~ “I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: as government expands, liberty contracts.” Ronald Reagan.
The mainstream media refers to it as a gaffe when the truth to the matter is that Hillary Clinton’s remark stating that the USA loss no one is Libya is a misrepresentation of the facts.
Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton committed her second gaffe in as many days on the campaign trail Monday night, claiming that the U.S. “didn’t lose a single person” in Libya during her time as secretary of state.
Clinton made the comment defending her push for regime change in the war-torn North African nation at an Illinois town hall hosted by MSNBC.
“Now, is Libya perfect? It isn’t,” Clinton said. After contrasting her approach toward Libya with the ongoing bloodshed in Syria’s civil war, Clinton said “Libya was a different kind of calculation and we didn’t lose a single person …
Clinton, of course, would ask, “What difference, at this point, does it make?” She’s right if she means that nothing done after the attacks could bring back the men who were killed. But that’s not what we’re concerned about. The issue is what was done — or not done — before and during the attacks.
We’re not claiming that Hillary gave the stand-down order. The men who said they received it insist it came from the top CIA security officer in Benghazi […]
Nothing says screw you Obama like the Libyan Air Force posting to their Facebook Timeline, photographs of twenty US special operation troops on a secret mission arriving in Libya (“in combat readiness wearing bullet proof jackets, advanced weapons”) for the world to see only to be kicked out a short time later.
A secret US commando mission to Libya has been revealed after photographs of a special forces unit were posted on the Facebook page of the country’s air force.
Libya’s air force said 20 US soldiers arrived at Libya’s Wattiya airbase on Monday, but left soon after local commanders asked them to go because they had no permission to be at the base. It was unclear if another branch of the Libyan military had authorized the mission.
Pentagon sources confirmed to US media that the special forces unit was part of a mission sent this week, but it was unclear if the soldiers had left the country….
While the media is pushing the narrative about the troops being kicked out of Libya, no one is focusing on the fact that the Libyan Air Force by posting their photographs on Facebook has exposed the identities of these troops.
Remember Extortion 17, call sign for Navy SEAL Team Six who died on August 11, 2011 when the Taliban shot down their Chinook helicopter in Afghanistan moments before the helicopter was scheduled to land. Until this day, the Obama administration continues to stonewall the investigation.
The safety of these troops should be a concern to the U. S. government.
How surprising is it that former Secretary of State and 2016 Progressive candidate, Hillary, used “multiple email accounts”, i.e., hrod17@clintonemail.com and hdr22@clintonemail.com.
Better yet, who would have thought that Sidney Blumenthal who served in the Clinton White House among other connections lobbied Clinton while she was Secretary of State for his own self-enrichment on matters related to Libya before and after Benghazi.
Emails published by the New York Times Monday indicate that Hillary Clinton used more than one private email address during her time as secretary of state, contradicting previous claims from the Democratic presidential contender’s office. Multiple emails show Clinton used account “hrod17@clintonemail.com” while serving in the Obama administration as secretary of state.

Clinton’s attorney, David Kendall, had previously told Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) that that particular address had not “existed during Secretary Clinton’s tenure as Secretary of State.” Another statement from Clinton’s office said she only used […]
In A Letter To Rep. Trey Gowdy, Clinton’s Attorney, David Kendall, Stated That “hrod17@clintonemail.com” Was “Not An Address That Existed During Secretary Clinton’s Tenure As Secretary Of State.” (David E. Kendall, Letter To Rep. Trey Gowdy , 3/27/15)
NOTE: In A Footnote To His Letter To Rep. Gowdy, Kendall States “Secretary Clinton Used One Email Account When Corresponding With Anyone, From Department Officials To Friends To Family.” (David E. Kendall, Letter To Rep. Trey Gowdy , 3/27/15)
According to the New York Times, Sidney Blumenthal once served the Clinton White House well by casting himself as “speechwriter, in-house intellectual and press corps” .
Blumenthal was accused by Republicans of spreading gossip about them “to discredit Republican investigators, and forced him to testify during President Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial.”
With Clinton making her second bid for the White House, Blumenthal a willing servant to all things Clinton finds himself under Trey Gowdy’s flashlight. Subpoena time.
New York Times By Nicholas Confessore and Michael S. Schmidt
Mr. Gowdy’s chief interest, according to people briefed on the inquiry, is a series of memos that Mr. Blumenthal — who was not an employee of the State Department — wrote to Mrs. Clinton about events unfolding in Libya before and after the death of Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi. According to emails obtained by The New York Times, Mrs. Clinton, who was secretary of state at the time, took Mr. Blumenthal’s advice seriously, forwarding his memos to senior diplomatic officials in Libya and Washington and at times asking them to respond. Mrs. Clinton continued to pass around his memos even after other senior diplomats concluded that Mr. Blumenthal’s assessments were often unreliable.
