JMO,the kidnapping plot is the only thing that explains all the things that went down. The withdrawal of security just prior, the refusal to rescue, and the convenient “video” that nobody had ever heard of before the administration brought it up. The failure of the scheme could have been caused by the attempt to aid the Ambassador by the men who were told to “stand down”.
Yes, where was Petraeus? He was soon giving Congress briefings that included suggestions about that “video”.
So, what are the odds the Mooze Lames will do exactly the same sort of things in several places at the same time prior to election day?
.....The American special operators, Woods, Doherty and at least two others were part of the Global Response Staff, a CIA element, based at the CIA annex and were protecting CIA operators who were part of a mission to track and repurchase arms in Benghazi that had proliferated in the wake of Muammar Qaddafis fall. Part of their mission was to find the more than 20,000 missing MANPADS, or shoulder-held missiles capable of bringing down a commercial aircraft. According to a source on the ground at the time of the attack, the team inside the CIA annex had captured three Libyan attackers and was forced to hand them over to the Libyans. U.S. officials do not know what happened to those three attackers and whether they were released by the Libyan forces.......

A question for anyone who might know the answer. My assumption is these transanction are either done in cash or some type of wire. If cash, who holds the money?
It was a fubar. They should admit to that and not lay blame on the victims because the victims did not attack themselves. They should not have lied over and over again about it. After the contractors disobeyed orders and successfully evacuated the consulate personnel minus the ambassador, the folks watching this go down should have done whatever they could to save them. But they didn’t. And now two more are dead and who knows how many are still recovering from this terrorist attack.
It is the cover up that is the problem. And that we have a cinc who calls this a “bump in the road” and “not optimal.”
THIS is the point of PC. To condition ALL to follow orders. It was NEVER about —insert PC topic—, rather it was to condition the minds of our forces by demanding they mouth bullshit, salute bullshit and support bullshit. It took 40 years to get us there but we are there now. This disaster will open a lot of eyes among our forces, count on it.
Wasnt General Dempsey the one who called Pastor Terry Jones to ask him to denounce the muhammed video a day or two AFTER the attack?”
YES........ he was the arrongant man leaning back in his easy chair on some transport plane, being interviewed about that, at that time. THEN his actions in all this are the last straw.
Write your congressman. Boehner and McConnell are worthless, aren’t they? Someone else knows about this gunruning activity being run out of the fake consulate - messing with Russia and all. This is just sick. Rosenbergs?
My vote is for Jarrett; since Obama and Hillary never seem to be around. Hillary drinking and smoking and Obama smoking whatever.
PC garbage HAS been pushed on our great military for years. But since The Won is there, gays, gays and more gays, women (not apposed to women in military) but what country puts their women on the front lines?.
I’m so very angry with all this. Our great nation is at risk here worse than we ever thought. This is what we know NOW - what ELSE is going on?
The higher ups in our military are loaded with do gooder, fanny kissing guys that agree with the people in this country that want to bring us down.
God help this country.
That Dempsey guy has no business being in uniform
Because Valerie told Obama not to act, because it was too risky.
Meaning, too risky for her 'friends' in their removal of the CIA group in Syria that is attempting to purchase the 'lost manpads'.
They want you to think of it as 'buying back', but that's not true. These weapons were supplied by IRAN, and that is the secret that Valerie must protect, and it looks like little ole' Barry is going to take the fall for it.
It all goes back to a cargo ship cruising the ocean , supposedly with medical aid (or make up any description you want), but really packed with weaponry.
Yes, Dempsey called Jones....not sure what he had to do with that video....but he called him.
General Petraeus also made a public comment about Jones planning to bury a quuran back in 2010 saying it would endanger our troops. It was unusual back then, just like now with Dempsey. Dempsey was just mimicing what Petraeus had already done, even if he didn’t call Jones personally.
But while all of that military staging would have happened/did happen during the 6-8 hour battle at the consulate and annex, what the military cannot do on their own say-so is cross an international border without an order from the NCA, the National Command Authority, and that means POTUS, Obama.Obama knew all this. He did not want to be blamed for giving the order to GO. He did not want to be blamed for giving the order "STAND DOWN". He did not want to accept responsibility for giving any order.Only POTUS can authorize a cross-border hostile mission. That is, guns clear, no official permission from the Tripoli govt (if it really exists outside State Dept fantasies.)
Only one man can pull that trigger and say, GO! Obama.
...
But no order came, as of midnight in DC. And then none would come. Because the POTUS retired for the night with a do not disturb sign on his door, punted, and went to bed, to be well rested for Las Vegas.
So he ran away, and by deliberate inaction, killed our men in Libya.
“burn a quran”
The people would want cash. US Dollars in a bag.
After the first few cash transactions, they would realize that there must be tens of millions of dollars in the consulate building. Good enough excuse to rob the place, and grab Stevens for ransom in the process.
