"This apparent abduction by terrorists of our ambassador and then negotiated trade for the Blind Sheikh would have been the “October Surprise” that would have elevated President Obama’s flagging popularity and boosted his approval ratings for a re-election. A dramatic prisoner exchange that saved our ambassador’s life However, something went horribly wrong. A cunning and illegal bit of treachery by the Obama White House turned into something entirely different. Obama’s October surprise turned into a carnage orchestrated by the White House itself as the President, Leon Panetta, and CIA Director, David Petraeus watched via a UAV real-time feed as a 7 hour attack on the Benghazi Embassy raged. Reportedly, stand down orders were given several times to different units within striking distance."

I don’t understand why the Won would have derailed his own operation. What’s the point?

This scenerio has always been I thought happened.

What "went wrong" was those 2 brave SEALs who were there.

How reliable is this site? How much do we know about this general? If this is the “other shoe”, Obama’s administration is OVER.

With what should have been only a staged kidnapping of Ambassador J. Christian Stevens, instead, Navy Seals Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty refused a stand down order and began doing their job of protecting the ambassador using force.

Holy cow... Is this for real? Who is this retired 4-star admiral testifying to?

Not new, but worthy of consideration. This would explain why the bad guys were only interested in retrieving Stevens' body, and not the others.

It's entirely possible this was a staged hostage taking of Stevens in exchange for the Blind Sheik, with security draw down and refusals to soften the target.. GONE BAD.

Why is the date 1/17/13? Is this current or old news?
