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.

I recommend caution in believing this. It may be true. or it may be the classic Clintonian move of spreading rumors of a much-worse scandal and then disproving them in an attempt to deflect attention from the already existing facts, and puncture the credibility of those who believed the made up rumors.
This may be true and it may be false but either way it’s better to wait a bit of confirmation,
“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.”
PRESSURE FROM WHO?! Either Obama or Hillary is going to be ruined because of this information.
Watch out its almost certainly *not* stinger missiles. If u spread that the left will fallaciously claim the WHOLE story is bunk —it is not. The missiles are almost certainly all soviet derivatives.
Hopefully there are still true patriots willing to expose the truth.
Fruit of the Loom just pulled up at the White House loading dock with an emergency order...
This is interesting. So, the thugs in Libya didn’t have enough anti-aircraft missiles when they took over the 20,000 from Qadaffi? Or were these American made Stinger anti-aircraft missiles that the thugs in Libya needed to shoot down those crop dusters the Libyan Air Force had so the thugs could then steal those 20,000 Libyan anti-aircraft missiles to use against? It just gets curiouser and curiouser. Missile....missile......who has the missile?
The missiles were SA-7 and SA-24 and almost certainly NOT sting era.
This is the thread to pull on, particularly based on the fact that NO media outlet has gone there yet.

I’ll believe it when I see it....if PLM found them so won’t the Oboma and Hillary machine. Threats work...for them.
Reminds me of the children’s rhyme....
“Who gave the missiles to the terrorists?
Hillary gave the missiles to the terrorists!
Who gave the missiles to the terrorists?
Obama gave the missiles to the terrorists!
Who gave the missiles to the terrorists?
The Democrats gave the missiles to the terrorists!”
Yes, the rebels took control of Libya’s missiles, and imho Stevens was negotiating for the Turks to help get some of them to the rebels in Syria, since Libya was basically already taken down. I also think the “Libyan Brotherhood” wasn’t too happy about dealing their weaponry away and put a stop to it, “toot sweet.”
As carney said about another shoe:
This is the equavilent of the Birth Certificant!!!!
You betcha! Both are con jobs covered by lies
Kind of like when CBS’s Bob Schieffer said Clinton was in a “purple-faced rage” at Ken Starr when he was video-taped at his dispostion hearing...
Only to have everyone watch anticipating the theatrics only to have Clinton answer all the questions calmly...
To this day, Schieffer has never answered for that out-right lie.
The term stinger is being used as conceptual shorthand for the non-technical dummies of the public. This huge program was highly covert and provision of real US gear would preclude plausible deniability.
People should use the term MANPADS.
they’re are playing fast and loose with terms and later the left will USE that.
WORDS MEAN THINGS.
Beware of false leads. The Dems are very good at this: leaking false info for you to parade out in public and then proving you wrong, making you look foolish, thus redirecting away from the truth.
I do like, though, the drip-drip-drip of info as it keeps the narrative going so the White Hut cannot say the info's old/it's time to move on, etc.
It’s not an “exclusive” when all you are saying is that someone is going to say something important very soon. When they get around to actually reporting something, then it could be an exclusive, but this is just a teaser.
