State Department Suddenly Discovers 1,300 Pages of Amb. Stevens’ Email
Breitbart ^ | October 20, 2015 | John Hayward

Posted on 10/20/2015 2:38:07 PM PDT by FoxInSocks

Just two days before Hillary Clinton’s testimony to the House Benghazi Committee, the State Department presented lawmakers with a huge trove of Ambassador Chris Stevens’ emails:

#BREAKING: The State Dept *just* delivered nearly 1,300 printed pages of new emails from Ambassador Chris Stevens. #Benghazi

— Benghazi Committee (@HouseBenghazi) October 20, 2015

Yesterday, Fox News obtained one of Stevens’ cables from July 2012, and found him pleading for decent security protection… a plea that fell on deaf ears in Hillary Clinton’s department.

In the July 9, 2012 cable, Stevens reported that, “Overall security conditions continue to be unpredictable, with large numbers of armed groups and individuals not under control of the central government, and frequent clashes in Tripoli and other major population centers.” The cable said 13 security personnel would be the “minimum” needed for “transportation security and incident response capability.”

But a congressional source said Patrick Kennedy, a deputy to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, turned down the request.

The cable sent under Stevens’ electronic signature shows that he was advocating for additional security and warning that the set-up did not meet State Department standards, as conditions deteriorated in the run-up to the attack that killed Stevens and three other Americans.

As Fox News goes on to note, the terrorist-infested wasteland Clinton and Obama transformed Libya into was the scene of 243 security incidents in the year before Stevens’ murder on 9/11/12, fifty of them occurring in Libya…

95% of State Dept. employees should be fired. The other 5% hung.

Why does Clinton look like he has anorexia? Stick-like arms.

He’s gone vegan (not a joke).

You’re welcome. Of course the schedule is subject to change if she gets drunk and falls on her head again between now and Thursday.

Some people just aren’t meant to be thin. Clinton needs more weight on him; he looks like a cadaver.

No, we don’t want printed. We want to see the metadata.

"Do you know where Ghadaffi's large hoard of gold went?"

LOL, I'm more concerned with lead than gold, but you're right, that one's up there.

She never saw them will be her excuse.

It will be interesting to see the slug line on the cable and who was the drafter and who signed off on it. Normally, the RSO drafts the cable at post and depending on the importance of the information, the Ambassador signs off on it. It could be slugged for Assistant Secretary for Security or possibly SecState.

Based on the various tags, I have no doubt that Secstate was info'd on the cable, which would be handled by Hillary's staff. Whether they brought it to her attention is another matter.

The release of the cables at this late date hurts the committee more than Hillary. If they had those cables, they could have asked Huma Abedin, Jake Sullivan, and Cheryl Mills about them. And other witnesses could have been called. This helps Hillary.

Oh, here’s one! Let’s see... Hmm, it says...

“The public will never believe the innocence of the Hillary Clinton and her loyal staff.
Signed, Ambassador Stevens”

No really, it says that!

I’m sure this will change her testimony. Instead of just repeating the phrase “I don’t recall”, she will probably now add “I don’t recall that, either” to the mix.

My understanding is that Stevens was conducting a “buyback” program to ship Ghadaffi’s captured weapons to Syria among which were thousands of ManPADs.

I wasn’t aware of this...this seems to more like what was going on....I knew that Stevens and the other three were not going to be left alive to say what really happened, this makes more sense...thank you!
