In May, Drudge editor Joseph Curl tweeted that a CIA source said there was still one more Obama scandalpalooza shoe to drop. “Yes, four shoes. Dead ambassador, tapped phones, IRS probes. Will it be worse? Can it be?!” he asked. After the Fox News/DOJ scandal broke, Curl’s source suggested the White House was still sitting on something explosive that had “top aides terrified.”

Would that be the fifth shoe? The sixth? With all these “phony” scandals, it’s hard to keep track.

On Thursday, CNN revealed that dozens of CIA operatives were on the ground in Benghazi during the Sept. 11 attack and suggested that the government is using intimidation to keep them quiet. On a late-night call, Curl’s CIA source said, “This is the one.”

Curl’s source asks a key question: What were all those agents doing in Libya?

According to CNN:

Speculation on Capitol Hill has included the possibility the U.S. agencies operating in Benghazi were secretly helping to move surface-to-air missiles out of Libya, through Turkey, and into the hands of Syrian rebels.

This is all much phonier than Iran-Contra.

Would anybody in the US really care if the Syrian opposition shot down a Syrian plane with a Libyan missile? The Democrats know that’s not an issue. It’s something bigger. Why did Hillary and Obama use US taxpayer funded personnel, equipment and facilities to overthrow the government of Libya?

AKA arming Al-Queda with US made surface-to-air missiles...

Still, there's a lot of talk of how this was supposed to be a snatch-job, where the ambassador was kidnapped, to be exchanged with the "Blind Sheik."

On the other hand, this could simply be the beginning of the Obammunist disinformation campaign to blame Benghazi on the CIA. Kills two birds with one stone: gets the blame off of Obama(and more importantly, Hillary for President) and throws the CIA under the bus. One of those classic win-win situations for the Democrat/Progressive/Fascist/Marxist/Racist Party.

“Speculation on Capitol Hill has included the possibility the U.S. agencies operating in Benghazi were secretly helping to move surface-to-air missiles out of Libya, through Turkey, and into the hands of Syrian rebels.”

Please remember Hillary’s testimony before Congress. She was asked point-blank if arms were being traded from Benghazi through Turkey.

She replied to the question with seeming disbelief and dismissal, scorn and derision: “Turkey?” -— As if the questioner had said Disneyland. She mocked and then denied the allegation.

If it turns out to be true, that is and “What difference does it make?” are the only clips her opponent needs to run, over and over, in 2016.

“This is the one”? Yeah, right, I’m sure the MSM will get right on it. /s

Funny they wanted tracking devices on guns sent to Mexico, but the last thing they want is guns sent to Syria to be tracked.

I wonder if the 2 seals were killed by weapons which Obama/clinton supplied to the attackers.

Several have commented that “we knew the WMDs were being sold”. I agree. I think there is a bigger issue here. If the CIA and others were in Benghazi transferring weapons(selling them), then they had to be told to stand down by someone. They could have helped rather quickly. It seems POSSIBLE that the Benghazi Massacre was set up to deflect attention from the specific transfer of weapons on that date.

If the reason was the latter, then that would explain why no one from the “ground” would go to the aid of Americans. Why else would they hide this information and claim help was 12 hours(?) away.

Devil’s advocate - Reagan armed rebels without the consent of Congress. Ignoring who is “good” or “bad,” what is the issue here? Why is this any different, if this is what happened?

George Zimmerman Changes His Name to Ben Ghazi to Avoid Any Further Media Scrutiny

George Zimmerman Changes His Name to Ben Ghazi to Avoid Any Further Media Scrutiny and White House attention. Although the White House says Benghazi is a phony scandal, it has sure spent a huge effort to close any leaks of information about it and absolutely no effort to bring the killers to justice...probably to avoid having the killers spill the beans about the real truth about Benghazi!!!
