..again....*willies*!?!
best one yet...
We need to tone down the wild conspiracy theories, like the ridiculous one about this being pre-planned, the ambassador was going to be kidnapped and traded for the blink sheik, etc.
The simplest explanation is best as put forth by John Bolton. The lie about the protests was concocted to cover up the fact that Obama did not neutralize Al Qaeda with the assassination of OBL, as he claimed and that the Arab Spring which he supported opened the door for rabid anti-US jihadists to take control of governments in Libya and Egypt.
The attack in Libya was an act of war but couldn’t respond as he should have and risk anti-US chaos in the ME right before the election.
So he wee-wee’d out and lied rather than admit he was on the wrong side in the Arab Spring, his killing of OBL did nothing to quell Al Qaeda, and to cover up his failure to be CIC.
Clinton went along because if she didn’t, she would be held to account as well.
It’s as simple as that, IMO. No need to go looking for far fetched conspiracies.
That Colonel Hunt interview with Howie Carr is a bombshell, and I encourage anyone who is interested in what really happened in Benghazi to listen to it.
Yep, sorry. I read that after the post. It was misinformation that stuck in the nook and cranny of my mind. Thanks again...

It was either the AP or WSJ insofar as I could tell. I couldn’t find the link to the AP story, any embedded links found on other sites to the AP story, no longer worked! The WSJ wrote a correction with a couple of hours after their report. Dunno about the AP. I would finger the AP but noted that the NYTimes and NPR quote the WSJ. I’ve also noticed that the NYTimes and NPR spell Basile’s name as Bacile. When one tries to google Basile - they ask first if you want Bacile - not that one can’t get Basile but interesting they ask first...
Another thing that’s interesting...the NYTimes, NPR...when writing about the 17th Febuary Martyr’s Brigade, write the 17th Febuary Brigade. The same thing happened at the hearing. Lamb said either 17th Febuary or 17th Febuary Brigade. The N African name for al Qaeda is longer but never abreviated.
The name “Martyr’s” has an obvious stigma. How could one even begin to hire people with such a name to protect our personnel?
As the leftists know well, labeling is important - has meaning, when which is why I think we should call Benghazi - BenghaziGate on the continuum. As Diana West noted, Feb 17th wasn’t even for the revolution in the first place, it was on that date the Italian attache in Cairo opened his jacket, underneath he was wearing a T-shirt with a cartoon of Mo. It appears they never forget an insult to their mo.
The "video cartoon", as you call it, is a vintage example of Palestinian-style propaganda -- amateurish and crude.
It seems absurd that it should be an effective piece of work. But you must remember that Palestinian propaganda is aimed at a single audience: the Western media. And our media folks are a gullible group, with little ability (or taste) for thinking critically.
Yes, to all your questions - Are you saying that Al Qaida is an ally of the Muslim Brotherhood? If MB was behind it, and our Govt. is in bed with these monsters (which it appears to be), now what? I have also heard a plausible explanation that it was another group that was loyal to Qadafi and enraged that their country has been trashed (how they had all that weaponry is questionable). So, bottom line - our Enemies over there a numerous and varied - horrific weapons are obviously in the hands of those Enemies - jsut beware of disinformation from our Govt. etc etc etc
You said it. The connection to a video, connected to a protest, connected to Hillary announcing the connection, to Obama repeating it, and then Rice, is something I want unraveled.
When those three are the only ones peddling that fiction against every single Intel agent, something is up.
There simply was no intel directing them into that fairy tale. So, who did, and why?
Maybe a promise was made by somebody in the inner circle and so a plot was devised to create a crisis that would naturally flow to show our contrition?
Not a problem. Not many have read the timeline or thought about what time it was in D.C. Just wanted to clarify for all that 0bambi didn’t even have to get out of bed to see and hear the whole thing on a live feed. It started about 3:30-4:00 PM EST and was over by about 7:30-8:30 PM EST.
Of course Obama refers to Mohammed as a "Prophet" because he was raised in a muslim family in a muslim country and was enrolled in school as a muslim where he went to Koran class. Calling Muhammed a prophet is like if he were to refer to Jesus as "Our Lord Jesus Christ." Christians do not believe mohammed was a prophet. Mohammed said that Jesus was not the son of God, that God doesn't have a son and that Jesus' crucifixion was a hoax. To call Mohammed a prophet is to spit in the face of every Christian. Obama calls the Koran "the Holy Koran." Can you imagine Obama ever referring to the Bible as "the Holy Bible?" Of course not. That might offend Muslims.
