“If Petraeus is an honorable man”
That’s a big “IF” as I see it! You just have to wonder if there are any honorable men left in the flag ranks of our military. If Petraeus was a decent human being, he would never have agreed to work for FUBO in the first place.
petraeus is NOT an honorable man...and hasn’t been for many years.
Instead they had our special forces in Italy which were less than 2hrs away sit on their bayonet's and do nothing.
They should all resign.
“You certainly won’t need to flush twice to get YOUR political career all way down the drain now will ‘ya Davey?”

Thought we had an opportunity with this General, but then, most Generals are just politicians afterall.
Patraeus stands with the most accomlished murderer in American history. Where does one think that leaves him?
The video idea came from state.
Check their press releases.
The reports from the street in Egypt (supposed spillover) origin, never made any mention of a video, until the US STATE DEPT made their press release.
The report is that the Seals were order to stand down three times then final wen on their own against orders
I get the impress that Biden " got balls" comment was not some crude praise..
But that " got balls" was that the WH & Biden was pissed off at the Seals for not follow WH orders to stand back and watch Americas die
The person you may not criticize or countermand is 0bama. Had Petraeus gone off the reservation then, he would have been relieved of command....and who knows how many CIA assets and agents would have been blown by now?
Yes, he did this.
What happens if Petraeus is silenced? Relieved of duty? At this level of government? While at ‘war’ with State? Panetta? 0bama?
“In the Benghazi area, in the beginning we feel that it was spontaneous...,” Ruppersberger, D-Md., said following the hour-long briefing by Petraeus.
It's a second hand account by a leftist rat of what Petraeus said.
So, the guy on the phone who was at the consulate telling you they were being attacked by a large force of well-armed attackers couldn't convince you otherwise? You think they triggered a Critical Incident Report for a spontaneous protest?
This article doesn’t quote what Petraeus actually said, but rather it quotes a Democrat Congressman’s claim of what Petraeus said in a closed door briefing. It is possible this Dem was just lying to keep the Obama story going. Not that I want to defend Petraeus, but I also am reticent to believe any Democrat trying to advance a lie. Time will tell...
So now he is really General Betrayus!
It is up to us to determine why the Obama Administration has chosen to Cover Up what happened in Benghazi.
What are they trying in vain to hide?
The longer Secretary of Statements Hilly takes to “get to the bottom of this,” the more obvious it is that the Benghazi Cover Up was hastily designed to hide a VERY BIG US SECRET TOPIC.
My guess is that the CIA had discovered that some of the 20,000 Libyan Missiles were found in the possession of Ansar al-Sharia, or al-Qaeda who were then shipping the missing Missiles to Syria, and Obama knew all about it.
Can Hilly and Billy keep this a secret until after November 6, 2012?
Their lives just might depend on it - - - .
Meanwhile, Obama and Biden have lied to the American People, as well as their key officials have repeatedly lied to us.
The White House Benghazi Cover Up had closed ranks behind their boss, Obama.
Could Obama have survived the November Election with the embarrassment of a resurgent al-Qaeda in Libya?
Possibly, IF he would have told the truth at his first public announcement, and rallied Americans to “not change horses in the middle of the stream,” etc. etc., etc.
No way in Hell, now that Obama has lied about Benghazi.
Double Fail.
First, it was foolish to think that the Benghazi attack was anything other than a pre-planned, well-organized attack. Those thinking otherwise let their limited perspective overwhelm their common sense.
Second, Petraeus’ doctrine of soft-warfare is a losing strategy that prolongs military conflicts and causes our troops to be in more peril than they ought to be in. All you have to do is look at the so-called “insider” attacks and the manifest failure of our Afghanistan occupation to see how that strategy is really stupid.
I hope that Petraeus is dismissed from his current position when Romney takes office and that his whole counter-insurgency doctrine is ripped to shreds after being critically re-examined from top to bottom.
[ If Petraeus is an honorable man, he will resign now. ]
He’s probably not honorable.. else why did Zero select him?..
He slimed his name once accepted a position from Zero..
He may even be stupid.. ignorant of what Zero “IS”..
MAybe willfully ignorant.. if so he was always corrupt..
Like Colin Bowell.. another high level military abortion..
Washington D.C. is absolutely full of corrupt malefactors..
MANY are republicans...
Petraeus needs to come clean, or forever suffer a horrible stain on his record.He will never be trusted by America ever again, and history will adjudge him as a supporter of a fascist president.
the first job of a CIA chief is that the CIA never takes ANYONE’s words at face value
get the intel first before believing anyone
and the idea that the Bengazi incident began as a protest over the stupid video, did not come from intel
it was the story the organizers (who set up the protest as cover) put out
so, my guess is that leading up to September 11 the CIA “actionable” intelligence was poor, and by September 24 Patreaus went to Congress to repeat the party line, not betray all he really knew (IT WAS terrorists and terrorists organized) soon after the attack was over
now, as of today, he and Clinton and Panetta and Obama are all pointing fingers at each other
