Audacity of Truth

""The whole issue of this - of talking points, frankly, throughout this process has been a sideshow. The whole thing defies logic. And the fact that this keeps on getting churned out, frankly, has a lot to do with political motivations."
Pres. Obama on GOP demands for Benghazi answers, 5/13/2013

Does al Qaeda now have surface to air missiles?
**Posted by Phineas Oh, this is not good. Not good at all: The photocopies of the manual lay in heaps on the floor, in stacks that scaled one wall, like Xeroxed, stapled handouts for a class. Except that the students in this case were al Qaeda fighters in Mali. And the manual was a detailed guide, [...]
With friends like these: Was Egypt involved in the #Benghazi massacre?
**Posted by Phineas The idea seems insane — Egypt participating in the assault on our consulate, when they desperately need outside help to keep their economy (barely) functioning? Sounds like the stuff of conspiracy theories, and Egyptian society thrives on such, but journalist Cynthia Farahat presents enough interesting facts to make one go “hmmmm:” The terrorist attack [...]
New administration defense on #Benghazi: “We’re not evil, just idiots.”
**Posted by Phineas You know it’s bad when pleading stupidity is the best you can come up with. Via Sharyl Attkisson at CBS: Obama administration officials who were in key positions on Sept. 11, 2012 acknowledge that a range of mistakes were made the night of the attacks on the U.S. missions in Benghazi, and in messaging [...]
Shocker: Lying weasel Jay Carney caught lying like a weasel about #Benghazi
**Posted by Phineas And I think the shocking thing is that it’s the MSM exposing him (emphases added): When it became clear last fall that the CIA’s now discredited Benghazi talking points were flawed, the White House said repeatedly the documents were put together almost entirely by the intelligence community, but White House documents reviewed by [...]
The mystery of Obama and #Benghazi
**Posted by Phineas In my last post, I focused on Hillary Clinton’s craven behavior, driven by her lust for the Oval Office. But, as I point out, that doesn’t let Obama off the hook. He is the President, he is the Commander in Chief, and yet when American diplomats were attacked that night, he apparently [...]
#Benghazi: Hearings show Hillary Clinton really is “Lady Macbeth.”
**Posted by Phineas I’ve joked since the Clintons first came on the national scene that Hillary was a modern-day “Lady Macbeth,” willing to do anything and put up with anything to get power and keep it. Think about it: why else would someone suffer repeated public humiliations from a serial-philanderer husband, one widely reputed to [...]
Confirmed: #Benghazi consulate denied military help, administration cover up collapsing
**Posted by Phineas Via Sharyl Attkisson/CBS News, this is just disgusting: The deputy of slain U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens has told congressional investigators that a team of Special Forces prepared to fly from Tripoli to Benghazi during the Sept. 11, 2012 attacks was forbidden from doing so by U.S. Special Operations Command South Africa. The account [...]
#Benghazi: Obama denied aid to attacked consulate – confirmed?
**Posted by Phineas Last November, in a post about the Benghazi consulate massacre and the question of military relief, I wrote about the question of “cross-border authority” – that is, who has the power to order our military to enter another country without their permission, per force an act of war. Quoting an article at PJM by Matt [...]
#BostonBombing: Did the Saudis warn us ahead of time in writing? UPDATE: Saudi denial?
**Posted by Phineas UPDATE: I’m sticking this at the top because the story’s important enough to warrant it. Now we have a “Saudi official” saying there was a letter, and their embassy in Washington saying no, there wasn’t. So, who’s lying, and why? (via Toby Harnden) The Saudi embassy in Washington, D.C. today denied its [...]
Leading from behind will lose us Iraq
**Posted by Phineas This is potentially very bad: After a week of violence in Iraq in which more than 170 Iraqis, including tribesmen, soldiers, and policemen have been killed in clashes during Sunni protests in Salahuddin province, the Awakening is preparing to take up arms against the Iraqi government. On April 24, Sheikh Ahmed Abu [...]
