NEW YORK – As former Sectary of State Hillary Clinton prepares to testify before the House Select Committee on Benghazi, new documentary evidence of a secret State Department gun-running operation is adding fuel to the controversy over the Department of Justice prosecution of arms dealer Marc Turi.
A member of the independent Citizens Commission on Benghazi claims the publication Tuesday of new evidence that the State Department under Hillary Clinton’s leadership approved a California company to deliver arms to Libya with the goal of ousting Moammar Gadhafi exposes the hypocrisy of prosecuting Turi.
Turi believed he also had State Department approval for arranging a similar clandestine arms shipment to Libya in 2011.

“At long last, some of the details about Secretary Clinton’s Department of State gun-running operation to the al-Qaida-and-Muslim-Brotherhood-dominated Libyan rebels are beginning to emerge,” said Clare Lopez, a member of the Citizens’ Commission who served as a career operations officer with the CIA and is currently vice president for research at the Washington-based Center for Security Policy.
“It’s long been known that under President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton, the U.S. switched sides in the global war on terror, but the White House successfully concealed much about its agenda to replace secular North African leaders with Muslim Brotherhood regimes – until now,” she said.
The Washington Times reported Tuesday that two documents picked up in Benghazi after the Sept. 11, 2012, attack that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens show diplomats at the compound were tracking several clandestine State Department-authorized shipments of weapons.
One of those shipments was to be delivered to the Transitional National Council, the Libyan movement seeking to oust Gadhafi.

"Should" being the operative word.
"Won't" being the likely outcome.
Why would anyone think that she wouldn't use her position to run some guns their way?
When has aiding al Qaeda ever been a crime for Democrats?
She’ll just bluff with non-answers and “I don’t remember” answers.
The fact that so many enemies of America like obama, clinton, holder, valjar, et. al. have risen so high in our government tells me much.
Those are just the ones we know about. What about the hundreds or maybe even thousands we don’t?
Gowdy should have known about this for some time. Now he has the proof to use at this hearing. Whether he uses it or not will tell us what side he’s on or if this really is just theater.
Have you ever noticed how all progressive statists love totalitarian murderous dictators. They all want to be one.
Yes tomorrow will be his chance to shine or shut up.
The first time around she couldn't let people know that she did Bill's job for him while he played with the interns.
Nope, and it probably grated on her that she didn't get all the credit she deserved.
She rode her husband into power, now she wants it all.
And if we were smart we would just give it to her, right?
Hate to be right but there it is, and it leads us straight to Syria, ISIS and ValJars promise to the Mullahs...
All of this downstream from their mendacious behavior and Nation Building gone mad...
Perfect...

Now we're finally getting somewhere.
Idiotic. WND is tabloidesque. In this case, Ghaddafy was executed in 2011.
The Benghazi fiasco was in 2012.
The article says the Benghazi fiasco was in 2012.
The article does not dispute the year of Qadaffi’s death.
The article says the company was given approval to ship way back in 2011 but in the end did not ship anything.
It says documents were found in the burned out site afterwards pertaining to tracking arms shipments but that does not mean the documents were dated 2012- they could be, but they could also have been dated any time prior to 2012, as well for all we know. The article does not assign a date to the documents.
So while WND is a tabloid, I don’t see what your gripe is here.
Hillary is as slippery as an eel and as DIRTY as a Pig.....she will NEVER get caught up.
You are the freaking idiot on this one. Read some history, weapons were delivered to get Ghadafi out about 18 months before. Once he was killed there was all of those un used surface to air missiles ... ooops... You have no idea what you are flipping talking about, Schmuck
Alahwahoo WACK-bar ! May Allah strike down the great demon Hillary Abdullah Clinton. May she fatwa right off!/S
Oh well, Southack. Never ask yourself what happened to all of that Ghadaffi liberated ordnance.No way that the CIA seized it or boiught it at a discount and had it run through Bengazi on its way to Syria. No way that AL Quaeda intercepted it and sent it to Gaza and ISIS.
No way that Libya, a perfectly civilized, peaceful, economically viable nation now lies in smoking rubble and ruin, is bound in various degrees by Sharia law.
BTW, which side of any reality are you on anyway? Alahwahoo WACK-bar?
Count the number of times she says “I don’t recall.”
