Lt. Col. Andrew Wood on Benghazi Attack: “It Was a Matter of Time – We Were Last Flag Standing” (Video)

Lt. Col. Andrew Wood told the House Oversight Committee today that he was not surprised to hear about the Benghazi 9-11 terror attacks,

“It was a matter of time. We were the last flag standing.”

The US was the last country to keep a consulate in Benghazi. The Brits pulled their staff after the ambassador’s caravan was attacked this past summer.

Lt. Col. Andrew Wood also told the committee that the Benghazi terror attack has helped Al-Qaeda.

No protest before Benghazi attack, wounded Libyan guard says

[A Libyan security guard who said he was at the U.S. consulate here
when it was attacked Tuesday night has provided new evidence that
the assault on the compound that left four Americans dead, including
the U.S. ambassador to Libya, was a planned attack by armed Islamists
and not the outgrowth of a protest over an online video that mocks
Islam and its founder, the Prophet Muhammad.]

Source: This is how Islamists knew of secret U.S. safehouse

[An Egyptian security official speaking to WND today said there
is information about large-scale infiltration by al-Qaida and its
affiliated Jihadia Salafiya groups within the Libyan security
apparatus.

The claim comes amid speculation about how Islamists who targeted
the U.S. mission in Libya seemed to have inside information about the
movement of the American diplomats in the country as well as the
location of a supposedly secret U.S. safehouse in Libya.]

Obama Brotherhood commented:

The newest new explanation by the Obama administration is that there was no incompetence. The attack just was… Unprecedented.

The economy inherited was unprecedented. The deficit and debt was unprecedented. Taliban obstinate was unprecedented. The inability of green energy to actually work was unprecedented. Romneys strength in the debate was unprecedented.

I don’t think they realize the meaning of the word. To a rookie who has zero experience, every new experience is unprecedented.

British Press Insist on Evidence that Obama Covered
Up Benghazi Terror Attack, Before and After

[Also on Oct. 3, London Daily Telegraph Defense Editor Con Coughlin asks: "Did the White House order a coverup over the murder of Libya's US Ambassador?" Noting the changing statements of Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton, and Obama, the Telegraph says, "But the real smoking gun is whether the Obama administration was warned in advance that al-Qaeda was planning an attack. A number of Israeli newspapers have suggested that Washington was warned as early as September 4 — a week earlier — that the environment in Benghazi was becoming increasingly hostile and anti-American, while in London the Foreign Office took the decision to withdraw all its consular staff from Benghazi two months before the murders."]

[Sources close to U.S. President Barack Obama's administration revealed that White House officials apparently received warnings that there were threats made to attack as many as seven U.S. missions in the Middle East, on the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, as early as September 4. Sources also revealed that additional warnings were received a few days later, with similar information, but that all of the warnings were largely ignored by the administration. Normally when such warnings are received by the administration, the threat level is raised at U.S. installations around the world. At this point, there is no evidence that the Obama administration communicated the warnings with Consular officials in Libya or Egypt in advance of attacks that took place Monday in Benghazi, Libya and Cairo, Egypt, leaving the U.S. Ambassador to Libya and three other Americans dead, with eight others wounded, including some U.S. military personnel.]

Devastating testimony. Wonder how many will hear it or much of the rest of it. I turned to MSNBC and they weren’t showing the hearings. CNN had a split screen and some reporter was talking over what was going on at the hearings. So I guess they’d be able to say they “covered” the hearings. Maybe only playing what they knew couldn’t hurt the administration?

I wonder if Jay Carney’s typing up his resignation letter this afternoon. Or, should I be wondering if he’s printing up the resignation letter he’s typed and retyped over almost weekly over the last couple of years. He’s gotta’ be ready to quote Eric Cartman, “Screw you guys. I’m going home.”

@ #9 Look-Out: When it concluded, I thought to myself, “Glad I watched/listened to this for myself because there’s no telling what parts of it will actually be reported and with how much spin.” I may be one of a tiny minority, but at least I know the truth…” …the truth of this one incident, that is.

Meanwhile back in the ‘asphalt jungle’……..

This news made my day. No good bastard is probably already walking the streets again but at least when he’s blown away by a Zimmerman next time he pulls it, they won’t be able to paint him as an innocent kid that obama would love to call son.

“City schools spokeswoman Ebony Pugh said she can’t comment on any discipline the student may face and isn’t sure school officials will exercise any jurisdiction because the attack happened off school grounds and after the school day had ended.”

Figures.

Egypt: Barack Obama the true leader of the Muslim Brotherhood

["I consider the Brotherhood to be a threat to Egypt," said one of
the eight, prize winning novelist Gamal el-Ghetani. "We are living
a moment that may be similar to (Adolf) Hitler's rise to power."]

["People here are against the United States helping Ennahda," a
journalist told Totten. "All Americans who come here are against
the Islamists, but the American government is supporting them. I
wish we had a good, modern, respectful Islamic party. I'm a Muslim
and I'm proud of it, but I'm not proud of this party."

The government is seen as far too cozy with radical Salafists,
looking the other way as the radicals stake a claim to the new
society. Ennahda members joined the Salafists in a recent rally
calling for Sharia law in Tunisia.]

A particularly foul lie from the Liar-in-Chief who will take us all down with him…

And that truth is, now unequivocally proven by facts that anyone with an ounce of sense can ably see, that Barack Obama is a liar. And given the fear and anger that his lies stir in his target communities, he’s a dangerous one.
