U.N. Ambassador Rice Helped Thwart Bin Laden Capture
IBD EDITORIALS ^ | November 21, 3012

Terrorism: Our U.N. ambassador, champion of the altered Benghazi talking points, helped block attempts by Sudan to turn over the world's most wanted terrorist outright or share intelligence leading to his capture.

Our U.N. ambassador, champion of the altered Benghazi talking points, played a key role in blocking attempts by Sudan to turn over the world's most wanted terrorist outright or share intelligence leading to his capture.

It does not surprise us that U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice either willfully or blindly parroted altered Benghazi talking points, going on five Sunday news shows on Sept. 16 to push the false narrative that the attack on our consulate in Benghazi was not a terrorist attack but a flash mob inflamed by a months-old Internet trailer insulting to Islam. This isn't the first time she has been clueless about and blind to the reality of terror.

As we mentioned in an earlier editorial about her possible appointment as secretary of state, "In 1996, while serving as assistant secretary of state for African affairs under former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, Rice helped persuade President Clinton to rebuff Sudan's offer to turn Osama bin Laden, who was then living there, over to U.S. authorities."

Richard Miniter, author of the book "Losing bin Laden," told World Magazine in 2003 that Rice played a primary role in scuttling the deal in which Sudan could have turned over bin Laden to the U.S.

As a member of Clinton's National Security Council, he wrote, she doubted Sudan's credibility.

"The FBI, in 1996 and 1997, had their efforts to look at terrorism data and deal with the bin Laden issue overruled every single time by the State Department, by Susan Rice and her cronies, who were hell-bent on destroying the Sudan," Miniter said.

Rice - yet another unqualified Obama appointee. He must go out of his way to push dumb people. And his defensse of her was odd.

She has a knack for losing embassies to attacks.. Two
African embassies went up under her watch at State.. Maybe they should have all the US ambassadors vote on it.

Wrong. She’s fully qualified and serving her master. She’s not working for us.

Can we change back so that conservatives are “blue” and Dems/Communists/Progressives can be “reds”?

Why did they stop switching after each election?

Don't know where they find them, but they seem to actively recruit the type. IOW, she's just the type Obama wants in "his" diplomatic corps (pronounced "Corpse" by the Obamites)
