What the Hell is Libya doing with chemical weapons...or is this more of Soddom Hussein's leftovers?
Don’t worry, we’ll get to the bottom of this right after the election. /s
Who would ever have oconsidered that irate common people riled up by a video could morph into armed militia at a moment's notice? You can really start to understand how the Obama administration was caught off guard and so confused. /s
What is the explanation for this? A covert team is held up at the airport for 3hrs? And nothing else is done?
“Both American and British sources said, at the very least, the security situation on the ground and the lack of proper response were the result of “complete incompetence.” The covert team that came in from Tripoli was held up at the Benghazi airport for more than three hours by Libyan officials. Sources said the team notified officials in Washington that they were being delayed within 30 minutes of their arrival.”
INCOMPETENCE
“The covert team that came in from Tripoli was held up at the Benghazi airport for more than three hours by Libyan officials. Sources said the team notified officials in Washington that they were being delayed within 30 minutes of their arrival.
The fact that Obama wants/allows them to wait for hrs for permission to go save American lives, says it ALL.
David Petraeus, your political skirt is showing... maybe your not the “man” most of us thought your were...
“Complete incompetence” - Isn’t that Hillary’s middle name?
So there are drones flying over Benghazi every night. There are drones flying over chemical sites near Benghazi. The British were eager to help. Things get curiouser and curiouser.
IMO, Libya/? have their own assassination force. Did ambassador Stevens have his shoes on?

I’m in the business of determining “Root Cause”, when a problem occurs.
In this case that will include determining motives that might explain the behavior of our decision makers.
Incompetence and indifference are insufficient explanations, in the face of all of the warnings over an extended period.
Without examining all of the possibilities here, there is only one scenario that is consistent with all of the facts available.
All security was removed to facilitate the kidnapping of Christopher Stevens.
This would have set up the negotiations for his release, which would have required that we give up the Blind Sheikh, Omar Abdel-Rahman.
Remember that the ex-CIA security agents who arrived on scene and were later killed, were told to “stand down”.
Without their protecting fire, Stevens could have been taken with little trouble.
Wish I could locate the original story that expanded on this, but it’s the only scenario constant with all of the evidence.
By the time the pitiful little ad-hoc CIA "rescue team" chartered a plane and arrived in Benghazi, over 100 Force Recon Marines should already have been there.
Benghazi's Smoking Gun: Only President Can Grant Cross-Border Authority (PJMedia link)
I would believe the Fox lady before this criminal corrupt self centered government
This report is a blockbuster. Here's the smoking gun: "US military intelligence." That means the Pentagon knew three hours before the attack began that there was a serious situation developing in Benghazi. Was the WH informed? The Secretary of State? Panetta? You can bet ALL of them knew. And did nothing.
Fox News must not allow this story to die, just as those four American citizens were betrayed to their death.
People need to be tried for treason, and people need to go to jail. This should be one of the first priorities of President Romney, and we must hold his feet to the fire until every single person who knew, did nothing, or was complicit in the cover-up is held accountable.
Someone nominate Jennifer Griffin for the Nobel and Pulitzer
This whole sordid, sad, tragic affair has proven one thing. The only reasonably valid source of national/international news right now is FOX. Despite the protestations of the marxists...I know people make fun of ‘fair and balanced’ - but what are we to say of the Corrupt Media after this travesty? Should their motto be ‘unfair and imbalanced, ‘cause we lick Obama’s boots?’
The Corrupt Media has to be the most corrupt institution on earth, other than the Fed/Bankstas.
What the White House naïvely bought into IN ADVANCE was a scheme to allow Amb. Stevens to be kidnapped and held for ransom.
Obama and Valerie Jarret desperately wanted to show Obama as the Master Negotiator, a mensch capable of doing what even the Great Jimmy Carter couldn't: successfully redeem hostages from muslims, and just in time for the election.
As an added bonus, it would provide the all the cover needed to release the Blind Sheik and all the "political" prisoners from Gitmo.
I believe Bronco and Val were astonished when the scorpion stung them in mid-river.
That they were so (dare I say it?) UNEXPECTEDLY betrayed caught them so utterly flat-footed that they still haven't come up with a good cover story!
Just one old, tired and cynical guy's opinion, of course.
Cite one demonstrable fact that says it isn't true, if you can...
