| Operation Zero Footprint: The bombshell truth about Benghazi? |
| 2014-06-26 |
| " We know Operation Zero Footprint was the covert transfer of weapons from the U.S to the Libyan "rebels". We also know the operation avoided the concerns with congressional funding, and potential for public scrutiny, through financing by the United Arab Emirates (UAE). We also know that officials within the government of Qatar served as the intermediaries for the actual transfer of the weapons, thereby removing the footprint of the U.S. intervention. We know the entire operation was coordinated and controlled by the State Department and CIA. We also know (from the Senate Foreign Relations Benghazi hearings) that "Zero Footprint" was unknown to the 2011 Pentagon and/or DoD commanders who would have been tasked with any military response to the 9/11/12 attack �-- namely AFRICOM General Carter Ham. However, it would be implausible to think that then Defense Secretary Bob Gates or Joint Chiefs Chair Admiral McMullen were completely unaware of the operation, this aspect remains murky." |

| #6 Col. West is onto something--explains a lot and ties a lot of loose ends up. So we armed Abu Khattala who ended up attacking our embassy and killing Ambo Stevens and three others. Recently, the Abu Khattala was snatched in Libya and is now on his way to Washington for trial. What do ya bet he hangs himself along the way or has an a fatal aneurism or heart attack? Why would he turn on the hands that feed him? Did he go rouge and not follow the script? Frog and scorpion story? What's that all about? |

| #5 Gee, it so good to know our leaders have trained and armed the very same people who are now intent on attacking the United States as soon as they consolidate their takeover of Iraq. If they did just one thing right in the last 5 years I might be able to believe they are just inept and near sighted. The insurgents are now in possession of all of Saddam's WMDs (mostly nerve gas) and say they have a nuke; doesn't that make you feel all warm and fuzzy. |

| #4 Hey, so the plan went wrong. Yes, the Islamic radicals are SOB's, but they're OUR SOB's... and those of our pals in the KSA. Besides, we don't like Baby Assad or Vlad, they are ruthlessly evil homophobes. |

| #3 So lemme get this straight. We arm and train Islamic radicals to fight a war in Syria and then we act all surprised when they invade Iraq and thereby nullify a hard fought victory in Iraq. Thanks a lot, Baraq. Are you really going to claim you didn't know these people were al Qaeda all along? And thanks, Hillary. Maybe the one silver lining in this whole mess is that Hildebeast's chances in 2016 are toast. |

| #1 West is hot on the trail, but I believe there is more, much more. Congressman [soon to depart the congress] Mike Rogers' wife, Kristi Clemens Rogers, was, until recently, the president and CEO of the U.S. branch of the British Aegis LLC a "security" defense contractor company, whom she helped to secure a $10 billion contract with the State Department. The company describes itself as "a leading private security company, provides government and corporate clients with a full spectrum of intelligence-led, culturally-sensitive security solutions to operational and development challenges around the world." When I first learned of the Aegis connection, my horn went off. Aegis sets the world-wide industry standard on gun running and regime change. Appears to be tissue sticking to the bottom of a great many shoes. |