But an examination by The Times suggests that Mr. Blumenthal’s involvement was more wide-ranging and more complicated than previously known, embodying the blurry lines between business, politics and philanthropy that have enriched and vexed the Clintons and their inner circle for years…..
Trey Gowdy is looking to find out what Blumenthal knows about Libya and how much does he know about the September 11, 2012 Islamic terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya that left four Americans dead, U. S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens, State Department employee Sean Smith and Navy SEALS Glen A. Doherty and Tyrone S. Woods.
Besides any conflicts of interest that both Blumenthal and the Clinton’s may have had on the operation in Libya, “Gowdy’s committee on the attacks in Benghazi hopes to ask Mr. Blumenthal who, if anyone, was paying him to prepare the memos for Mrs. Clinton and whether they were among his responsibilities at the Clinton Foundation.”
In 2011 and 2012, Hillary Rodham Clinton received at least 25 memos about Libya from Sidney Blumenthal, a friend and confidant who at the time was employed by the Clinton Foundation. The memos, written in the style of intelligence cables, make up about a third of the almost 900 pages of emails related to Libya that Mrs. Clinton said she kept on the personal email account she used exclusively as secretary of state. …
In April 2011, Mr. Blumenthal sent Mrs. Clinton a memo about the rebel forces fighting the regime of Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi. The rebels, Mr. Blumenthal wrote, were considering hiring security contractors to train their forces. Mrs. Clinton forwarded the memo to her aide, Jake Sullivan, and said that the idea should be considered. (Pages 1-3)…

HILLARY SPEAKS
Finally, it must be getting pretty hot in the kitchen because for the first time since announcing her 2016 candidacy for president, Clinton took questions from the press. Her answers to the questions pretty much amounted to nothing as she provided no answers to the questions posed.
Walid and Theodore Shoebat in a follow up to the original article containing the video of the Islamic State slaughtering 30 Ethiopian Christians have posted a new article translating much of the video:
So why did the Muslims of ISIS behead 30 Ethiopian Christians whose lineage is said to go all the way back to Philip the Apostle?
we translated the reason given as to why did the Muslims of ISIS behead 30 Ethiopian Christians:
We tell the Christians everywhere that the Islamic state will spread by Allah’s will. It [the Islamic state] will get to you even if you are safe in your fortresses. Who ever converts to Islam, he will have peace and who accepts the Dhimmi status will be at peace. But who rejects our terms he will receive nothing from us except the sharpness of the sword. Men will be slaughtered and the women and children will be enslaved and their monies are confiscated as booty. This is the rule of Allah and his prophet. And to Allah is the pride and also to the believers but the hypocrites do not understand.
… So these, according to ISIS refused to submit to Islam and got slaughtered. The rest is translated in the English in which it is all about breaking the cross as the message is clear, it is the breaking of the will of the Christians which ISIS failed to do with these saints….
Another video has surfaced of the Islamic State savages beheading 15 Christians and shooting another 15 Christians execution style in Libya along with the pledge from the savages to continue the genocide of Christian until the whole world converts to Islam en masse. H/t BareNakedIslam.
A new video just discovered reveals ISIS taking thirty innocent Ethiopian Christians, and beheading them and slaughtering them with guns in the nation of Libya. According to some reports, they beheaded 15 Christians by beheading and slaughtered another 15 with guns. In The video the ISIS terrorist affirms that they will continue killing Christians until “polytheism” is destroyed, that is, until the belief in the Trinity is destroyed. The heresy of Islam wants to destroy Orthodox Christianity and replace it unitarianism, but this beast of the Antichrist is going to be the one losing in the end. God willing, Italy and other Christian nations will wipe ISIS off in Libya….
Zio-Wahhabi ISIS spokes jihadist in this video appears to have a North American accent.
The video allegedly shows two groups of captives, one held by a subsidiary of Zio-Wahhabi in eastern Libya called Barka Province and the other held by a subsidiary in Southern Province Fazzan call.
Bret Baier of Fox News sat down with three of the security contractors—Mark Geist, Kris Paronto and JohnTiegen—who were on the ground and fighting the terrorist mob that attacked the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, on September 11–12, 2012; 22:00–02:00 EET (UTC+02:00). …
Rarely do I watch a program more than once but I watched it at least three times out of the many times the above program played this weekend.
I did so because I wanted to be sure that I was hearing correctly the events as they unfolded as told by witnesses who were on the ground in Libya when the U.S. Consulate and CIA safe house came under assault in Benghazi almost two years to the date, September 12, 2012, by Islamic terrorists that resulted in the deaths of four Americans, US. Ambassador, Christopher Stevens, Ambassador, Sean Smith, Information Officer, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods, Navy SEALs and the injuries dozens of others.
The fact that help was just five minutes away and had they not been ordered to stand down for 30 minutes, Stevens, Ambassador, Smith, Doherty and Woods would not have died that night leaves one’s blood boiling.
