Ret. Lt. Col. My Sources Say Obama Was in the Room Watching Benghazi Attack Happened

[rdean]

So YOU admit that NOT ONE American was killed, BUT FOUR (4) were killed in Benghazi, besides civilians that were also present!

January 22, 2002. Calcutta, India. Gunmen associated with Harkat-ul-Jihad al-Islami attack the U.S. Consulate. Five people are killed.

June 14, 2002. Karachi, Pakistan. Suicide bomber connected with al Qaeda attacks the U.S. Consulate, killing 12 and injuring 51.

October 12, 2002. Denpasar, Indonesia. U.S. diplomatic offices bombed as part of a string of "Bali Bombings." No fatalities.

February 28, 2003. Islamabad, Pakistan. Several gunmen fire upon the U.S. Embassy. Two people are killed.

May 12, 2003. Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Armed al Qaeda terrorists storm the diplomatic compound, killing 36 people including nine Americans. The assailants committed suicide by detonating a truck bomb.

July 30, 2004. Tashkent, Uzbekistan. A suicide bomber from the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan attacks the U.S. Embassy, killing two people.

December 6, 2004. Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Al Qaeda terrorists storm the U.S. Consulate and occupy the perimeter wall. Nine people are killed.

March 2, 2006. Karachi, Pakistan again. Suicide bomber attacks the U.S. Consulate killing four people, including U.S. diplomat David Foy who was directly targeted by the attackers. (I wonder if Lindsey Graham or Fox News would even recognize the name "David Foy." This is the third Karachi terrorist attack in four years on what's considered American soil.)

September 12, 2006. Damascus, Syria. Four armed gunmen shouting "Allahu akbar" storm the U.S. Embassy using grenades, automatic weapons, a car bomb and a truck bomb. Four people are killed, 13 are wounded.

January 12, 2007. Athens, Greece. Members of a Greek terrorist group called the Revolutionary Struggle fire a rocket-propelled grenade at the U.S. Embassy. No fatalities.

March 18, 2008. Sana'a, Yemen. Members of the al-Qaeda-linked Islamic Jihad of Yemen fire a mortar at the U.S. Embassy. The shot misses the embassy, but hits nearby school killing two.

July 9, 2008. Istanbul, Turkey. Four armed terrorists attack the U.S. Consulate. Six people are killed.

Besides, over 50 people died in deadly riots going on all over the world. How come Right wingers ignore that fact. It makes them look like nasty people.

September 17, 2008. Sana'a, Yemen. Terrorists dressed as military officials attack the U.S. Embassy with an arsenal of weapons including RPGs and detonate two car bombs. Sixteen people are killed, including an American student and her husband (they had been married for three weeks when the attack occurred). This is the second attack on this embassy in seven months.

And not ONE AMERICAN CITIZEN!..... When we have embassays and such in these shitholes, one expects attacks, BUT Obuma, and her Thighness, KNEW about the attack and did NOTHING!

Attkisson: Benghazi Narrative Shows Admin Officials 'Were All Reading From the Same Page'

A newly released email obtained by Judicial Watch suggests that the White House was involved in prepping Susan Rice for the media following the Benghazi attack. An email from Ben Rhodes was sent to a dozen members of the Obama administration’s inner circle, including Jay Carney. The subject line read, “Re: PREP Call with Susan: Saturday at 3:00 pm ET,” and the email lists the following two goals: "To underscore that these protests are rooted in an Internet video, and not a broader failure of policy." "To reinforce the President and Administration's strength and steadiness in dealing with difficult challenges."

You're right. Not ONE, no, it was NINE.

How come right wingers ignore the more than 50 people who died from deadly riots going on all over the Arab world at exactly the same time? All caused by that right winger video which got the exact response they hoped it would? It makes them look like such nasty people.

 

[PaintMyHouse]

It makes them look like such nasty people.

They usually are, at least they are in the policies they advocate for if not in their actual lives. It's why they must be fought, constantly.

How come the only time left wingers bring up the deaths of those 50 people is when they try to divert from the failed international policies of the current administration? It makes them look so hypocritical.

 

[edthecynic]

I am soooooooooo tired of this.. NOT one of these incidents had them fight for their life and begged for help for over 7 hours.

Except that never happened.

Maybe the Iraq War that Bush lied us into should be on that list. How many hours did that last?

You mean the WAR that only 13 Subversive Senators didn't sign onto? Or the war where we have video's of BJ Clinton and others in his regime stating Saddam had WMD and we have to have regime change?

"We are now convinced Saddam has no weapons of mass destruction or active programs."

I searched the internet and the only place I found this quote was....here, on US Messageboard.....

Meaning.....you made it up.

 

[BlindBoo]

That's what the man said. The NYT article has a much more detailed timeline too. Then you agree there was no 7 hour raging battle that could be seen from a drone then?

Fact is as soon as the President was notified of the attack he ordered his commanders to use every available DoD asset to protect American lives.

