News also just out Gen. Ham (Africom) getting replaced.
The administration may have found their scapegoat.
FYI
Whatever ... too late ... 4 men are dead ... murdered.
If they get ANY punishment ... the zero needs to be in chains ..
FIRST !!!
I heard a story today from someone inside the military that I trust entirely. The story was in reference to General Ham that Panetta referenced in the quote below.
quote:
“(The) basic principle is that you don’t deploy forces into harm’s way without knowing what’s going on; without having some real-time information about what’s taking place,” Panetta told Pentagon reporters. “And as a result of not having that kind of information, the commander who was on the ground in that area, Gen. Ham, Gen. Dempsey and I felt very strongly that we could not put forces at risk in that situation.”
The information I heard today was that General Ham as head of Africom received the same e-mails the White House received requesting help/support as the attack was taking place. General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon that he had a unit ready.
General Ham then received the order to stand down. His response was to screw it, he was going to help anyhow. Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.
Shit just got real...
Scapegoats for the greater good - to take the blame that Panetta, the 'Beast and most of all, der 0berFurhrer Hussein 0bama, should be answering to!
Possibly not based upon this paragraph:
“The Stennis group deployed from Bremerton in late August and had entered the Navy 5th Fleet’s area of operations in the Middle East on Oct. 17 after sailing across the Pacific. The Stennis made port visits in Thailand and Malaysia on its way to the Middle East.”
No mention if it is in the Med or somewhere near the Persian Gulf, which is also the Middle East
Perhaps a sign that honorable military men are disagreeing with
their ‘political officers’ and are getting sacked for that.
Grooming the scapegoat most likely. The buck rolls downhill.
It is highly unusual for the Navy to replace a carrier strike group commander during its deployment.
“She’s gonna blow!” I just found this, it rings true.
Interesting Rumor Concerning General Carter Ham and Stand Down Order (Posted on 10/26/12 at 9:45 p.m.)

The story continues that now General Rodiguez would take General Ham’s place as the head of Africon.
I found this story when I got home after hearing this story.

General Rodigues Nominated as Head of Africon
As I was typing this I heard John Bolton on Greta say that there are conflicting reports of General Ham’s comments on this tragedy and why a rapid response unit was not deployed. Bolton says someone needs to find out what Ham was saying on 9/11/12.
Interesting to say the least.
There are a lot of Benghazi “leaks” comming from somewhere and it usually comes from someone at a lower level that’s in the chain of knowledge. The first thing the top of the chain politician does is go after those areas they suspect are challanging their decisions.
Does zero really think that high ranking, deployed (as opposed to Pentagon brass like powell) officers are going to take the heat for zero’s and clinton’s mismanagement???
“Night Of The Long Knives?” Euphemistically speaking that is.

The Zero is on a purgapalooza ala Joseph Stalin?
So we are blaming the military for Benghazi? This just gets worse and worse. God help us all.
Bump for later.
I’m suspicious he had a problem with his zipper.
