Such BS about them not knowing the facts from anyone but the ‘intelligence’ community.........MY POST from Sept. 16 th after I heard Ambassador Rice’s BALDFACE LIES.........
On Sept 16, I proved conclusively there was no protest....THREE sources, two of them American, one of them from one of those killed.

On the first lie, that the attack started as a protest, and that radical elements took advantage of the protest to launch an attack is TOTALLY false.
Sean Smith, was in the same building as the Ambassador when the attack started. He was online playing EVE and chatting with another game player. He never said anything about a protest outside the consulate. HERE ARE HIS WORDS FROM THAT NIGHT. “[vile_rat 9/11/12 12:54 PM]: assuming we don’t die tonight. We saw one of our ‘police’ that guard the compound taking pictures.” Smith was also known for his “interesting” and “morbid” sense of humor, something that is not unusual for those that have been deployed in war zones. No one knew at the time how prophetic his comment would be. Nearly two hours later, Smith typed: [vile_rat 9/11/12 2:40 PM]: F**K [vile_rat 9/11/12 2:40 PM]: gunfire He was disconnected from Jabber and never returned.

Not only did Smith not mention a protest, but one of the ‘guards’ was interviewed in a hospital after the attack. Here is what he says about that night (note the hour of attack is off by one hour, I am not sure why, but could have to do with time stamp of Smith’s computer) The guard, interviewed Thursday in the hospital where he is being treated for five shrapnel wounds in one leg and two bullet wounds in the other, said that the consulate area was quiet – “there wasn’t a single ant outside,” he said – until about 9:35 p.m., when as many as 125 armed men descended on the compound from all directions.
The men lobbed grenades into the compound, wounding the guard and knocking him to the ground, then stormed through the facility’s main gate, shouting “God is great” and moving to one of the many villas that make up the consulate compound. He said there had been no warning that an attack was imminent.
“Wouldn’t you expect if there were protesters outside that the Americans would leave?” the guard said.

That is TWO sources who show there was never a protest besfor the attack, how about a third? It so happens a Doctor from Boston was in Benghazi and ON THE PHONE with the Ambassador’s attache when the attack began. Here is what he says about that night.
Just hours before Burke was scheduled to meet with John Christopher Stevens, the US ambassador to Libya, the US consulate was attacked. Stevens and three other Americans were killed, including Glen Doherty, a Winchester native and former Navy SEAL working for a private security company.
Burke’s colleagues had spoken with Stevens just 45 minutes before the attack, and Burke was on the phone with an embassy attaché when the shelling began.
“He yelled, ‘Oh my God, Oh [expletive],’ and then he hung up,” said Burke, who was in a hotel about a mile from the consulate when the attack began. “Then we heard these deep blasts. We didn’t know what was going on. Nobody knew if the whole city was being attacked.”

Thanks. I saw your excellent post yesterday. I can see Norton’s notes in my minds eye....
‘in case of emergency...say that Romney sided with the terrorists so that the media will run that statement and not our lying testimony....lol’
If I and FReepers knew from my google efforts about what REALLY happened on 9/11/2012, how could our highly trained intelligence ‘professionals’ and the State Dept NOT KNOW? State Dept had access to the wounded security officer who was at the compound WITH Ambassador Steven’s and Sean Smith, how could they have not talked to him right away? I also am sure the video cameras monitoring the perimeter of the compound had a live feed to State Dept servers in DC and were being recorded. They would have shown no protest, only an armed assault.
Good to see you here and re-posting your post. I read your post shortly before the hearing began. Impt info.
