JERUSALEM – Did the State Department scrub information about a dramatic incident the night of the Sept. 11, 2012, Benghazi attack in which U.S. Embassy staff 400 miles away in Tripoli evacuated their residential compound under possible terror threat?
The threat was taken so seriously that, according to a key embassy staffer, communications equipment was dismantled and hard drives were smashed with an ax.
The scene was first brought to light in congressional testimony last week by Gregory Hicks, the former U.S. deputy chief of mission in Libya, but it remains largely unreported by news media.
The incident also was not mentioned in the State Department probe nor was it previously reported in news accounts of the attack, which the Obama administration first claimed was a result of popular protests about an anti-Muhammad video.
In his testimony, Hicks said that about three hours after the attack began on the U.S. facility in Benghazi, the embassy staff in Tripoli noticed Twitter feeds asserting that the terror group Ansar al-Sharia was responsible. Hicks said there was also a call on the social media platform for an attack on the embassy in Tripoli.
“We had always thought that we were … under threat, that we now have to take care of ourselves, and we began planning to evacuate our facility,” he said.

Ping.
Things are getting curiouser and curiouser.
AWOL-Gate too.

The State Department and WH scrubbed everything they could about that night. There was no time to recognize the heroism and responsible behavior of those in Benghazi and Tripoli. All higher level State and WH personnel were needed to construct the lies and cover for Obama and Hillary.
I think the CIA was up to something really goofy. We may never know the truth.
YES!
Who was the guy who reportedly led this attack? He was let go from Gitmo???? When and where was he captured and taken to Gitmo?

TREASON - continuous, PRE-MEDITATED, agenda-driven, in-your-face, media-complicit, AGENCY-ABETTED, representative-enabled, ongoing...
TREASON like this republic has NEVER seen before.
AMEN!!!!!
OK, so these folks in Tripoli were getting ready for the worst - I understand that.
Now, what were all the few remaining State Dept. employees in the Benghazi consulate doing to get away from the fires during the attack, and how did the many members of the CIA in the annex not be killed?
And, what were all those CIA folks doing in a sub, sub consulate annex - not at HQ Tripoli - doing there in the first place?
Hitlery is only a freak sideshow; The key is in the CIA presence, and what the hell were they doing beyond the front lines!!!
(Did Fed-Ex have a special promotion rate that month on gun shipments from Libya thru Turkey, then to Syria??
Enquiring minds——————
