Benghazi ambassadorial staff: Obama determined they were expendable
By Sher Zieve
It was reported and revealed this morning on Fox News' Happening Now Breaking news that the CIA in Benghazi, Libya had at least twice on 11 September 2012 requested from their superiors in the US help for the consulate's employees. The CIA employees told the Obama official — who was likely already viewing the attacks live from the safety of his or her own offices — that Ambassador Stevens, his staff and 2 security people were in jeopardy of being killed by the ongoing Islamists' assault.
The first time the Obama official was contacted for assistance, CIA Benghazi was told "No. Stand down!" 1-2 hours later, CIA Benghazi again contacted the Obama official again and begged for help they were again told to "stand down" and advised that no help would be forthcoming. The assault went on for 7 long — and torturous for those having to endure it — hours, during which time the CIA on the ground in Libya made several more calls for help. All of their requests for the lives of the Ambassadorial staff were refused. To make matters worse — if that's even possible — the CIA employees on-site were told via the "stand down" order that they were not to help them, in any way whatsoever, either.
Ambassador Stevens and his staff were allowed — if not meant — to die. Obama is to blame. Any decision of the magnitude of this one — allowing the deaths of US citizens by apparent design and planning — would have to be authorized by the Commander-in-Chief. I have heard for the last 1-2 weeks and have reported on Radio two stories that may explain the reason for Obama's belief that they had to die. First, there is the story — reported on 14 October by the NY Times — hat Stevens was assisting Obama on the supply of arms to Islamists in Syria. Second, there is the story that Obama planned to have Stevens "kidnapped" (so that Obama would step in as the "hero" and save him) but, the plan went awry.
Due to the upcoming elections, Obama could not be implicated in any additional scandal. But he was. And he now is.
Whatever the truth of this, there is an undeniable fact. Obama is responsible for the deaths of at least 4 US citizens in Benghazi. He is directly responsible. This is the highest form of "High crimes and misdemeanors," as given in the definition of treason. Obama is guilty of it and is still being protected by a thoroughly corrupt media and many members of Congress. He belongs in prison...not our White House.
What are We-the-People going to do about it? What???
