Internal emails show Clinton got detailed intel on 'planned' Benghazi hit
Fox News.com ^ | May 22, 2015

WASHINGTON – Internal State Department emails in the aftermath of the Benghazi terror attack show then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton received detailed information indicating the strike was planned by well-trained fighters, yet her office continued to push the narrative days later that it began "spontaneously."

The messages were among 296 emails released Friday by the State Department, in the first batch of emails to be made public from Clinton's tenure as secretary of state. Totaling 896 pages, the emails show a series of Libya dispatches Clinton received from a confidant, as well as the barrage of messages among her and her aides after Sept. 11, 2012.

Those messages depict the rapidly changing understanding of what happened at the U.S. compound that night, and the administration's internal struggle to settle on a public narrative.

We need to hang this on Hillary every chance we get.

She is the Supreme Liar in the Dirty Pants-suit.

Criminal negligence at the very least, this on top of the crime of hiding government emails. So when is she doing the perp walk? If you drive with merely a suspended license today you get arrested, even if the license was suspended for not paying a traffic ticket, yet this bitch gets to run for President with nary a worry.

Can she be charged for a hate crime knowing that this attacks were going to happen and a gay US ambassador was kidnapped and killed in the process ?

Of course not, elite liberals are immune to laws, a total double standard.

Hillary Clinton will get off Scott free like the Kennedy clan.

Hillary should be questioned like Ted Kennedy when Ted Kennedy left Mary Jo Kopechne in the car to to die.

Can we say Benghazi Chappiquiddick ?

“Bin laden is dead, GM is alive”.

The compound in Libya was attacked less than 2 months from Election Day. Romney should have won but failed to make his case or the case against Obama. Now many suffer around the world and in the U.S.

And now Hillary is his heir apparent.

Spit.

And they want to make this woman President? Can you imagine?

"President Clinton, the intel indicates ISIS has a nuclear bomb in the United states. We know where they are, we can take them out on your order and retrieve the bomb"

"DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM? I AM PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES! YOU SPEAK ONLY WHEN SPOKEN TOO! DONT EVER BOTHER ME WHEN I'M BUSY RAAAAH! I'M WITH MY GIRLFRIEND HUMA! LET THEM SHOOT OFF THE BOMB WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE! RAAAH!"

Deflate 1 p.s.i. from a football? Big trouble.

Steroids for a baseball player? Big trouble.

Teacher helps student cheat a test? Big trouble.

Conjure up a private CIA, overthrow a dictator whom you publicly boast of killing, smuggle arms and get four of your people killed, then lie about it..?

NO PUNISHMENT.

Worse is what she knew (or should have known) before the attack.

Egypt intelligence warns (on Sept 4th) of attacks on Israel, US embassies

Congress was warned about Libya last month 9-13-2012

Libyan president: 'No doubt' attack 'preplanned' (Magariaf on Face the Nation) 9-16-2012

"It was planned, definitely. It was planned by foreigners, by people who entered the country a few months ago. And they were planning this criminal act since their arrival," Magariaf said.

No demonstration before attack on US Consulate, source says 9-17-2012

"The intelligence source said no protests were happening before the attackers struck at about 9:35 p.m. local time last Tuesday. The account backs up claims by a purported Libyan security guard who told McClatchy Newspapers late last week that the area was quiet before the attack."

Source: Slain ambassador Stevens said he was on al Qaeda list 9-20-2012

WASHINGTON - In the months leading up to his death, Chris Stevens, the U.S. ambassador to Libya, worried about constant security threats in Benghazi and mentioned that his name was on an al Qaeda hit list, a source familiar with his thinking told CNN.

Go figure.

Who is protecting her and why?

I’m sure horny old Bill would like to see her disappear.

And these are the cleaned and scrubbed emails. Imagine what the deleted and destroyed emails say.

It’s ...er...heartwarming to know that when history is written, the American people will be compared to the Germans of the 30s in their willingness to not simply ignore, but actively praise evil people. See Rick Perry and Jeb Bush for two prominent examples beyond the usual fawning leftists that cater to Hillary!’s every whim.

Maybe her bad temper and her drinking problem will make her stroke out before 2016.

One can only hope...

Her lie was one thing. The fact that she left the Ambassador there knowing an attack was planned is another.

Let's be clear, these emails don't say that she knew ahead of time there would be an attack. But she should have.

“What difference, at this point, does it make?” ... Why does it matter?

Because it reveals a DREADFUL lack of competence, that’s why.

Knowing what was coming down the pike, and letting it happen ANYWAY, speaks of gross negligence and impaired judgment.

Everything since has gone downhill, with gathering speed, and a snowballing effect.

Maybe the snowball cannot be stopped. But maybe we CAN get out of the way of the much wider avalanche.

Herself, Madame Benghazi, the Cold & Joyless, has not made even the least suggestion of how to mitigate the coming damage. Does ANYBODY think Herself should be the pilot in 2017?

Herself is no Golda Meir.
