The special Accountability Review Board that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appointed to investigate the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, says that a local militia the State Department hired to protect that mission was refusing to protect the movement of State Department vehicles in Benghazi on Sept. 11 in order to protest its wages and working hours.
Two Americans--Amb. Chris Stevens and State Department Information Management Officer Sean Smith--were killed at the Benghazi mission that day; and two more Americans--former Navy Seals Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty--were killed at a nearby CIA Annex.
“In the weeks and months leading up to the attacks, the response from post, Embassy Tripoli, and Washington to a deteriorating security situation was inadequate,” says the report, which was released on Tuesday. “At the same time, the SMC’s [Special Mission compound’s] dependence on the armed but poorly skilled Libyan February 17 Martyrs’ Brigade (February 17) militia members and unarmed, locally contracted Blue Mountain Libya (BML) guards for security support was misplaced."

This is flat out lack of leadership by the State Dept. And Clinton could not testify because she bumped her head. That also reflects on Obama's leadership for placing an incompendent woman in charge. This whole issue is a wake up call for the leadership of America.
ReplyDeleteTypical "union mentality". Same union results. Everyone involved with this from Obama on down need to lose their jobs. Everyone!
ReplyDeleteThe hearings were CLASSIFIED! You know why? Because it wasn't an "embassy", or an "annex". It was just a house. A house being used as a cover for a gun-running operation managed by the CIA and covered by the State department. Where "terrorists" were being held and interrogated. Why, oh why, do YOU think the CIA was SO close and Navy Seals responded so quickly? If the US Embassy in Britain was attacked, do you think the hearings would be classified? "It was a protest over a film (a lie). Two months after the attack, "we still don't know what happened" (another lie). "We didn't know the security danger (a lie)". ALL deliberate LIES. WHY?? Now, hillary has "bumped her head" and can't testify???????... How much BS will our "leaders" try to hand us? I guess as long as we shuffle along and mutter "yassa massa" at everything they say, the BS will flow like the Mississippi.
