Obama Knew
American Spectator ^ | 1025/2012 | Jeffrey Lord

Posted on 10/26/2012 4:28:30 AM PDT by IbJensen

Did ideological soft spot for Sharia keep U.S government from protecting Benghazi consulate?

Obama knew.

Say again, Obama knew.

So. The question.

If what happened in Benghazi wasn't incompetence -- was it ideology?

Did Sharia kill Ambassador Chris Stevens, Foreign Service officer Sean Smith, and two Navy SEALs?

And is Hillary Clinton's insistence yesterday that the leaked State Department e-mails were "not evidence" yet more evidence that indicates the Obama White House not only knew what was going on but deliberately turned a blind eye to Benghazi because of that ideology?

Specifically, did an ideological soft spot for Sharia -- Obama's name is being used by his step-grandmother to raise funds to educate kids in Sharia -- blind the U.S. government to the threat posed by Ansar Al-Sharia? A group whose objective, says its Libyan leader, is to "impose Sharia" on Libya.

A group whose namesake in Yemen is a subsidiary of Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula ("AQAP" in State Department language). It was, recall, Obama himself who first dismissed the so-called "Underwear Bomber" as an "isolated extremist." Finally the administration was forced to admit that AQAP was responsible for "the December 25, 2009 attempted attack on Northwest Airlines Flight 253 from Amsterdam to Detroit, Michigan."

First, the e-mails.

In a stunning leak (and as this is written the leaks discussed below are expanding, with more gushing forth), Fox News producer Chad Pergram has discovered one of the biggest stories of the fall campaign:

...officials reported within hours of last month's deadly consulate attack in Libya that Al Qaeda-tied group Ansar al-Sharia had claimed responsibility.

...The Obama Administration knew specifically "within hours" that the attack on the Libyan consulate was a terrorist attack ...

Liar, liar, damned liar. These four were sacrificed due to the moronic dithering of Brack; they were thrown under the bus.

How many times do we have to say it?

He's a muzzie trojan horse.

We screamed as loud as we could 4, 5 .. years ago.

But would anyone listen?

(In my best John Balushi) ..

NO-OOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Our biggest mistake is fighting Muslims with a Muslim. All outcomes possible have a Muslim winning.

This can not stand!

The intelligence, part of which they have had for over 8 YEARS, shows the attack was planned by Hillary and the Obama administration.

I don’t think it was dithering at all.

1. baraq met with the muslim brotherhood multiple times this year in the White House.

2. baraq’s reaction to the attack. He was cold and seemed to be bothered by it all.

3. He kept to his schedule to go to Vegas like nothing happened.

4. He trotted out a lie about a youtube bit and had the maker of it arrested. BTW he is still in jail. No news on that guy.

5. The mother of a CIA anaylist murdered over there has met with baraq, hillary and pannetta. She is being smokescreened and BS’ed by all of them.

Don’t know where this leads, but it sure looks like baraq knew well before it happened and is now acting incredulous that anyone would be looking into it.

Bozo, ordering the execution of bin Laden, was performing a mercy killing by proxy. Bin Laden was now classified as ineffectual, so Bozo, kindly, gave him a ticket to paradise. As to bin Laden’s 72 virgins, they ran out of those 200 suicide bombers ago.

Ty Woods dad didn’t get warm and fuzzy vibes form Obama, Clinton etc. when he met with them either - felt like they were not telling him the truth and were ‘cold’. He’s speaking out about it now as he realizes his son was left to die when no help was sent and everyone just watched.

Remember 0’s Hollywood friends are making the case that Zero not only was kept updated real-time on the raid on Bin Laden but actually was partly in command of it.

At the same time we are told to believe that with a drone over Benghazi and live reports from the consulate and the embassy it was impossible to understand what was going on during the many hours the attack took place! No aid was forthcoming, because the whole situation was so unclear!

THIS DOES NOT COMPUTE!

Remember Nicholas Berg? He was the young man who went to Iraq, walked in dangerous places, protected, he felt, by his good intentions. Nicholas Berg attempted to convey that he was on “their” side, no doubt he was.

Nicholas Berg was beheaded.

This is what happened in Benghazi. As relates to Islamists, what we have been experiencing is the Nicholas Berg foreign policy.

Perhaps now we can learn that the Islamist sees all our actions as punitive, retaliatory, and sinister, except when we attempt to frame our actions as altruistic, and then they see us as weak. Weakness is always seen as an invitation to kill us.

He answered it - and gave the go-ahead to AQ. A failure to respond showed them right away that it was cool with the boss.

Say it! Obama is a Moslem. He gladly sacrifices the infidel to the jihadist brothers just as he is doing with the whole country and with civilization.

I think it was an “October Surprise’ that didn’t come off quite as planned. No one counted on the SEALs defending the ambassador or the ambassador dying before he could be “kidnapped.”

Obama has said in the past that he would stand with the Muslims and he meant it.

The call was answered. It wasn’t the answer an American president would have given.

More than just a kernel of truth, it's what 8 year old intelligence shows.

The intelligence shows the terrorist attack was planned THEN they planned the protest in Egypt as a cover. The idea was to make it appear as if the terrorist are so in tune with the news they can pick up on a news story then plan and carry out an attack immediately.

That is the reason for lie about the attack being spontaneous.

When that didn't work the only alternative was to make everyone believe the attack and the protest were completely unrelated and just a coincidence they occurred at the same time.

That is why they continued with the “spontaneous” lie, so everyone would keep repeating there was no connection with the two. The lie has worked. Everyone now believes there was no connection.

With the terrorist attack being planned then the protest being planned as a cover, you move the planning for the attack back months.

It's not possible to plan an attack against a particular person, on a particular day, at a particular location months in advance without some guarantee the person would be at that particular location on that particular day. The person that guaranteed he would be there is Hillary.
