I finally finally finished Benghazi Gates, Part 2, What Happened to Ambassador Stevens.
This is a draft version only and a few additional facts will be added. It definitely needs a bettter script and narrator than me. This video answers many questions on what happened to Ambassador Stevens from the time he was abandoned by his State Department employees at 11:20 PM and the time he was taken out of the Main Building of the American Consulate in Benghazi Libya. It also raises many new and disturbing questions as well. The worldwide news media has overwhelmingly pronounced the retrieval and transport of Ambassador Stevens to the Benghazi Medical Center as a kind hearted gesture of good will but this video cast significant doubt on that assessment. I too once believed that it was a gesture of good will until I examined the long version of the amateur video of the retrieval. That video is available as "The Retrieval of Ambassador Stevens" on my YouTube page. The fact that there was a splice in the video at a key point and then a "new" pulse check of the Ambassador raised doubts in my mind. I then completed a frame by frame examination of the video and was stunned at what I found. I then found a few new key photographs on the internet that led me to piece together critical aspects of what happened that night. And why did the Al Qaeda linked group Ansar Al Sharia end up surrounding the Benghazi General Hospital? Weren't they over at the Mission Annex when this group arrived at the Consulate at midnight?
WOW! Thanks for your work, Dave. BTTT!
That is incredible. You have confirmed what I stated on the first post after I saw the original photos. These are not rescuers. They are murderers.
Thank you for the effort you have put into this.
Thank you so much. I actually posted here supporting the retrieval effort but I had a bad feeling about the longer version of the video and well you see what happened. I need to take a break from the video work so it will be a little while before I do an update. My work on Ben Ghazi Gates was my first real effort at any kind of video production and it is a steep learning curve! What does BTTT mean? And what do I do with the Pings and bumps? I am not allowed to e-mail, all my posts have to be moderated and it drives me crazy that it takes so long to get responses to people...
Thank you very much. What does BTTT mean?
BTTT= Back to the top- keeps in view for others
For example, the shirt up vs. down, you mentioned possible CPR, checking for pulse.
But the change in belt buckle has no comment, nor does the presence of a weapon. If Libya is anything like Iraq, most everyone has an AK-47. So don't assume that everyone thinks that you think they are terrorists.
It is interesting that other than the fire damage there doesn't seem to be any indication of bullet holes or other violent damage. Although I guess if the Ambassador was not protected, not much reason to start shooting at the place.
It would be interesting to see if any images of the CIA Annex building are available where it seems the real fire-fight went down.
Thanks again for the video.
I was just thinking we needed a summary about what happened with Stevens. I can’t see most videos on my computer but I’ll use my kids’ computer if I have to, to see this one.
Pings and bumps will take care of themselves. Hopefully the moderation requirement won’t last long.
Ping to new information on Stevens’ death from video analysis. (Good forensics).
“My work on Ben Ghazi Gates was my first real effort at any kind of video production and it is a steep learning curve!”
I would say you are a heck of a good study. You have done what even none of the networks have and done it well. Kudos.
“What does BTTT mean?”
Bump To The Top. Used to be the more hits you got on a thread, the longer it stayed in view. Now, it’s used for either marking a thread you want to get back to, or letting the originator of the thread know they done good. Or both.
“And what do I do with the Pings and bumps?”
Pings is when you want to let specific people know about a thread. You type their niks into the TO: box whether it’s one or a hundred, and the article or reply will be sent to every name on the list. When you get this reply, it will show up on your comments page. THAT is a ping.
A bump is the same as BTTT.
“I am not allowed to e-mail, all my posts have to be moderated and it drives me crazy that it takes so long to get responses to people...”
Patience. This too shall pass. Took me about three days before I could post without a longggg wait.
From what I have seen of your stuff, it should be a very short wait.
Your posts have been excellent.
Here’s a Bump to the Top, DM.
Have to watch a little later when I’m fully awake.
One or more have been hectoring Dear Leader and State Dept for answers, but that begs the point that there should have been no prohibition placed on what they did once the remains were returned to them.
After they yanked him out the window, handled him like a sack of grain, and filmed and photographed him laying on the ground as though he was a trophy.
The problem is that the video that tells the true tale will only be viewed by a limited audience.
BTTT
Thanks, Nailbiter. BTTT! Thanks Dave!
We get a LOT of trolls come election season.
The email and pre-moderating requirements are temporary to keep the disruption down to a dull roar.
Don't worry, you will soon be amongst the fully living.
Welcome to FR!
Thanks for the ping, Candor7, I have been following Ben Ghazi Gates but would have missed this thread. The ‘puter/internet is getting less of my attention these days.
