Militia Hired by State Dept. Warned It Wouldn’t Protect Stevens’ Movements in Benghazi
Cybercast News Service ^ | May 1, 2013 | Terence P. Jeffrey

The February 17th Martyrs Brigade, a Benghazi-based militia with Islamist elements that the State Department hired as a “quick reaction force” (QRF) to protect the department’s mission in Benghazi, warned the State Department that it would not protect the movements of Amb. Chris Stevens when he visited there last September.

That warning was relayed to the regional security officer (RSO) at the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli—the top security adviser to the ambassador—in an internal State Department email dated Sept. 9, 2012.

That was one day before Stevens departed Tripoli for Benghazi—for what was scheduled to be a five-day visit. …

This is nothing we didn't already know. They threw down their weapons and ran away after telling the attackers where to find the 'safehouse'.

Anyone who calls this anything less than premeditated murder is a liar.

Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.

It’s gonna be an interesting week next week-—the 8th lands on Bath-House Barry’s regular “party-night”...he’s gonna need more blow.

The story that Ambassador Stevens was sent to Benghazi to be kidnapped so BHO2 could have an October Surprise heroic rescue right before the election, sounds ever more plausible.

With the ambassador’s death, never mind the three others? Sounds more like they were all caught with their pants down.

Why would we hire an outfit with a name like “February 17th Martyrs Brigade?” Yes, going out of our way to hire foxes for the chicken coop.

“Stand down” ... Ambassador Stevens will be defended by a Benghazi-based militia with Islamist elements ...

So, our State Department accidentally ordered the “quick get-away” protection package when we should have bought the “Ambassador” level?

Yes, but they apparently missed the bit where the militiamen would be the ones engaging in a quick getaway.

Either that, or Hillary is just a crooked politician that thinks she is smarter than everyone else.

I think Hillary tried to do an 'end around' on Obama and Jarrett, in her position as SOS, and she got bit, so she quit.

The 'hit squad' didn't take Stevens, dead or alive, leaving him to the local protesters. Kidnapping was not in their plans.

P.S. I also have reason to believe that the Bengahzi survivors are former 'terrorists' that the 'cia' (Hillary's State Dept 'covert intelligence arm') was protecting because they were being 'flipped'. To the Islamists, those people are traitors.

It would explain why they are being kept hidden and not allowed to talk to the media.

Sorry...gotta agree with Satin Doll.

I think it was to be an exchange of one “prisoner” for another-Blind Sheik- (to make Barry look good prior to the election) and the mooselimbs got pissed when the good guys went to rescue our Ambassador and others, thinking Barry had gone back on his deal with them.

"Militia Hired by State Dept. Warned It Wouldn’t Protect Stevens’ Movements in Benghazi, ..."

....I just put on my tinfoil hat for a few moments and this is what I thought.....

..... If there is proof of all of this that will make it into the public foray of thought ..... Then I fear that this administration will have to create and may have already planned a rather large event .... a diversion to force any coverage of this information from surfacing into the news cycles by over-shadowing it by the magnitude of the planned event. This information may actually tarnish the halo of the chosen one casting a pall over his reputation. So they may be forced to stop at nothing if they plan to knock this info into the gutter and they may be also forced to move quickly ... probably soon if the information is already beginning to surface!

I think it is important to find out how much
Feb 17 MartyrsBrigade was being paid,
so we can decide for ourselves
if their gripes were legit.

remember that Biden thinks the issue was money.

Unfortunately a majority of the sheep don't know who that "Ben Gazi" guy is let alone the coverup.

To them Fast & Furios was a Vin Diesel movie. With a compliant msm kneeling before him he has no need.

They are planning/ hoping for another event to use to consolidate police state powers but this is small potatoes.
