House Republicans' report pours forth new light on Benghazi attack. 800 pages report has been released on Tuesday, June 28, 2016.
The following facts are among the many new interesting, to say the least, revelations:
- Despite Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta’s clear orders to deploy military assets, nothing was sent to Benghazi, and was on its way to Libya at the time the last two Americans were killed almost 8 hours after the attacks began. (pg. 141)
- A Fleet Antiterrorism Security Team (FAST) sat on a plane in Rota, Spain, for three hours, and changed in and out of their uniforms four times. (Pg.154)
- One section of the report alleges that U.S. Government fundamentally misunderstood who their allies were at the time.
Report found that 35 Americans were saved not by a "quasi-governmental militia" as previous reports concluded, or even a group the U.S. saw as allies. Instead, the report determines that the Americans were saved by the "Libyan Military Intelligence," a group composed of military officers under the Moammar Khaddafy regime, the Libyan dictator who the U.S. helped topple just one year earlier.
The February 17 Martyr Brigade, "recommended by the Libyan Government and contractually obligated to provide security to the Mission Compound," had fled, the report found. "In other words, some of the very individuals the United States helped remove from power during the Libyan revolution were the only Libyans that came to the assistance of the United States on the night of the Benghazi attacks," the report states.
Our analysis of those three facts brought us to following three questions:
- Who in the United States Government has stopped Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta’s clear orders to deploy military assets to Benghazi?
- Who has given the orders to US FAST team to sit three hours in a plane and change in and out of their uniforms four times at the time when Islamic terrorists attacked and killed four Americans?
- Who at that time in the US Government was in charge of “understanding” of who the allies of the USA are and who are the enemies of the USA?
We believe that our readers should direct all those questions to their Senators and House Representatives. Maybe they will help all of us to find correct answers to relatively simple three questions. B.V. June 29, 2016
