That’s TREASON and MURDER.

Jail Him Now in pretrial confinement and we demand remand.

There is no source for this article. It is, so far, stand alone speculation stated as fact. Beware unsourced blogs.

How do we ‘now know’ that this was a kidnapping attempt?

[InterceptPoint]

Not to defend O who is capable of anything, but this seems a bit of a stretch. If there is any real proof of a kidnap plot I haven’t seen it.

[greeneyes]

If true, it just goes to prove that Obama doesn’t understand Americans. There would still be outrage that the blind shiek was released.

Negotiating with terrorists would be seen as weakness - not a hero. This would decrease his poll numbers and show that his supposed foreign policy success was just a lie.

BTW George it is the column one should object to, not you for posting an example of story peddlers run aground.

Tie all the pieces together. Protest in Cairo - and immediate apology from Embassy about "the video". According to this witness who was in Egypt on 9/11, protestors were calling for the release of the Blind Sheik. He also states that the WH was aware this was coming as early as August 25 because his group had informed the Embassy of an impending attack.

Listen Here.

This seems a bit farfetched, stupid and treasonous even for Obama, so until something approaching reral proof comes to our attention, I don’t believe it. However, if it is true, it would be treason beyond any shadow of a doubt.

This kidnapping speculation has been floating out there for days. There is NO EVIDENCE for this whatsoever.

The plan fell apart as two former SEALs, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods, fought the kidnappers, leading to a firefight and""""""........

This does not fit the timeline given on the attack. Stevens was hold up in that safe room, attackers set fire to it, the two guards seem to have escaped leaving Stevens behind.

I thought it was long after that when Ty Woods made his brave attempt to rescue the Ambassador.

Now, it very well could have been a Kidnapping attempt, it just seems the stories are out of order. Am I wrong?

Anyway, I can see where that "STAND DOWN" order would have been given, if this was only to be a kidnapping attempt.

Obama knowing that, said Stand Down, as he KNEW it was to be only a kidnapping. The best laid plans of mice and men.....Well, Obama you are in DEEP DEEP doodoo.

We now know it was not initially an attack, but an attempted kidnapping of Ambassador Stevens to use him as a pawn to get their beloved Blind Sheik back.

No, we don't know that. While I was one of many who earlier suggested it as a possibility, it was mere speculation. I think sheer pinko utopian Anti-American pro-terrorist stupidity on the part of our officials is more likely. I think they are like the leftist revolutionaries who were going to take over Iran after booting out the shah, and once again they got outsmarted by their allies the islamists.

an attempted kidnapping of Ambassador Stevens to use him as a pawn to get their beloved Blind Sheik back.

Obama meets with Omar Abdel-Rahman (the Blind Sheik for those in Rio Linda) prior to release.

Obama: " OK Abdel-Rahman, I got your one way to Cairo on e-bay"

Omar: "you may call me Omar"

Obama: "Thanks Omar...and I got you a disguise as those pesky FReepers have an eye out for you"

Omar: "Let me consult with you later on that"

Obama: "I got it covered, what with the FEMA camps and a billion rounds of ammo."

Omar: "Keep up the good work my brother from another mother"

Obama: "And how was the American culture field trip to a noodling competition ?

Omar: ..."I caught an alligator."
