(FNC) Exclusive: Cable warning of Benghazi consulate vulnerability would have gone to White House,
FOX News ^ | November 5, 2012 | Catherine Herridge

Posted on 11/05/2012 7:02:16 AM PST by maggief

Current and former intelligence officials tell Fox News that a classified State Department cable sent Aug. 16 -- and which said the Benghazi consulate could not defend against a "coordinated attack" -- would certainly have gone to the White House National Security Council staff.

"The National Security Council sees everything," a former senior intelligence official told Fox News. "The staff are sitting on top of all the cable traffic which means the national security advisor (Tom Donilon) and deputy national security advisor (Denis McDonough) have some explaining to do. If Libya was of interest to this administration, the national security staff saw it."

(snip)

Fox News is told that in Jihadi web forums, the muddled narrative from the administration about the Benghazi attack has been seen as a victory. Walid Phares, a Fox News Middle East analyst, said, "All Salafi jihadists including Ansar al-Sharia and in various countries in Tunisia, in Libya, in Egypt, and also in Yemen, they perceive the attack in Benghazi not just as a victory for them, a successful one, and a model for future attacks."

....cables like this get hand carried to the POTUS. In our particular situation, that means Mama Jarrett. Nothing gets pass her, no one sees the little boy king without her clearance,no phone calls get pass her first......this is not to say Odungo was not aware, it’s to say he’s “sheltered”.

Its too late for any of this stuff.

The cable news channels are best turned off until Thursday. They will present no new news, and the will be acting like rabid hamsters today and tonight, and they will be even more frantic tomorrow.

Go vote. Get a drink. Relax.

Its over and aside from voting there is not a damn thing anyone can do to change a mind from this point on.

0 knew everything that he denies knowing. He refused, at all costs, to anger his buddies and co-religionists. The result was that soldiers and an ambassador of the country that he hates died.

I think this goes beyond the election and I cannot relax or dismiss Benghazi.

I would like Benghazi pursued further. I believe that crimes were committed and people need to go to jail. Also I believe that there is a lot to learn from this.

I am also deeply concerned about the several tens of thousand of shoulder launched anti-aircraft weapons that are unaccounted for.

Furthermore, this has the potential to shame the Clinton cabal into obscurity.

Remember, there is a man in California who is in jail for making a video. Pornographers run free, “artists” can put a cross in a glass of urine and stay out of jail, but a man is in jail for expressing a political viewpoint that was offensive to this muslim-friendly administration.

You know VJ would not authorize her puppet Obama to give the CBA to the military commanders to launch military support. If you recall she twice previously was successful in stopping Obama from green lighting the OBL raid.

"I think this goes beyond the election and I cannot relax or dismiss Benghazi."

No matter who wins this election, Obama as the present POTUS must answer to his utter negligence or treachery, I think the latter is the truth...why else would such lengths be taken to cover up such negligence?
