Exclusive: Confidential source reveals to me what really happened in Benghazi

Today as I returned from Detroit, I had a moment that I truly felt was God sent, as I don’t believe in coincidences. It happened on one of my flights, and it was two hours I will never forget.

I was seated beside someone who personally knew one of the men who was there on the roof in Benghazi. This person was excited to share with me the “ground truth” of what happened September 11, 2012.

My seat mate drew schematics to orient me to the “time and spacing” and the direction of the attack. I learned about the repeated orders to the men at the CIA annex to stand down and do nothing — thank God two of them, Glenn Doherty and Ty Woods, lived up to their code of honor and ran to the sound of the guns, resulting in their loss of life — but the preservation of life for others, their fellow Americans.

I learned about the proximity of the staging area of the attack to the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, and the attackers were indeed Ansar al-Sharia, a group affiliated with al-Qaida. I came to understand why Ambassador Chris Stevens was there in the first place and that he had in fact requested better security but was denied – the question is, by whom? And I learned that the Martyrs of 17 February Brigade were in charge of security and were the ones who opened the gates, then fled.

I learned there are those who are being threatened with their pensions being cut off if they come forth to speak.

And I learned, as I presumed, that there was a covert weapons scheme going on in Libya, Benghazi.

...and worst of all, potentially treason.

Potential? Is he kidding?

We know one thing, Allen does not put things out without caution. Keeping a source safe sometimes calls for a third party. I believe good things are happening behind the scenes in getting to the truth and finding those responsible for treasonous actions. Thinking Trey Gowdy and Allen have talked and this information coming out is to rattle some cages. Just my opinion.

[seekthetruth]

Missed it. Please share what Allen said. Thanks!

Basically just reiterated what he wrote about.

Basically just reiterated what he wrote about.

Even that is a warning shot to the MSM that something is afoot, and they better start “ real investigative reporting” or the kill shot will be taken.

[Jedidah]

That is my take, too.

Good team there, Gowdy and West.

[txhurl]

Do you know when the hearing convene?

[Vermont Lt]

Sounds like something from Alex Jones or Glen Beck. I heard it from someone who was there, and they gave me all the secrets... But we are sworn to secrecy.

Put your hand on a bible and swear before God. Then people will believe you.

[Jedidah]

I don’t think they’ve set a date.

The Dems have just this week agreed to participate. There will be all kinds of organizing and arguing to be done before it begins. Earlier the better, but don’t hold your breath.

How narrowly partisan./s

Obama Administration .... All Lies All the Time....

[TEARUNNER14]

There is absolutly no place for Obama or Clinton to hide from responsibility due to the sensitive nature of the operations

I guess on the bright side of all this if Obama should be impeached, then we get Joe Biden as president. Won't that be a blast having hoof and mouth running the country.

I am a Constitutional Bible believing American veteran who served my country honorable and our president can't even serve our country without lying like the non-American he is and that is disgraceful.

[nikos1121]

I think this is true. Shades of the Jimmy Carter hostage crisis.

In fact those four gave their lives, actually those two men, unknowingly to save Obama’s presidency. Had they not acted the remaining Americans would have been taken hostage or killed.

So, Obama and company, sneaked thru.

I think Gowdy, and everyone knows the truth of what happened. Despicable cowardice that today of all days shows how much different this country is from days gone by.

I am impatient like the rest of you, but I want this to drag out, along with all the other scandals, so in the end we have a full republican house and senate.

Nothing much worse than putting up with some misinformed sort who insists that he and he alone knows what is correct even though he might as well be saying that the Sun rises in the South and sets in the North. I listen to some people and cringe thinking that maybe, just maybe, I have said something just as absurd at some time in the past.
