BREAKING: Obama Preparing Military Strike Against Benghazi Terrorists

The Associated Press is now reporting that the Obama administration has given the order to prepare for strikes against terrorist forces in Libya.  The timing of this announcement is very suspicious given the potential political implications.  A true Wag the Dog moment – and perhaps something even more sinister as to what the true intended use of now dead Ambassador Chris Stevens was to be for the Obama White House.  Dead lips tell no truths…

EXCERPT:

The Associated Press reports:

Administration officials say the White House has put special operations strike forces on standby and moved drones into the skies above Africa, ready to hit militant targets from Libya to Mali, if U.S. investigators can find the al-Qaida-linked group responsible for the death of the U.S. ambassador in Libya.

…Details were provided by three current and one former administration official, as well as an analyst who was approached by the White House for help. All four spoke only on condition of anonymity.   LINK

    • Must have some loose ends to take care of…like evidence or witnesses?? Hope the the CIA and the FBI are out of there when the drones attack. Obama’s turning into quite the tinpot despot, isn’t he???

    • Obeline
    • This smells like it’s not going to end well.

      Along with the prediction of race riots when Romney wins the election.

      Well, we were warned.

    • truthandjustice
    • Agree, SLAMO – I guess they’ve chosen this scenario now since the other one didn’t go according to plan — plus it conveniently may take care of any “harmful” people , “evidence” of any of those nasty weapons/missiles, whatever we gave to our enemies in Egypt or wherever. Who knows.
      And/or maybe this was already planned in addition after the ambassador was “rescued” somehow?
      Don’t tell demonic Pres. Jarrett – but I don’t think it will work either. Don’t think people will change their votes from Romney and will undoubtedly see through this. Hope the poor maniacal woman doesn’t get too upset….may cause her to have a heart attack…or something…….
      We must all press for the truth to come out about this fiasco !!

    • The scheming never stops, for as it has been said, this administration will stop at absolutely nothing to stay in power and it shows with each new diversion and lie told.

      It boggles the mind to actually see no calls for impeachment, no arrests, no outrage, no screams for justice and most importantly NO action on the part of congress to stop the madness. What are they afraid of? There career being tarnished? The flow of money lining the pockets coming to an end? No getting re-elected? Deep dark secrets being revealed? Congress is suppose to be the first line of defense against tyranny coming from the executive branch.

      I hope everybody can see that everything being done is just more smoke and mirrors, a mirage, a diversion from what is most important right now, which is defeating the Monster and his minions occupying the peoples White House.

      It is also great to see Governor Romney is not going appear on The View. I hope if Governor Romney becomes President of the United States, he never goes on any late night shows or other shows like The View or SNL, for appearing on those types of shows is beneath the office of the President of the United States. We need to see grace and dignity restored to the White House.

    • Little late, ya think? Kinda like closing the barn door AFTER the horses have escaped. What a fool of a paper president we are stuck with for the next few weeks

    • VTX
    • G0D help the SEALs; Obama has tried to kill them off, particularly the team that disobeyed his intention to bring UBL back alive; this could be an assassination mission: to get our guys killed.

      Why else would three current administration officials and one former official telegraph such ntentions? Three possibilities:

      - One, to protect Obama in the debate.
      - Two, to alert the enemy so that payback can be obtained – by them and BHO. -
      - Three, to prevent the operation from occuring at all, until later.

      Only the third possibility suggests that this leak isn’t a form of treason.

    • truthandjustice
    • Haven’t heard this on Fox or anywhere except Huffington Post. After thinking about it, we know that AP and HP are both PR arms for Obama’s regime —- and when you read this it says they are just thinking about it, under certain conditions, etc. Much more complex than you would think. Even if they do, don’t see how that hurts Romney as it doesn’t change all the facts we know about their lies, incompetence, etc. We shall see……….

    • Queechy
    • Breaking now on CNBC Larry Kudlow broadcast, Hillary Clinton takes responsibility for Benghazi embassy attack. Who threatened Bill’s life now?

      • VTX
      • She was in a box canyon; easiest way out is to surrender.

        This doesn’t diminish the relevant questions, though, since she wasn’t the author of the “it was the movie” lie. Rice claimed it was someone in Intelligence, not in the State Department.

        This may be Hillary’s exit by way of resignation, too?

        • Perceptible Future
        • Sounds to me like Director James Clapper might be getting ready to be “Thrown under the Bus”. He seems malleable enough to accept the West Wing’s conditions for exiting his office as collateral damage. I do not believe he has it in him to expose the W/H.

