JW Documents Reveal Obama Administration Knew Benghazi Attack 10 Days in Advance

... A Defense Department document from the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), dated September 12, 2012, the day after the Benghazi attack, details that the attack on the compound had been carefully planned by the BOCAR terrorist group “to kill as many Americans as possible.” The document was sent to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, then-Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Obama White House National Security Council. The heavily redacted Defense Department “information report” says that the attack on the Benghazi facility “was planned and executed by The Brigades of the Captive Omar Abdul Rahman (BCOAR).”

Thanks to Liz for this. This is the first that I have heard many of these details. Apologies to the ping list. I am traveling and away from most of my files and unable to ping this.

Since at least 2013 it has been my hypothesis that Clinton set up Stevens to be killed, because he knew too much about the gun running and probably had some inconvenient moral qualm about running guns to al-Qaeda that made him too risky.

To which federal agency does the guy who made the video go to to get his life back? Surely not the State Department.

CIRCA 2015 NYP-— The job of Clinton damage control through a parade of scandals has fallen to her top aide (and perennial govt parasite) Cheryl Mills. Mills’ lack of cooperation is legendary. In fact, she’s been officially accused of both perjury and obstruction of justice. Sworn affidavits, depositions and court rulings, as well as congressional reports and testimony, paint a picture of, to put it charitably, a brazenly dishonest cover-up specialist.

Among Mills shenanigans:

<><> •As White House deputy counsel, Mills ordered Commerce Department officials to “withhold” from investigators emails and other documents detailing then-President Clinton’s and First Lady Hillary Clinton’s allegedly illegal selling of seats on foreign trade junkets for campaign cash, according to sworn statements by Commerce’s former FOIA chief. “Ms. Mills, in her position as deputy counsel to the president, advised Commerce officials to withhold certain documents,” testified Sonya Stewart Gilliam in a July 2000 sworn affidavit taken by Judicial Watch, a government watchdog group in Washington. “The Commerce Department’s collaboration with White House Deputy Counsel Mills on these matters was, in my experience, highly irregular and at variance with normal procedures.

<><> •At the same time, a federal judge ruled that Mills “failed miserably” to take proper steps to search for and recover 1.8 million Executive Office of the President and Office of the First Lady emails under subpoena in the Monica Lewinsky and Filegate scandal investigations, after computer contractors discovered them mysteriously missing from the automated White House archiving system. Mills, who was in charge of finding the lost email, conveniently made “the most critical error” in recovering them.

<><> US District Judge Royce Lamberth concluded in a 63-page opinion, adding that he found Mills actions “loathsome.” In fact, Judicial Watch accused Mills of orchestrating a “cover-up” in what became known as “Email-gate.” Her court testimony in the case, during which she repeatedly answered “I don’t have a recollection,” sounds like an interview with an amnesia patient. (In the end, the emails were never recovered).

<><> •In another scandal, Mills “concealed” so many subpoenaed emails and other documents detailing allegedly illegal fundraising activity between the White House and the Democratic National Committee — specifically, Hillary’s illegal integration of White House and DNC computer databases — that staff lawyers for the House Government Oversight Committee in 1998 sent a criminal referral to the Justice Department demanding federal prosecutors charge Mills with obstruction of justice and perjury. “Ms. Mills knowingly and willfully obstructed the investigative authority of this committee by withholding documents,” the panel concluded in a 647-page investigative report. “Moreover, when this obstruction was brought to light in a hearing before the committee, Ms. Mills lied under oath about the documents and the circumstances surrounding their nonproduction.”

<><> •In October 2012, Mills sorted through key Benghazi documents and decided which ones to withhold from an independent review board. She also leaned on witnessses. Deputy ambassador to Libya Gregory Hicks testified before Congress in 2013 that Mills told him in an angry phone call to stop cooperating with investigators.

<><> •On behalf of the Clintons, Mills negotiated the weak conflict-of-interest rules for disclosing foreign donations to the Clinton Foundation with the Obama administration. She also reportedly helped broker international payments to the group. In short, Mills “is in the middle of it,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said.

Obama speaks at ANDREWS AFB ceremony receiving the
remains of Americans slaughtered at Benghazi, as Hillary listens.

"I wish this boob would stop talking so I can think.
Dammit, four dead sure puts a crimp in my presidential plans.
Well, as Bill would say: just blame Republicans."

[RobertoinAL]

My thoughts too!

[Nifster]

Fitton is doing yeoman was rk

[granada]

So what?
Were there any Republican lawmakers wanted to dig into Benghazi 9/11? Rand Paul. And..... ?

Libya operation was endorsed by Democrats and their neocon GOP partners.
So they gave Obama/Hillary a pass, as usual.

[Bullish]

But... But... Trump Russia collusion is bigger than Watergate, then he obstructed justice by denying it... Or something. Besides, Obama’s old news anyway, Right?

That’s all they’ve got folks, and they’re gonna’ go with it. We’re not dealing with chess players here.

[Piranha]

This information is very important, of course. Since the article dates from 2015, I wonder why you posted it today. Is there a news hook to it?

[Republicanprofessor]

Good question. I noticed the date when I posted it, but as I said I had not known these facts until Liz sent me the link today. Perhaps the story was buried until now.

Liz??

[piasa]

The hook is Iran. In the days immediately before the Benghazi attack, Canada responded to some of its intelligence by kicking out all Iranian diplomats and also by closing the Canadian embassy in Iran. The report of this came out Sept 6th and Canada gave the Iranians 5 days to leave.
