EXCLUSIVE: The recent theft of massive amounts of highly sensitive U.S. military equipment from Libya is far worse than previously thought, Fox News has learned, with raiders swiping hundreds of weapons that are now in the hands of militia groups aligned with terror organizations and the Muslim Brotherhood.
The equipment, as Fox News previously reported, was used for training in Libya by U.S. Special Forces. The training team, which was funded by the Pentagon, has since been pulled, partly in response to the overnight raids last August.
According to State Department and military sources, dozens of highly armored vehicles called GMV's, provided by the United States, are now missing. The vehicles feature GPS navigation as well as various sets of weapon mounts and can be outfitted with smoke-grenade launchers. U.S. Special Forces undergo significant training to operate these vehicles. Fox News is told the vehicles provided to the Libyans are now gone.

But was this really a theft? Or did the Fed.gov GIVE the enemy the weapons, as they did in Operation Fast and Furious, and as they are now doing, in Syria? Of course, in the infamous words of Hillary Clinton: “What difference does it make?” LOL!!

Between them, federal, state and local law enforcement does this all the time. So?

And when they are used on American soil to kill dozens of innocent women, children and men? What then? Can we send Obama to prison then?
