EXCLUSIVE:
Masked from public view, two of the U.S. militarys elite special operations commandos have been awarded medals for bravery for a mission that further undercuts the Obama administrations original story about the Benghazi tragedy.
For months, administration officials have claimed no special operations forces were dispatched from outside Libya to Benghazi during the Sept. 11, 2012, al Qaeda terrorist attacks on the U.S. diplomatic mission and CIA annex because none was within range.
The Pentagon, under intense public criticism for not coming to the aid of besieged Americans, published an official timeline in November that carefully danced around the issue.
It said time and distance prevented any commandos outside Libya from reaching a CIA compound under attack. The timeline disclosed that a reinforcement flight 400 miles away in Tripoli contained two DoD personnel but did not describe who they were. Later, the official State Department report on Benghazi said they were two U.S. military personnel but provided no other details. It made no mention of special operations forces.
But sources directly familiar with the attack tell The Washington Times that a unit of eight special operators mostly Delta Force and Green Beret members were in Tripoli the night of the attack, on a counterterrorism mission that involved capturing weapons and wanted terrorists from the streets and helping train Libyan forces.
When word of the Benghazi attack surfaced, two members of that military unit volunteered to be dispatched along with five private security contractors on a hastily arranged flight from Tripoli to rescue Americans in danger, the sources said, speaking only on the condition of anonymity because the special operations forces existence inside Libya was secret.

Bingo. There is nobody else that matters here.
Whatever it is, it is a huge game changer and I am convinced Obama/US was involved in the planning. Prior to and after the attack they wanted a skeleton crew, keeping as few involved as possible, ironically there were only two people who knew what was going on in the compound, they were killed. The remaining two were peripheral. Weapons, probably, but not enough reason to risk the depth of this coverup and lies. The blind sheikh release was the breaking story prior to the attack and was the reason for the attack. They will never catch or question the killers because they know why they were there and who sent them.
ping me!
Thanks for the clarification
I wish there was a spreadsheet timeline with columns for Obama, Clinton, Benghazi, White House, etc.
Excellent intell and background as usual.
I would recommend anyone, who is really interested in this bad event to read your 3 page history and probability.
I Peter 3:14 But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. Do not fear their threats[b]; do not be frightened.15 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord.
We need men who fear GOD, not MAN
The reason, I feel, is that all the good dedicated American leaders at the top have been replaced with Obama ass kissers or boot lickers if you want to use a nice term.
I am tired of being nice.
There is NO WAY these articles about Benghazi would be seeping into MSM reports unless the “handlers” gave it a go.
I’m wondering, just speculation, that Obamacaregate is imploding so quickly and Americans are getting so angry, that Obama is going to be thrown under the bus himself. The communist handlers cannot see their vision of takeover of America swirling down the drain. Other democrats are liable to be dragged down in the anger against Obama and his lies about Obamacare that some libs are finally waking up to.
I just cannot imagine any other reason they are actually letting some of the stories about Benghazi out into the MSM. I mean, it’s been over a year and no one from the MSM has actually reported anything worthwhile in all that time. Why now?
I was wondering that myself. So many articles coming out.
Could the GOP be doing a coordinated, full court press?
Murder, pure and simple.
Why would Hillary and Obama want an openly homosexual pro-Libyan US Ambassador dead?
2) Morsi's TOP campaign pledge to all of Egypt was to get the Blind Sheik FREED from U.S. custody
3) As of Sept. 11, 2012, 0bama is potentially looking at LOSING THE ELECTION AND LEAVING OFFICE SOON, so not much time left to release the Blind Sheik. 0bama, Hillary and Morsi all want the Sheik released, but 0bama NEEDS A VIABLE PUBLIC EXCUSE TO DO IT.
4) Sanctioned by 0bama, Hillary, and Morsi and some in the Muslim Brotherhood but unknowing to Stevens, Benghazi was a staged hostage-taking of Stevens, in exchange for the Sheik.. Hillary leaves Stevens TOTALLY VULNERABLE TO BEING TAKEN HOSTAGE BY REDUCING HIS SECURITY WITH UNARMED INDIVIDUALS. IT ALL WENT BAD when some non-MB characters got involved in the attack and set fire to the compound.
5) Some of the Benghazi attackers KNOW what the plan was, and this is why they haven't been apprehended; 0bama is afraid of what they might publicly reveal. They've agreed not to speak about it in exchange for NOT being caught!
6) American evacuees from Benghazi probably don't know about the 'hostage-taking plot' (only the MB knew), but Team 0bama is afraid they might reveal some of what they heard that night.
The staged hostage-taking of Stevens in exchange for the release of the Blind Sheik is one of the ONLY scenarios that makes sense, given Team 0bama's TOTAL AVOIDANCE OF capturing the attackers. The MB will soon be on trial in Egypt. Maybe then we will learn something. The MB was on scene in Benghazi, with one saying "We were sent by Morsi".. THIS is on video!
Perhaps the Ambassador was their sick “payment”,
with the 20,000 MANPADs for MB/al Qaeda,
for the blind Sheik.
After all, the script and videos HAD been prepared
for the transfer.
But it did not go as Obama prepared
because somehow, somewhere, someone
in the plan was NOT a traitor to the USA, like him.
I will bet we find out Petraeus refused to tell the White House’s lie and they told him they would destroy him.
He said “So be it.”
So they “exposed” his girlfriend destroying both his and her marriages.
Then Obama fired him because he hates the truth and is a vindictive tyrant.
Sounded good for a moment there but then I hit “-—existence there was secret.” SECRET from who? Certainly not the Libyans if they were TRAINING THEM! Secret from us? Really? Not if they were on a training mission-—not much and certainly not for long. And traveling to go fight ain’t going to stay under a hat for long either.
Without more clear info I’m throwing the BS flag on everything but the medals, if that’s true? There if gooooes-—flutter flutter flutter.
It is my opinion that the truth on this actual mission by ambassador Stevens is such a threat to the administration and hillary that it could result in a total collapse of their power. It is the reason for gross intimidation of the over 30 employees and cia operatives on the ground that night. Something is going to blow. Too many know the truth. I suspect that Hillary had armed the Al Qaeda with stinger missiles to fight Qaddafi who was ruling the skies in the war against the terrorists in Libya.That was an act of treason. The order was to buy them back. A figure of $400 million dollars is out there. The Red Herring is that we were transferring weapons to the terrorists in Syria but that was not the case . We were trying to get our own weapons out of the terrorists that hillary put in power. Stevens was dispatched as a bag man to get the weapons. CIA weapons people were there to help with the deal. I think the truth is known inside the republican rino ranks and they are afraid to move with it.
All great points —amazing Jedi powers.
Your Kung fu velly good.
You said it better’n me.
My guess is that they will testify on the 5th of Never.
