Obama is terrified that the truth of Benghazi might come out.

This cannot just be about a CIA operation gone bad. This has to be about covering for something really damning about Obama. Really bad!

The CIA is in panic mode, or the White House is in panic mode?

It’s my take the CIA was doing Obama’s bidding.

It’s like blaming your ambassador for doing exactly what you asked him to.

This is Obama’s fiasco. It’s Hillary Clinton’s Fiasco.

He was AWOL. She was AWNB.

AWOL = Absent without leave

AWNB = Attending with no brains

Our founding Fathers and others in the great revolution sacrificed much (and many all) to create this great country. It is hard to believe there isn’t one Patriot within the effected group who will risk all to open this package of lies.

And if we the internet people will keep pounding on the scandal, eventually the drug-addled obamaroid will be exposed as having been too zonked with drugs that night to respond. And hillahag thought she could hang his half-black ass out to dry by taking no leadership roll to cover for the pissant post turtle.

No he isn't. Bush's fault.

“You don’t jeopardize yourself, you jeopardize your family as well.”

Just another day at the office for the Chicago thug-in-chief. Didn't some Austrian guy use the same tactics back in the 1930's? Looks like the current White House occupant studied something well enough to actually put it to use instead of the usual pretending to know what he's talking about.

“Thirty-five Americans on the ground.....”

Could such a large contingent had something to do with one of those conspiracy theories floating around in the aftermath having to do with an “October surprise?”

I recall one had a kidnap/rescue theme. It seemed bizarre then, but the whole Benghazi matter is bizarre.

Real exit question: What was CIC Obama's CIA doing in Benghazi?

Giving weapons to Syrian rebels would be such a yawn for most American citizens the New York Times wouldn't even have to build ‘plausible’ excuses around it. The Washington Post wouldn't have to remind us that Bush sent people to the ME... first... or whatever.

The countries Obama would NOT want to be caught arming or selling information to would be: China, Iran, North Korea.

Polygraphing our own people implies Obama has a civil war happening within the CIA. Petraeus has the feel of being in the know... yet the Administration is leaving him alone... I assume he's with Obama.

My guess is what went down could look like treason ... might or might not be - but could look like it. Playing this hard with CIA and SEAL types required psyops, pressure, and lies on an unimaginable level.

When did Hillary have her 'falling down' accident? Anyone know?

Here’s a thought:

The house leadership knows what happened. But they are too scared to make it public because they KNOW the conservatives will DEMAND impeachment.

The house leadership does not have enough guts to do their job. That is why the Benghazi scandal is not going anywhere fast.

Thoughts?

The total load of 21,000 MANPADS included mostly SA-7's --old and very vulnerable to such simple countermeasures as flares. BELOW:


https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/97/Sa-7.jpg

Also with the SA-7 featured above the target must be silhouetted against bare sky for the seeker to "see" the target. So if I'm a hilltop rebel trying to fire on a helicopter approaching from low in a valley using the SA-7 Grail, then forget it, the missile sees nothing, since there is a mountain behind him.

But After Reagan's air attack against Khadaffi (much later it turned out his daughter was not killed in the raid, as he'd claimed for many years), Khadaffi imported newer Soviet AA missiles, also, like the SA-24 Grinch, below, and THIS is the real problem:


http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-j5TUVPrTpqA/Tmh48bS0bOI/AAAAAAAAAXM/T2e2iOPYRrw/s400/SA-24_Grinch_9K338_Igla-S_portable_air_defense_missile_system_Libya_Libyan_army_001.jpg

It flies at Mach 2, reaches up above 10,000 feet, and the aircraft needn't be seen against empty sky for targeting. Also the Grinch needn't score a physical hit for detonation --it also comes equipped with proximity fusing, so if senses an impending bypass, it will still trigger. Also if there is remaining fuel, this, too, will be blown in the explosion as a kicker. Even with jamming and flares, about one in four Grinches will score a hit, generally.

What type of success might it get against commercial aircraft in their current form...? The Obama Admin does NOT want to talk about this at all.

Was this attack carried out by Iran and other Assad supporters who wanted to stop the flow of weapons to the terrorist? I think obama wanted to give shoulder fired rockets to the terrorist without the world finding out about it. He will catch a lot of flack if airplanes start falling out of the sky after being hit by rockets he gave the terrorist.
