The more we learn about what happened in Benghazi, the clearer things become.

Two U.S. intelligence officials told The Daily Beast that the intelligence community is currently analyzing an intercept between a Libyan politician whose sympathies are with al Qaeda and the Libyan militia known as the February 17 Brigade—which had been charged with providing local security to the consulate. In the intercept, the Libyan politician apparently asks an officer in the brigade to have his men stand down for a pending attack—another piece of evidence implying the violence was planned in advance.

Sort of like when BATF ordered their agent to “stand down” in “Fast and Furious” and then watched guns walked ?
In this instance , perhaps it was MANPADS (shoulder fired missles) that our Govt. had given the ‘rebels’ to assist in the takedown of the previous Libyian govt.

Anybody know the number of missles we had ‘walk’ in Libya ?

It seems this Administration trusts the Muslim Brotherhood more than the US Marine Corpse.

There is a reason why Egypt didn’t allow the MB to hold ANY political office since 1925.

Now, Obama has turned loose ‘the dogs of war’.
