Incompetence.
And fear / cya.
If this was THEIR October surprise, I think it has turned into one.
Maybe Obama was going to broker a deal to release the embassy hostages for his "October Suprise".
But the fit hit the shan in the fog.
Ding Ding Ding
While we are wetting our feet in this pool. what was the story in regards to the group that claims this attack? Reports that some sort of deal was in the making for releasing the blind sheik.
I contend this was an orchestrated kidnapping for the purpose of the swap that did not account for some Ex-Seals going rouge (in the administration’s estimation).
I agree. He was supposed to get captured and the One would then successfully rescue him and accept his crown as Messiah. Didn’t quite work out...Aww. Poor Obozo.
Several of us have posted this theory over the weeks...especially when it was leaked that the blind sheik may gain his freedom under some strange turn of events. Can you imagine, if this violence was unfolding and being watched by team Obama in real time? Can you imagine what they were thinking when our two ex-seals did not stand down? My God, what a screw-up.
... depends how you look at it.
I believe Obama would sacrifice American lives to garner more support from the “muslim voice”, the same group that was called upon to push Bush out of the way, making way for Obama. It is a horrific thought, but that is what has transpired.
This guy is the most divisive, destructive and anti America themed man that has ever hit the White House.
Pure criminal. There is nothing American about him.
As a fashionista I eschew tin foil hats....but I must agree with you here. The ambassador was sacrificed to propel Obama’s campaign...disgusting!
My burning question is where are the people who swore and oath “to protect and defend the United States....” They didn’t swear an oath to protect and defend Obama and Hillary. Will no one step up and scream the truth?!
Such as.......Why was Ambassador Stevens sent out to the wild and wooly frontier of Bebghazi where there was NO protection for him, at all?! What was he doing there,
in a city and area that was owned by Al Qaida?
Where was David Petraeus.....and furthermore, where is he NOW?!
Maybe the ambassador wasnt expecying it either. I mean, who would agree to such a bone-headed idea?
Look at the attackers at the annex. Also look at why Obama and Hillary would want government change in Libya, Egypt and Syria.
I think that the two former SEALS screwed up the plan. That is why Biden “says what he means, but shouldn’t” splurtted that one of the SEALS had balls the size of CUE BALLS. It was probably something that was said behind closed doors when they were cursing these brave men for trying to save the Ambassador.
Yeah, this whole episode stinks to high heaven. People will say, who would be brazen enough to try anything like this? That is crazy talk. Well, so was the Birth Certificate issue and Obama never ever settled that convincingly. We are dealing with evil, conniving liars who will try anything for power.
Maybe after Obama heard about the fire fight he was told that the only way to respond would be to bomb the blocks around the compound — killing about 400 men.
Or maybe ordering Special Forces into a battle would have little chance of saving our guys and result in high causalities. Dead bodies produced by his order with nothing to show for it would not look good on the evening news.
Also ordering military action in the newly liberated Libya would tarnish the narrative that “Al Qadea is on the run”. Obama probably felt that a US military response would be seen as “cowboyish”.
Why risk offending the Muslim world by violating Libyan sovereignty on a mission that probably wouldn’t help?
Better to quickly come up with the video cover story and kiss the SEALS and the Ambassador goodbye. It is only four lives. The higher purpose of ensuring a second term is at stake.
“As CIC sometimes I have to ask the troops to pay the ultimate sacrifice. Do they think they’re going to live forever? Hey, maybe I can get some rounds after the fund raiser in Vegas?”
I bet our brave SEALS took out a hell of a lot of Muslim Brotherhood jackasses. They came in from behind them and were able to get the Ambassador to the safe house. Was it actually back to their house? That exposes another lie of the administration that the Ambassador had a safe house to flee to.
This is a tangled web. Why have we not heard anything about the attackers fatalities?
