CIA agents in Benghazi twice asked for permission to help Ambassador Chris Stevens as bullets
Daily Mail ^ | 26 October 2012 | James Nye

It has been claimed that CIA agents on the ground during the deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi twice asked for permission to help Ambassador Chris Stevens and twice were told to stand down.

Furthermore sources present during the deadly six-hour assault have said that a desperate last request for military assistance once the CIA themselves came under attack was denied, even though elite counter-terrorism units were only two hours away.

I know what the policy is at the CIA. If it is to investigate moles and communist, they will not do it: it hurts the morale to see someone fired or investigated...

Check the movie “the Good Shepherd”. All he cares about is his job and making friends of the like duping him at the KGB.

They tried to disconnect him from FAst and Furious, and he slipped by. But this is FAst and Furious 2 with potential WMD ramifications. Thus it is ALL OBAMA-Jarette-Democrate OWNED, and not “Just Holder”.

I still don’t understand how they can’t follow the chain of command as to who told them to stand down? Where did the order come from? The Republicans can’t find this out?

The company once worked for America and visa versa.

Now, not so much.

The US Constitution is CLEAR but ignored
for a reason, and that is, they want to destroy America
by endless treason, treason, treason.

“What kind of p#ssy organization is this? Asking for permission to defend itself? What next? The military doing this too?” - JEA

They try to follow orders...rule of law, you might have heard of it.

The former SEALs that saved all those live put themselves in legal jeopardy when they did the right thing and saved the lives of so many Americans.

All this because Obama failed to allow a military rescue, already in motion, to take place. Several flag level officers lost their commands because of their (correct) actions on that day. Obama managed to have his orders stick - and no rescue was attempted from outside the borders of Libya.

MSM is more Fascist than Communist.

In all aspects they are part of our Totalitarian Masters.

Totalitarianism in all it’s forms is evil.

Obozo by his actions clearly shows he serves the
“Father of Lies”

This is the kind of shit that happens when your starting point for security is a few Marines standing outside the building with M4s with no, or empty magazines in their weapons for ‘window dressing’.

Suddenly, they fall under attack and have to call a ‘political type’ general(who is more concerned about the next dinner party he’s going to than anything else) or some higher up, who then consults with a team of lawyers of some sort to determine if they can return fire to defend themselves. It’s truly pathetic what we have become.....

The only way all this makes sense is if the regime thought that the terror types were on their side. Otherwise, the politics of the situation,which is all they care about,are not on their side. Really, politically this is a lose/lose situation for the regime no matter what!

If the general population found out that this place was nothing but a weapons depot,a halfway house for weapons being shipped all over the mideast to terrorists, the shot would hit the fan.

If we can keep it alive we get major mileage if it ever culminates and we get anywhere near the truth.

Ditto that for me. I think the same thing.I’m not sure about Stevens being used as a hostage/trade for the blind sheik or not.

the plan was for the ambassador to be captured and Obama would come to the rescue.

And the ambassador traded for the blind sheik.

The Republicans can’t find this out?

They don't want to.

This only makes sense viewed from the perspective of a trans-national point-of-reference.

Now the question. Who put our “post-turtle” in power? And who does he take orders from?

He certainly does not represent this nation.

The MSM is in this with him. Some GOP leadership is in this with him.

They are ALL Traitors to the U.S.

FUBO!
