Is the man the Obama administration appointed on October 4 as key investigator for the terror attacks in Benghazi an Islamist-sympathizer? According to recently published reports, the new chairman of a State Department’s “Accountability Review Board,” which is heading the federal investigation into the Benghazi terror attacks, has been accused of being an “apologist for Islamic terrorism who has a cozy relationship with Iran.”
What’s more, the man in question — former Ambassador Thomas R. Pickering — has documented ties with the controversial group, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). CAIR, of course, is a documented Muslim Brotherhood affiliate and was named unindicted co-conspirators in the Holy Land Foundation trial — the largest terror-funding trial in U.S. history.
To make matters worse, Pickering is also co-chairman of the board of George Soros’ International Crisis Group who has ties to other Islamic organizations as well, including the National Iranian American Council (NIAC), which has been described as pro-Iran “front group.”
NIAC lost what Matthew Vadum at FrontPageMag describes as ”an important defamation case in federal court last month in which it unsuccessfully argued the group was not a tool of the Islamic Republic of Iran.”
Pickering, who is a member of NIAC’s advisory board, formerly served as Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs (1997 to 2000). He was featured in a report “Rise of the Iran Lobby,” by former CIA officer Clare M. Lopez, who was recently featured on the Glenn Beck Program to discuss the motivations behind the terror-attacks on the U.S. diplomatic outpost in Benghazi.

And sunrise was at 6:02 AM this morning : )
Sorry..meant to ping you too. I need to get a list going and stop just going on memory...lol.
Btw...FR is running very slow for me today. Frustrating.i should probably reboot my iPad.
Sounds like Al Capone and Jury Rigging.... Remove and Replace the investigator.
November can’t get here soon enough. THE FOREIGNER operates just like a THIRD WORLD DICTATOR instigating phony investigations to PROPAGANDIZED THE MASSES. Only problem for this AMERICAN IMPOSTOR is THIS AIN’T VENEZUELA. And you can start PACKING YOUR BAGS.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping
” Btw...FR is running very slow for me today. “
It is slow for everyone. Don’t know why.
I’m glad to see it coming out....he’s an “old friend” of Hillary’s and was - Chair of TMK (PIPELINES)- Moscow until June 2012...I’m still trying to figure out why he stepped down at that specific time since he was Chair for 3 yrs:
The link was never meant for public use as its unfinished and messy but don’t have time to put down all info and thoughts. Track Pickering and one can find what the “Arab Spring” is all about...or track back to the Balkans and what they did there which was all about their RESOURCES - Gas, Oil, Pipelines, Minerals, Water, Food & Agriculture...
Interesting that the cities where the “revolutions” occurred were mostly port cities.
The IG for Fast and Furious was the long-time subordinate and PAL of Eric Holder and just LOOK at how far THAT went, right..?
Gosh I WONDER how aggressive THIS guy will be...
Wow...his resume just screams CIA. Thanks for the link.
Anyone surprised that Soros/Jarrett/hussein appointed a jihad bro?
for what it's worth ....................................................... FRegards
I sure hope Romney can evict these nuts back to camel hump land.
It won’t be easy....they are entrenched with PC protections at this point. Obama has installed more Muslims into our government than at any point in our nation’s history. We have been infiltrated thoroughly.
Why??

Obama’s Benghazi Investigator: An Iran Sympathizer
http://frontpagemag.com/2012/matthew-vadum/obamas-benghazi-investigator-an-iran-sympathizer/
The freshly appointed chairman of a federal investigation into the Benghazi massacre is an apologist for Islamic terrorism who has a cozy relationship with Iran, the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism.
And to add insult to injury, at press time Tuesday evening the chairman of this new State Department panel, former Ambassador Thomas R. Pickering, was poised to participate in a panel discussion at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., on “what role the faith community can play in fighting Islamophobia.”
The news comes on the heels of a new report by the Investigative Project on Terrorism that found that “scores” of known radical Islamists met with senior Obama administration officials during hundreds of visits to the White House.
Pickering’s appointment as probe chairman was announced in the Federal Register on October 4. The State Department “Accountability Review Board” headed by Pickering is tasked with examining the circumstances surrounding the Sept. 11, 2012 deaths of Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, information management officer Sean Smith, and security personnel Glen Doherty, and Tyrone Woods at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
The problem is that Pickering has ties to the pro-Iran Islamist front group known as the National Iranian American Council (NIAC). NIAC lost an important defamation case in federal court last month in which it unsuccessfully argued the group was not a tool of the Islamic Republic of Iran.”
bet the upholds obama lies
Thanks penelopesire.
Was that a rhetorical why? I read the Bible, to me it’s obvious but that does not mean all believe or see as mystically as me. If you are not rhetorical I can only say Obama is doing his best to destroy America so the Bibles prophecies will happen. As much as i do not like Obama our country has asked for abortion on demand, social justice, perversions in homosexuality, humanism, denying God, denying Jerusalem and Israeli’s as the apple of His eye. There’s more.
