Obama and Al Qaeda
During the campaign in the summer of 2012, Barack Hussein Obama bragged that Osama bin Laden and his lieutenants were dead and Al Qaeda was almost defeated. And he insinuated that the “War on Terror” was over. However, the “Arab Street” was chanting, “Obama, Obama, we are all Osama!” On 9/11/12 there was an attack on the mission in Benghazi that Team Obama tried to say was a ‘demonstration’ and blamed on a little seen YouTube video. But facts are pesky things. Al Qaeda furnished the leadership for the attack to cover a kidnapping attempt on Ambassador Chris Stevens for the Muslim Brotherhood. Later demonstrations in Egypt and other places had Al Qaeda flags displayed prominently.
Now in August of 2013, we are faced with closing 19, 22, 28? embassies and consulates for 4, no 10 days, and some maybe until after 9/11/2013. The reason for these closings? Probable Al Qaeda attacks. We now know that Al Qaeda furnished the leadership for the revolution in Libya, Al Qaeda has taken over the leadership of the Syrian rebels, has a strong presence in Yemen and other parts of the Arabian peninsular, and is a great influence in most of the jihadist groups in Africa. Also the Muslim Brotherhood is not democratic or secular, but fanatically Islamofascist and an ally with Al Qaeda. Obama’s epic failure in Egypt has him hated by The Muslim Brotherhood, the army, and the democratic factions that support the Egyptian Army against Morsi and the MB. A popular Egyptian video by Sama Elmasry demonstrates their contempt.
Also, finally, the truth is coming out about the Benghazi attack and why Team Obama went to such lengths to cover up what happened. A shocking revelation came out Monday, August 5th. About 5:00 p.m., Obama was briefed by SecDef Leon Panetta and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Martin Dempsey. Then Obama retired to his quarters. After supper Obama had a telephone conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Senior Advisor to the President, Valerie Jarrett was present for this two hour phone conference due to problems caused by Obama snubbing Netanyahu in prior formal meetings. After the call drew to a close, Ms. Jarrett, who is also the Assistant to the President for Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs, went from the living quarters to the White House Situation Room, where the attack in Benghazi was being monitored by Dempsey, Panetta and other top-ranking officials, possibly including Hillary Clinton.
A critical decision had to be made, whether to send air support and a rescue force from Tripoli, an AC-130 Spectre gunship and a C-130 transport with Spec Ops soldiers, and/or a Ready Reaction force and F-16s from Savonella, Italy. President Obama was resting for the next day’s trip to Las Vegas for a big campaign fundraiser and was not interested in attending. Ms. Jarrett, in Obama’s absence gave the “Stand Down” order.
Valerie Jarrett is a trusted senior adviser, sometimes ‘Mommy’, an often described as “handler” for Barack Hussein Obama, BUT she has NO military training, expertise, or authority. She is not in the Chain-of-Command. She is a liberal (Afrocentric & Islamophile) political wonkette. Obama didn’t want to be bothered and he unconstitutionally “delegated” the responsibility to her. She made the decision based on Obama didn’t want to be bothered, NOT on the tactical conditions, or any interest in saving American lives. (My opinion is she and Obama both knew that the ‘attack’ was cover for the kidnapping, and Obama had agreed to it to trade Stevens for The Blind Sheik.) Ms. Jarrett had NO Lawful Authority to give this order, and it was GROSS CRIMINAL MALFEASANCE on both of their parts for Obama to allow or order her to do so. It was also gross malfeasance for those present to follow her order and criminal malfeasance for them to be party to the subsequent cover-up. (I don’t believe that Panetta or Gen. Dempsey were party to the kidnap plot, but Hillary Clinton and Huma Abedin most probably were.)
This is why there has been such a desperate effort at a cover-up. Not only was Amb. Stevens killed, but on 6/5/2013 it was revealed than an Al Qaeda leader and weapons expert, Abdallah Dhu-al-Bajadin, said that Stevens was killed by a “fatal injection”. The known facts suggest that Stevens was given a sedative to facilitate his kidnapping, but such drugs suppress respiration and coupled with lung damage due to smoke inhalation, possibly complicated by other injuries, he simply stopped breathing. Also Obama was loudly denying supplying any weapons or military supplies to the Syrian rebels, the first shipment of missiles had already left Benghazi aboard a Libyan ship, named Victory in Arabic, bound for Iskenderun, Turkey. The cover-up quickly started to come unraveled, though it took some time for people to put the pieces together. A demonstration to protest a video would not include RPGs and mortars. The timelines didn’t fit. Why was Gen. Carter Ham removed from command of Africom? Retired Admiral Lyons was the first to suggest the ‘Kidnap plot’ on 11/14/2012, he was not taken seriously, but as evidence was gathered, it became the logical answer to fit the evidence. Furthermore, why were the other 7 security and CIA people wounded sequestered and kept from the media and even Congressmen? Why were the 35 (+) people evacuated forced to sign Non-Disclosure Agreements, given multiple lie-detector tests over the past months, and possibly even new identities for some? (The new identities has not been fully substantiated, yet.)
But it is coming together. Judge Jeanine Pirro gave an excellent presentation 8/3/13 on the lousy investigation by the FBI, lack of serious investigation of identified suspects involved in the attack, and NSA failure to intercept terrorists but harass Americans. Long time Democrat operative and pollster Pat Caddell revealed on Fox 8/5/13 more info on Benghazi and that the IRS abuses lead right to the White House. Many traditional Democrats are gravely concerned about this administration now. But Obama and his minions still insist that these are “phony scandals!”
