Under Obama and Clinton, Mueller and Petraeus Grounded Critical Benghazi Rescue Op (trunc)
True Pundit ^ | Jan 17, 2018 | Investigative Bureau

Posted on 01/17/2018 5:38:10 PM PST by smileyface

When distress reports reached U.S. Intelligence in Langley and the Pentagon that the American ambassador to Benghazi and dozens of his diplomatic personnel were under terrorist attack in Libya on Sept. 11 2012, CIA and Defense Department officials scrambled an immediate response.

Officials moved quickly to assemble a counter-terrorism team of professionals to dispatch to Benghazi. That little-known but elite squad, known as the Foreign Emergency Support Team (FEST), is in fact the government’s sole inter-agency, on call and short notice team trained to respond to any terror-related incident in the world.

But not this time. Not in Benghazi.

FEST agents intent on rescuing the stranded Americans from the siege on the U.S. diplomatic compounds in Benghazi — including Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens – were told to stand down, according to shocking revelations by FBI agents and CIA sources who spoke to True Pundit.

Robyn Gritz, a decorated FBI agent who previously served as the Bureau’s official attaché to the CIA prior to Benghazi, recalls the troubling details surrounding the stand-down order.

Gritz details the FBI counter-terrorism division’s initial emergency meeting to discuss the unfolding events in Benghazi. In the meeting led by now FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, he briefed agents about the violent attacks in Benghazi. McCabe was assistant director of anti-terrorism at the time but running the FBI’s response to Benghazi, sources confirm.

If this story is true, Mueller should be fired immediately. Same with Rothenstein. Sessions should fire the entire team and replace with a new special prosecutor with a balanced (dem and repub) team of investigators. The purpose of his investigation is not prosecute Trump but to cover up what really happened that night?

Questions we need answers to.

1) Where was President Obama for the missing six hours the night of the attack?
2) What did Petreaus know and when did he know it? Did Patreaus threat to Obama cause Obama administration to undermine Patreaus?
3) Is all the effort being done by former Obama administration appointees to undermine election and bring down an elected Trump orchestrated - not because they hated Trump - but because they were covering up a major scandal that has yet to be disclosed?

My personal opinion is ‘deep state’ funded the making of that video to make the world believe that an Israeli Jew, and a Koran burning preacher from Florida made an ‘insulting’ video. When in fact plundering and pillaging of Libya was underway by Hillry’s goons. Obama sure wasted no time advertising to the world this video was the cause of the ‘protests’...

Had help been sent in, Benghazi by the sea would have been lit up like a 4th of July fireworks show. Then the whole world would know what really was going on in Libya.

Initial reports claimed

https://www.haaretz.com/anti-islam-filmmaker-in-hiding-1.5160857

“Film by Sam Bacile, who self-identifies as an Israeli Jew, led to protests at the U.S. consulate in Libya and the U.S. Embassy in Cairo; one American staffer killed in clashes.”

We all know that both Obama and Hillry were very ‘familiar’ with this ‘video’... Which one commissioned its creation? The attempt was to blame Israel for foment unrest.

https://www.christianpost.com/news/who-is-sam-bacile-what-is-terry-jones-role-in-the-middle-east-attacks-81638/

“As reported in The Christian Post on Thursday, Jones was asked to stop promoting the film after the attacks in Libya and was contacted by Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey on Wednesday. Jones told the general he would consider his request not to upload the film to the church's website, but then told reporters he would ignore the Pentagon's request”

I thought Petraeus bounced back and forth as being a good one and a wishy-washy one - dems hated him then loved him and our side went through similar but polar gyrations. I guess he is one of those “swing both ways” folks in the political arena.

And McMaster is a Petraeus man.

BTW for the QANON doubters out there, he last week put a huge spotlight on Australia and the CL. Well, lookie here:

This has been known since shortly after the incident. Not sure why it is “big” news now. The guys that were spun up and RTG in Italy have been pretty vocal about it.

They couple not afford to get caught out on the gun running operation Hillary had going in the CIA complex behind the embassy. So they just left everybody to die

I have listened to Kris Paranto tell what happened. It makes you sick to your stomach.
