Confirmed: Benghazi was Cover-up of Arms Transfer to al-Qaeda

The corporate media is now forced to
admit that the Benghazi attack was staged by a State Department hired
jihadist security outfit in connection with an arms transfer to al-Qaeda
mercenaries in Syria.
It has yet to point out, however, that the Obama administration attempted to cover-up the real reason for the murder of ambassador Stevens – U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice and the State Department initially pointing to a lame anti-Muslim video
– and has consistently downplayed the incident and characterized it as a
non-event not requiring congressional investigation and the impeachment
of President Obama.
Covert War Between the Pentagon and CIA
A number of guests appearing on the Alex Jones Show
following the attack have built an indisputable case that the CIA was
shipping arms from U.S.-controlled facilities located at the U.S.
mission in Benghazi to its mercenaries in Syria and the murder of
ambassador Stevens was carried out by an al-Qaeda affiliated group as
part of a turf war between the CIA and elements in the Pentagon.
In May, former government insider Steve Pieczenik explained how a Pentagon effort to derail a CIA operation may have occurred.
“The real issue is very simple, you have
to think of two elements of the government fighting each other that are
covert,” Pieczenik told the Alex Jones Show. “The government is never
unified, it never has been unified. For over thirty or forty years there
has been a conflict between the military and the CIA and the FBI… The
CIA has been run for the last fifty years by civilians who are out of
control.”
Appearing on the Alex Jones Show in November, investigative journalist Wayne Madsen also stated that the murder of Stevens was connected to a turf war between the Pentagon and the CIA.
All the evidence points to the Pentagon doing nothing to stop the attack on the compound. Martin Dempsey,
chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff, admitted during a Senate hearing in
June that highly trained Special Forces were stationed a few hours away
from Benghazi on the night of the attacks but were not deployed.
This contradicts comments made by Gregory Hicks,
the former top U.S. diplomat in Benghazi, who told Congress in May that
officials from Special Operations Command-Africa ordered the units to
stand down.
In May, Infowars.com posted an article reporting the fact the Benghazi attack and the murder of ambassador Stevens had nothing to do with an absurd anti-Islam video, as the establishment media and the Obama administration insisted, but was directly connected
to the shipment of arms from Libya to the mercenaries in Syria and, as
Pieczenik explained, a covert struggle between the Pentagon and
civilians in the CIA.
Ambassador Stevens and the CIA’s Jihadist Recruitment
Last November, Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer pointed out during an appearance on the Alex Jones Show
that Turkey partnered with the CIA to take down Bashar al-Assad in
Syria and, hours before the compound was attacked and Stevens and others
lost their lives, the Turkish Consul General Ali Sait Akin met with the U.S. ambassador.
According to Egyptian security officials, Stevens was instrumental in recruiting jihadists for the CIA’s war in Syria and “served as a key contact with the Saudis to coordinate the recruitment
by Saudi Arabia of Islamic fighters from North Africa and Libya. The
jihadists were sent to Syria via Turkey to attack Assad’s forces,”
writes Aaron Klein.
As Infowars.com and others have
reported, the Syrian mercenaries belong to the al-Nusra Front, an
al-Qaeda affiliate. This is part of a well-established pattern on the
part of the CIA going back to at least its recruitment of the Mujahideen and so-called Afghan Arabs in Afghanistan and later in the Balkans.
It was learned after the attack that the February 17th Martyrs Brigade was paid by the State Department to protect
the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi. The group had “clear al-Qaida
sympathies, and had prominently displayed the al-Qaida flag on a
Facebook page for months before the deadly attack,” Max Rosenthal
reported for Newsmax in May. The February 17th Martyrs Brigade, it was
latter learned during a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee
hearing, are in league with Ansar al-Sharia, said to be linked to
al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb.
CIA Sending Surface-to-air Missiles to Libya
Part of the operation involving Stevens
included sending surface-to-air missiles to al-Qaeda in Syria.
“Speculation on Capitol Hill has included the possibility the U.S.
agencies operating in Benghazi were secretly helping to move
surface-to-air missiles out of Libya, through Turkey, and into the hands
of Syrian rebels,” CNN reported late last week, months after Infowars.com and others reported the illicit arms shipment.
Predictably, the establishment media, led by CNN and Fox News, is taking credit for exposing details on the arms smuggling operation. On Saturday, Fox News “political insider” Geraldo Rivera
speculated “that the CIA is covering up a gun-running operation in
Benghazi.” Now that the real details on Benghazi are public, the
establishment media is playing catch-up and is attempting to control the
story.
The Obama administration announced in late September that “it planned to expand a program to secure
and destroy Libya’s huge stockpile of dangerous surface-to-air
missiles” and that “the U.S. State Department has one official on the
ground in Libya, as well as five contractors
who specialize in ‘explosive ordinance disposal,’ all working with the
rebel Transitional National Council to find the looted missiles,” ABC News reported.
In fact, the State Department, under the
guidance of ambassador Stevens, was moving to round up the missiles and
send them to al-Qaeda in Syria. Prior to this, in December, 2011, the U.S. claimed
to have secured 5,000 surface-to-air missiles and destroyed them
outside of the village of Sidi Bin Nur in Libya. Doubtless, instead,
they became part of the CIA’s cache destined for Syria.
