"...watch this very short video...Looks like Bill Still, about Benghazi, sting[er] missles …"

We had taken a pretty good look at this situation at the time, should be some threads floating around. This may be part of the story but Im not sure how to merge it with what we knew then. Before I go any further I need to say that the idea that the State Department wouldn't have sold some to Libya just doesn't hold water, its not as though it would be the first time the State Department allowed some counter productive and potentially dangerous sales. Also, its not as though Libya was still the rabid dog in that area that many people remember, Muammar had been brought to heel after we accidentally dropped that bomb through his bedroom ceiling.

Putin was complaining to anyone that would listen that Benghazi was a clandestine arms distribution hub and that shipments of weapons were going to Turkey and being manifest washed before being sent most likely to Syria.

Putin obviously has his own motivations for pushing a particular narrative but elements pointed to there possibly being some truth to what he was saying.

The mob that attacked was, at least to a significant part if not entirely, an Al-qaeda branch and that during the attack stingers warehoused nearby had been taken by Al-qaeda. (I cant remember if the number being kicked around was 2000 or 20000, ultimately it doesn't make a difference as even 1 in the hands of AQ is too many.)

There was no provable connection to the missles at the time but it seemed unwise to forget that Raila Odinga, Obamas "cousin", was connected to Al-Qaeda and having cover in the form of another government doing distribution throughout AQ forces sure would have been convenient.

At least some of these arms were shortly thereafter intercepted in Egypt by those the administration insisted were our good friends, the Muslim Brotherhood. And of course the Moslem Brotherhood is synonymous with both the Clinton and Obama administrations and "our good friends" weren't just in the White House and Egypt, they were also in Syria.

Seems to me to be more likely that the attack was nothing more than cover to complete the distribution phase of an arms deal that would allow the Obama admin, and of course Hillary, to appear faultless in the transfer and find another way to ship the arms other than sending them through Turkey.

Was a CIA stash in Quatar directly linked to this event somehow? I don't know. Its possible that this warehouse needed more product for its sales floor. Maybe some of the supposed shipment stolen from Benghazi made it to Afghanistan. Maybe it wasn't the same shipment at all and there had been others. It could be that everything we thought we knew then was false information also.

Theres still too much to know, too many incongruent facts and coincidences, to accept this videos version as being the whole story.

Thank you for the additional. I have snips and bits of memory abut the Benghazi and Libya destruction; and I agree that Bill Still’s synopsis is for sure not the whole story. Someone posted a link to the entire Sill youtube, which I have not watched yet.

I remember reading at the time that someone in the terrorist mob attack said “Morsi sent us”.

The destruction of Libya, and the attack and deaths of US citizens in that attack must be exposed and those responsible must be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Gaddhafi had definitely become tame, to the point of providing, from what I read, intel to western countries about jihadis. Maybe that is one of the many reasons Hitlery and 0bola wanted to destroy him. I cannot think of this without anger and feeling sick to my stomach (and note my tagline).

And where is Gaddhafi’s $6 billion in gold?? And the CIA people in the annex whose lives were saved by American heroes?
