Deceitful Obama Administration Lies To America To Save Campaign After Willful Inaction Causes Deaths Of American Patriots

by Dr. Alan Bates, MD

Here are facts with enormous implications for the Obama Administration and the elections regarding the Benghazi attacks gathered from over 120 diplomatic cables (some of which have been reportedly leaked by someone in the State Department) and analyzed by multiple reliable sources including FOX News and Veteran Defenders of America.  Prior to September 11, 2012 there were increasingly frequent requests by CIA and diplomatic staff  in Libya for increased security at  the  U.S. consulate (which had already been attacked twice,  in April and June of this year),  the latest occurring the day of a pre-planned mortar attack by Islamic extremists on both the consulate, and five hours later the CIA annex where two SEALs were killed on the rooftop  while manning a machine gun position. The two SEALs even provided the coordinates of their attackers to a  Special Ops C-130 crew flying nearby but to no avail. 

These events raise questions in two areas.  First,  why were requests for increased security turned down for months and who was responsible?  Second,  those in the White House situation room which included the President’s national security advisor viewed the attacks in real time via two unmanned drones.  During that time urgent help was requested by Ambassador Stevens, soon followed by a request from two (now-deceased) SEALs at the nearby CIA annex that they be allowed to assist the consulate staff.   All requests were denied. Why and by whom?  Hours later, urgent help was requested at least twice by those at the CIA annex when they came under attack—and that was also turned down.  It all lasted seven hours.  Military aid was available within a half hour (F16s within 20 minutes, Apache helicopters within one hr, and a  C-130 gunship flying nearby).  This weekend, according to CIA director Petraeus,  no one in the CIA refused requests to assist the trapped Americans in Benghazi.   The protocol is for such aid to be dispatched when needed per the military or CIA  UNLESS overridden by the Commander-in-Chief.  And that is Obama.  Obama instead went to bed so he could get up the next morning to fly to a fundraiser in Las Vegas while four Americans died without the assistance they had requested. Why did Obama not approve military assistance?   Why did Obama and Hillary Clinton along with others in the Administration lie to the media, Americans and above all,  to the families of the deceased that a video clip produced on the West Coast was responsible for a ‘protest’ in which our men died, when they knew in realtime the reality of a terrorist attack and even the radical militants who claimed responsibility for that attack?  As an aside, why is that video clip producer in jail until after the election and denied access to the press?   Finally, why is the mainstream press trying to ignore these questions?   Collusion!

It is obvious to anyone with cerebral circulation that the Obama Administration had an agenda which supersedes protecting our personnel in the Middle East.  Could his motive to not provide enhanced security in Libya have been to maintain a low profile towards the locals in Libya?   Did Obama deny help to our ambassador and SEALs in order to protect his campaign myth that taking out Osama Bin Laden  extinguished much of the terrorist threat from Al-Qaeda?   What other explanation is there--incompetence? It appears that Obama and his minions propagated a cover up story to protect his political objectives at the expense of American lives and ultimately American trust (if there was any left).   These are not the actions of an honorable patriotic president.   Barack Obama appears to be a heartless coward and a liar who should pack his bags and vacate his office and take his Secretary of State with him.

Anyone who is aware of the many coverups which place Americans and our nation at risk and who would still vote for the narcissist anti-American in the White House either has no honor or has not been paying attention to them---like Fast and Furious; like the hundreds of EPA rules coming out right AFTER the elections which will drive up energy prices to unprecedented levels by slapping more regs on the energy industry which will be passed on to consumers; like ordering defense contractors who will lay off workers to defer such announcements until AFTER the election despite a law which requires at least 60 days notice; like cutbacks in Medicare by 716 billion dollars to fund Obamacare AFTER the elections.  There are many more.

The BOTTOM LINE:  This election differs from any other during my lifetime.  America is at a fork in the road between unrestrained dictatorship and a free republic.  If you choose to continue the destruction of our republic,  vote for  Barack  Obama,  the amateur, dishonest, egocentric Marxist with deep racist views, who openly disrespects American exceptionalism, our Constitutional freedoms with limited government, the rule of law,  and our military service people by imposing political correctness, disarming our troops at inopportune times, and providing classified intelligence to certain American newspapers and our enemies. Obama was elected on an empty promise for undefined ‘hope and change’ by naive uneducated voters, the Left, and those who wanted to elect the first black president without regard for his qualifications.   Our only chance to reverse the destructive course of the past four years is to vote for former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, an experienced, honest, charitable, business-savvy, pro-Constitutional, the non - racist candidate with a successful bipartisan track record, who respects American exceptionalism and the military strength to defend our freedoms. Romney is the only rational choice if America is to see security through true economic recovery, energy independence, fair trade, removal of oppressive regulations which constrain small businesses which provide the majority of jobs, and most importantly, repealing misguided destructive, bankrupting Obamacare.  Your choice is that between preservation of the American dream for our children, or the Left’s transformation of the once strongest, most prosperous country on Earth to a Marxist regime or worse.  Do not take your freedom for granted!

