Susan Rice blew off Netanyahu UN speech
Thomas Lifson
Our UN ambassador, last heard from selling the lie that Benghazi was a spontaneous response to an internet video on 5 Sunday shows, was simply too busy to honor the Prime Minister of Israel’s speech to the UN General Assembly with her attendance. This body language amplified Obama’s snub of Netanyahu when both men were at the UN, communicating a clear message to the mullahs in Tehran and the rest of the world: The US is backing away from its relationship to Israel. And after the election, Obama will have a lot more flexibility.
“And after the election, Obama will have a lot more flexibility.”
—— my thoughts exactly!
Video here also on the subject in interview on Greta with Bolton...

Penelopsire: [Not that there is any equivalency...but] no one from US delegation planned to attend Ahmanutjob’s speech. Unless they changed their mind, no one from US was there.
“Over the past couple of days, we’ve seen Mr. Ahmadinejad once again use his trip to the U.N. not to address the legitimate aspirations of the Iranian people but to instead spout paranoid theories and repulsive slurs against Israel,” Erin Pelton, a spokesman for United States U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice, said in a statement.
“It’s particularly unfortunate that Mr. Ahmadinejad will have the platform of the U.N. General Assembly on Yom Kippur, which is why the United States has decided not to attend,” Pelton said.

Apparent excuse for absence today-— Rice declined to go “because the speeches went long today.”
....Another scheduling conflict. lol!
[From the Greta video above] Instead of going to Bibi’s UN speech, Hillary and Susan Rice went to lunch with foreign ministers of 5 permanent members of Security Council.
Only US contingent at UN speech today were the envoy and our Ambassador to Israel.

“There is a very wicked undercurrent going on in our government right now.”
YES there is... “very wicked undercurrent” -— Perfect choice of words.
“They” are becoming even more emboldened-— like “they” were right after the election. One gets the feeling “they” know the outcome of the election, while citizens remain in the dark.
Thanks for the correction on whether the US delegation attended Iran’s address. I could have sworn I read somewhere that they did. Perhaps it was Morsi’s speech they sat through now that I think about it.
I was just doing some reading about the whole timeline and attack( I was trout fishing in the Colorado outback when it happened and missed a lot of particulars)...anyway a few quick questions.
What happened to the other people evacuated from the safe house? Have they been interviewed?
Has anyone answered the questions on how the safe house location was compromised?
Where is Hillary’s gal pal Muslim brotherhood plant Huma Abedin? What did she know and when did she know it?
Why was the rescue force sent from Tripoli told to expect 10 evacuees yet there were 37 on the ground waiting for rescue? So who were these people? Where are they now? Reuters had a report that many were injured, yet we have read nothing of who they were and how they were injured.
It seems to me that we are missing the boat just focusing on the administration lies of whether it was a terrorist attack or not. There are more fundamental questions here about foxes in the hen house and who exactly was responsible for the lax security.
