“They had correspondance with the CIA station chief in Libya within 24 hours they kind of knew what was happening.”

“...there was a failure in the system because there was additional security requested. But is frustrating to see the sort of political aspect of what’s going on with this whole investigation.”

This pretty well sums up the talking points. Now, will Petraeus stick to the talking points or will he go rogue?

...a failure in the system is the big issue here. Why were those men allowed to die? Who gave the order? Why the bare bone security in the first place? What was going on in Benghazi that Obama doesn’t want the world to know about?

I don’t think it was militia prisoners...I still believe those two prisoners she was talking about were the ones they captured at the Consulate. The attack at the Annex didn’t happen for hours after the Consulate was taken out.

I think it was gun running to Al Qaeda and their affiliates to take out Assad in Syria. I have no idea why that went south...something blew up in their faces.

The guns were being diverted by Turkey to gaza through the mb in Egypt and smuggled to hamas through the Rafa tunnels.. This is what the EX SEALS were trying to stop.

Interesting info about the Libya weapons, compiled by Mesta Machine, on this thread:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/2960084/posts?page=7#4

coordinated with the mb through obama. That the weapons that were supposedly going to Syria were actually being diverted to gaza through Turkey to Egypt...and the EX SEALs were in Benghazi to stop it.

Looted Libyan arms flooding into Gaza
8:10PM BST 23 Aug 2011

The past months of unrest have already seen a flood of weaponry seized from Col Muammar Gadaffi’s troops and army stores into the increasingly volatile Egyptian Sinai.

Israeli military intelligence reports that much of the smuggled arsenal has been looted by jihadist elements and is making its way into Gaza through the tunnels at Rafah.

A senior Israeli official confirmed on Monday that while the majority of Gaza’s arsenal comes from Iran via Sudan, a rise in arms arriving from Libya is “an additional preoccupation”.

“Some of the weaponry coming from Iran enters Gaza by sea but all of the weapons from Libya are passing into Gaza by land, through the tunnels from Egypt.

Much more.