Fort Hood, part of plan...

A More Likely Scenario

from The Betrayal by Lynn Dartez

The shooting on November 5th at Fort Hood Army post in Texas may be indicative of similar attacks to come. The shooter carried out an attack on specifically outbound soldiers for deployment at the Soldier Readiness Center. Maj. Malik Nadal Hasan was raised as a Muslim and was opposed to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. The fact that he chose to kill or maim over 40 U.S. soldiers rather than go to war against Muslim jihadists is indicative of another motive. Explaining away this massacre as a conflict of conscience seems to be an oxymoron. Looking past the incident as a singular event you’ll find a very different, possible reason for the attack.

According to a November 4th Stratfor report, al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) leader, Nasir al-Wahayshi, wrote an article last week in an online magazine, Sada al-Malahim (The Echo of the Battle). In it he called for jihadists to conduct easy attacks on targets in Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Yemen, as well as in Western Nations “at war with Islam”. They were to use easily accessible weapons and explosives and to not “waste a lot of time finding the materials…” The way in which this information was disseminated is just as telling as the article itself. According to the global intelligence source, Stratfor:

That al-Wahayshi gave these instructions in an internet magazine distributed via jihadist chat rooms, not in some secret meeting with his operational staff, demonstrates that they are clearly intended to reach grassroots jihadists — and are not intended as some guidance for AQAP members.

In another Stratfor report from June of 2006 called, “Al Qaeda: The Next Phase of Evolution” it was suggested that the rise of local, unaffiliated terror cells are becoming the most effective form of guerilla warfare. Al Qaeda is morphing into something similar to a “pre-9/11 Operation Model”. It relies on grassroots elements that “think globally and act locally”. Stratfor calls this the “4.0 Operation Model” in which it can:

…Entail more sophisticated levels of coordination — and the possibility of simultaneous strikes against geographically diverse targets (for instance London, Toronto and New York). Previously, such a feat could only have been accomplished by the core al Qaeda organization. For a grassroots network to accomplish that feat, without direct involvement from the central leadership, would represent a generational leap forward in jihadist operations.

Terror cells aren’t the only form of recent jihadist activity and roadside IEDs aren’t the only form of explosives for these new attacks. In Nasir al-Wahayshi’s article last week, he cited an incident a few weeks ago where an assassin wore a small IED in his anal cavity in an attack on Saudi Deputy Interior Minister Prince Mohammed bin Nayef. This was a new, unsuspected form of suicide bombing. It was unsuccessful in killing the target, only slightly injuring him; but this method proved to be effective against detection.

Also in the article, al-Wahayshi mentioned a specific amount of explosives that could be made from household items, suggesting similar IEDs could be improvised. Grassroots jihadists may also be interpreting attacks to be suicide bombings on individual targets as well as in geographical locations.

Whether Maj. Malik Nadal Hasan acted out of insanity or some bizarre moral dilemma, he conducted an attack on U.S. soil of a terrorist nature. Americans need to become more vigilant since we are more vulnerable to attack from jihadists now than ever.

Terror cells will be even harder to prevent as new grassroots jihadists do not need to communicate directly with a central authority. They now get their information from websites and take cues to from leadership messages published on them. There will be less chatter to monitor because these groups will find each other locally and keep their operations small and low-key.

Now is the time for our current government to become pro-active in thwarting terrorist plots. Being reactionary just won’t cut it anymore. The fact that the Obama Administration renamed the “War on Terror” to the “Overseas Contingency Plan” highlights just how off base they are on the threat our country now faces.

Our intelligence agencies also need to be allowed to do their job without fear of persecution. Nancy Pelosi’s shameful display of classic CYA against the CIA doesn’t give the FBI much incentive to help conduct domestic surveillance on these new groups.

My prediction on the matter is that the issue will be resolved only as “a U.S. soldier carried out the Fort Hood attack” and let the assumptions about a violent soldier fall where they may. For this Administration and their cronies, it’s a lot more convenient than fulfilling one of the only stated responsibilities of our federal government.
