Why do I get the feeling this is all a cover for
Bengazhi. Those “manpads”, I would be willing to bet
that some of them came from US.
He’s finally saying this as he walks out the door. It does no good.
Heaven help us when Hagel takes over, cuz his thinking is 180* from this.
S/B OBLIVIOUS
So Panetta is gone, and in his place we’ve got Senator Know-Nothing.
I have to wonder whether these latest Iranian sourced manpads have any capability against US Predator and Reaper drones...
The Russians and Chinese are always trying to stretch the US forces thin and blunt US power projection. What better way than to develop and deploy a new manpad capable of taking down a Predator drone to the Iranians and their proxies and to the Taliban?
Do Predator drones have counter-manpad capabilities other than spotting and eliminating enemies on the ground with manpads before they can fire? I am sure that such capability is classified.
A Look at Iran
http://www.truthusa.com/IRAN.html
I hate Iran, sure, but his ruse is blatantly obvious:
The Obama-directed CIA transferred about 18,000 MANPADS out of Libya to the very worst actors imaginable, probably changing the safety of global commercial aviation for over 10 years. Two hits from common MANPDADS, and even a 747 will probably come down.
NOW they’re simply blaming it all on Iran: “IRAN DID IT...!”
They’re laying down this marker here because they believe more and more that they gave MANPADS to the WRONG PEOPLE.
This is their tar baby, and they don’t want the blame —very simple.
So, Hillery, you going to the funerals of all the civilians who are going to die from the Bengazi smuggling? Or are you going to run for President with the funds gained from the "transactions"? I do wonder how much money a Manpad goes for in the illegal arms market. My bet is Al-Queda paid quite handsomely for the weapons from Lybia.
