Actually, he was there to meet with some person from Turkey. Why ..?? It’s never been clear. However, I hardly think the Turks would be helping us find weapons .. more likely, he was there to buy them for the Syrian rebels.
How about “Fast and Furious II”.
A FReeper posted this within 24 hours after Barry's Benghazi Stand Down.
15-20K manpads, shoulder launchers, is what I always thought he was trying to round up.
No kidding. This is hardly a new speculation. In fact the one thing they never tried to hide was that some CIA people were there to try to round up MANPADS that were looted from Gadaffi’s arsenals.
Wow! Talk about bombshell... not! The real bombshell would be that Hillary knew about it, and Hussein knew about it. They left these men to die.
Impeachment File on Benghazi Coward B. Hussein Obama.
Yes, they left them to die to cover up the gun running. And then slowed the FBI investigation for several weeks to allow the evidence to be removed, destroyed, burned ?
There’s a damn good reason Obeyme has been stonewalling.
BINGO - Muslim Brotherhood!
Agreed. I think Travis McGee's discussion from last fall about Obama being the only individual capable of granting cross border authority for U.S. forces to enter Libya was on the mark. Obama lied. Stevens and Navy Seals died.
Super Bump!
Nail, meet hammer. If Grahamnesty is accepting this version of the “truth” from Foggy Bottom, he’s even dumber than I thought. All signs point to the late ambassador being involved in some sort of gun-running operation to the Syrian rebels, with Turkish diplomats helping facilitate the deal.
To my knowledge, only one of the victims of Benghazi has been publicly identified as being involved in efforts to round up arms left over from Qadhaffi. In the days after the consulate attack, one of the hero ex-SEALs was described as working on a CIA contract to gather up MANPADs left over from the former Libyan regime.
Securing weapons caches is not the work of an ambassador. On the other hand, it would require high-level diplomatic coordination to work the sort of gun-running operation that Stevens might have been involved in.
The truth may be starting to emerge. A hacker has started released e-mails from Hillary to her old pal Sidney Blumenthal, and we may get a completely different picture as more details are divulged.
This “arms round-up” story sounds like a desperate version to get ahead of what may emerge in the coming days.
“Lindsey the Light” is not a good liar. He told 2 really big lies about this in just a few statements.
Of course this was planned and directed by Obozo himself to furnish weapons to Al-Qaeda to use against Assad. More of Obozo’s Arab Spring operation. Supporting his Saudi master’s interests.
Benghazigate ping...
There had to be reasons why Stevens was in Libya months before Gaddafi fell. He knew what the risks were when he went to Benghazi. He wasn’t some country club ambassadorial appointee.
So you send an Ambassador to do the Military’s Job. Oh that’s right the military couldn’t be in Libya!! Might offend somebody!!!
Sounded more like 0bama was worried that his illegal war on Libya resulted in looted weapons caches that could’ve been pinned directly on his illegal actions in Libya.
I berate WND when they screw up. So I have to give them kudos when they deserve it. Well done, WND.
That’s in the article. You have to read between the lines where it says he was helping Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey recruit jihadists to fight Assad in Syria.