          Now, on the other hand, Hillary can be a vindictive bit*h and once the blood-letting begins my money’s on Hillary to thrust-in deeply for maximum effect. Jarret won’t even feel it coming…

      Whose nuts did the Obama admin squeeze?

      08:21 PM ET
      Clinton: ‘I take responsibility’ for Benghazi

      From Elise Labott, reporting from Lima, Peru on CNN’s OutFront

      Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the bucks stops with her when it comes to who is blame for a deadly assault on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi.

      “I take responsibility” for what happened on September 11, Clinton said in an interview with CNN’s Elise Labott soon after arriving in Lima, Peru for a visit. The interview, one of a series given to U.S. television networks Monday night, were the first she has given about the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi.

      Clinton insisted President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden are not involved in security decisions, Clinton said.

      “I want to avoid some kind of political gotcha,” she added, noting that it is close to the election.

      The attack killed Chris Stevens, the U.S. ambassador to Libya, and three other Americans at the consulate.

      The Obama administration has been heavily criticized after Vice President Joe Biden said during last week’s vice presidential debate that the White House did not know of requests to enhance security at Benghazi, contradicting testimony by State Department employees that requests had been made and rejected. Following the debate, the White House said the vice president did not know of the requests because they were handled, as is the practice, by the State Department.

      Clinton also sought to downplay the criticism that administration officials continued to say the attack was a spontaneous product of a protest over an anti-Muslim film, a theory that has since been discarded.

      In the wake of an attack, there is always “confusion,” Clinton said. But the information has since changed, Clinton said in the interview.

      The secretary of state also described the desperate scene in the State Department during the hours of the attack on the night of September 10. It was an “intense, long ordeal” as staff tried to find out what had happened.

      Clinton said her mission now is to make sure such an attack will never happen again – but also that diplomacy, even in dangerous areas like Benghazi, is not stopped.

      “We can’t not engage,” she said. “We cannot retreat.”

      • truthandjustice
      • Yes, that’s what I noticed when I read the whole thing. Lots of “qualifiers”.
        Get the impression they just wanted this to get out in the media, period (not intending on following through)?? Maybe later in order to help them somehow. ? We know they won’t do it to help US.
        Then to help him in the debate & re-election, with Hillary taking full responsibility, he can blame everything on her….or try to when actually the buck stops w/him as Pres., according to Don Rumsfield on Hannity. I hope Romney handles that well.

    • Vyxen
    • Let’s take the next step: Obama retaliates in Libya. He kills the wrong people, which activates terrorist cells in the U.S. There are attacks.

      Election: postponed.

      If Obama is a hero: election scheduled.

      /yes, I know this sounds insane. But he is desperate.

    • west1890
    • I’d guess Hillary is falling on her sword to “save” Obama because she has been promised he’ll win the election and that she will be the nominee in 2016. I have news for her- it’s NOT going to work out that way-no matter what they are promising her. I noticed she was careful enough not to say that Obama and Biden didn’t know about the security issue, just that ultimately she is “responsible”. She obviously learned a lot from Slick Willy about semantics.

      • Publius
      • I would not be so quick to describe her words as capitulation by Hillary. Clinton words uttered on the political stage are chosen very carefully.

        By saying the buck stops with her she draws an immediate unflattering contrast with the gutless wonder in the WH. He’s had a month to step up and be a man, and he has instead voted present yet again, while hiding behind Susan Rice. I think the Clintons see the WH apparatus starting to deflect blame onto her State Dept., and they may be getting ready to counter-punch.

        By applying Harry Truman’s words to herself, Hillary is reminding the American people of that 3 AM phone call, and how much more competent a president ahe would have been. I, for one, can’t wait to see and hear what Bill does next.

    • charlotte
    • So now Hillary just let POTUS hide behind her skirts. NICE, I would be ashamed. Seems there is no shame in the WH. WHAT DO THEY HAVE ON HER AND BILL or did they threaten to kill Chelsea again? Why doesn’t she go public and spill the beans about Obama? America will forgive her if she does that(but they won’t elect her again).

