Author Ed Klein: As Benghazi blame nears Hillary, Clintons grow furious
The Daily Caller ^ | 10/12/12 | Alex Pappas

Posted on 10/12/2012 2:10:52 PM PDT by justlittleoleme

In an exclusive interview with The Daily Caller, Klein said sources close to the Clintons tell him that Bill Clinton has assembled an informal legal team to discuss how the Secretary of State should deal with the issue of being blamed for not preventing the Benghazi terrorist attack last month.

White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters during a press conference Friday that responsibility for the consulate in Libya fell on the State Department, not the White House.

If blame for the security failures falls to Hillary Clinton, Klein said, it’s possible that she would even consider resigning over the issue.

“Bill is working on a number of strategies about what Hillary ought to do. He’s even gone so far as to play with various doomsday scenarios including up to the idea that Hillary would consider resigning over the issue if the Obama team tries to use her as a scapegoat,” Klein told TheDC in an interview.

I would like to know why Hillbilly so pointedly and repeatedly felt that she needed to state that the U.S. gov had no connection to the "video." Seems odd to me that it needed to be stated at all. (see video from 0:10 - 0:30)

I'm with you on that....also, how is it that Obama and Hillary seem to be the only ones who even knew about this film?

Oversight Hearing Part 1 - "The Security Failures of Benghazi" (Video of full hearing. 3:12:59)

What we learned from Congressman Darrell Issa, (R-CA 49th District) is that

"The State Department news conference made very clear it had never been the State Department’s position, I repeat, never been the State Department’s position that in fact this assault was part of a reaction to a video or the like. This has been corroborated by numerous witnesses and whistleblowers."

So, who did tell that to 0blahblah, Hillbilly and Rice?

Ambassador Patrick Kennedy repeatedly stated that "the intelligence community" told them it was "the video" for days after the incident although he wouldn't say who those 'intelligence sources' were. Apparently the State Dept.'s 'intelligence sources' told State a complete fabrication for days. Apparently neither Ambassador Kennedy nor anyone in the 0bungles administration sees that as a problem.

Pat Caddell slams the media: They have become an “enemy of the people” (video 26:00)

...Clinton’s attempt to distance the U.S. from “Innocence of Muslims” — and, by extension, its felonious producer — may be complicated by the revelation that Nakoula Basseley Nakoula became a government informant after his 2009 arrest for bank fraud, the Smoking Gun has learned.

Though many key documents from the U.S. District Court case remain sealed, a June 2010 sentencing transcript provides an account of Nakoula’s cooperation with federal investigators in Los Angeles (and how his prison sentence was reduced as a result)...

“Have to check on ammo.”

Why check your ammo? Add to your store. The federal weather forecasters bought 1.2 billion rounds. Go claim your fair share. You did pay for it, taxpayer.

She should resign—one week before the Election. Slaam.

You wouldn't be suggesting this was all planned, now would you?

They would never do that.....

She’s head of the department. I don’t see how she walks away from this unscathed. Does the buck stop anywhere in this administration?

So is Hillary, she resign then undercut Zero and she will earn the undying animosity of the Rats most reliable ethnic group. She “takes one for the Zero team” and she may have taken a crippling hit to any future political ambitions. Thanks to the Internet it's very hard now to bury public displays of incompetence like she showed on the Libya fiasco. That can be trotted out and displayed any time she wants to try and run for something.

She was a fool to join the Zero administration !
His failures are now her failures! Particular since she put herself in such a high profile and “high risk” position, the SOS. If she wanted a political future she should have stayed in the Senate. She could have had Reid's job if she wanted it. If she had done that she would now be riding the to the Rat rescue.

All this demonstrates her domesticate American political cluelessness! When I reflect on this I am amazed that Slick let her do this, I thought he was the political Jedi master.

Because it points back to a decision from the WH, one of which Petraeus provided cover??

Petraeus is an angle I haven't heard before. Trails leading back to the WH is though.

There were four versions of Nakoula's movie.

Only the final one was forwarded, by persons unknown, to Sheikh Khalid Abdullah the cleric in Cairo who aired it on TV. Nakoula, the maker of the original film, was not the one who uploaded the final version, Innocence of Muslims, to the internet.

You can hear some interesting things about the timeline of all these iterations of "the movie" in the Youtube video linked below. Start at 9:30 and watch to 16:00 for the meat of that. The trail leads to a defense contractor.

False Flag, Currently Underway ?

Thanks, I am familiar with that.

I've also read that his partner was a Pakistani muzzie as well.

I thought this thing stank from the beginning, and I hope the truth comes out real soon.

Silly Hillary. She should be fully aware of how this works. Waco? I don’t know anything about that. Ask Janet Reno.

Really, just what is going on here people?

I have had my suspicions even before details about the "video" maker or the attack in Benghazi came out. YMMV.

----------------------------------------------

The move is on to consolidate the Muslim world under the Muslim Brotherhood.

People still believe 0bama's foreign policy is simply bumbling and incompetence.

0bama has set Israel up the bomb...

Sept. 11, 2012

Netanyahu gets the cold shoulder.

U.S. has no right to block Israel on Iran: Netanyahu

The embassy in Cairo puts out an apology for a movie most of the rioters know nothing about.

Former deputy national security adviser: US response to embassy attack ‘bizarre and unacceptable’

0bama sent a letter to Tehran assuring them that the U.S. will do nothing to help Israel. That takes that off of the table removing a big worry for them that might have made them think twice. Iran is good to go now with 0bama's blessing.

We don't support Israeli attack, US tells Iran

The "movie" turns out to be a red herring excuse to cover for the rioters.

CNN: Protests against film a ‘diversion. Attack was planned’

Quite a day of unfortunate coincidences. Israel was rebuffed and there were signals being sent to the MB and Iran. 0bama is giving the "go ahead" to the Muslim world to take out Israel.

Obama Admin Transferred 3,000 Detainees to Afghan Gov't Control Day Before 9/11

UNREAL… Obama Invites Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood President to Meet Next Week – Refuses to Meet Netanyahu

The White House hands Iran's Ahmadinejad a global megaphone

REPORTS: No Live Ammo for Marines (No Marines at all in Libya.)

-------------------------------------------------------

CNN: Protests against film a ‘diversion. Attack was planned’

Egypt intelligence warns (on Sept 4th) of attacks on Israel, US embassies

Congress was warned about Libya last month

-------------------------------------------------------

U.S. denies premeditation report
"The Obama administration is flatly denying a blaring British newspaper report that the U.S. diplomats in Libya were killed as a result of a “continuing security breach,” and that “credible information” about possible attacks had been ignored. A U.S. official told POLITICO: “There's no intelligence indicating that the attack in Benghazi was premeditated.”"

Is that all incompetence? Or did it take planning to make all that happen?
Cloward & Pliven strategy and community organizing on a global scale?

This isn't just about getting re-elected, that's certainly a side benefit, this is about the big enchilada. No more Israel. The United States of the Muslim Brotherhood in the ME. ie the new Caliphate. The end of western influence in the world.
