As we begin to piece the new information, new reporting and discovered research in Benghazi against the backdrop of the “Official State Department Reports”, it is prudent to go back and rewatch the actual journalistic discoveries on scene right after the attack.

This is a very well organized, informative and well presented in depth report on the Benghazi attack in Libya.
WASHINGTON (AP) – The CIA station chief in Libya reported to Washington within 24 hours of last month’s deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate that there was evidence it was carried out by militants, not a spontaneous mob upset about an American-made video ridiculing Islam’s Prophet Muhammad, U.S. officials have told The Associated Press.
It is unclear who, if anyone, saw the cable outside the CIA at that point and how high up in the agency the information went. The Obama administration maintained publicly for a week that the attack on the diplomatic mission in Benghazi that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans was a result of the mobs that staged less-deadly protests across the Muslim world around the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks on the U.S. (more…)
Many people jumped on this comment snippet as soon as it was tweeted by the media. I sensed something was off with the media lead on the comment itself, so I witheld opinion until I could see and hear the context. Having said that the term “optimal” was placed into the conversation by Jon Stewart.
However, Jon Stewart was talking about the poor presidential response, and the confusing explanations from the White House, Spokesperson(s), the larger administration per se’, and the President himself. In essence the “confused messaging” was not optimal.
If President Obama was responding to the poor “messaging” descriptive then any outrage would have been seriously misplaced, because we all agree the confusing messaging was far from optimal. Heck, it was absurdly ridiculous.
BUT…
…. When President Obama responded to Jon Stewart Obama was not talking about the “messaging”, he was talking about the “event”.
So therefore EVERY CINTILLA OF BACKLASH for this horrifically worded response is ABSOLUTELY APPROPRIATELY PLACED. (more…)
This is a follow-up to our previous outlining of intentional media manipulation during the last Presidential Debate – Specifically with CNN and the Obama Campaign. Their coordination is beyond refute at this point. Backstory Here and History Here.
Previously I shared: Occam’s Razor – Ladka is a NY Dem minded ideologue. However, if he was “registered as a Democrat” the Alinskyites would have chosen a different front man. Bottom Line Ladka aligns himself ideologically with Dear Leader. Hence, his “handlers”, while known or unknown, will carefully guide him into the spotlight…..
Water follows the path of least resistance. So does ideology. This Kerry Ladka guy is beyond a doubt a David Plouffe coordinated OFA strategic manuever. Just watch…..
Many readers and commentators posted discussion about the Libyan questioner “Kerry Lakda” and the ideology behind the approach. Initial research into Ladka is available HERE.
As the days advance, the cloud covering intentions are removed. Today is no exception.
Why would random undecided voter, Mr. Kerry Ladka, of Long Island NY, be calling media outlets, media pundits, and requesting to be on their shows? (more…)
We noticed this Update over at TheUlstermanReport from WH Insider. I think he has the name misspelled, but the right guy the Obama Admin is targeting. We have outlined before and are familiar with a Benghazi terrorist named “Ahmed Boukhatala“. First their tip:
(Via Update from White House Insider) Have a heads up for you. This comes directly from the Old Man. Military intelligence may have tracked location of a guy called “Khattalah” who apparently organized the Benghazi attack. Check media reports for name. Obama to order drone strikes or possible all out bombing operation. Says it appears imminent. Obama will then make claim “perpetrators brought to justice” to squash Benghazi questions and play part of hero. “Bin Laden Version 2 “ If accurate, this scenario would fit with the earlier rescue operation scenario you had sent me earlier. That went to sh-t so now they are recalibrating the same general idea with an updated version of it.
I have not heard anything resembling something this specific. Doing double time trying to confirm. Nobody in Romney camp aware of this. Or if they are, not tipping their hand. (more…)
For some unknown reason President Obama continues to say one thing to the face of the public, and quite another privately, or behind closed doors. Makes you wonder what the character of a person is when they are unwilling, or constitutionally unable, to tell you openly what answers are to serious issues that affect our nation. This lack of honesty and integrity in public behavior infers ulterior “intention”…. (Flashback-Medvedev)
For the record, I am not comfortable with this ideological skillset in a United States President….. and yes, I am able to see through this “media transparency” from the Washington Post, and I know exactly what their deflective intentions are:
(Washington Post) Kerry Ladka stood before President Obama at last night’s town hall-style debate and asked the question that would touch off an onstage verbal brawl and, later, an intense national discussion. […]
President Obama, though, wasn’t done with Kerry Ladka. “After the debate, the president came over to me and spent about two minutes with me privately,” says the 61-year-old Ladka, who works at Global Telecom Supply in Mineola, N.Y. According to Ladka, Obama gave him ”more information about why he delayed calling the attack a terorist attack.” (more…)
Prog People still question the descriptive word “Savages” used to describe Islamists. Not I…. But sadly it makes one wonder what horrific end was ultimately the demise of Ambassador Chris Stevens.
Libya – Colonel Muammar Gaddafi died after being stabbed with a bayonet in the anus and not in a firefight as originally claimed by Libyan authorities, according to a report on the Libyan dictator’s last hours.
New York-based Human Rights Watch said Gaddafi was already bleeding from head wounds caused by blast shrapnel as he tried to flee Sirte, his hometown.
The charity obtained unedited mobile footage that showed militia fighters abusing Gaddafi as they took him into custody in October 2011. (more…)
In the history books of wool-over-sheeple-eye-removal this might, just might, go down as one of the most obvious and over-the-top Machiavellian media manuevers ever.
Watching it unfold on live TV it did not seem right. It was awkwardly and comfortably scripted, and too smooth in execution. But watching it on replay the agenda filled manipulation was obvious. It appears Candy Crowley and CNN together with the Obama Administration scripted the Libyan injection into the Presidential Debate.
I’m not just talking about Candy Crowley interjecting on behalf of President Obama, and interrupting Mitt Romney, I mean the whole segment seemed like it was a set up.
So we did a little research:
Candy Crowley told Erin Burnett on CNN’s show Out Front, Monday Night 10/15, that she had collected the questions from the invited and vetted debate audience at Hofstra University and was reviewing them. This was Monday on the 7pm broadcast of Erin Burnett. The Debate was Tuesday.
When the question on Libya was asked by audience member Kerry Ladka, he prefaced the question by saying:
….this question actually comes from my, err, um, a brain trust of my friends at Global Telecom Supply in Mineola, yesterday we were sitting around talking about Libya…
If Candy Crowley already had the audience questions assembled the day before, how could Kerry Ladka and his brain trust friends have been writing one? (more…)
Lying as a profession must be exhausting….. Trying to test the water temp on the media pool Cabinet Member, Ambassador Susan Rice, pokes head out. Briefly. Yet, doubles down on stupid.
WASHINGTON DC – U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice, in her first public comments on Libya since her controversial account days after the attack, blamed intelligence community talking points for the faulty narrative.
The light-on-details explanation Monday came as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took responsibility for any security failures leading up to the consulate attack last month.
But with the accounts coming as both presidential candidates head into a debate Tuesday night that will focus in part on foreign policy, neither appeared to settle mounting questions on the Hill about how the administration got the story so wrong. (more…)