      • Jules
      • POTUS and VaLJAROTUS may think they’re being hidden, but as WHI said, “I got little to no sympathy for Hillary. But I am watching Bill’s reaction to this. Real close. So far it’s been very quiet and if I was Obama and Jarrett, that would make me very very nervous…

        and

        “Possible rift now between her and Leon Panetta? If so, dangerous for her to roll that dice unless it has been agreed beforehand some poor no namer is going to be given up as the sacrificial lamb in this current blame game scenario. Actually, it’s dangerous regardless, because if she is crossing Panetta in any way, she won’t win unless Bill does a full on intervention and I don’t know if he wants to go there. Don’t ever underestimate Leon Panetta. He is powerful in a way that only comes from information. And information he’s got. On a whole lot of them and us.)”

        So, Bill has advised his dear, dear wife to do this as a kind of plea bargain if you will. Barry inhaled – a lot. Bill said he never did.

    • Ace
    • Wow!
      Hillary Clinton just castrated “Obama”.
      She looks presidential…he looks like a kid in a playground fight who shoved a girl in front of him and ran away!!!
      What a p*ssy!

    • InTheKnow
    • I agree with what Publius said above — Hillary Clinton is standing up and taking responsibility for what happened. By doing so, she takes the short-term hit but could be politically recovered for 2016.

      Obama, on the other hand, looks like a no-accountability boss who is blaming his secretary.

      If you think that the Biden debate debacle worked poorly with women, wait until they get a load of Hillary Clinton taking the sword for Obama. Say bye bye to your white female voters, President Obama. Let’s not forget that Hillary has a strong cult following of her own among Democrats, and that she is the most popular of all Democratic Party politicians.

      I believe this to be a masterstroke by her and Bill. If they are going to be blamed for this failure, then they are going to take control of the situation and limit the damage to themselves, all while casting Obama in a contrasting bad light. I think this could really help Romney, and I’m not sure Obama and his team are smart enough to understand that. But they may find out soon enough.

      If I were the Benghazi suspects, I would want to still be in jail. You think this is coincidence they were just released and now the Administration is talking about possible strikes against the perpetrators in Libya? Yeah, right.

    • InTheKnow
    • As regards the Lame Cherry scenario of the possible Libya double-cross.

      Lame Cherry is a very smart man who has worked for years, if not decades, to learn what he knows. I don’t agree with everything he says, or that he thinks, but he is capable of seeing the entire chessboard, so to speak, in a way that few other laymen can. He can see angles many people can’t see. And, his deductive powers and ability to synthesize disparate pieces of information are extremely powerful and well-honed.

      Many will recall the recent “It’s going hot” column by Doug Hagmann

      http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/49107

      In that piece (written about two weeks before 9-11-12), Hagmann’s DHS Insider told him that Homeland Security, I think, said that whatever scenario they were supposedly going to gin up or participate in was about to go live. Libya happened two weeks later.

      Fairly coincidental, wouldn’t you say?

      Could someone, like Lame Cherry’s “Bill Casey Associates,” have been involved in this, as the supposed double-crossers who spoiled Obama’s October Surprise. Certainly. As WHI mentioned in his last message, people who want to push Obama over the proverbial tipping point are looking for ways to help do so now. People, perhaps, like Jim Lehrer and possibly the Bill Casey Associates. This is how it works. Brutus doesn’t stab Caesar in November. He waits until the time is right, waits until the Ides Of March.

      If people are going to conspire to stop Obama from achieving a second term, then now would be the time to spring their plans. Or, time to block Obama’s possible staged events from helping him vault up in the polls. So, do I think a Libyan staged event may have planned and then someone like the “Bill Casey Associates” stepped in to ruin it? Sure, as WHI said, anything is possible with the current group in Washington, I think. And, it would coincide with the “It’s going hot” information from DHS Insider, I think.

      There are still several moves left on the chessboard at this time. Two debates, a possible strikeback in Libya to try to make Obama look the vengeful hero before the election. Try to rekindle the Osama magic. And, the Osama movie that National Geographic is to air two days before the election.

      There are other moves still out there as well. I hope that WSI, WHI and their associates have a few more tricks in their bag. As WHI said, if Mitt can do well tomorrow, then we are one step closer to saving this nation from ruin. But it’s not over yet. Like a bad movie monster, the Obama campaign isn’t going to go away easily.

      Whatever Obama is going to try to do in Libya needs to be countered, if possible. That may not be possible, but contingency plans need to be made. We’ll recall how the Obama team’s decision to possibly recruit a third party candidate caught WSI, WHI and their associates off guard, as WHI admitted. I am quite sure that these intelligent group of people knew that Obama would try to play this Libya “strikeback” game, and have been preparing for that eventuality. Hopefully, such plans can succeed.

