This is NOT credible.
I an guessing that “O” passed the information along to his terrorist buddies, that the embassy was vulnerable.
I believe that he could NOT possibly have done such an abysmal job of handling the attack, UNLESS he was to some degree complicit IN the attack. THAT'S how much I distrust the ‘President’. THAT'S how little esteem and credibility he has with me!
I agree with your opinion. To add, AQ and other Islamists are steeped in conspiracy and would be quick to believe the operation was a double cross. The treatment of our Ambassador via rape was a fairly standard way of sending a message. IMHO.
There is only one person in the USA, that has the authority to send anyone to rescue these 4 people in Benghazi, and that person is the POTUS. And this POTUS had that opportunity to do the “RIGHT THING” and he declined that opportunity. What he did was to immediately found somebody to blame. And who did he put the “BLAME” on? Why, he blamed a non-descript US citizen, that had something on “FACE BOOK” movie that 99% of the world’s population hadn’t seen. And that man is still in jail on a trumped up charge. Meanwhile, everybody in this administration is ducking the real story of what really happened in Benghazi. What the real story of this sad event, is that OBAMA lost his “BALLS” Rather than doing the “RIGHT THING” and anger his MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD friends. Let’s face the facts. We have a coward as the POTUS of this country.
Wow.
Chilling, if true.
I wouldn’t put it past zero.
Nothing is covered up that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. Whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.
Amen and Amen ...
They started the ball rolling by killing and breaking things. There was no peaceful intent ever displayed before or after the two seals got involved.
They allowed this article in their website, but I doubt they will cover it on cable.
They served their country now it's time for them to save the country from Obama’s dishonorable dodging of the truth.
bttt
And they got one great conservative there with Bill Bennett.
We should take any conservative truth that sneaks into the CNN narrative. Too bad Bill is just a ‘contributive’ voice on their ‘opinion’ page.
He is one sharp man.
Still, it is just an opinion piece, not really “news”. I guess it’s better than nothing, though.
"Okay, Okay, Okay. Hello fellow democrats.
Here's my new campaign slogan and I think you will really like it:"
"What happense in Benghazi stays in Benghazi."
I can tell you it’s all over FB.
Mitt could say:
“This administration has has more than enough time to determine what THEY were doing and when.”
“Investigating what happened and why, in Benghazi, is NOT a precursor to the administration explaining to the American people, what happened in Washington, while American’s were calling for help in Benghazi!”
“We have a coward as the POTUS of this country.” Yes, but worse, he’s also a dirty little money-grubbing grifter. He’s covering up because he’s been using taxpayer money, personnel, equipment and facilities to overthrow governments in the Middle East so him and his buddies can make some money there. Why do you think the old media is so quiet about this? They’d be screaming from the rooftops if it was just because their guy is chicken. They are ashamed. They claim the Republicans are money hungry. Here’s their “higher calling” President and it turns out he’s just a dirty little money-grubbing grifter. Oooooh that stings at NBC.
About That Facility
As was noted on AT recently, a retired State Department Foreign Service Officer said: Our Benghazi facility was a half-baked operation. It was not a consulate. It was a facility with an ambiguous purpose, at least as far as the unclassified world is concerned.
If it was not a consulate, then it was not sovereign United States territory. This fact has important legal consequences as was only just touched upon (at ~13:00, but pick up at ~10:00 for full context) by Newt Gingrich on Fox News in his appearance on Greta Van Susterens Oct. 30 show (caution: auto-play).
One of these consequences may be that the United States had no legal authority under international law unilaterally to violate sovereign Libyan airspace by sending in a military force or by engaging attackers with U.S. aircraft, irrespective of the fact that U.S. citizens, including an ambassador, were the ones being attacked.
The purpose of this facility and its associated safe-house is increasingly becoming less ambiguous, as J.D. Longstreet points out:
That CIA safe-house has troubled me from the very beginning. ... What was the CIA doing there? There was no embassy in Benghazi. In fact, the building attacked was not even a consulate. If anything, it was a mission ... this was NOT an embassy.
It no longer reasonably can be denied that what was going on in Benghazi was Fast and Furious in the Maghreb being run by Ambassador Stevens, et al. at the direction of fill in the blank.
He continues:
A few weeks ago, there was a report that Libyan militia members had been ordered to turn-in the weapons that had been supplied them in their struggle to overthrow Qaddafi. That report confirmed that many of those weapons had been turned in. Where did those weapons go? Perhaps, to the Syrian rebels? It has been suspected for some time now that the US has been supplying small arms to the rebels in Syria for a while-even though the Obama Administration denies it.
Read the rest of that whole piece and see if you concur that there was a covert operation underway-one so black that sacrificing the lives of four Americans was deemed worth it by our leaders in Washington.
The central issue at the heart of the Benghazi fiasco and cover-up would appear to be that Team Obama cannot admit that it could not use the military to combat this attack on this black operation, the existence of which it cannot admit.
As put by Bob Owens:
Weve also heard claims about why Ambassador Stevens was in Benghazi to begin with: some sources suggest this was part of an Obama administration plot to arm Syrian rebels. ... If Ambassador Stevens was facilitating weapons transfers from Libya to Syrian Islamist forces aligned with al-Qaeda, via his Turkish alliance, then we are at a troubling, perhaps catastrophic point in this republics history. We have been at war with the Islamist hydra of al-Qaeda for more than a decade, and now sources are accusing a sitting president of arming this enemy.
In the words of Sir Walter Scott, Oh! what a tangled web we weave When first we practice to deceive!
Thus far, the consulate vs. facility issue, not surprisingly, seems not to have been noted elsewhere.

OK, but why? Why did we overthrow the government in Libya? To get weapons to send to Syria? Why would Obama do that? Why does he care who is running Syria? He’s a Democrat. Democrats only care about foreign affairs if they can gain a political advantage in the United States from them. What’s Obama’s political gain from overthrowing governments in Libya, Egypt and Syria? Obama isn’t a dyed in the wool Moslem. He is a money-grubbing Democrat grifter, though. His motive in this is really dirty. He’s just out to make some money for him and his buddies. Look at the three part story at illinoispaytoplay.com. It’s the money. Him and Hillary are never going to be happy with the chump change they get paid as President and Secretary of State. And their retirements? Please....their retirements are an insult to two “legends in their own minds” like Obama and Hillary. And future elections are never sure things. They’ve got to make money while they can spend taxpayer money to do it. They’re just dirty little grifters. For goodness sakes, remember when Hillary was taking tax credit for used underwear. These people want money!
That article even mentioned Jennifer Griffin’s reports on Fox News. LOL
CNN, careful there, you may just look reasoned by accident.
