Who or what is this “intelligence community” that the Obama is administration is quoting when they tell us that this shadowy “intelligence community” told them that the attack in Libya was the result of a demonstration about a video.
Let’s be clear, the only people who have told the American people that the our ambassador and three others were killed in Benghazi as the result of a demonstration that got a little rowdy are people who claim that they’re only telling us what they were told.
Isn’t it convenient that the members of the intelligence community that gave such a spectacularly incorrect assessment of what went on in Benghazi are not identified? I would really like to know who these people are and how they managed to mislead the entire Obama administration for a full month. It is particularly telling that they stuck to their story despite the fact that people in the State Department were actually listening in on the attack. That other member of the State Department knew that it was a terrorist attack within 24 hours. That members or congress and the press knew that it was a terrorist attack even as Ambassador Rice went out to five Sunday morning news shows to lie. That even today Joe Biden tries to keep the lie alive that “we” didn’t know what the truth was. I guess it all depends on the meaning of the word “we.”
I hope someone in the press corpse asks the question: just who were these member of the “intelligence community” that were able to mislead the smartest President the world has ever known. We want names. We want to know if these same people also provide “intelligence” on exactly when Iran will have a nuclear weapon. It will give us an idea of just how worried we should be.
I don’t blame you for being suspect of this unnamed source in the congress.
But, I tend to give credit to the story since Petraus came out publically and denounced the freedom of speech when Rev. Jones burned the koran in protest of the Victory Mosque. Also Dempsey would not go out out on a limb with his little jihadi lying drama referenced in my post above, if he was not being backed up by Petraus.
The globalists are sympathic to jihad and both Petraus and Dempsey are globalists. We are screwed if the GOP does not wake up. They are going to hit us on US soil again because the guard is down with the Muslim Brotherhood and Soros.
First, my apology boots for butting in.
Sara, that is a statement of conjecture, an unknown.
Sometimes, one must rely on faith, then trust but verify.
That Crapper hack needs to be fired. Before doing so put him under oath.
mark...
I hear ya fellow freeper. But why hasn’t the House hearings actually called
Hillary, Clapper, Jay Carney, Betraus and put them under oath? Why haven’t
they called Susan Rice and put her under oath? Who told these hacks the
video was the reason for the attack? What memo was sent out to these hacks.
The GOP is dancing around the issue. Not looking for the real truth.
Put these high level hacks under oath.
trust but verify
The evidence is that these men are getting soldiers and civilians murdered by jihadists and they lie about it trying to cover up for the jihadists and place blame on Americans, rather than change course to protect Americans.
They have both stood up against the constitution’s first amendment (blaming freedom for jihad) in submission to Islam and it’s jihad and against America.
yes, do you have the power to call Congress into emergency session? Would Congress bother to listen if an emergency session was called? I’m discouraged too, Sara. The _resident would have to call an emergency session. What do you think zer0 is going to do? zer0 will not call an emergency session, of this, am certain. zer0, hillary, and panetta with the media have a coverup from which the facts have to be dug out. May those facts be dug out. Do not expect zer0 to call Congress back. It will not happen.
These colorless military bureaucrats aren’t really interesting. Petraeus could be just a unwitting if willing stooge.
No doubt the video story came right out of the White House with two hoped-for benefits: Sucking up to Muslims and attacking free speech.
Where is Robert Cardillo in this? He’s Deputy Director of Intelligence Integration for Petraeus.
How do we know the Military did not view the tape in real time, and if the Military watched and had the tape, can we thank them for not letting the tape be destroyed? Many unknowns. Am not willing to blame our Military till see something more. Do you have the truth for all here want the truth.
It’s unclear to me that the military was involved at all, at least in real time. DNI Clapper has been confused and has mislead plenty in the past.
And, definitely yes, it might have been the military that ultimately challenged the White House Youtube video story.
If the DoS was watching the attack in real time, as Ms. Lamb testified, then that means the White House Situation Room was also watching in real time. And If that is true, then the Pentagon was also watching as the consulate was attacked. Obama, Petraeus, Panetta, Clinton and their respective underlings.
That makes a couple of hundred people who know the truth.
Somebody must be willing to tell the straight story.
This is so huge, that if the LSM/MSM ever does their job, it will bring Obama down.
mmm...
Lamb was accused by Lt. Col. Andrew Wood as being personally responsible for nixing security.
Wall St. Journal sources said DNI Clapper and the White House wouldn’t accept first word of the Libya attack as planned terrorism.
See #57 - per Hunt, you would be correct in your assumptions.
Well, are the Clintons gonna roll over and take the ding for this debacle over this being bad intelligence (or lack of intelliegnce) to obama from HILLARY’s lavendar analysts at State?
It wasn’t an intelligence failure, it wasn’t a communications failure, and it wasn’t a failure in the chain of command. It was ultimately a decision making failure before, during and after the attack in Benghazi.
Here is a thoughout assessment...
