COLONEL: HILLARY MADE DECISION NOT TO POST MARINES AT BENGHAZI

Michael Patrick Leahy

In an exclusive interview with Breitbart News, Fox News military analyst Colonel David Hunt laid the blame for the murder of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans at the Benghazi, Libya American mission on Hillary Clinton and the State Department:

The State Department just allowed our guys to get killed. If you approve no bullets in guns for the mission security guards and an outhouse for a mission, you’re inviting it.

Earlier, on Howie Carr's radio show Thursday, Colonel Hunt said that the American mission at Benghazi "was like a cardboard building, there wasn't even bullet proof glass." In addition, Hunt said the security guards inside the mission didn't have bullets:

Howie Carr: They weren't allowed to have bullets, is that correct?

Colonel Hunt: That's true. They were private security. The rules of engagement were ridiculous.

Hunt told Breitbart News that the new State Department Rules of Engagement for Libya, approved and signed by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton since the 2011 fall of Khadafi's regime, severely compromised the safety and security of murdered Ambassador Stevens and all American diplomatic staff in Libya.

He also stated that the decision not to staff Benghazi with Marines was made by Secretary of State Clinton when she attached her signature to the State Department Rules of Engagement for Libya document. Breitbart News has subsequently learned that under those rules of engagement, Secretary Clinton prohibited Marines from providing security at any American diplomatic installation in Libya.....

One of the four Americans killed in Libya Tuesday was a former Navy SEAL turned author who lived in Encinitas.

Glen A. Doherty's family spoke to the Boston Globe, saying the government had confirmed that he was killed while providing security at the U.S. embassy in Benghazi that was attacked by extremists.

He had only departed San Diego for the assignment eight days ago.

“I don’t care how long it normally takes to get Marine guards in place,....”

The Marines have overnight or quicker delivery of units. Any Marine Detachment on a Naval ship in the area could have flow in at a momnets notice. Naval detachment Marines would have fit the Embassy requirements 95% +........The training for the two assignments are very similiar, AND they are all at least basically trained Marine infantrymen, if not full on combat veteran grunts.

We all know how Billary feels about the military......uniforms banned from the White House during their buy-one-get-one-free presidency.

RE: The FBI's John O’Neill

I posted this reply eight years ago:

"Yes, two weeks before the attack on America [John O’Neill] became the Head of Security at the World Trade Center.

"Reading a little about [John O’Neill] you find he was on the WTC 1993 investigation team. He knew that bombing was far more than a 'police' matter of a couple of criminal nuts and a truck bomb. By the time of the overseas attacks he was the expert and he knew it was Al Qaeda and Bin Laden. No one would listen.

"Leftist pig vomit spin his leaving the FBI in 2001 as being anger at the Bush administration. But he had about eight years of interference from BJ's pukes incuding Ms Bodine."

BTW, leftist pig vomit is short for

1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats who were celebrated in the establishment MSM as the most intelligent generation ever!. They are now arguably that very establishment that praised them and they hold themselves and their ideological issue in even higher regard.

My reply immediately above reminded me that Hillary, et al. leftist pig vomit (1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats and their ideological issue) lied, lied and thousands would later die when she dismissed the WTC 1993 bombing simply as a 'police' matter of a couple of criminal nuts and a truck bomb.

Void the bowels of Washington this November!

"The U.S. House of Representatives should at the very least hold Impeachment Hearings against Secretary of State Clinton."

Waste of time, just use the info to create a humiliating defeat at the ballot box!

Whew, watta relief. Good thing Obama just sent in those two dozen unarmed Marine at the embassy---ordered to play tiddlywinks so as not to appear "aggressive." After all, if Keystone Kops---Obama/Hillary---- had stationed armed US soldiers at the embassy, everybody knows that would just have escalated the situation. Obama’s calm cool voice of reason prevailed....

After all----didn't 2008 candidate Obama calmly assure America that once he was elected all "hostilities" would cease?

Look how well that's gonna work out when Obama is reelected.....especially with Obama's drastically reduced military budget (/snix)

The Muslim world----100 million fervent America haters.

I read earlier here on FR that besides Hillary's idiotic Rules Of Engagement that she set for Libya, the Ambassador she assigned there who was killed was...(tada)... GAY. Not 'flaming gay' but not in the closet either. Openly Gay I guess you'd put it.

And as we know being Gay, 'openly' or otherwise is not exactly the thing to be in a Islamic Fundamentalist country and is why he was sodomized after he was murdered. It's some type of Islamic insult so he wouldn't go to heaven (as if).

Note that the two former SEALS serving as private security that were also murdered were not sodomized.

Yup-—soon as I saw his pic-—I knew he was gay. Musta been dancer Rahm’s idea (/snix).

Once again, we see the utter depravity of the in-your-face Obamatons. These sickos get their kicks from sticking it to everybody.

Like forcing illegals on a country that’s deadset against it; forcing birth contol on Catholics; forcing Obamacare on a recalcitrant country.....and so on and so forth, ad infinitum, ad nauseaum.

And who could forget Obama’s “Arab Spring” when all of the terrorists would suddenly become sap-happy humanitarians, weaving daisy chains while frolicking around the May pole?

Yea, what were they thinking sending a gay guy into a Muslim country. The guy had a target on his back from the moment he got off the plane. They hate gays cus most of em are gay....it’s either that or goats and sheep, lol...

Israeli’s have been trying to get us to understand that you can not deal withor trust the Muslims at all. They have been preparing for war for years. They knew the Arab spring was coming, it had to take place to make way for the great war to take place. All the treaties and agreements had to be absolved so the war could take place. It is coming folks. And we are worried about who is president, it really does not matter lol.

When you think in those terms the election gets really small, lol.

Are you saying they don't like the competition, or that they're closet packers and want to be outed...or that they're jealous of the freedom of Western faggots?

It appears the MSM has forgotten that part... they're new line is 'who could have known'... Israel knew. We knew... but they didn't. So the new meme, 'who could have known' is another lie...

If theOne forces the hag to resign, Bill would sink the campaign.

Then we should go nuts blaming her and demanding her removal. Make it go viral!