Benghazi attack timeline - CNN.com

2 twenty minute attacks? Read the above link, closely. And the attacks occurred over a 7 hour time period. And they had no way of knowing when they would end or possibly restart. Having the cia compound there as well, you would think they would realize that could also be attacked, which is exactly what happened.

Easy answer, he lied as directed to by the WH.... Just as Carney did with the e-mails, trying the JEDI MIND TRICK!!!....NEXT!

Furthermore as time went on we learned more.

9:42P.M.
Attackers storm through the main gate and set barracks and cars on fire. Mr. Stevens, Mr. Smith and a security officer in the main villa lock themselves in a safe room. Attackers set the main villa’s living room on fire. They bang at the safe room’s door, but do not enter.

Three American armed officers outside the main villa rush to retrieve rifles, radios and bulletproof vests in the security quarters. Two of them try to return to the villa, but find the alley between the two buildings overtaken by attackers. Outnumbered and outgunned, they barricade themselves in the security quarters.

As the main villa is engulfed in smoke, the security officer tries to guide Mr. Stevens and Mr. Smith outside through a window. The officer leaves, but the two men do not follow. The officer re-enters the building multiple times, but is unable to find the two men.

10:05P.M.
A C.I.A. team leaves the Annex in two vehicles, trying and failing to get help from militia members it finds along the way. It takes enemy fire as it approaches the mission.

The Annex team rescues the officer in the monitoring office and joins the search for the two missing Americans. They find Mr. Smith in the main villa, dead from smoke inhalation, but not the ambassador.

Cellphone video posted online shows Mr. Stevens's body being recovered later by a crowd from a window near the villa's entrance.

11:30P.M.
The five security agents originally in the mission leave the compound in an armored vehicle and come under attack. They manage to escape, but are followed to the Annex.

Back at the main villa, Americans are attacked again. The team is unable to find the ambassador and retreats to the Annex carrying Mr. Smith’s body.

Shortly after they reach the Annex, the compound is attacked with gunfire and rocket-propelled grenades, intermittently, for an hour.

1:00A.M.
A seven-person American team from Tripoli arrives in Benghazi on a Libyan cargo jet, but struggles to negotiate an escort out of the airport.

5:00A.M.
The response team arrives at the Annex, accompanied by a convoy of about a dozen Libyan militia trucks.

Minutes later, the Annex is attacked again. Three mortar rounds hit one of the buildings, killing the security officers Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty. Two other officers are also wounded.

Still no 7 hour battle.

Americans were left to Die while waiting for back up to arrive that was NEVER ordered. American's in high positions watched and did Nothing, then lied about it for years. Finally the truth is coming out & all you can do is make jokes ~
Not just republicans but real Americans are Pissed off.
You're a Fucking idiot

And where was this "help" supposed to come from? The real embassy was four hundred miles away.

The CIA Annex personal and Libyan Militia (February 17th) drove the attackers away from the Consulate and rescued everyone but Smith and Stephens.

They were a little late to the party don't you think? I'm betting Stevens did but he knew the reality of the situation since he put himself there.

Meh, the video was an excuse for the Radical Islamists to call for protest against the Great Satan.

Religionist can be very nasty.

It took them 25 minutes to get an organized response ready. I think Stephens felt safe with the security he had with him. I also think there was collusion within the Libyan Militia who were guarding him.

Or in this case not guarding him, obviously. He said it was a very dangerous place, and he was right.

Any death is too much. There is One factor you are ignoring: the death of Amb. Stephens was the first since 1979. It was also the first I know of that was due to security requested being denied.

Stevens didn't request that, a guy at the Embassy did, and no one died there that day. Stevens was no errand-boy. It was his call to be there that day and he made a mistake. Shit happens.

Why are we supposed to believe crazed conspiracy theorist attention whores like Shaffer because he's a lowly retired LtCol who couldn't even make it to full bird?

He's also a 9/11 truther. Are we also supposed to believe his claim that Bush knew about 9/11 beforehand?

Look at just the last 2 years alone. I quit looking for more. And you are right, any death is too much, but what makes them even worse is when it deals with having not had security to even attempt to be able to stop them, when they have begged for just that.

And for you to make light of those responsible for his security's request for more, because it was their job to keep him safe and they were denied, even though the Brit's and the Red Cross had all pulled out due to the volatility there and say "shit happens"? My reply to you is not fit for this forum.

9/11 truther? Not really from all I have read. Is he being truthful here? No idea, but I do know they had a drone over the compound about 30 minutes after the attacks were reported.

 

[deltex1]

Retired Army Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer said Saturday he has sources saying President Barack Obama was in the room at the White House watching the assault on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya unfold. Two unarmed U.S. drones were dispatched to the consulate and recorded the final hours of the attack, which killed U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. “This was in the middle of the business day in Washington, so everybody at the White House, CIA, Pentagon, everybody was watching this go down,” Shaffer said on Fox News’ “Justice with Judge Jeanine.” “According to my...
