Ping for later reading.
BTTT
Didn’t Gaouette serve under a European command headed by Adm Sam Locklear? We need to get answers from him, too....
Oh, yeah...he’s in the Pacific these days, worrying abt global warming.
Back to the Future, huh? LOL.
Hans Oster......... Is there such a far sighted American?
Wow!....Ok....This is news to me. Where can I learn more about this?
No one knew where he was? His family? None of his military friends?
Where is he now and what is he doing?
( Ok...Now I will go on to read the rest of the article.)
During Watergate, the press use to yammer on about “it’s not the crime, it’s the coverup”. With Benghazi-gate, the press is now assisting with the coverup. How does the truth ever get out?
self ping for later.
ping to Benghazi Gate Fabians at the Gate Too Late to Close the Gate
Travis McGee brought up the “cross border authority” issue within hours of the 9/11 Benghazi attack/murders, if I remember right. That’s definitely a detail that needs to be clarified.
Thanks for the links/information/education. OUTSTANDING posts/TREASON BUMP!
R.I.P. Doherty, Smith, Stevens, Woods.
Socialism/Totalitarianism - built on the backs of dead Americans.
Stennis was enroute, but not yet on station. She was in port in Thailand when the Admiral was relieved. CAPT Bailey knows this. Nothing to do with Benghazi.
Apparently they caught the person who masterminded the attacks. 25 bucks says the administration says he confessed that the attack was because of the video.
I believe you are referring to GEN Carter Ham, who was the AFRICOM commander at the time. Speculation is that he was spinning up the rescue attempt in defiance of orders from Panetta to stand down and was summarily relieved. Ham was nearing mandatory retirement anyway and was due to step down, which gives Obama and Panetta cover. He should be brought before committee to confirm or deny the rescue attempt and the details, if applicable.
Bingo...You’re right...Now I remember the name, thanks for the reminder...
Benghazi’s Smoking Gun? Only President Can Give Cross-Border Authority
Wow...I guess the administration has once again covered its tracks...Kinda like the same way they did with all the bullshit mis and dis-information on the whole DHS MRAP purchases...
So many people seemed to know from what was posteed and reported out there, that no one seemed to think about calling their elected officials to ask about what the truth was...
But, then again , that is obviously a stupid move on anyones part to do that...Who in D.C. would tell the truth, much care what that may be...
Carrier group in question out of position, Admiral in charge relieved before Bengazi developed, General relieved because he was due to retire, but apparently he had troops on a transport ready to go to the aid of these Americans under attack...Video the reason the mooslims were pizzed in the first place, Obama didn’t answer that call at 3am, Hillary was blitzed again from the bar on her state department jet...She’s such a happy drunk...
In the mean time, 4 Americans, one our top diplomat was murdered and nothing haas been resolved from such an act of war...
Nothing to see here people, move along...Move along...
I guess it is just too hard a thing to imagine that we could ever get to the bottom of this, regardless of all the bullshit flying around out there...
And look who benefits from all this crap...Ohhhh, do I have to speel dat wun out as weel???
/sarc
What burns me the most, is that there are some out there, even here, that would by that line of bullshit that a senior commander, who may be close to retirement, cannot make good command decisions based upon strategic and tactical policies, and the events that would spur prudent actions in compliance with established rules of engagement...
Never in my military career have I ever heard of a flag officer in any branch, ever get summarily removed from command for reasons or conditions like this, much less two...However squeued the timeline or positions of tangible assets were at the time...
There were accounts of General Ham being relieved but, I believe, he is still the commandant of Africom.
I don’t know where all the buzz arose at the time of the attack. It sounded reasonable to me that BO would relieve anyone who spoke up against him. Now we know, the CinC wasn’t present when the attacks were going on....nor after, as he was in LV.
His take is that there was a "Seven Days in May" situation that was broken up. My own take is that what happened to Petraeus is connected to it.
