More whistleblowers will emerge shortly in the escalating Benghazi scandal, according to two former U.S. diplomats who spoke with PJ Media Monday afternoon.
These whistleblowers, colleagues of the former diplomats, are currently securing legal counsel because they work in areas not fully protected by the Whistleblower law.
According to the diplomats, what these whistleblowers will say will be at least as explosive as what we have already learned about the scandal, including details about what really transpired in Benghazi that are potentially devastating to both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
The former diplomats inform PJM the new revelations concentrate in two areas — what Ambassador Chris Stevens was actually doing in Benghazi and the pressure put on General Carter Ham, then in command of U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) and therefore responsible for Libya, not to act to protect jeopardized U.S. personnel.
Stevens’ mission in Benghazi, they will say, was to buy back Stinger missiles from al-Qaeda groups issued to them by the State Department, not by the CIA. Such a mission would usually be a CIA effort, but the intelligence agency had opposed the idea because of the high risk involved in arming “insurgents” with powerful weapons that endanger civilian aircraft.
Hillary Clinton still wanted to proceed because, in part, as one of the diplomats said, she wanted “to overthrow Gaddafi on the cheap.”
This left Stevens in the position of having to clean up the scandalous enterprise when it became clear that the “insurgents” actually were al-Qaeda – indeed, in the view of one of the diplomats, the same group that attacked the consulate and ended up killing Stevens.

Bush’s fault......
Nope - all Oklahoma, all the time. A few reporters are mad over the stolen emails and surveillance but, overall, they are still drunk on the Kool-Aid.
Nothing to see here, folks, move along... When it comes to news,the low information voter has an attention span of two days at most. The MSM has now steered them on to Oklahoma and by Friday it will be on anything else but Obama scandals.
Selling heat seeking missiles to an enemy who has already killed 3000 Americans is T-R-E-A-S-O-N!
Time for some hemp neckties.
if accurate, this will come out in testimony at hearing which won’t take place until Oklahoma twister has faded from the news cycle.
Sure, they’ll find something else to shout, “Look, squirrel!” about, the truth will eventually come out. It usually does.
