New Benghazi whistleblowers are prepared to reveal shocking details about the Sept. 11 terror attack, including why U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens was in Libya to begin with, two former U.S. diplomats reportedly told PJ Media on Monday.
The unidentified whistleblowers are reportedly colleagues of former diplomats and are seeking legal counsel because they “work in areas not fully protected by whistleblower law,” the report adds.
More from PJ Media’s exclusive:
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.”
One of the most important unanswered questions about the Benghazi attack has been why Stevens was in Benghazi on the anniversary of the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. If the whistleblowers’ information turns out to be credible, it could be a huge break in the investigation into what really happened.
According to PJ Media’s report, Clinton’s plan to reaquire the stinger missiles left Stevens with the responsibility to handle the aftermath of the alleged gun-running operation after it was clear that the “insurgents” in Libya were really radical Islamists aligned with al-Qaeda.
The former diplomat who reportedly talked exclusively with PJ Media, likened the Obama administration’s plan in Libya to the amateurish covert war depicted in the Mike Nochols film, “Charlie Wilson’s War.” The movie tells the story of an arrogant Texas congressman, Charlie Wilson, who supplies Stinger missiles to the Afghan guerillas to help them fight the Soviets.
“It’s as if Hillary and the others just watched that movie and said ‘Hey, let’s do that!’” the diplomat reportedly said.
Here’s the trailer for Charlie Wilson’s War” for context:
“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,” PJ Media reports.
It is unclear at this point if the unidentified “whisteblowers” are credible, however, TheBlaze will continue monitoring this developing story.
“PJ Media recognizes this is largely hearsay, but the two diplomats sounded quite credible. One of them was in a position of responsibility in a dangerous area of Iraq in 2004,” PJM’s report concludes.
GUNRUNNING
Obviously. Lots of us knew it would be about running weapons way back when Qadaffi was still alive.
Fast and furious, north Africa edition.
I figured from the beginning it was either a fast and furious type operation going on or it was a Blind Sheikh for Stevens swap(Since we had heard rumors about how the US was going to hand over the Blind Sheikh to Libya)
the story of an arrogant Texas congressman, Charlie Wilson
Odd, I didn’t find him arrogant in the movie at all.
Interesting slant they are able to put in, with out
trying at all.
Meanwhile, Congress is pushing for amnesty for uncountable illegal aliens.

Yeah I just saw it..didnt even know it happened til I came online
A new birth of Freedom and Liberty Islamic despotism.
Begs a question, though.
If this was a State Dept show, what was the purpose of the "annex" and the substantial CIA presence in Benghazi?
With all the scandals brewing if not boiling over, this Administration should be facing nothing but sleepless nights from here on in: but I have a hunch they have no choice but
continue to scramble to cover their collective asses, and all I can say is I hope there’s enough money (OUR money of course)to cover the spin doctors tasked with coming up with credible enough narratives to achieve that. No doubt, the true Teflon President, Barack Obama, will smile his way through this, continue partying and celebrating, and helping in the search for fall guys, valuable time he COULD be spending on the GOLF COURSE!!
What’s the point who is going to be punished for this no one. Obama and Hillary should be punished but they won’t be.
In case you missed it twice ping.
The bottom is about to drop out on this corrupt administration.
Hillary biggest fear is that General David Petraeus will come forth to substantiate this story. Petraeus has nothing to lose and could well be Hillary’s end.
What’s the point who is going to be punished for this no one. Obama and Hillary should be punished but they won’t be.

Not helpful.
I agree, but Rush said on Monday that there is no chance that this country will stand for the removal of the first black president (Obama) and the first black AG (Holder).
His comments pissed me off so much that I h ad to turn him off. It is time for the GOP to do a cup check and grow some balls.
My great aunt from Palestine, Texas (Mary Alta Harris )claimed to be one of Charlie Wilson’s many lovers. She was quite a character in that time and I never doubted her. She had some interesting stories about him and their “dalliance”.
no. the senate is very busy today pushing through amnesty for those they treat best, illegal aliens.
Push one for English.
It is thr truth. There will be no impeachment, because their would be riots from coast to coast.
Just because Obama won’t be impeached does not mean he won’t be exposed. There could be a few even going to jail.
