GOP congressman blasts NY Times Benghazi claims as ‘misleading’
Fox News ^ | December 28, 2013 | Fox

Posted on 12/28/2013 3:37:17 PM PST by xzins

A top congressional Republican is saying a new report that concludes Al Qaeda did not carry out the 2012 attack on the U.S diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, is “misleading.”

The new report published Saturday in the New York Times concludes that there was no evidence that Al Qaeda or other international terrorist groups had any role in the assault that took place on September 11, 2012, and that it appeared that the attack was fueled in large part by anger at an American-made anti-Islamic video, as the Obama administration first claimed.

New York Rep. Peter King, member and former chairman of the House’s Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, told Fox News the argument that the most overtly anti-Western militia, Ansar al-Shariah – not Al Qaeda – led the attack in an academic argument over semantics, considering Ansar al-Shariah is widely believed to be an affiliate terror group of Al Qaeda.

NYTimes attempts to rewrite history for Obama.

They even claim (again) that it was caused by the mohammed video.

Exactly:

Failed in Benghazi

Failed in Israel

Failed in Iran

Failed in Egypt

Failed in Egypt

Failed in Iraq and Afghanistan

And we’re going to be told she was a hero. It’s foolishness.

I just read the NY Times article. They clearly blame it on the video with the weak argument that it really was the video that had al-Sharia angry.

Nothing like rewriting history. I’m surprised they didn’t let “Law and Order” do it for them.

Sort of the definitive article on the al Quaeda link ... including Morsi’s Egypt and and Obama’s complicity:

Honestly, BoT, you don't expect the Slimes to do anything that in depth and logical do you?

NYTimes attempts to rewrite history for Obama.

And they did and are doing a great job. Ignorant Americans would still believe the Earth if flat. The greatest destructive power that have destroyed much of America is the MSM and Hollywood.

I caught the very end of a report on Fox with the talking head saying “Bombshell NY Times article”. I said to my wife “Probably a bombshell that clears Obama.”

There’s no doubt in my mind these rags get government subsidies.
