Sources: Key task force not convened during Benghazi consulate attack

CBS News has learned that during the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. Mission in Benghazi, the Obama Administration did not convene its top interagency counterterrorism resource: the Counterterrorism Security Group, (CSG).

"The CSG is the one group that's supposed to know what resources every agency has. They know of multiple options and have the ability to coordinate counterterrorism assets across all the agencies," a high-ranking government official told CBS News. "They were not allowed to do their job. They were not called upon."

Meanwhile, 400 miles away, in Tripoli, Woods’ old Navy SEAL buddy Glen Doherty was rounding up the cavalry. The authors say that it’s a “media myth” that the diplomats’ cries for help were denied; in fact, at every stage of the game, aid was vigorous.

Yes, they got aid from within Libya! But they got nothing from outside Libya which would have required the Jug-Eared Skeet Shooter to man-up and issue a CBA along with orders to send a rescue mission.

---------------------------------------------------

Three Facts

Fact One:

1) Only the POTUS can authorize a CBA (cross border authority) command for a rescue mission in a foreign nation.

Plus Fact Two:

2) No rescue mission was attempted.

Equals Fact Three:

3) 0bama turned his back on 41 State Dept. and CIA employees refusing to issue a CBA command and went to bed so he could go to Las Vegas the next day.

--------------------------------------------------------

Panetta says that we just didn't have any resources to mount a rescue. Oh, really?

There is no doubt whatsoever that the assets were in motion preparing to receive an order to go.

How the military preps.

How an embassy rescue works.

Cross Border Authority.

Obama now has his own personal shadow intel gathering and spec-ops organization, which reports through Brennan.

And if Brennan becomes DCI, he will be able to clear the path for his Joint Special Operations Command and their private war to shape the Middle East to Obama's liking.

This will give Obama the opportunity to manipulate the ME so as to bring about his Caliphate.

Not saying he's the AC, but Obama is making all the right moves. For those of you who have exclaimed "he's to dumb to be the AC"...you might want to reconsider!

I think this was brought up in initial congressional hearings.Its a great question! I’m sure the regime is hoping it will go away.