      I am honestly not sure if Obama wants to be reelected. Jarrett wants to win, that I am sure of. But I am not sure if Obama feels the same way. He hates the job, that seems clear. And, as WHI pointed out here, he has bigger plans. Kevin DuJan said this the other day, and I agree with him and what WHI said here — those bigger plans involve the United Nations. Specifically, in my mind, as Secretary General of the United Nations. Why rule the United States when you can rule the whole world? This is why I think Obama rose so far so fast. He always had his mind on that ‘higher office,’ and he wants to be young enough to enjoy his power.

      Now, for people who don’t know the ins-and-outs of NWO, Communist and globalist workings and intrigue, I want to point something out. The United Nations is the absolute pinnacle of power and prestige for someone of Obama’s leanings and background. Being President is just a stepping stone to getting more power in the UN to these people. And, sad to say, that isn’t necessarily a false concept of how things work.

      Military Insider mentioned in his one interview about how, I think it was (someone can get a link if they could; I don’t want to put multiple links here so Ulsterman’s filter thinks I’m spamming), the UN Agenda 21 plan was real. And it is real, very real. So the idea that the UN could be running not one, but many, supposedly sovereign nations is quite real and possible.

      To that end, I think that those who helped install Obama as the US President (those who don’t now regret that decision) put him into place to help pave the wave for more UN/Globalist/NWO control of the US by way of weakening the US in various ways. By weakening our laws (hence, Fast & Furious), by weakening our economy and by altering our laws so that they could have more control (such as the attempt with the Law Of The Seas treaty).

      Many of these gambits failed. What did not fail, however, was Obama’s constant executive orders that are basically king’s fiats. Nearly 1,000 of them. And they are setting us up, or leading us down the path to be set up, for more external control by the UN and other, similar agencies.

      WHI mentioned this one time. I think it was WHI, it could have been WSI. What WHI said then was that, in talks with GOP operatives in Washington DC, it was basically agreed upon that even if the GOP won the Senate in 2012 they would not be able to stop Obama from destroying the country’s future, because of his ability to enact executive orders.

      Now, many of us think little of Obama’s intellect or even ability to execute his responsibilities day to day. However, understand this about Communists, Marxists and NWO types — they are usually extremely militant and dedicated to their goals. Think of the Weathermen, or the original Bolsheviks. How does this relate to Obama, possibly?

      Here’s how: If Obama is setting up the US to be more subject to the whims and commands of the UN, then guess who might be able to later-on use that power to bring the US to heel in an ultimate ‘screw you’ move to the USA?

      UN Secretary General Barack Obama.

      Do you see it now?

      As WHI said, these people have larger plans here. Much larger. And, to tell you the truth, I’m not sure Obama wants to stay in the ‘confines’ of the White House any longer. He may want to get to that Hawaii mansion sooner rather than later. Hit the beach, prep for the UN World Tour and his candidacy to gain the Secretary General position at the UN.

      As much as Obama fails upward, his ego knows no bounds. He thinks of himself as Napoleon, or the Anti-Reagan. He really seems to believe this, that he has some kind of ‘master destiny’ to achieve these things.

      So, I am not sure Obama wants to win this election. Maybe he does, maybe he doesn’t. Jarrett wants to win. But do Michelle and Barack share her wish?

      Anyways, as WHI said, the threat of post-election riots is being floated on purpose, in my opinion. Not because there is going to be any kind of spontaneous rioting, but because Obama wants to be the ‘great healer,’ as WHI says. This means, to me, that we will get staged, bogus riots in the mold of staged, bogus Occupy Wall Street ‘protests.’ Fake events that are meant only to help Obama look grand when he ‘halts’ them.

      Don’t be worried about them. Or the threat of them. Like the Occupy farce, expect such staged events to only happen in blue states and in blue cities. LA. NYC. Philly. Bay Area, California. You’re not going to see ‘spontaneous riots’ in Iowa or Utah. Just places where Dems run the show so none of the ‘rioters’ have to face the consequences of their actions. If you live in one of those places, then you may want to take a vacation after Election Day. But I doubt these things will last long, if they even get started.

      Obama will become nearly powerless after he loses the election. I think he knows that, which is why the riots are likely to be staged in the first place, to give him some illusion of power as ‘only he’ can heal the racial division. Because if and when he loses in 3 weeks, the rats won’t be leaving the sinking ship, they will be rocketing off of it. Just wait. The ‘riot healing’ is to help Obama try to retain an image of power and importance as this loss of power becomes clear.

