I doubt that we will ever know the truth, but there's more than meets the eye about this incident. I believe Hussein set it up and something went horribly awry. It could be, as some suggest, that Hussein planned for Stevens to be kidnapped, but the bottom line is that all our ambassadors and personnel overseas have to now believe that Hussein regards them merely as pawns to further his interests.
I think the coverup is the fact that the administration and state department have been overrun with Muslim rights activists and “advisers” who Clinton and Obama have deferred to in the name of tolerance and sensitivity in the Middle East, believing their judgement was sound.I believe it was on these Muslims opinion that security be pulled from Benghazi to show our confidence in the locals as well as the Muslim brotherhood. When things started heating up on 9/11 they sat on it hoping it would play out as a minor protest as they were advised and when they finally realized it was a terrorist attack it was too late. Documents and emails are going to show names of Muslim advisers at the state department making the decisions which lead to the murders.
It has become my belief that the most likely scenario is that Stephens was involved in the “mother of all gun walking” situation: Transferring weapons, especially MANPADs, that we secretly gave to the AlQ who were the “Libya opposition forces” paying NO attention to who they were, over to “Syrian opposition forces” through Turkey.
This “Mother of All Gun Walking” embarrasses the administration not only for what it is secretly meant to accomplish, but due to the actors involved in the deal, and the explicit admission that AlQ is not dead.
