BOSTON AND BENGHAZI FACTS!

BOSTON

My prayers go out to those innocent people who were killed, maimed and injured in the senseless bombing incidents in Boston yesterday.

Watching the press conference this morning from Boston and the 100% coverage provided by every media outlet on Earth was a perfect example of how our government manages what we see and read. Let me share some facts.

We had the Governor of Massachusetts, Mayor of Boston and the impassioned announcement from Senator Elizabeth Warren repeatedly making sure every voter knew that President Obama would solve this obvious terrorist bombing in a warp speed time frame. Whoops, no one called this a terrorist bombing, but I did.

Next we had the FBI, ATF, and every law enforcement agency in the State capture camera time to defer every significant question asked as no comment or “This is an ongoing investigation and we won’t answer it now.” I am certain that we will get to see this same scenario all day long.

Can you imagine how many would have died if the bombs were used at an indoor sporting event or if we had the suicide bombers that plague our ally Israel and the Middle East?

If our Government and the news media ever decide to put the future of The United States ahead of getting elected or appointed to life time positions, sanity could prevail. When the people get enough of our rotten government, they will again control our country.  

BENGHAZI

My prayers continue for the families of the brave Americans that were politically sacrificed in the brutal attack in Benghazi on September 11, 1012. This was the saddest day of my life watching the controlled media coverage and the cover up of the cause that continues today. Politically the loss of Americans lives in Libya do not mean as much as the loss of Americans in Boston. WHY?

Why do we still have no answers on what delayed an investigative FBI team from arriving at the Benghazi site for 24 days. Twenty four days to manipulate the facts.

Someday the media will report the truth that the U.S. mission in Benghazi and nearby CIA annex attacked last September as an intelligence and planning center for U.S. aid to the rebels in the Middle East, particularly those fighting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s regime. This is the reason for the cover-up that hides the fact that aid included weapons shipments and was being coordinated with Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. stated in an interview with Fox News that murdered U.S Ambassador Christopher Stevens was in Benghazi to keep weapons caches from falling into the hands of terrorists. Until that point, no official explanation for Steven’s deployment to Libya has acknowledged any such activity.

A key decisions by the State Department that every American should question was the reason why we did not deploy an interagency rapid response unit designed to respond to terrorist attacks known as a Foreign Emergency Support Team, or FEST.

FEST teams were deployed immediately after al-Qaida bombings of U.S. embassies in East Africa in 1998 and the USS Cole in 2000. But they were not used for Benghazi, confounding insiders speaking to the news media.

Counterterrorism officials reported on Fox News in November that the FEST teams could have helped the FBI gain access to the site in Benghazi faster than 24 days. Reportedly the site also contained a large volume of classified documents.

Why was our Counterterrorism Security Group, CSG, never asked to meet the night of the attack or in subsequent days? The CSG is composed of experts on terrorism from across government agencies and makes recommendations to the deputies who assist the president’s Cabinet in formulating a response to crises involving terrorism.

I remember that in the 2008 democratic primary, Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama were asked about who should handle the 3 a.m. call from overseas that only a president gets.

As fate would have it, such a call was received last Sept. 11 from Benghazi, and it appears that neither Obama nor Clinton answered the phone. The result was our Ambassador and brave security individuals were sacrificed to cover up illegal facts. Why did four Americans in an embassy die for political reasons?

To make matters worse the Republican leadership has not tried very hard to keep this cover-up on TV, in newspapers, and open to public awareness.

All politicians in America today have made sure they are ten feet tall and bulletproof. They are immune to getting fired, they do not have to obey all laws and they never have to pay penalties. They appear proud of the government’s ineffectiveness.

Who cares that Americans died silently in Benghazi without help, while our government sacrificed them for political reasons? Do you care? Well, I do!
