Obama, Hillary Knew Benghazi Was Terrorism And They Watched Our People Die
True Conservatives on Twitter ^ | October 25, 2012

Credibility: When President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton stepped into the Rose Garden the morning of Sept. 12, they likely knew the attack on our Benghazi consulate the day before was organized by terrorists.

They knew because they were likely privy to a flurry of emails among administration officials discussing the attack in real time. Yet they said nothing about what they knew and, worse, had done nothing to mount a rescue despite American forces being less than an hour away during the seven-hour blitz.

According to Fox News, 300 to 400 national security figures received these emails in real time almost as the raid was playing out and concluding. These people work directly under the nation's top national security, military and diplomatic officials.

The first email was sent at 4:05 p.m. Washington time, about 25 minutes after the attack began, with the subject line "U.S. Diplomatic Mission in Benghazi Under Attack (SBU)" It read: "Embassy Tripoli reports approximately 20 armed people fired shots; explosions have been heard as well. Ambassador Stevens, who is currently in Benghazi, and four COM (chief of mission) personnel are in the compound safe haven."

In the flurry of emails that fateful day and night, there was no mention of a protest turned violent by a little-seen, months-old Internet video trailer. But in a third email, sent at 6:07 p.m. to a distribution list that included the White House Situation Room and titled "Update 2: Ansar al-Sharia Claims Responsibility for Benghazi Attack (SBU)," was this gem: "Embassy Tripoli reports the group claimed responsibility on Facebook and Twitter and has called for an attack on Embassy Tripoli."

Granted, false claims of responsibility for terrorist acts are often made and must be verified.

The calculus involved in this may have been that Doherty and Woods’ had to die to save Odumbo’s presidency...

I thought it was something like 14 hours... from ‘protest’ start to death of our SEALS.

It would take 16 hours to fly to Benghazi from Tampa but that includes stops in London, Algiers and Tunis... I suspect if one of our military ‘obama shills’ had fueled up and flown from Tampa to Benghazi without layovers in London etc, they would have made it there with time to spare to save the lives of those good men. Also, there were plenty of US forces closer.

My example to only to point our what liars these people are... really, no effort was made to save the SEALS.
