no such condition as Libthink nor Libthinkers.
A more correct expression would be Libfeel or perhaps Libfeelers.
There is no rational process. An emotional process of idealogical purity controls actions
So why did the State Department tell CNN to give the diary to an Italian official???
Wouldn’t some head honcho at CNN think that they might need to call the CIA, or Dept of Defense to see if there was anything that should be kept secret???
So did someone give them approval to use that journal???
Yes they do Sir. Just look at the “No’s” when God and Israel were voted on at the DNC just recently. They don’t even try to hide it anymore. In your face Anti-Israel! Woe be unto this Nation. Pray for America.
