Thanks to Hillary Clinton’s Benghazi testimony on Thursday, we now understand why the former secretary of state never wanted anyone to see her emails and why the State Department sat on documents. Turns out those emails and papers show that the Obama administration deliberately misled the nation about the deadly events in Libya on Sept. 11, 2012.
Don’t forget how we came to this point. Mrs. Clinton complained in her testimony on Capitol Hill that past Congresses had never made the overseas deaths of U.S. officials a “partisan” issue. That’s because those past deaths had never inspired an administration to concoct a wild excuse for their occurrence, in an apparent attempt to avoid blame for a terror attack in a presidential re-election year.

The “caused by an incendiary video” meme might have worked if it were not pushed so hard and consistently. I could understand that to be an initial assumption that would be set aside soon as the event unfolded. Now, however, that we know we were deliberately misled, the question is why? Mere political expedience, or something more nefarious? Given Clinton’s Communist tendencies and less-than-forthcoming behavior, I seriously suspect the latter.
I believe the correct way to have questioned her is to take some of the questions verbatim that were posed during Watergate hearings and fired them back at her, who originated them.
But some liberal commentators have been gushing about how well she did. Any truth to that?
It’s pretty simple really. The Democrats felt that the election was close enough that a bad rap on them because of Administration inaction and incompetance causing the death of 4 Americans could effect the result.
New Evidence Reveals Obama And Hillary Found Conspiring To End Criticism Of Islam In America
By Shoebat Foundation on June 10, 2014 in Innocence of Muslims
By Walid Shoebat and Ben Barrack
**SHOEBAT EXCLUSIVE**
Evidence reveals that when Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State, she conspired with President Barack Obama to snuff out criticism of Islam with a contrived and diabolical assault on the first amendment. Curiously unprompted, Obama and Hillary so vehemently insisted they had “nothing to do with” the anti-Muhammad video, but as it turns out, the opposite is true, they did play a role, counter to their claims.
On September 10th, Ambassador Christopher Stevens boarded a plane from Tripoli to the city from which he would never return alive. The meeting between Stevens and Turkey’s Consul General Ali Sait Akin that concluded little more than one hour prior to Stevens’ death has come to signify a troubling level of collaboration between the leadership of the countries both men represented.
Two days prior to Stevens’ arrival in Benghazi, a conference in Istanbul, Turkey that was all but ignored, was wrapping up. The conference was billed as an interfaith event entitled, “The Arab Awakening and Peace in the New Middle East: Muslim and Christian Perspectives” and was held on September 7-8, 2012. The final communiqué of the meeting included assaults on the first amendment:
Participants argued that discourses and languages used in the media, popular culture, schools and religious centers are extremely important. Religious leaders and decision makers should lead a process of reforming these areas.
One of the speakers at the conference was Turkey’s Foreign Minister Ahmet Davuto whose relevance will be made known shortly. As Shoebat.com has reported, joining Davuto in Istanbul were two Muslim Brotherhood spies. One is former chairman of perhaps the most notorious mosque in the U.S., Bassam Estwani and the other a man named Rateb Al-Nabulsi. In the photo below, Estwani can be seen in front of a banner that displays the date “September 7-8, 2012” (see photo below) of the conference ignored by western media:
As the conference was taking place in Istanbul, a Muslim fundamentalist in Egypt named Wisam Abdul Waris who prior to the fiasco in Egypt stated the plan to attack the first amendment called for the criminalization of any defamation of Islam and then publicly denounced the anti-Muhammad video which the Obama administration would blame for the Benghazi attacks as Shoebat.com reported.

I thought you were going to say, water board her.
She not only lied about the video, but she spent $$Millions on a commercial advocating the restriction of 1st amendment rights based on that video.
She used that lie to advocate the violation of our Constitutional rights.
That has not been mentioned during these hearings that I can recall.
No, the Leftist media is desperately trying to airbrush this disaster. Its gender politics. They are just circling the wagons. She came across as failed, tired, incompetent and corrupt. Just another typical DC politician. Nothing at all presidential about Hillary’s performance.
Don’t buy the Leftist spin machine lies. Go watch for yourself the videos.
You have too much faith in the American people.
But *we’re* the ones who are “politicizing” this.
And you have too much faith in the Leftist media machine to put lip stick on a pig.
Hillary is not Bill, it is not the 1990s when the only talk radio host was Rush and Fox News, and the Internet, were in their infancy and You Tube did not exist
In my not so humble opinion, Hillary and obama were complicit in a scheme to have Ambassador Stevens kidnapped and traded for high ranking jihadi POWs held at Gitmo.
When two Special Forces troops (who were ordered to stand down!) showed up and kicked a whole buncha of terrorist butt, the terrorists assumed they'd been betrayed and set up, after all, it is precisely what they'd do to a kafir.
So rather that hold AMB Stevens as a hostage, they murdered and sodomized him out of pure spite.
that would be delicious. Even better is to drop her off as an ambassador to a God-forsaken place like Libya and tell her that she is responsible for her own security.
Of course she knew all along,,,,,,,,,,
I’m not buying any of the leftist spin. But here’s the thing. Hillary doesn’t have to do so well at the hearings that even we’ll be convinced. Because she’ll never win us over, obviously.
She only has to do well enough to win over the mushy middle.
Yes, she did know all along.
Now, the question becomes,
“Why was she making this stuff up?”
That is when you become one step closer to the heart of this crime.
This all came about because Obama was doing the work of his globalist masters and went into Libya to oust Gaddafi and thereby leaving a weak replacement government that allowed numerous terror groups to run wild. Lying on top of it is just the vomit icing on a disgusting cake.
At first I thought such an explanation to be too smart by half. Given Clinton’s recalcitrance in providing documentation that explanation seems more credible by the day. Now . . . even if all this proves true . . . what legal recourse is there to remove her from office and put her on display upside down on a lamppost?
It looked like she had a device on the table and was being fed information. She was essentially reading information as she was answering many of the questions.
