Benghazi: What Did the CIA Know, and When Did it Know it? Forget the Talk. The CIA’s Cover Up May be the Real Mystery.

Before It’s New – by Tom Dennen, the paranoid historian

… the CIA has largely escaped unscathed. “They’ve gotten a pass on a lot of this,” a former Obama administration official says. Perhaps that’s the real scandal.

GOP scandal-chasers have been obsessed with the Obama administration’s talking points about the attack on US facilities in Benghazi, Libya, that left four Americans dead, and the White House on Wednesday tried to put the pseudo-scandal to rest by releasing a batch of interagency emails related to the talking points.  

These emails thoroughly undercut the conservative charge that the White House massaged the talking points to whitewash the attack and protect President Obama’s reelection prospects. One email from a CIA official noted that the White House “cleared quickly” the talking points drafted by the CIA but the State Department had concerns. Poof—there goes the conspiracy theory that Obama’s aides excised references to terrorism and an Al Qaeda-linked group for campaign-related reasons. But questions about the Benghazi episode remain, particularly this one: Has the CIA avoided scrutiny for its central role in this affair?

Last week, the Washington Post‘s Glenn Kessler noted that the revised talking points indicated that Obama administration officials in various agencies were inhibited by a key fact as they were grappling with what could be said publicly about the attacks in Benghazi: The assault had targeted a CIA annex in addition to a temporary State Department mission. That made the job tough for the drafters of the talking points. As Kessler wrote,

from the State Department perspective, this was an attack on a CIA operation, perhaps by the very people the CIA was battling, and the ambassador [Chris Stevens] tragically was in the wrong place at the wrong time. But, for obvious reasons, the administration could not publicly admit that Benghazi was mostly a secret CIA effort.

Kessler emphasized an obvious point: The initial talking points drafted by the CIA implied that “State screwed up, even though internally, it was known that this was a CIA operation.” Naturally, at the time, Victoria Nuland, the State Department spokeswoman, objected to this. So here was a bureaucratic tussle—not White House skullduggery. Yet the CIA’s attempt to duck blame may be the more important story than what UN Ambassador Susan Rice was handed in preparation for her Sunday talk show appearance.

  1. The rise of the CIA beast started with Harry Truman signing the 1947 National Security Act, which formed the CIA from the OSS.

    The CIA was supposed to serve the president, but has evolved into a self-perpetuating monster that no one, not even the president, can control.

    When Bill Clinton was president, he had asked one of the CIA heads to see what they had on UFO’s and Area 57. He was told that the info was on a ‘need to know basis, and Mr. President, you don’t need to know.’

    The CIA, Britain’s MI6 and the MOSSAD is where most of the terror emanates from that is putting the planet in danger of extinction.

  2. It seems the story that the CIA was using the American embassy in Benghazi as a control center to manage the transfer of arms from Libya to the Syrian rebels is the real “story” that’s not being told.

  3. “Benghazi: What Did the CIA Know, and When Did it Know it? Forget the Talk.”

    I’m assuming those are rhetorical questions, as in all likelihood the CIA orchestrated said operation.

    Along with Mossad, that is.

    1. Hillary is right in the middle of this BS. But what does she care, she was just paid 25 million for a new tell all book. After all, she has to pay for that 5 million dollar Manhattan pad she just bought her daughter. What kind of idiot would read this trash anyway?

      “HILLARY Clinton is writing a tell-all biography — so that there will be no secrets left to uncover when she runs for president in 2016!

      The former First Lady will expose explosive details of the shocking marital and political lies.

      Hillary will finally admit the truth about her sexuality, her recent brain cancer agony and what really happened to Osama bin Laden’s corpse.

      “By writing this tell-all, Hillary will settle old scores and get revenge on her enemies,” said a close friend.

      “But she’ll easily earn as much as $25 million through future royalties.

      “And as hard as it’s been for Bill to stomach, Hillary is going to put it all out there. She’ll deal with the fallout when the book is published so it will all be old news by the time she runs for president in 2016.

      “Bill and Hillary are the consummate politi­cians, and they realize the LGBT community is a huge voting bloc.

      “They want lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgender people behind Hillary in the 2016 campaign. So Hillary’s going to come clean for the votes. She’ll admit that she’s bisexual and has had lesbian relationships.

      “Hillary sent a clear message about her true feelings, saying that her ‘personal views’ about gay life and marriage ‘have been shaped over time by people I have known and loved’.

      “While Hillary wasn’t specific about the identity of those ‘people,’ her book will reveal all the details.”

      Hillary will also confirm that a veterinarian who treated the family cat Socks at the White House stumbled upon her locked in a steamy embrace with a woman.

      Another lie that Hillary will fess up to is her denial that she battled a serious brain crisis before being hos­pitalized with a blood clot in her head.”
