| Report: U.S. Rescue Team Was on Its Way to Benghazi, But Was Turned Back |
| 2016-02-19 |
| "The evidence is overwhelming that the United States had several rescue teams ready to go during the 2012 Benghazi attacks, but someone -- possibly the president himself -- prevented them from acting. So said Emmy Award-winning journalist Sharyl Attkisson to talk show host Steve Malzberg in an interview on Wednesday." |

| #5 Could it be that the Turks were the cutout the Agency used to supply the rebels with Libyan arms without the appearance of direct intervention by the Obama administration? Posted by NoMoreBS Entirely plausible, if some sort of clandestine ISIS cross border crude oil shipments were permitted. Oh wait, I've conflated duplicitous diplomatic events and times.... sorry. |

| #3 No one has bothered to investigate the personal history of the Turkish consul active in Benghazi. Or why Stephens spent time with him shortly before his death. Why such a senior Turkish diplomat was active in the Benghazi swamp really demanded an explanation that has never been supplied. |

| #2 SPOD has it right. The long held theory that someone was running guns in Benghazi and the project was abruptly terminated and everyone flown out via charter appears valid. Keeping in mind neither facility was thoroughly investigated or sanitized, let alone re-activated. Anti-Assad forces backed by the Klingons [which we've seldom heard much about] are continuing to get their arses handed to them in Syria by Russian air strikes. At the bottom of it all, the Obama administration's continued insistence on 'regime change' in Syria, coupled with the Russian response of 'come here and WWIII will begin, so go bugger off.' Oh, I have failed to mention the wasted 13 hours of potential in-extremis response time, the very precise placement of 4 or 5 mortar rounds, or the anti-Mohammad video which the Obama regime still clings to as the cause of all the difficulties. It would appear only a few minor details remain untold, or is my logic in error ? A pox on the gutless purveyors of deceit and cover-up as well as the beltway party facilitators, both past and present, who are aware of the truth, but continue to ignore it. |

| #1 After reading about the Benghazi fiasco almost non-stop since 2013, I personally have come to the conclusion, the abandonment of Ambassador Stephens and this security detail to Al Qaeda was deliberate and willful Stephens stumbled into something he should not have and it was a concern he would blab about some CIA program gone wrong that would embarrass our President and our SECSTATE SO he goes to Benghazi to dig around some more into something and when the bullets started flying, it was viewed as an opportunity to close the door on a program and keep it black. |
