Contractors say Clinton State Department silenced them on Benghazi security lapses
Fox News ^ | 9-12-17 | Catherine Herridge, Pamela K. Browne, Cyd Upson

Posted on 09/12/2017 8:10:03 PM PDT by afraidfortherepublic

EXCLUSIVE: Security at the State Department's Benghazi compound was so dire that another contractor was brought in to clean up the mess just two weeks before the 2012 terror attack – and was later pressured to keep quiet by a government bureaucrat under then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, according to two men from the American security company.   

Brad Owens and Jerry Torres, of Torres Advanced Enterprise Solutions, say they faced pressure to stay silent and get on the same page with the State Department with regard to the security lapses that led to the deaths of four Americans.

They spoke exclusively with Fox News for “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” revealing new information that undermines the State Department's account of the 2012 terror attack in Benghazi, where Islamic militants launched a 13-hour assault from Sept. 11-12 that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens, foreign service officer Sean Smith and former Navy SEALS Ty Woods and Glenn Doherty.

Running an illegal off the books weapons warehouse and distribution center funneling illegally obtained weapons to Islamic Jihadi warring groups for Sid Blumenthal and Hillary Clinton comes with a "shared knowledge clause".

That being that if anything goes bad, you are working for a Clinton. You will not be rescued.

I assure you that I did a search. When are we all going to just agree that the FR search feature doesn’t work 95% of the time?

We've known this for five years and still they prevaricate. Justice demands accountability, and we will not forget this despicable abandonment - rather this betrayal - of our Patriots.



America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

This is the tip of the iceberg that sank the Titanic (i.e. Hillary Clinton and her corrupt State Department, esp. those connected with the Benghazi slaughter).

If these brave men are willing to testify under oath (before Gowty, Nunes, etc). about this contracting fiasco and down right incompetent management, then the Pandora’s box will open and this time the truth will come out.

There are about 33 other eyewitnesses (survivors) from the Benghazi attack who have (reportedly) been put under a non-disclosure threat re their jobs and safety is they talk to anyone.

These people, and the contractors, should be given a total blanket immunity so that they can testify under oath what they know about the fiasco that got four diplomats and security officers brutally killed by Islamic extremists.

Damn it! It is time that some Republican committee chairman take this issue by the balls and squeeze so hard that Hillary will have a heart attack from what comes out in sworn testimonies.

I want Obama to sweat like a pig in heat in fear of what is going to come out about his “Unfit for Command” actions during this whole affair. Might as well throw in all the other jerkoffs who were in the situation room or the military brass who refused to let special rescue teams and planes take off as soon as the attacks began.

The jails should be filled with these incompetents and traitors, and I won’t mind of some of them were legally shot for “cowardice” or “treason”, or both.

Well said! That is my fondest wish, too! I'm sure I'm not alone.

And I hope all of these witnesses will have a security detail that will keep them from winding up on the Arkancide list.

Full truth about Benghazi would gut both political parties. Which I think would be great.

But any die-hard partisans out there who fully buy in to the left-right thing as an authentic contest of political philosophies based on principle, don’t really want to know the truth about Benghazi.

They, like anyone, are entitled to live in the fantasy world of their choosing.

It doesn't matter. The post mavens on Free Republic get some kind of a weird salacious pleasure out of seeking and finding duplicate posts and putting in nya-nya-nya gotcha entry in the alleged offender's post.

an aside, I’ve just started to look at some of the art threads linked on your profile page.

Wonderful, thank you for these!! I had no idea all of this was here on FreeRepublic. I think I have only glimpsed fragments of this site, since I tend to just stop in to look at current day news and commentary.

I look forward to exploring your threads and hope to make some comments. Thank you.

When Benghazi happened I knew in a real world it would torpedo Obama’s election bid. It is discouraging and amazing that he and Hillary actually got away with such a horrid tragedy. Meanwhile MSM and RINOs are up in arms about the Russia election lie. Surreal. I remember Jake Tapper, at ABC then, people pushing him to investigate Benghazi. He said there wasn’t evidence to pursue. He had some credibility as honest but not after that. Sickening.

Thanks for the ping, prof!

Hope Brad Owens and Jerry Torres have extra protection detail. Beeotch of Benghazi does NOT play nice.
