It was a *kidnap US Ambassador to exchange for blind shiek* scam,

So you are lining up behind post 37?

I have not looked at that closely. My initial reaction is that it's a little "out there" but, I started this thread to accommodate all POV's.

I am.

I think at that point, they were afraid of Nov 6 GE, and were plotting it as a ‘fallback’, since Stevens was now arming the murderous MB/islamists, and trying to get the MANPADS back so US and allies’ planes, worldwide, wouldn’t get shot down, a la TWA 800, and others.

Sure, it’s more complex and convoluted than I would expect, but the MB and other 0traitor muzzie allies wanted the blind sheik released. That would have been a huge symbolic victory over the West, for them. And 0liar was more than willing to accommodate; with Valerie Jarrett in on the planning.

Gen Petraeus could shed some serious reality on this, if he wasn’t destined to wind-up like Vince Foster. I’d think, though, he’d have more than enough SF people to protect his/family’s butts.

JMO.
