NYT: Captured Suspect Said Benghazi Attack Was Revenge For Anti-Islam Video
NY Slimes ^

Posted on 06/18/2014 3:36:23 PM PDT by TigerClaws

Ahmed Abu Khatallah, the suspect captured by U.S. special forces on Tuesday for his role in the 2012 Benghazi attack, reportedly said he was motivated in part by the anti-Islam online video made in America, according to the New York Times.

"What he did in the period just before the attack has remained unclear. But Mr. Abu Khattala told other Libyans in private conversations during the night of the attack that he was moved to attack the diplomatic mission to take revenge for an insult to Islam in an American-made online video," Times reporter David Kirkpatrick wrote in a story on Khattala on Tuesday.

Who did they let out of Gitmo in order for him to be captured and tell this line of BS?

He already WAS on the Obama team, and he is STILL on the Obama team.

KIDNAPPING GONE WRONG.

There are a million little things pointing towards this insane possibility but NO newsman is willing to talk about this.

A man who made Mexican narco-kingpins his allies in a gambit to roll back the 2nd Amendment:

Would he do THIS ALSO..?

Well of course he would.

And how did the Obama administration learn of this motivation within twenty-four hours of the murders...when they are speaking to this terrorist for the first time twenty-one months later?

What did they know and when did they know it...and how much of it could have been helpful in preventing the murders in the first place?

THE FOREIGNER wasted a whole lot of money on this lastest scam. That’s not even the issue in the BENGHAZI SCANDAL. That was only political cover for the regimes lack of responsiblity in taking care of the security before the attack and our people, after the attack

Isn't that special? Well I guess that closes down Trey Gowdy and his committee. Think of all the money we'll save.

The unbelievable arrogance of the hacks that populate our media and government. I guess with all their back slapping and high fiving of each other celebrating their roles as masters of the universe that haven't thought of the destruction they are doing to our society. And more to the point, they will not escape the destruction........their are only so many life boats.

The brazenness of this Regime is astounding.

Do you think Obama is going to surrender power at the end of his term?



America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

And they say torture doesn't work.

I think it is probably a set up. But it hits a wall. No one can say the video makes it right to murder four Americans, and no one can say that the extreme dereliction of duty by Obama/Clinton can be excused by any motivation in the minds of the terrorists.
