Or the intention was to smoke them out from cover.

An interesting tidbit I came across is that the group which carried out the attack included Ansar al Sharia and Ansar al Shariah was, before 9/11, in full control of a hospital in Benghazi.

News reports said the ambassador had been taken to a hospital in Benghazi where doctors used his cell phone to call US officials. The assumption made by the press was that he was taken to the hospital for treatment, but what if this hospital was the same one used as headquarters by Ansar al Sharia?

How familiar are you with the protocols of the SF? It sure seemed to me that our fellow FReeper who phoned in to Rush knew what he was saying. He has the credentials.

At that point, they called again for military support and help because they were taking fire at the CIA safe house, or annex. The request was denied. There were no communications problems at the annex, according those present at the compound. The team was in constant radio contact with their headquarters. In fact, at least one member of the team was on the roof of the annex manning a heavy machine gun when mortars were fired at the CIA compound. The security officer had a laser on the target that was firing and repeatedly requested back-up support from a Spectre gunship, which is commonly used by U.S. Special Operations forces to provide support to Special Operations teams on the ground involved in

I remember a video of several men yelling. It was a very dark image but a few faces could be seen. Seemed to be dragging something through a doorway.

And what you will find is that this administration, from the top down, is infested with maggots.

Probably the little Nazi Jarrett, she’s been running the show for the last 4 years. The Fraud went to bed we have been told. Fast asleep while the drone watched the attack and no-one did anything to intervene and attempt to save the Americans under attack.

If Bush had been President, non-stop coverage since the attack happened and this news about watching and doing nothing would have buried Bush. Whoever he ran against would win by 20 points.

This turd is still in it. Go figure

I didn’t know “smoke inhalation” could be so bloody.

Spooky was coming from Italy, not Africa. That might be another problem by itself ... Two different theaters of operation.

I am reminded by your post about Haman...from the book of Esther...treason has its rewards :)

“So the king and Haman came to have dinner with Queen Esther. On the second day, while they were drinking wine, the king asked Esther, “What is your request, Queen Esther? It will be granted to you. And what would you like? Even if it is up to half of the kingdom, it will be granted.” Then Queen Esther answered, “If I have found favor with you, Your Majesty, and if it pleases you, Your Majesty, spare my life. That is my request. And spare the life of my people. That is what I ask for. You see, we-my people and I-have been sold so that we can be wiped out, killed, and destroyed. If our men and women had only been sold as slaves, I would have kept silent because the enemy is not worth troubling you about, Your Majesty.” Then King Xerxes interrupted Queen Esther and said, “Who is this person? Where is the person who has dared to do this?” Esther answered, “Our vicious enemy is this wicked man Haman!” Then Haman became panic-stricken in the presence of the king and queen. The king was furious as he got up from dinner and went into the palace garden. But Haman stayed to beg Queen Esther for his life, because he saw that the king had a terrible end in mind for him. When the king returned from the palace garden to the palace dining room, Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was lying. The king thought, “Is he even going to rape the queen while I’m in the palace?” Then the king passed sentence on him, and servants covered Haman’s face. Harbona, one of the eunuchs present with the king, said, “What a coincidence! The 75-foot pole Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke up for the well-being of the king, is still standing at Haman’s house.” The king responded, “Hang him on it!” So servants hung Haman’s dead body on the very pole he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king got over his raging anger.”
(Esther 7:1-10 GW)

HANG HIM ON IT!

I have cut and pasted what is below from a comment section here:

http://www.algemeiner.com/2012/09/19/the-rape-of-christopher-stevens/

The comment seems to refer to what, I too, remember seeing:

My Husband is a minister, the day after Ambassador Stevens was killed he was searching middle eastern news sites, he ended up coming across the video of Ambassador Stevens beating and rape. Had we not been so horrified perhaps we could have retained more proof. I do have screen shots of the page proving there was a video of the rape that youtube removed. I can easily provide enough proof to back up every other word this author says too.

not only was smoke inhalation so bloody but also sodomistic

What I don’t get about the “lasing the targets” bit is the fact that if they were lighting up targets, and yet nobody pulled the trigger, wouldn’t that mean the order to not engage came down in the minutes before the lasing took place? Almost simultaneously, which is unlikely? Please enlighten if you know more.

Obammie the Commie’s intelligence and ability is way, way over-rated. The man receives 100x more respect than he has ever earned and deserves.

But I don’t believe this was incompetence. I believe this was a conscious decision coming from two characteristics of this POS:

1. He didn’t want to engage in any military fighting this close to the election. He ran as the “America is guilty of acting like a cowboy in international affairs. We are a bully. We need to be stopped.” He didn’t want to lose the leftist voters.
2. He hates America and especially America’s military for the above reason (he is one of those leftists). So he has no trouble allowing a third-world country to kick America’s ass once in a while as a form of “national penance.” Remember, he said for any of us to be “saved” in a religious sense that the entire nation as a whole needed to be saved.

As part of that “national penance, he crucified those Americans when they were under attack and most needed to have a Commander in Chief who had their back.

His campaign’s recent ineptitude may be a sign that he’s had enough, and thinks that exile in his new Oahu mansion may protect him from prosecution (narcissistic wishful thinking).

We do know that that we had radio communication from the scene. We know that help was requested and denied. The denial did not come from The CIA or State. The fight lasted at least four hours. We know that our armed forces were not on heightened alert on 9/11 in spite of intel suggesting increased risk. Even still, we know that there was at least an AC-130 gunship 480 miles away.
