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.
snip...
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.
snip... likened it to the Mike Nichols film Charlie Wilson’s War about a clueless congressman who supplies Stingers to the Afghan guerrillas. “It’s as if Hillary and the others just watched that movie and said ‘Hey, let’s do that!’” the diplomat said.
He added that he and his colleagues think the leaking of General David Petraeus’ affair with his biographer Paula Broadwell was timed to silence the former CIA chief on these matters.

“What is coming and how much will stick?”
In the end the most egregious crimes will simply be downplayed as “white people’s complaints about Obama” instead of treated as the serious matters that they are. “Obama the Myth” has become much more important than “Obama the incompetent affirmative-action puppet installed to advance the Bolshevik agenda”. He believed his own hype until he was “corrected” on his “gay marriage” stance; the handlers pulled him aside and reminded him that he was simply a token, and better obey (which he did).
remember that it is State, not DOD, that must approve all exports of any item on the ITAR list...which means they can approve direct transfers of these items into Libya and distribute them...through shell companies just like CIA must do (if they do it with the correct paperwork)
DOD, CIA, anyone other than State must get State’s approval...
Former diplomats, hmmm....one of whom served in Iraq in 2004....hmmm.. with Petraeus?....hmmm....
Have been saying he got set up. Notice that she walked away not just unscathed but with a proud,”I did it”, attitude.
It’s why females make good spies.
And thanks to John "there is nothing to fear" McCain.
As a Christian, I am not supposed to hate. This is as hard for me as anything that has come at me - not to hate that man. Patriots knew in our gut, that Obama was very bad news for our country.
“.....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.”
Whoaaa! If this is true then it kinda explains the rumor that the CIA is upset for taking it on the chin. They were against the missiles being given in the first place, they’re over ruled, then their explanation of what happened is altered, and they’re blamed.
My only question...in fact many are asking...General Petreaus...have you no courage to stand up and tell the truth? Why are you silent? Why are you in your silence supporting the people who betrayed you?
If true, what is being revealed here could complete the circle-it could give us the answer to the question as to why, up until now not satisfactorily answered, there never was any thought given to rescuing those in danger after the ambassador was murdered.
So, we would then have at least two dead Americans who died in the name of protecting dear leader’s election chances.
Extra-legal activity? Check.
Cover-up? Check.
Conspiracy? Check.
Motive? Check.
Treason. Provable treason. Hillary and Obama.
Of course but they had to get rid of Quadaffi first
“...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.” “
Please, someone help me here. I thought Ham denied this. So, Ham sent a rescue team that was only hours away? What happened, was the rescue team brought back? Did they embark?
It makes sense to me, from the way the navy seals and other rescue teams opporate, that these forces are on alert 24/7. They deploy in minutes to anywhere. Would make sense that at some central command we would know immediately who was the closest. With all the ships in the area, you would think one was minutes if not an hour or two away.
I’M ASKING. IS THERE NO ONE IN OUR MILITARY WHO WILL COME FORTH AND TELL THE TRUTH? ARE YOU THAT AFRAID OF LOSING YOUR PENSION, BEING AUDITED BY THE IRS ETC? WHERE IS OUR STONEWALL JACKSON, TECUMSUH SHERMAN?
WHERE IS PATTON?
Tony Rezko is Syrian, and a property manager who was indicted for pay to play kickbacks to politicians from businesses.
Rezko worked for Jabir Herbert Muhammad, the former manager of Muhammad Ali and the son of the late Nation of Islam leader, Elijah Muhammad.
Meanwhile Valerie Jarrett's income in 2008 apparently included a $300,000 salary and $550,000 in deferred compensation from The Habitat Executive Services Inc.
This appears to be a property management company among possibly other business lines.
Rezko had told a court that he had no access to money from overseas but per wikipedia he received a $ 3.5 million dollar wire transfer from Lebanon. Apparently he got jailed over this.

“How many of these weapons are floating around now and in whose hands?”
I wonder if one made it to Kyrgyzstan and took out that KC-135 Tanker?

The last indictment in Operation Board Games before Blagojevich himself was indicted was that of William F. Cellini who was indicted for conspiring with Rezko to shake down Chicago-based Capri Capital to get a substantial contribution to Blagojevich in exchange for allowing Capri to manage $220 million in the Teachers Retirement System. After Thomas Rosenberg of Capri threatened to tell authorities, the plan was abandoned.[28] Capri has substantial investments in the Watergate complex and King Abdullah Economic City.
Ties to Barack Obama [edit]
History [edit]
In 1990, after Barack Obama was elected president of the Harvard Law Review, Rezmar Corp. offered him a job, which Obama turned down. Obama instead took a job with the firm of Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Galland,[29] which primarily worked on civil rights cases. The firm also represented Rezmar and helped the company get more than $43 million in government funding. The firm's former senior partner, Allison S. Davis, later went into business with Rezko and, in 2003, was appointed to the Illinois State Board of Investment by Governor Blagojevich at Rezko's request.[7][30] On July 31, 1995, the first ever political contributions to Obama were $300 from a lawyer, a $5,000 loan from a car dealer, and $2,000 from two food companies owned by Rezko.[31] Starting in 2003, Rezko was one of the people on Obama's U.S. Senate campaign finance committee, which raised more than $14 million.[7] Rezko organized an early fundraiser for Obama that Chicago Tribune reporter David Mendell claims was instrumental in providing Obama with seed money for his U.S. Senate race.[2] Obama in 2007-2008 identified over $250,000 in campaign contributions to various Obama campaigns as coming from Rezko or close associates, and said that he donated almost two-thirds of that amount to nonprofit groups.[32][33]
Treason is the reason......
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.

Rezko headed the 2002 campaign finance committee for Stroger. Stroger appointed Rezko's wife, Rita, to the Cook County Employee Appeals Board, which hears cases brought by fired or disciplined workers. The part-time post pays $37,000 a year.[2] A Rezko company had a contract to maintain pay telephones at the Cook County Jail under Stroger. The Chicago Sun-Times puts Rezko's contributions to Stroger at $148,300.[citation needed]
Regardless of these possible revelations, much of which had been figured out here on FR before the first night of this debacle was over, the key is still to find out exactly where Obama was that night and what he was doing.
Hillary, Biden, Panetta,Petraeus and General Dempsey are all up to their eyeballs in this, but Zippy is the CinC.
