If you open the gate and walk away so that anyone can take what is inside, then are you supplying weapons to the opportunists?

That's how I see it, also. Once the Obama administration supported the rebels in Libya and Ghaddafi was overthrown, the weapons the Ghaddafi regime had fell into rebel hands and who knows how many different brands of terrorists were involved.

This sounds like a hamhanded effort to get the portable missiles out of rebel hands and then they did everything wrong as the scehme started falling apart. And there could also have been weapons transfers to Syrian rebels involved.

Al Queda is not the Dems enemy. Given how the Dems have worked to make it easier for them to infiltrate our nation and they’ve given weapons and money to them, it’s quite obvious that the Dems are friends of AQ and should be treated as the traitors they are.

Still not sure why we even had to topple Libya? Who benefited. What is the bottom line agenda....

Turkey apparently was originally on the side of the Syrian rebels at the same time as the U.S. and backed away from them at the same time so perhaps that may have something to do with it. This is probably where we need Sibel Edmonds’s analysis.

Charlie Wilson’s War about a clueless congressman who supplies Stingers to the Afghan guerrillas

Said "clueless Congressman" helped destroy the Soviet Union.

And despite all the frantic hype those Stingers are long since inoperable since they require unique batteries.

Claims of Stingers provided to Libyan insurgents are probably not very credible, either.

Quadaffi had that Ukranian mistress per wikileaks. Was she a Russian spy? Notice Putin making arms deals with Assad and having that tense meeting with Netanyahu.

Ham was told by the White House not to send the aid to the trapped men, but Ham decided to disobey and did so anyway, whereupon the White House “called his deputy and had the deputy threaten to relieve Ham of his command.”

Has anyone heard reasons why General Ham seems to have disappeared? Since he retired, it would seem that he's free to testify with no worries that it could damage promotion possibilities.

He would be a key witness, but almost nothing is said about him one way or the other.

I find it difficult to believe they would be that stupid.

I don't - arrogance breeds stupidity. People feel they are too smart for anybody else, no matter how experienced in a field, to tell them anything. I think the CIA probably did not want to participate in this plan and that Obama simply did what he always does, which was just ignore the agency or entity responsible for doing a particular job in the government and have somebody else (illegally or at least irregularly) carry it out.

I do think this is all part of an overall plan to turn the ME over to the Islamists, with whom Barry and Valerie clearly feel a great bond, but I think that would be hard to prove.

However, this particular incident shouldn't be hard to prove, if somebody's willing to talk. It's so blatantly illegal that everybody knows there's jail time involved and I think they're wondering if Obama is really worth going to jail for. Once somebody starts to talk, they'll probably all talk.

State may have control over the list of weapons not to be sold to enemies, but to my knowledge, nobody ever said that State was supposed to sell or "distribute" them itself. And the unilateral decision that the Libyan "rebels," whom everybody knew even at the time to be al Qaeda linked, were no threat to us was certainly not their decision to make.

So instead they sidelined Defense (probably lying their little socks off about their actions to the complaisant wuss in charge of Defense) and tried to cut the CIA out altogether until possibly they needed help in controlling the weapons. Even then, it's possible that they were not honest about the source of the weapons, considering the vague "fell into the hands of rebels" explanation they gave out.

But this would explain a lot of things: their frenzy to cover it up, the inaction of the Defense Dept. and the freezing out of the military, and the confusion of the CIA. Since that time, I think Obama has been on a mission to remove, disperse or silence anybody who might know anything.

And while Hillary was no doubt the agent of this plan (hence her desperation), it came from one place only: Herr Obama, the smartest man in the room, who knows better than anyone else.

They made a very bad error of judgement.

Before providing the weapons the incompetent staties, did not confirm the recipients were friends.

Oh that’s right, raising money and not giving two thoughts about the sodomized and murdered Americans on his watch, that were not defended.

Pretty disgusting indeed.

I’m surprised by Ham’s disappearance, too. He’s retired, and I believe his wife has cancer (although that could mean anything, from being at death’s door to having something very early and very treatable). I think he was rather an Obama supporter, so maybe he simply doesn’t want to come forward.

“Ham was told by the White House not to send the aid to the trapped men, but Ham decided to disobey and did so anyway, whereupon the White House “called his deputy and had the deputy threaten to relieve Ham of his command.””

Does anyone know where this “rumor” started months ago?? Was it the WHI??? I remember it but can’t remember where I read it.

It would be interesting to know where it started because clearly that person had resources to know.

Agreed. If these reports are true, there will be very little wiggle room for Team Obama. Keep connecting the dots.

They [Obama, Clinton] let other men suffer unto death without lifting a finger to help, or even indicating a moment's regret for their inaction after the fact.
