Benghazi, email probes plow ahead after Clinton testimony
November 24, 2015 ^ | MATTHEW DALY

Posted on 11/28/2015 8:00:54 PM PST by bitt

Nearly five weeks after Hillary Rodham Clinton's marathon testimony on the 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya, several investigations into the deadly assault and Clinton's use of a private email account and server are going full bore — and likely will continue into the presidential election year.

Republicans on the House Benghazi panel were traveling to Europe, while Senate investigators continue to probe Clinton's use of a private homebrew email server for business purposes and her decision to delete messages she deemed personal. Clinton served as secretary of state during the Benghazi attacks that killed four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens, and now is the Democratic front-runner for president.

"Rep. Lynn Westmoreland, R-Ga., who is going on the European trip, said it was for research on Benghazi.

"So this thing is not over," he told supporters in Georgia earlier this month. "And I promise you one thing: We are going to tell you what really happened, and all the consequences that went with it, and let you know if we are prepared for another situation that can possibly come up in the Middle East or anywhere else in the world where we have our men and women working for this country.""

How'd that work out for Nixon baby? Oh, that's right, you got fired from that investigation for lying and unethical behavior!

Funny how life repeats! Maybe Martha Stewart can give you some cell decorating tips!

I know it was election season and Obammie couldn’t take any bad press during his campaign but leaving these Americans to die waiting for their countrymen to come to their aid is a disgrace. As Obama likes to say, “It’s not who we are.” I’m so ashamed of my country’s action or non-action during the Obama/Clinton Benghazi fiasco. It makes me sick.

Espionage doesn’t have to be that Hillary gave secrets directly to the enemy.

Espionage can be Hillary selling information to a business associate who in turn gives or sells that information to the enemy.

Espionage can be Hillary Clinton intentionally allowing her communications to be intercepted by the enemy.

Not all traitors are ideologically or religiously motivated.

Many traitors just want money.

“...prepared for another situation that can possibly come up in the Middle East or anywhere else in the world where we have our men and women working for this country.”

Westmoorland gets it. It’s about people working in country for us, representing our country. For us to not protect them by allowing a criminal to be sec state, a woman so corrupt that she would not consider that Chris Stevens was not her personal mercenary, but a servant to we the people, demands rectification. It will ever go away until it is fixed no amount of Clinton cover up will ever erase the fact that he was an ambassador in country and the country people killed him. Murdered him

He had protection and they were killed too. He should have had more. Anyone who voted this seditious gang into power should e ashamed but history will show this was a major event.

Anyone in congress who gets that simple fact will not be able to let this case go

This crap is laughable.

We thought the Obamas could spend money traveling around the world.

Now we have Senators “investigating” crap in Europe for stuff that happened in Africa that they will not do a damn thing about in North America.

Then the statements they make. “We will blah blah not on my blah blah the American blah blah blah not rest until blah blah sniper fire blah blah”. Same canned BS, sheeeeeeit.

Sheeeeeeeit, if only someone would write a book.

The Idiot's Guide to Chinagate

By Richard Poe

May 26, 2003

CHINA WILL LIKELY replace the USA as world leader, said Bill Clinton in a recent Washington Post interview. It is just a matter of time. Clinton should know. He has personally done more to build China's military strength than any man on earth.

Most Americans have heard of the so-called "Chinagate " scandal. Few understand its deadly import, however. Web sites such as "Chinagate for Dummies" and its companion "More Chinagate for Dummies" offer some assistance. Unfortunately, with a combined total of nearly 8,000 words, these two sites - like so many others of the genre – offer more detail than most of us "dummies" can absorb.

For that reason, in the 600 words left in this column, I will try to craft my own "Idiot's Guide to Chinagate," dedicated to all those busy folks like you and me whose attention span tends to peter out after about 750 words. Here goes.

When Bill Clinton took office in 1993, China presented little threat to the United States. Chinese missiles "couldn't hit the side of a barn," notes Timothy W. Maier of Insight magazine. Few could reach North America and those that made it would likely miss their targets.

Thanks to Bill Clinton, China can now hit any city in the USA, using state-of-the-art, solid-fueled missiles with dead-accurate, computerized guidance systems and multiple warheads.

