State Department: Stop asking us about the Beghazi attack

State Department: Stop asking us about the Benghazi attack | The Cable



It's not a "crime scene." It's the site of an act of war and an egregious security breach.

Preposterous. Will the press give them this pass? They shouldn't.




This is against all traditions of freedom of the Press and another cover-up by the Obama Administration for the embarrassingly incorrect responses to this tragedy.

They are no doubt hoping it will all go away if they stonewall enough.

An ongoing disgraceful performance that can only help the enemies of the US!
 
I don't know how anyone can say that with a straight face. Batman was a crime scene -- we had information galore. Zimmerman/Martin was a crime scene -- we had information galore...recordings...photographs...likely scenerios...coppers constantly updating the press.

This is bull****. And know what it tells me? All is not as it seems. Wake up.


Maggie...of course all is not as it seems.... there is a secret agenda with this President. Everybody knows that by now!
 
FBI is responsible for specific terrorism-related offenses, such as violence at airports, money laundering, attacks on U.S. officials, and others. While I agree that something(s) went horribly wrong and needs to be ferreted out, that can only happen after a full investigation has taken place and in order for those breaches to be corrected, much of the findings won't be disclosed, as in doing so, it would compromise the integrity of the alterations to security that will invariably result. I don't believe it is beneficial for any discovery to be shared with the public at large, especially while tensions in the region remain so inflamed.

I don't see anything out of line with what the State Department said here.

Well said.

One addition: National security should and must outweigh politics, even in a Presidential election year.

Are you joking? all he wants is to be re elected .... he failed badly in this one....national security my eye!
 
For those of you who believe the State Department will ever release any relevant information...think again.

"I will make a personal pledge to you that if I become aware that information we gave that first night is radically wrong in a way that you deserve to know, I will do my best to get that information to you,"

That statement is so full of qualifiers as to make it useless as a promise.

Hi Mya,

I have no plans on voting for Obama. Can't think of any reason why I would, based on the last four years anyway.

So, my opinion about this has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with national security. My concern is not for Obama, but for the people that put their lives on the line for us everyday.

I just wish the Obama Administration had done this regarding the OBL mission, and kept their mouths shut then. Two of my buddies were on that mission, and are not happy at all about the bragging that outed them. Their families are in hiding now.

Now that? That pissed me off.

This one? Not at all. One of the few moves regarding the military or national security or international relations that they got right. Let's see how long they can keep their mouths shut. My guess? Not long. And the only reason they are now? Hillary put a lid on it. If she had been in the White House, I don't think we ever would have heard about ST6 taking out OBL.

I pray to God Obama and family will be out of the White House soon...

if not... America deserves all that is coming .... and it ain't be nice.

Could not agree more...and now that Al-Qa'eda have taken responsibility for what happened in Libya; now that the red herring the US Gov't were using by way of a you tube video has thoroughly been debunked/disqualified by both the Libyan gov't and the organization that actually carried out the attacks, they will fall all over themselves to take the American public's attention off of this...they got the narrative wrong...that doesn't mean they are obligated to jeopardize the security of other US personnel in the region in the process.

Yep. They sure hate going public with any info on the raid:

"A retired Navy SEAL Team 6 member who was involved in the killing of Osama bin Laden told 60 Minutes that his new tell-all book about the raid..."

Without the pics and media we wouldn't be able to tell when bush left and Obushama took over.

Yep. One guy that breaks the Code defines an entire group of people that go where no one else will to do what no one else can.

Until ST6 was named by the White House, no one other than SOF operatives ever even knew it existed. There were only two teams that had ever been officially recognized as existing and number 6 wasn't one of them.

This guy that wrote the book has betrayed the Code, his Oath and every member of the SOF community.

And BTW, the book is a load of crap as to what happened and how. That is based on two guys that I used to work with that were there, and according to anyone that knows anything about how these ops are accomplished.

He's just trying to make a buck, and for that, he has put his life, his families life, and the lives of everyone in the SOF community at risk. I hope he enjoys his car, or house or whatever the hell he buys with the money, because it can never pay to rebuild his reputation or trust in him.

I don't believe for one second you know any Seals. Sorry, but your posts are coming through pegging the BS meter.
 
Show a correlation between the two in what I said. ST6 was the lead element, but not the only ones there.

Again, do you have any idea what a SOF team is made up of?

When you start word dancing this soon.....well....have a good day and take your crap back to freeperville.

What is freeperville?

Seriously. I am not trying to word dance.

You do know that there are more than just one branch of the services represented on a SOF team, right?

Like I said, ST6 was the lead element, but there were more than a few others there as well.

I'll give you hint. These are mine and are very similar to the guys that I know that were there:

Thanks. I've never heard of them.

I figured it must be an insult. It just wasn't a good one since I didn't get the reference.
 
Hows this working out now since the Administration has pulled back the FBI stating that it is to unsafe for them to go into Libya? What gives the Right of the FBI to go into other foreign countries to investigate something of this matter? What because the FBI says they can investigate acts of terroism? Sounds real nice for those in our Country. Now how does it apply with any country.

Especially when they can tell the FBI.....STFU! Kizz my azz and get the Frick out of our country?

Do you honestly think that after 2 weeks to a month they will be able to pick up any forensic evidence from the Scene of the Crime?
 
Seems the Media doesnt want to talk about the Protests so much now. As they sure dont have much up on those......on-going activities as Hot News or Most Popular anymore.

Do you think it was due to the Sunday Political Talk Shows and this Administration coming out on all cylinders and stating all of this commotion is from that Video? All of it Spontaneous and nothing more.
 
Yeah...Obama and Co. kind of stepped in it big-time and now they...and their lap-dog media...want to sweep it all under the rug. They tried lying. That didn't work. Now they'll try just ignoring the whole thing.

But hey...that Kate Middelton thing happened at just the right moment, didn't it. For Obama, that is. Helps take the heat off of him.

Deflecting from that fact the Country was Hit on their Watch and around the Anniversary of 911. Which it's not on just 2 Embassies. It's over 23 US Embassies and or Consulates(USA-Property) plus Now Afghanistan is Protesting all of our US Military bases as we speak!
