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.

The Syrian Information Minister just called the bombing in Beirut a “Terrorist Act”. AMERICA’S PRESIDENT WILL NOT CALL AN ATTACK BY JIHADISTS A “TERRORIST ATTACK”! If this doesn’t speak volumes about 0bama, nothing does.

The USA and NATO just overthrew one Gov’t in favor of another. We were aiding the rebels and coordinating bombing with them. OF COURSE someone had to be be overseeing the distribution of cash, communications equipment, and guns to them.

As is the case with all such Gov’t plans, the law of unintended consequences kicks in, as well as the fallacy of control. Quite of few of the thugs being pulled into Uncle Sam’s embrace probably hate the USA as much as they hated Qadaffi. They knew Stevens, and they knew where to find him.

Play with fire, and you will get burned.

Depending on what she knew and did, Hillary might get perp walked too.

Hell, she and Bill burned a lot more that 4 people to death in Waco and nothing happened.

Perp walking anybody in this administration is nothing more than a wet dream.

Morris says today on Hannity that Obama’s October surprise will be a deal with Iran for them to cease nuclear production. And he will be the savior of the U.S. Barf alert.

What if the other three Americans in the attack, Sean Smith, Glen Doherty, and Tyrone Woods were all beheaded...wouldn’t that cause some in Congress to finally act on impeachment? Haven’t been able to verify that this happened as fact, but have read it on several blogs since the attack and the Stevens death photos, and still researching to confirm.

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 remember reading about these connections when it came out; however, recently I looked and could not find any references. If you have or come across any links to articles on this I would appreciate you pinging them or sending them to me.

Thanks.

Impeachment! I agree!

and here’s the thing I can’t understand. How is it that I knew that this was about supplying arms to terrorists right away and I dont know much about the Middle East, and yet Congress, who knows way more than the rest of us of how dirty politics is and only a few Of them on the committee seemed to barely scratch the surface of what was going on?

Seriously, I’m sure they figured it out too and maybe even some of them knew about it beforehand, but all we got was one guy calling for a follow up committee meeting which presumably is going to be held behind closed doors.

Point is, even if we are able to pop the blackhead that is Obama, we will still have a whole S load of Senators and Congressmen lying to us and hiding things from us. We might dodge one bullet but the war is not gonna be over til we get rid of every last traitor in our government.

Stevens, after all, was homosexual and would know Islam does not looks kindly upon his people.

His people? I would say homosexual sex defines a disorder -not a people. Anyway, I think with this observation you have pointed out the obvious delusion inherent in all leftists -they are utopians who think order is about controlling others rather than simply being responsible for themselves -they are delusional.

Looks like Stevens was the Man Who Knew Too Much and had to be eliminated by the Obama/Hillary cabal.

His being in Benghazi instead of Tripoli that day was not coincidence.

Stevens himself was not “optimal” to the Obama Re-election Campaign.

I know I read it at The Telegraph. When I tried to find a link about six months later, it was gone. At that time The Telegraph was receiving and writing about a lot of State Department cable document dumps by wikileaks and the US government was threatening government workers who clicked on the wikileak stories. I’m not surprised it has disappeared from the internet.

I read it. I remember it. That is enough for me in this strange day and age. :)

Thanks. I will see what I can find -I have for sometime felt that Google was in the pocket of leftists so maybe another search method is warranted.

Is thiswhat you're looking for? Look at Egypt protests: secret US document discloses support for protesters

Read from www.IsraelNationalNews.Com, WikiLeaks: US Secretly Backed Plans for Rebellion in Egypt.

You might want to look at 2011–2012 Egyptian revolution.

Neither does protocol demand a Marine detachment nor is the Ambassador (in any country) to always be a neutral party. Where do you come up with this nonsense?
