DEVASTATING!… CBS Publishes Benghazi Investigation – Pummels Administration
thegatewaypundit.com ^ | 5-5-2013 | Jim Hoft

CBS released information on the Benghazi 9-11 massacre today that could potentially bring down the Obama Administration.

Buried in their report (down in paragraph eight) CBS reported, “Throughout the night, sources say Americans on the ground in Libya at times felt helpless and abandoned… But they were told immediate help wasn’t available.” But, counterterrorism sources and internal emails reviewed by CBS News express frustration that key responders were ready to deploy, but were not called upon to help. CBS reported:

Throughout the night, sources say Americans on the ground in Libya at times felt helpless and abandoned.

“We relied on Washington for dispassionate assessment,” one eyewitness told CBS News. “Instead, they [Washington officials] were asking us what help we needed. We answered: ‘Send reinforcements!’ ”

But they were told immediate help wasn’t available.

Embassy personnel say they repeatedly asked the Defense Attache on site in Tripoli for military assistance.

“Isn’t there anything available?” one Embassy official says he asked. “But the answer was ‘no.’”

“What about Aviano?” the official pressed, referencing the NATO air base with US assets in northeastern Italy. “No,” was the answer.

Two of the four Americans killed that night died hours after the first attack began…

…Counterterrorism sources and internal emails reviewed by CBS News express frustration that key responders were ready to deploy, but were not called upon to help in the attack. National Security Council Spokesman Tommy Vietor told CBS News the CSG was not needed.

Now we know why Obama is going on his “job” tour-make ppl think he cares about them & they’ll ignore how he doesn’t care about anybody, let alone a white gay man.

What kind of Administration is Obama running, you ask ?

For the life of me I can't imagine why he was incommunicado that night, except that an attack, fire, destruction of the compound, and probable theft, might obliterate evidence of Fast & Furious Internationale

What's a few lives if he can escape responsibility for aiding the enemy.

If he does he will be termed as joining the party late. Israel went in first. For zer0 to bomb it would be a me too moment for zer0.

God Bless Sheryl Attkinson..she is the ONLY reporter in this far left media today with the balls to investigate to find out what really happened..I hope that this info brings down Obama, it will be tough but it can be done. Obama has run a massive fraud on this country, cover up after cover up..he lies to the American people every time he opens up his fat trap

At a drunken feast just before Belshazzar's death a disembodied fingers appear and write on the wall of the royal palace the words:

מנא ,מנא, תקל, ופרסין

Mene, Mene, Tekel, Parsin

Daniel's interpretation of the matter: mina, God has numbered the days of your kingdom and brought it to an end; shekel, you have been weighed on the scales and found wanting; half-mina, your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.- Daniel 5:25-28

--

Is the writing on the wall happening again?

From your mouth to God's ear.

Damned good likelihood, and right here at home too, I’d bet.

“What in the hell kind of Administration is Obama running? “

I'm assuming this question is rhetorical.

Clinton packed the DoD with sleepers. If Kerry (I spent Christmas in Cambodia ...) gets in the way I expect his real DD214 to fall out of a file somewhere.
