BENGHAZIGATE: OBAMA ADMIN KNEW LIBYAN TERRORISTS HAD US-PROVIDED WEAPONS

In a story that’s been largely buried by the media for years upon years – and was doubly buried in the aftermath of the Benghazi terrorist attack on September 11 resulting in the death of four Americans – the New York Times is now reporting that US-approved arms that were supposed to go to Libya rebels went to Islamist terrorists.

U.S. has been giving other countries weapons for years, why is everyone surprised by this?
If we looked out of our own and allowed other countries to do the same, we may not be the financial ruin we are today.

Duh.
Of course they had American weapons. What other weapons would the CIA arm them with?
