DEVASTATING!… CBS Publishes Benghazi Investigation – Pummels Administration
thegatewaypundit.com ^ | 5-5-2013 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 05/05/2013 5:24:41 PM PDT by servo1969

CBS released information on the Benghazi 9-11 massacre today that could potentially bring down the Obama Administration.

Buried in their report (down in paragraph eight) CBS reported, “Throughout the night, sources say Americans on the ground in Libya at times felt helpless and abandoned… But they were told immediate help wasn’t available.” But, counterterrorism sources and internal emails reviewed by CBS News express frustration that key responders were ready to deploy, but were not called upon to help. CBS reported:

Throughout the night, sources say Americans on the ground in Libya at times felt helpless and abandoned.

“We relied on Washington for dispassionate assessment,” one eyewitness told CBS News. “Instead, they [Washington officials] were asking us what help we needed. We answered: ‘Send reinforcements!’ ”

But they were told immediate help wasn’t available.

Embassy personnel say they repeatedly asked the Defense Attache on site in Tripoli for military assistance.

“Isn’t there anything available?” one Embassy official says he asked. “But the answer was ‘no.’”

“What about Aviano?” the official pressed, referencing the NATO air base with US assets in northeastern Italy. “No,” was the answer.

Two of the four Americans killed that night died hours after the first attack began…

…Counterterrorism sources and internal emails reviewed by CBS News express frustration that key responders were ready to deploy, but were not called upon to help in the attack. National Security Council Spokesman Tommy Vietor told CBS News the CSG was not needed.

they need to put Gowdy in charge of asking ALL of the questions

Big bump on that, he has the attitude and knowledge to take it to them.

Now why would she do something as crazy as that? Was that her acting on her own or was she under orders from the triumvirate of Obama, Jarret and Axelrod?

No-one even breaks wind in the White House without Jarret and Axelrod knowing about it.

Actually this is God’s battle. If he so chooses, the finger will again write the message on the wall.

Question is, who would interpret it? Guess that is unimportant, When this happened to Belshazzar what really mattered was not the interpretation, but the destruction of his nation.

But God wanted Belshazzar to know why it happened before he destroyed him.

Very true you can add moochhell to the list as well,rumors are sometimes its sort of a presidential free for all since zero does nothing but campaign,fund raise play with his pal reggie, golf and watch tv.

It's quite likely he wasn't even called for Benghazi,why bother he never has input anyway.

Haven't seen any sharper or more direct than him.
No BS about him at all.
If only we had a few hundred more like him in congress.

“Throughout the night ... help wasn’t available.”

Almost seventy years ago, on June 6th, another dilettante stayed up too late and no one would wake him to see if he wanted to send panzers to Normandy.
But Herr Obama was watching as it happened. And that’s all he did.

If the attack had occurred the week after the election, those four people would still be alive.

I don't think so. It is a basic fact that 0dumb0 & his corrupt administration will do anything that is needed to support & shill for the muzzies, especially those who hate America. In the tragedy & murder of 4 Americans at Benghazi, the thing that is missing over & over again from 0bama, Hillery, Panetta, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mullen, is a call to action from any of these 4 traitors, to go in with military support & to rescue the 4 Americans or at least lend air cover support. These 4 traitors deliberately avoided any mention of rescue or air support, because if it was never mentioned or considered to be an option, then in their twisted minds, they could not be held responsible for 4 dead Americans including the U.S. ambassador to Libya.

Re. previous post, I believe the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the Benghazi attack was Dempsey, not Mullen.

To the contrary. If this gets serious, the Democrat "mainstream" newsrooms will circle the wagons for their African communist, Ubama.

If it's shoved in their faces, the MSM will have to cover this. The press can't afford to lose any more credibility... they're becoming a laughing stock.
