How US Ambassador Chris Stevens May Have Been Linked To Jihadist Rebels In Syria
Michael Kelley | 46 minutes ago
US Weapons Are Going To Hard-Line Jihadists Fighting To Topple The Syrian Regime
The details of the September 11 attack that killed four Americans at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi are still murky and there's certainly more to be known.
Former CIA officer Clare Lopez argues that the key issue is "the relationship of the U.S. government, Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya with Al Qaeda."
That relationship, Lopez argues, could be connected to the rise of Islamic brigades in Syria, who recently created a "Front to Liberate Syria" to wage jihad against the Syrian regime and turn the country into an Islamic state.

For years, former presidents and Washington officials have whispered that Jimmy Carter committed treason against the U.S. and should be prosecuted. The stigma of prosecuting a former POTUS, however, and the fear of political retribution have prevented any such against Carter.
If Obama’s administration is arming the Islamic terrorists who killed 3000 people on 9.11.2001, Romney must pursue charges of treason against Obama. Political consequences be damned, Obama must not get away with arming an enemy against whom we are at war. Period.
[ Glenn Beck is unpacking this story now on his show.
On September 11 Stevens held an evening meeting with a Turkish diplomat before retiring to his room at 9 p.m. Gunfire and explosions began 40 minutes later. Is Steven’s guest for his last meeting just another eerie coincidence?
Either way it seems that the connection between Benghazi and the rise of jihadists in Syria is much stronger than has been officially acknowledged. ]
What the heck would Glenn Beck know?
Oh well, besides Everything that has happened in the middle east for the last two years because he listens to the islamists IN THIER OWN WORDS!
Who is that?
Doubt the Bam crew wanted a hostage scenario just before the elections. Perhaps trying to speed up the overthrow of Assad in Syria with more artillery to the rebels might have been a feather in the cap to Bam before Nov 6th.
I think the administration definitely knows a lot more than anybody is admitting too - but the problem is that so many of the things they do can as well be attributed to incompetence as to malice, so sometimes it’s hard to sort it out.
Everybody at the top - who would probably have been required to give or approve the orders to send help - seems to have been AWOL. Was that stupidity and incompetence, or was it intentional?
I do think the attack was connected to the weapons that Obama has been busy distributing to radical groups throughout the ME. Supposedly, at the time of the attack, there was or recently had been a group of CIA operatives in Benghazi who had been trying to track down the distribution route for the weapons.
Possibly Stevens was left there to die because the administration hoped that’s what would happen; but possibly it was an accident because they had hoped that he’d be able to put the genie back in the bottle and found out way too late that he couldn’t.
As for the attack, the jihadists obviously were looking for him and wanted to kill him. They had been tipped off and knew exactly when and where to go. They had to have planned it well in advance of the Turk’s visit.
AQ might have attacked anyway, just to show us that they were still powerful (although against no odds, since we didn’t have any military protection there) and still hated us, but this was so focused on Stevens that they must have had a further objective beyond that and it must have been coordinated from the outside. So there is the usual question, what did Obama know and when did he know it?
This has the potential to be a huge scandal for Obama and might even overwhelm the ability of the MSM to spin it favorably. Their only hope is to prevent further discussion of it.
One of the first info drops by wikileaks published in The Telegraph was State Department cables discussing a training program in the US for protest leaders for the creation of the “Arab Spring”. We brought over Muslim militants from Egypt to train them to lead the Arab Spring. Global community organizing...
I think the US government and leftist activists like Soros, code pinko and Google were all involved in creating the regimes changes in the Middle East, knowing it would lead to the Muslim Brotherhood taking over those nations they targeted. The leftist media played their part by endlessly repeating the lies that it was a freedom democracy movement.
So...why would it surprise us if the ambassador was involved with Muslim radicals in Libya when we have seen State Department cables showing the US government and Obama’s political allies funded, organized and ran the show of regime changes to the Muslim Brotherhood?
You are correct..
However the jihadis still need some further training in the missile aiming and compass reading category.
Thank you. That is where I was the most confused.
This whole Bengazi thing is beginning to sound like it's a Lybia-(Syria)Contra exercise (like Iran-Contra except for the lack of an attractive assistant).
The administraion’s going to keep pushing stories until they find one people will buy - that can’t be countered. This is closer than the film...
UNLESS... Bam was hoping to trade the Blind Shake for Stevens, without repercussions from the unwashed masses.
Plus come off as a hero for rescuing the “Ambassador.”
Morsi’s first request from our admin was for the Shake.
(intentional misspelling)
Obama represents an entity (NOT us, but using us, our power). The Islamic Jihadists are an entity.
What is the profit motive of the Obama entity for this action involving their encouragement of the Islamic Jihadist entity?
The obvious end is insane, therefore what is their real goal?
What the HELL is going on?
This was a set up for Hillary to run against Romney in 2016.
They intended to blame it on the republicans.
The left has been helping the terrorist in their quest for a Caliphate, and the terrorist have been helping the left in their quest for absolute power.
The left is not about to let some jug eared twerp get in their way. They will throw him under the bus in a heartbeat.
Thank you for the link.
So now members of the Intelligence community are the bad guys? Handing out weapons like in Nicaragua? Same group pushing the same old same old story? They're going to throw a dead raped ambassador under the bus? And the CIA with him? The plot thickens...

No transcript on the Blaze website, but they are saying this will be the topic of the Beck’s Monday show on The Blaze TV at 5:00 p.m.
