Benghazi Bombshell: No Evidence of Obama’s ‘Three Directives’
Breitbart ^ | 28 Jun 2016 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 06/28/2016 3:31:56 PM PDT by detective

The House Select Committee on Benghazi report contains at least one major bombshell: the committee found no evidence of the “three directives” that President Barack Obama claimed he issued when he first learned about the ongoing terror attack.

Neither the committee’s official report, nor the Democrats’ dissenting minority report, mentions the “three directives.” (In fact, President Obama barely features in the Democrats’ report at all, as if someone else were Commander-in-Chief that evening.)

From the article:

"I gave three very clear directives. Number one, make sure we are securing our personnel and that we are doing whatever we need to. Number two, we are going to investigate exactly what happened and make sure it doesn’t happen again. Number three, find out who did this so we can bring them to justice.

Obama’s account was repeated by former White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel, and echoed by other Democrats. However, the directives are absent from the final Benghazi reports."

It appears that Obama lied about his three directives.

Shocker. But liberals like to be lied to. It tells them “I’m one of you”.

Only in a world ruled by the MSM can such a tragedy go unpunished.

In other words, the lying liars in the white house have once again been found to be lying.

They lie about everything. They lie even when there’s no reason to lie. And to think the black butthead promised the most ethical and transparent admin in history.

Bwahahahahahaha!

The Sultan’s Vizier is the commander in chief and that would be, in the case of the Sultanate of North America, Valerie Jarrett.

I watched 13 Hours the other night. Horrible, what those men in that compound went through - the few that survived. It nearly made me physically sick.

Where’s the bombshell? Obama lied and Clinton lied? That’s not a bombshell that’s how they operate and that’s been clear for years.

Benghazi only matters to those who care (Americans) no one on the liberal left could give a rats ass about it.

4:21 pm at the White House Situation Room meeting, prior to the White House 5pm meeting is a logical time the order could have been given, if not even prior to that, but the Secretary(Panetta) knows of 'word of the attack' before he left the pentagon to attend the 5pm meeting according to this report, and only acknowledges 'guidance' as opposed to getting an order.

http://benghazi.house.gov/sites/republicans.benghazi.house.gov/files/documents/13%20App%20G%20Attack%20Timelines.pdf

4:21 pm / 10:21 pm —The White House Situation Room convenes a meeting.

Pages 37, 38
http://benghazi.house.gov/sites/republicans.benghazi.house.gov/files/documents/2%20Part%20I%20Redacted%20DR.pdf

After seeking refuge, one of the agents in Villa B then contacted the TOC in Tripoli and the other agent contacted the State Department’s Diplomatic Security Command Center[DSCC] in Washington D.C. at 9:49 p.m. Benghazi time[3:49 p.m. in Washington, DC].

page 69
http://benghazi.house.gov/sites/republicans.benghazi.house.gov/files/documents/2%20Part%20I%20Redacted%20DR.pdf

Although the Embassy in Tripoli and the Diplomatic Command Center at the State Department in Washington received word almost immediately that the Benghazi Mission compound was under attack, that notice did not make its way to the National Military Command Center, the operations center at the Pentagon, until 4:32 p.m. local time in Washington D.C.

pages 87, 88
http://benghazi.house.gov/sites/republicans.benghazi.house.gov/files/documents/2%20Part%20I%20Redacted%20DR.pdf

Just minutes after word of the attack reached the Secretary, he and General Martin E.Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, departed the Pentagon to attend a previously scheduled 5:00 p.m. meeting at the White House with President Obama and National Security Advisor Thomas E. Donilon. The Secretary recalled two details about the attack on the U.S. facility in Benghazi: a building was on fire and Stevens was missing. As the Secretary and Dempsey briefed the President on the evolving situation in Benghazi, Libya, the Secretary recalls the following guidance: The President made clear that we ought to use all of the resources at our disposal to try to make sure we did everything possible to try to save lives there.

They let 4 Americans die so as to save Ayatollah Obamas reelection, that is the bottom line. From the second it started all they cared about was spinning it with Hitlery front and center of the plan. That is TREASON once again folks, but damn if we have anybody with balls in this government to do anything about it.

Numbers two and three sound like he already knew there would be death because he knew there would be no help.
He always likes to get up and say they will hunt down and prosecute the bad guys after the fact but what I want to hear from our leader is that we killed the bad guys before they killed us!

Also from the last debate with Romney;
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/transcript-of-final-2012-presidential-debate/

Now with respect to Libya, as I indicated in the last debate, when we received that phone call, I immediately made sure that, number one, that we did everything we could to secure those Americans who were still in harm’s way; number two, that we would investigate exactly what happened, and number three, most importantly, that we would go after those who killed Americans and we would bring them to justice.

Our REAL gubmint (the Muslim Brotherhood) made the final call. After all, they were determined to trade the Ambassador for the Blind Sheik.

I heard that when he left the “ situation room” for Vegas that night he didn’t appoint anyone in charge... He turn at the door and simply said “ do
what you gotta do” and left....this while people died....what a POS!