      We’re winning. 3 more weeks. Only a few more moves left on the chessboard. Stay strong, keep working, fight like we’re down 10 points, even if we’re really up a few.

      To paraphrase John Lennon: Nightmare is over, if you want it.

      Let’s win this thing.

        • InTheKnow
        • Thanks, Shain.

          I can’t find the article where WHI talks about how there is a feeling that Obama could do what he wanted to do via Executive Order if he won a second term, with or without Congress.

          But, you’re right — EO’s can be rescinded. So, hopefully, that can and will be done under President Romney.

          I think the key is to make sure Obama is one and done. Then, what needs to be done can get done. Or at least some of it, anyways. We can’t take back, at least not quickly, all the crazy spending of this administration.

    • VTX
    • Couple of things:

      - Obama cant even return phone calls. Looks more like he wants to retire. Bill Clinton had his eye on the UN, it was said – so Barry would have to compete with him for that. Bill is a much tougher competitor, a tough mother. Obama knows he wont get those adoring crowds back; he’ll be content to sit back and believe his own delusions that he was the fourth best president, just as his wife delusionally stated that we are having a helluva recovery. Shows she’s just as delusional as he is. And he can get back to the Down Low after it’s all over, with his own personal steam room and lots of Hawaiian boys to play with. Like father like son.

      - Agree completely about the riots; if anything, the threat of them will help elect Mitt Romney. What happens when the Dems provide their own Willie Horton? That’s what they’re doing.

      - “Bill Casey’s cowboys…” Well, no; they weren’t the ones opportunistically using the Clinton/Brennan methodology for their own intentions: the Muslim Brotherhood/al Qaeda groups were – (surprised some anti-Israel butt-case hasn’t blamed the Mossad.) The leaks, showing the weaknesses and vulnerability, came from both the Whitehouse and Hillary’s close associates – (Huma, anyone?) Why isn’t her name being brought up?

      - Before Lame Cherry talkes about Mockingbird, I’d been ripping the PATCON “movie” makers – the same ones that made the Koresh movie – they’re the same people: former Mockingbird folks who have no accountability, as Lame Cherry says. No one wants to talk about the “movie” anymore – and that’s just wrong: the administration invested so heavily in the story, it lights a clear link path to their metanarrative; the “movie” is intrinsic to the plot.

    • truthandjustice
    • From a retired Foreign Service agent that’s sort of a State Dept. “Insider”:

      “Ah! The shoe drops . . . Chicago style.

      The day before the critical Romney-Obama debate, Hillary Clinton, our heretofore invisible Secretary of State, makes a carefully calibrated statement that allows the mainstream media to proclaim that Clinton accepts “responsibility” for the Benghazi security fiasco without her actually saying that.

      Forget the headlines, and note what she actually says,

      I take responsibility . . .. I’m in charge of the State Department’s 60,000-plus people all over the world, 275 posts. The president and the vice president wouldn’t be knowledgeable about specific decisions that are made by security professionals. They’re the ones who weigh all of the threats and the risks and the needs and make a considered decision.
      I take this very personally . . . So we’re going to get to the bottom of it, and then we’re going to do everything we can to work to prevent it from happening again, and then we’re going to work to bring whoever did this to us to justice.
      Note she “takes responsibility” but the “specific decisions” on security were made by “security professionals.” Translation: If anybody screwed up, hey, it was those professionals, not me. Otherwise, why would we need an investigation to “get to the bottom of it”? The career bureaucrats can hear the war drums, smell the war paint, and will be sharpening their knives. They know that the Secretary has just put a target on them.

      It gets worse. The real issue is not whether another inch of concrete, or a few armed guards would have made the difference in Benghazi. Given the size and violence of the attack, I doubt that would have done much. The real issues are what was that facility and what was it doing that was so important given the security environment? Why was the Ambassador there on 9/11? Even more important, note later on her garbled statement about the key matter, the attack, the Obama misadministration’s characterization of the attack, and the nature of its response to an attack that went on for some six hours. Nowhere does she say that she contacted the White House, the Libyan government, or that she proposed any particular action. Nowhere does she explain the difference between the statements put out by Rice, Obama, and herself, blaming the attack on a virtually unseen video, and the statements by State and CIA career officers that State never concluded that the attack was the result of an anti-video demonstration gone rogue.

      This misadministration continues to play games. Don’t fall for it.”
