Seven Hundred Retired Military Special Ops Tell Congress to Form Select Committee on Benghazi
Big Peace ^ | 4/7/13 | Kerry Picket

Posted on 04/07/2013 6:01:09 PM PDT by markomalley

Seven hundred retired Military Special Operations professionals from the organization "Special Operations Speaks" sent a letter to the House of Representatives urging members to support H.Res 36, which will create a House Select Committee to investigate last September’s deadly terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya.

“It appears that many of the facts and details surrounding the terrorist attack which resulted in four American deaths and an undetermined number of American casualties have not yet been ascertained by previous hearings and inquiries,” the letter states. It continues further, "Additional information is now slowly surfacing in the media, which makes a comprehensive bipartisan inquiry an imperative. Many questions have not been answered thus far." The letter puts forth over twenty unanswered questions the select committee should address.

Congressman Frank Wolf, a sub-committee chairman on the House Appropriations Committee, issued a resolution for a House Select Committee to investigate issues surrounding the Benghazi Attack last November in the 112th Congress. He re-issued his resolution for the select committee when the 113th Congress began. The resolution currently has over 60 co–sponsors.

Only Speaker John Boehner (R–OH) can appoint a Select Committee and Boehner appears to mainly rely on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence to investigate the Benghazi attack. However, any information that may be garnered from that committee will, as always, remain classified.

Maybe every group's - military and civilian - was given a lie crafted to their 'expectation of what might have happened'... one they might believe. Might be why Obama's people can't tell the truth now - 98% of the people they took into their confidence would discover they've been lied to...

“What difference, at this point, does it make?”

Angry, fighting words from Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, this morning in response to a question from Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) when he questioned her about the Administration’s often repeated response blaming the Benghazi attack on a YouTube video.

Don’t they know that there is no story: nothing here to see: why waste their time: it’s old news: and above all, it has been pronounced dead by the Administration and has been buried.

Among other things, Obama authorized the sale of Gadaffi’s ordnance to the enemy, the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, and others who will employ it against Israel, and destabilize Jordon further.

Obama is a treasonous , lying fascist.

Thats what a Benghazi select committee investigation will show, which is why Obama allowed the attack on the mission to succeed, to prevent his treason from becoming public knowledge.All survivors of the attack have been bound over to secrecy and even their names are classified.

Lives will be threatened by Obama to keep any select commmittee from being appointed.

Boehner needs to GET REAL and investigate. But he is a whining milk sop, and enabler of the fascist take over of America.

Wow, a letter!

Now if 700 combat clad SF had shown up, that would be different.

Hillary is going through the motions of getting ready for the 2016 presidiential elections, I hope Benghazzi comes back to bite he in the butt big time. Any Republican who does not use this against her is nothing but a fool. If the presidential candidate doesn’t have the stomach to do it then I hope a swift boat type group does.

The Democrats on the investigative committee just blew kisses at her, what a sick joke of a country we have become.
