And I don't see Onama's name anywhere in this nicely done article.

One little hint :

*************************************EXCERPT******************************************

The CIA has already played at least a supporting role, the officials say.

The meme is: it's Qatar's doing.

The Spanish security forces announced today that they had caught a bunch of AQ recruits heading to Syria, where AQ apparently now has a training camp. They were all Spanish citizens and all of Moroccan origin (that is, not converts but people from that background). They were going to learn how to use modern weapons.

Obama, whether intentionally or idiotically, is establishing a training center for AQ, armed with weapons provided by us through Libya.

Spain is afraid that they will use these to attack Europe and I’m sure they will. And since it appears to be very easy to get in and out of our US borders if you are a Muslim, I think they’ll probably use them on us, too.

"Fred Thompson Calls Benghazi ‘Biggest Cover-Up in American History’"

No doubt it's bad, but that seems a stretch; who's the daddy? Check out article and #5.

A start in the right direction. Will the Alphabet’s continue their silence on this one.

Doesn’t appear that Fox and Drudge are picking up on this as of yet.

Lets go check and see what now shows up in the Canada Free Press website.

Why, yes......of course.......Hillary and Obama used American taxpayer funded personnel, equipment and money to overthrow the government of Libya just so they could get some rifles to send to those poor people in Syria. Remember how, all their lives, Hillary and Obama have fought to help the people of Syria? What a crock of bull s**t. Libya is the end of the Democrat party. They will do anything to stop people from looking into Libya.

More proof of the Limbaugh Theorem - anything to keep all criticism away from Obama. This is going to backfire as it’s blatantly obvious that from all the scandals to amnesty and Obamacare - everything originates with Obama/Jarret/Axelrod and the rest of the WH inner circle. We need WH whistle-blowers. Anyone ready to be a national hero/heroine?

From The New York Times. They have crossed the line from just being paid shills for the Democrats to being accessories to everything that Hillary and Obama have done. Hey! New York Times! How much are you charging the Democrats to write for them? You should charge them by the dead body. You could give them a volume rate. You know.....5% off for 1,000 dead.......10% off for 10,000. They are happy to pay for you to help them in this bloodbath for profit.

More on the Limbaugh Theorem - Rush: " People do not associate Obama with his agenda, and that's because he's permanently campaigning. He's running against his own agenda, by design, on purpose. He's running against what's happening. He makes people think that he doesn't like what's happening and he's trying to fix it when in fact everything that's happening is precisely because he wants it to and has made it happen."

and

. . "I'm telling you, that's because low-information voters are in these polls, and they think that what's happening in the country has nothing to do with Obama. Because he's out campaigning against things. He's perpetually campaigning. He's not seen as responsible for any of this."

Can you imagine what the MSM would be doing to Bush the last two weeks?

How many times have we heard "Bush's fault."

How about we take the basic premise that everything is Obama's fault and go from there. . What's the saying,'Turnabout is fair play.' What do you mean, I thought they were into fairness? What? I'm under arrest. What for? Wait. . I just. .

Looks like Hagmann hasn’t produced any follow up articles on the UK Telegram, article, as of yet.

Thanks Ernest!
During his more than four decades in power, Libya’s Moammar Gadhafi was North Africa’s outrageously self-styled arms benefactor, a donor of weapons to guerrillas and terrorists around the world fighting governments he did not like... Many of the same people who chased the colonel to his grave are busy shuttling his former arms stockpiles to rebels in Syria. The flow is an important source of weapons for the uprising and a case of bloody turnabout, as the inheritors of one strongman’s arsenal use them in the fight against another... a complex and active multinational effort, financed largely by Qatar, to transport arms from Libya to Syria’s opposition fighters. Libya’s own former fighters, who sympathize with Syria’s rebels, have been eager collaborators... an unregistered arms pipeline that is difficult to monitor or control... Extremist fighters, some of them aligned with al-Qaida, have the money to buy the newly arrived stock, and many rebels are willing to sell. For Russia... this black-market flow is a case of bitter blowback. Many of the weapons that Moscow proudly sold to Libya beginning in the Soviet era are now being shipped into the hands of rebels seeking to unseat another Kremlin ally.
Qatar and Saudi Arabia support rival militias, but Qatar is better at it.
