It seems as if the media needs a ‘Water’ or ‘White’ prefix before they pay attention.
i.e. Watergate, Whitewater, Whitewash.
The cavalier attitude that BO is showing towards NY & NJ residents in crisis should be called: White WaterWorld.
Benghazi should be his Waterloo.
As I stated in another post, we now know that this was not a true embassy/consulate in Benghazi. This was a CIA led guns/arms running scheme to the rebels in Libya. They used the cover of a bogus consulate. Stevens was an integral part of the gun running which put heavy weapons and antiaircraft missiles in the hands of Al Qaeda and other radical Islamists groups. Obama approved the gun/arms running knowing that these heavy weapons could potentially be used against Americans. No assistance was provided to the Americans in Benghazi because if we had gone in with assets like drone strikes or other platforms and killed innocent Libyans, the truth would have come out about our gun running. IMHO. If the media had done the same kind of digging that they did with Reagan and Iran-Contra affair, we would have learned the truth much sooner.
The Libyan revolt started mid Feb. 2011. Soon after, July 1, 2011,Leon Panetta ( Bill Clinton’s former chief of staff) was appointed to head the DOD, leaving his post at the CIA. At about the same time or shortly before, CIA and British SPEC-OPs were inserted into Libya. Purportedly Hillary was lobbying for increased active efforts to support the rebels, with Huma Abedin whispering in her ear.
Soon after the first reports of the missing MANPADS surfaced. Did the Obama gun running idea originate at that time? I think this might have been the jump off point.
Whatever role the CIA played in the Benghazi/weapons debacle, it originated with Panetta at the head of the CIA.
The deep rooted moles from the Carter-Clinton regimes have their fingerprints all over the foreign policy failures.
The damage to our armed forces and intel operations exceeds that of Carter and Clinton at a time of active global islamist aggression. And I suspect the CIA under Petraeus will ultimately be more damaged then under Adm. Stansfield Turner.
