FLASHBACK :The key Benghazi questions still unanswered
http://www.washingtontimes.com ^ | January 11, 2013 | Adm. James A. Lyons

Another key question which must be answered is what important activity was being conducted at our Benghazi mission compound to cause Stevens to have to be there on the night of Sept. 11 to meet the Turkish consul general, even though he feared for his safety? According to various reports, one of Stevens‘ main missions was to facilitate the transfer of military equipment to jihadists and other Muslim Brotherhood and al Qaeda-affiliated groups fighting the Bashar Assad regime in Syria, which also fought our forces in Iraq.

This is a major betrayal that cost the lives of four Americans. Congress needs to form a special bipartisan investigative committee to uncover the facts and make them known to the American public. Nothing less is acceptable.

Retired Adm. James A. Lyons was commander in chief of the U.S. Pacific Fleet and senior U.S. military representative to the United Nations.

To me the biggest unanswered question is Who Gave The Stand Down Order!

Another thing with All these scandals. Where is Valery Jarrett in all this?

Never again could the US military be trusted 100%.

Commander-In-Chief went AWOL, shielded from Benghazi by Jarrett as he went to bed?

Curiouser and curiouser - The attackerz at Benghazi were supposed to be an affiliate of al-Qaeda, yet the transfer of the arms once in Libya were to be transported to Syria under cover of the Turkish government, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in particular, to OTHER affiliates of the al-Qaeda already in Syria.

But of course, the Current Occupant of the White Hut is so very close to the Turkish PM, that US Marines are ordered to stand holding umbrellas while having a press conference outside during inclement weather. There are no inside venues for this sort of thing?

You are right, to inquire where Valerie Jarrett was in all this. She is a most adept and adroit puppetmaster, and probably the one advisor that The Won listens to and acts for in just about every circumstance, now that David Axelrod has departed from the White Hut staff.

Wondering how the investigation into the attack and tracking down ring leader is coming along? After all, Obama and Hillary promised.

It is very strange that nothing has been done. Maybe they don't want to find the terrorists... for some reason? Maybe that is the real story here.

The Obama Administration is well aware and were hoping that you didn’t notice:

Unlike the hunt for Osama, Barack Obama has not been “born on third” in this manhunt situation.
