It is difficult to believe that even the Obama Administration could be this incompetent. It is looking more and more like treason.

Un flipping believable. BLOGGERS knew more about the coming attacks then the hundred billion US Intelligence machine!

How much more incompetent can the Obama regime prove itself to be and still get 48% in the polls?

Jihadis Threaten to Burn U.S. Embassy in Cairo

Jihadi groups in Egypt, including Islamic Jihad, the Sunni Group, and Al Gamaa Al Islamiyya have issued a statement threatening to burn the U.S. Embassy in Cairo to the ground.

According to El Fagr, they are calling for the immediate release of the Islamic jihadis who are imprisonment and in detention centers in the U.S. including Guantanamo Bay: “The group, which consists of many members from al-Qaeda, called [especially] for the quick release of the jihadi [mujahid] sheikh, Omar Abdul Rahman [the “Blind Sheikh”], whom they described as a scholar and jihadi who sacrificed his life for the Egyptian Umma, who was ignored by the Mubarak regime, and [President] Morsi is refusing to intervene on his behalf and release him, despite promising that he would. The Islamic Group has threatened to burn the U.S. Embassy in Cairo with those in it, and taking hostage those who remain [alive], unless the Blind Sheikh is immediately released.”

Yup, we sure do have pre-911 intelligence alright. By the end of the 80's Reagan had made sure our intelligence along with our defense was top notch. But by the end of the 90's, Clinton had a wall built between the CIA and the FBI, our intelligence was in shambles, and thus we were caught completely unawares on 9/11/2001. Now 10 years later, we are again very vulnerable.

Obama presents a myriad of dangers to our beloved country.

These people are idiots. A simple look about these countries of Islamic dominance should be sufficient to err on the side of caution, and cause our government to provide adequate coverage to our U.S. personnel, and our taxpayer investments in those countries.

Leftists have no commonsense.

It would seem to me like we could cut the CIA and State Department intelligence from the next budget and not even miss them.

Apparently they think it’s better to show that THERE’S NO WATCH AT ALL (nothing said about 911 threats) than showing that somebody’s watching but myopic. Obama’s a danger to us domestically and internationally.

And further into the piece there’s a link to THIS:

Chaos at the State Dept?

I spoke with a well-placed journalist last night whose sources describe the situation at the State Department in one word: “Chaos.” The working assumption is that several American embassies may have been penetrated, or are vulnerable to attack, because so many of them rely on local residents for staff needs at the embassy, and as such may be in a position to breach security if they have been recruited by Al Qaida. Moreover, the full story of the attack on the Benghazi consulate is much worse than we have been told (except by the Independent newspaper report John and I linked to here on Thursday).

The consulate in Benghazi was an interim facility, with only a standard door lock for security, and worse, Ambassador Stevens was traveling with only a light security detail, rather than in the heavily armed convoys our diplomats in the region usually employ. The attack on the Benghazi was no mere target of opportunity spurred by reaction to the “Innocence of Muslims” film; the film is just a pretext. The killing of Amb. Stevens was a premeditated hit, planned and carried out as retaliation for the recent drone strike that killed the number two Al Qaida operative in Afghanistan recently. The vulnerability of Stevens at the Benghazi compound was scouted out carefully. All the other embassy protest activity is just covering theater.

As Drudge would say, developing. . .

It's possible they post this every year and remove it like clockwork.

It was certainly 'up' this month because a Google search turns up the listing.

I’ve been saying for months, Obama wants the Middle East to ignite before the election. He will do whatever it takes.

Winston, did you drop that memo about the State department security threat down the incinerator? Yes, but not right away. I'm hoping Fred over at Free Republic saved a copy. If there's any hope it lies in the FReds.

Well, well, well. Isn't this interesting?

I can tell all of you why our illustrious federal government didn't know of any intelligence ('actionable' or otherwise) about another 9/11 attack as we witnessed in Libya and elsewhere, would you really like to know why?

Come closer to your monitors, flat panels and old CRT's while I drop my font size just a notch while I share this lil tid bit of hard data with you, ok? Y'all ready?

The reason our intelligence services were caught with their pants down is because they're directing all of their resources to the urgent task of SPYING ON US, 'We The People' of the United States! The Feds think WE are a greater threat to their political power than al Qaeda and their affiliated terrorist groups!

Now tell me: you're not really surprised at this, are you?

I recall the medialeft trying to connect the dots following 911. Now all they ask is what the Kenyan has on his iPod.
