The latest rumor making the rounds is that Barack Obama replaced General Carter Ham at Africom after the general made a move to help the US security officials at the Benghazi consulate and annex. Ham was replaced by Gen. David Rodriquez on October 18. Tiger Droppings reported:
The information I heard today was that General [Carter] Ham as head of Africom received the same e-mails the White House received requesting help/support as the attack was taking place. General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon that he had a unit ready.
General Ham then received the order to stand down. His response was to screw it, he was going to help anyhow. Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.
The story continues that now General Rodiguez would take General Ham’s place as the head of Africom.
Sure enough Obama nominated Gen. David Rodriguez to replace Gen. Carter Ham as commander of U.S. Africa Command.

Finally!! You get it!
The “political purposes” have nothing to do with US politics - rather muslim politics and culture. The ‘permission’ for the assault (read Gift) was a signal to the MB and affiliates (like AQ) that this WH is indicating its future intentions and loyalties - just as it did with its previous Gift to Iran of the latest drone tech.
The second in command - whoever that was - is a WH loyalist and O sycophant. Someone, if it isn't already known, needs to find that individual’s name, and we need to watch his/her career rise as a reward.
I’m saying that the implication is that they all have to do with Benghazi.
Does it seem to you that Gen Dunford’s situation is related?
There's the complex theory - your’s is one version, then there's mine.
Muslims and muslim culture is riddled with Gift giving. Stevens et al were a Gift: nothing more than a statement of WH intentions and loyalties to the MB and AQ.
The hoisting of the black AQ flag at the Egyptian Embassy and the consulate were signals back to O that the Gift was accepted.
After his reelection, expect to see more incidents - aka “bumps in the road” - like Iran using its nuclear weapons ...
The next shoe to drop is the connection between the Justice dept and the leader of the group that killed the ambassador . Jennifer Daskal helped the leader get out of GITMO and get him transferred to Libyan prison. She is one of several left wing Amercian haters in Justice. Does she still have him on speed dail? Goods question to ask in a hearing.
Now you know why Justice and the FBI took 3 weeks to get on site.

I saw it, she did not say that.. maybe “implied it” but did not say it.. shes not stupid...
That whistle blower has not come forward yet.. so far.. publicly..
“...his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.”
If this really happened why didn’t General just throw his second in command into confinement, get er’ done, then deal with the stand down thing later?
How did Gen Dunford get involved in the conversation? Rodriguez replaces Ham and someone - not sure who - will replace Rodriguez.
Gen Ham is the name I know as being in command of our Africa forces on 9-11 and good to go when assistance was called for.
How is this affecting the troops.
It is almost a mutiny among a General and an Admiral who appear to be doing what they are supposed to do and being ordered to stand down.
How many troops are ready to stand by and watch their superiors taken down for being the brave men they are.
What kind of military do we have left after men of high rank are replaced with Obama sycophants.
Our only chance now is to get rid of Obama and replace him with an American.
These are the traders at Justice.

This explains the body language of Leon Panetta as he explained why the military did not attempt to save the people at the Embassy. His body language was that of a man who was telling an awful lie about an awful situation and awful decisions.
It sounds a lot like the guy who removed him was placed there for that purpose.
30 seconds is a quick time to make such an aggressive move against a superior officer, unless you had former preparation.
If you read the rest of Gateway’s piece and the headline, “Replaces top generals” he’s referring to not only Ham’s replacement, but Dunford’s and the Admiral.
There may be something to Ham’s replacement (I don’t know), but including others to make it seem like more than one general is being replaced because of Benghazi, is ‘overzealous’.
Before Obamalinsky, carter was the worse president in modern times.
However, even Carter attempted to rescue our American hostages.