China probably has suitcase nukes as well. These enable China to strike by proxy - equipping nuclear-armed terrorists to do their dirty work, while the Chinese play innocent. Some intelligence sources claim that China maintains secret stockpiles of chemical, biological and nuclear weapons on U.S. soil, for just such contingencies.

In 1997, Clinton allowed China to take over the Panama Canal. The Chinese company Hutchison Whampoa leased the ports of Cristobal and Balboa, on the east and west openings of the canal respectively, thus controlling access both ways. A public outcry stopped Clinton in 1998 from leasing California's Long Beach Naval Yard to the Chinese firm COSCO. Even so, China can now strike U.S. targets easily from their bases in Panama, Vancouver and the Bahamas.

How did China catch up so fast? Easy. We sold them all the technology they needed - or handed it over for free. Neither neglect nor carelessness are to blame. Bill Clinton did it on purpose.

As a globalist, Clinton promotes "multipolarity"-the doctrine that no country (such as the USA) should be allowed to gain decisive advantage over others.

To this end, Clinton appointed anti-nuclear activist Hazel O'Leary to head the Department of Energy. O'Leary set to work "leveling the playing field," as she put it, by giving away our nuclear secrets. She declassified 11 million pages of data on U.S. nuclear weapons and loosened up security at weapons labs.

Federal investigators later concluded that China made off with the "crown jewels"of our nuclear weapons research under Clinton's open-door policy - probably including design specifications for suitcase nukes.

Meanwhile, Clinton and his corporate cronies raked in millions.

In his book The China Threat, Washington Times correspondent Bill Gertz describes how the system worked. Defense contractors eager to sell technology to China poured millions of dollars into Clinton's campaign. In return, Clinton called off the dogs. Janet Reno and other counterintelligence officials stood down while Lockheed Martin, Hughes Electronics, Loral Space & Communications and other U.S. companies helped China modernize its nuclear strike force.

"We like your president. We want to see him reelected," former Chinese intelligence chief General Ji Shengde told Chinagate bagman Johnny Chung.

Indeed, Chinese intelligence organized a massive covert operation aimed at tilting the 1996 election Clinton's way.

Clinton's top campaign contributors for 1992 were Chinese agents; his top donors in 1996 were U.S. defense contractors selling missile technology to China.

Clinton received funding directly from known or suspected Chinese intelligence agents, among them James and Mochtar Riady who own the Indonesian Lippo Group; John Huang; Charlie Trie; Ted Sioeng; Maria Hsia; Wang Jun and others.

Commerce Secretary Ron Brown served as Clinton's front man in many Chinagate deals. When investigators began probing Brown’s Lippo Group and Chinagate connections, Brown died suddenly in a suspicious April 1996 plane crash.

Needless to say, China does not share Clinton's enthusiasm for globalism or multipolarity. The Chinese look out for Number One.

"War [with the United States] is inevitable; we cannot avoid it," said Chinese Defense Minister General Chi Haotian in 2000. "The issue is that the Chinese armed forces must control the initiative in this war."

Bill Clinton has given them a good start.

If this woman is not indicted on SOMETHING, there is no rule of law in this country. Two separate justice systems, one for the elite, one for the workin man.

I've never understood why we the people continue to place these rich oligarchs into power time and again. They don't have a damn clue how life in Joe-sixpack land operates.

The folks up in D.C. have lost all sense of “servants of the people”. It is partially our fault for raising these folks up on a pedestal time and again.

I don't give a rats patookie if someone enjoys wealth, what make me want to chew nails is because of their wealth, they fall into the mindset that they are the natural leaders of the common folk. We know better and we must do all in our power to protect these poor schlubs from themselves.

Burns me up, in the last election we had a guy during the republican primary season for congress running for Rep. Kevin Brady's (Rino) seat in The Woodlands, Texas.

He was a U.S. Marine, conservative as all get-out and would have unseated Brady and ended his love fest with John Boehner. Brady has voted lock step for Tarp, Bailouts, amnesty, every single debt ceiling, TPP...LMNOP and on and on.

The electorate voted Rino Brady back into office. I don't get it. I just don't get it.
