It was rented from a local Arab. It was not hardened. Or protected, thanks to thighness. It was a place to do gunrunning away from the Embassy in Tripoli. Even the Brits who had a place right next to it had evacuated a month or more before 9/11/12.

I think we’d hear about it thru internet sources or something.

It just amazes me that the media and our general population don’t give it a second thought how much this story has changed.

We have gone from: Oh no, a video came out and a lot of protesters were angry, so they stormed the embassy. And btw, nobody could possibly get there in time. And that mean old video maker was arrested...and Hillary made a video of her own, begging the muzzies to forgive us for the video.

to: We had a CIA compound there, where we smuggled weapons and human assets and who knows what else. And the guys we’ve been at war with for a decade...those Al Quaeda guys...well they attacked it with the equivalent of an infantry company. And oh yeah, there were SEALS in the area, CIA security teams, a ship in the Mediterranean, an air base in Italy, that all could have sent help - but either didn’t, or were delayed.

And nobody gives it a second thought that they were lied to.

None.

No member of today’s Obama-Hillary-DNC ABCNNBCBS news media has displayed integrity nor honesty nor morality.

How far up the chain?

I bet it goes right to Jarrett’s door.

I think you're exactly right.

So, now the regime has politicized the CIA?

These are bad guys to piss off. They can and will kill you. (ie: Dallas)

State Department insists “wait” is not the same as “stand down.”

I fully suspect SC Rep. Trey Gowdy and Company will get to the bottom of the barrel on this. Four Americans are dead. Accountability must be determined. Heads must roll.

Absolutely, heads must roll and like you I believe Rep. Gowdy is the man that can get to the truth.

Bill O’Reilly insisted that Leon Panetta knows exactly whence the stand-down order emanated but won’t talk. He may have good reason to be afraid to talk.

IF what seems fairly obvious was going on really was - a black-ops arms-running project to Syria, etc - then it’s likely to get much darker still, especially in view of the accession of ISIS to power in Iraq since then. It isn’t difficult to imagine just how very hard they’re going to try to clamp down on that if it’s the case.

Agreed, and there is a fair amount of evidence that supports it.

If in fact it eventually comes out that 0bama was arming ISIS or the group or groups it was formed from he and his co-conspirators will have he** to pay and rightfully so.

Howdy will be set out like Uriah. The GOP has no interest in pursuing Treason and Murder in the Oval Office. Afraid to be called racist, doncha know.

“So, now the regime has politicized the CIA?”

From the comments here it appears that no one listened to the press conference in which the parents of Navy Seals killed in the attack on the unarmored and un-covered Extortion 17 helicopter, filled with Seal Team 6 operators and a half dozen Afghan soldiers who were misidentified on the flight manifest. Our military rules of engagement have required sharing tactical information with Afghanistan’s military. Any Afghan soldier who doesn’t betray the U.S. is likely violating Sharia.

If you listened you heard the retired Commander of the Pacific Fleet, founder of the “Red Cell” intelligence division within the Navy Seals,, James Lyons say unequivocally that John Brennan converted to Wahhabi Islam during the late 90s when Brennan was CIA Chief of Station in Riyadh. This was also reported by the author of the first terrorist training manuals during his 12 years (from memory) in the FBI, John Guandolo. Guandolo was purged by Brennan at the request of CAIR, part of the Muslim Brotherhood, which includes ISNA and ISIS and ISEL and al Qaeda.

Our CIA has been wrong, and on the wrong side of many issues for many decades. “Homeland” fans will have noticed the scene when the principals had to wait for a senior CIA bureaucrat to finish a Muslim prayer session in CIA Headquarters. Those who have read the Qur’an and or Reliance of the Traveler know that Jihad, the war to convert or eliminate all non-believers, is the highest objective of a Muslim. Killing to promote Islam guarantees heaven, not just for the perpetrator, but for his or her entire family. No Muslim can swear sole allegiance to our Constitution because Sharia abrogates all articles and amendments to our Constitution for a “good” Muslim. Believe Turkey’s Prime Minister when he explains that there is no such thing is an “Islamist” or Militant Muslim. There are only Muslims; rejecting Islam is punishable by death.

Bingo.
And if on Thursday, rogue airplanes invade our space, I am confident that our fighter jets will be asked to stand down.
Eleven airplanes stolen by brennan and obummers people. And not a peep.
