Bin Laden is Dead, Buried at Sea or Blown to Bits

All other speculation is Conspiracy Theory

John R. Houk

© February 27, 2015

Below is an exchange between myself (John Houk) and Robert Cold. I suspect there are many things that I and Robert agree upon; however in my humble opinion Robert relies too much on Conspiracy Theory as authenticated Conspiracy Fact. After setting the stage with the exchange between us I will proceed to demonstrate why I believe Robert’s assertion are unproven Conspiracy Theories with little concrete evidence in fact. Everything else is pure speculation.

John Houk Manuel Bush had many things I disagreed with, being a terrorist is not one of them. Robert, although it is a bit suspicious that Osama was dumped into the ocean, but I have heard enough SEALS to believe the freaking terrorist who will be credited for starting WWIII in the future that I am convinced it was NOT a body-double - That's just moronic conspiracy theory.

Robert Cold Hey John Houk ......you don't still believe that the navy dumped Osama into sea do you? It came out long ago that, even that was a lie. Where have you been? Even crewmen on board the ship have blown the whistle on that one. You really need to do investigative journalism if you are going to be in journalism. There are enough re-writers already. Too many in fact.

Robert here are the facts about bin Laden’s burial at sea:

Every source that claims he was not buried at sea have no proof except for the Obama Administration’s refusal to show photos or video. No proof means it’s speculation rather than an exposé!

On the other hand there are credible reasons for not showing photos and videos. All the reasons have to do with the politics of appeasement and Obama’s policies of stroking the Muslim mind so to avoid offenses – like that is working.

The only Conspiracy Theory that came close to a smoking gun was the notorious WikiLeaks hacking … err … I mean intercepted some emails from STRAFOR vice-president Fred Burton communicating this:

‘… believes the body was “bound for Dover, [Delaware] on [a] CIA plane” and then “onward to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Bethesda [Maryland],”an email says.’ (Leaked: Bin Laden not buried at sea, body moved on CIA plane to US; RT.com [meaning Russia Today as in Putin propaganda machine]; 3/6/12 09:29 – updated 3/6/12 14:28)

RT.com further reports that the WikiLeaks stolen email quotes Burton as saying:

"If body dumped at sea, which I doubt, the touch is very Adolph Eichman like. The Tribe did the same thing with the Nazi's ashes," Burton commented in another email. Eichman was one of the masterminds of the Holocaust by Nazi Germany. He was captured by Mossad agents in Argentina and, tried in Israel, found guilty and executed in 1962. His body was cremated and his ashes were scattered at sea over the Mediterranean.

"Eichmann was seen alive for many months on trial before being sentenced to death and executed. No one wanted a monument to him so they cremated him. But i dont know anyone who claimed he wasnt eicjhman [sic]. No comparison with suddenly burying him at sea without any chance to view him which i doubt happened [sic],"Stratfor CEO George Friedman replied.

"The US Govt needs to make body pics available like the MX's do, with OBL's pants pulled down, to shout down the lunatics like Alex Jones and Glenn Beck," Burton says in another message.

In another missive Burton says Osama’s body “is a crime scene and I don’t see the FBI nor DOJ letting that happen.”

WikiLeaks began publishing Stratfor emails in late February. The archive was obtained by the hacker group Anonymous, which successfully attacked one of the firm’s servers. More than 5 million emails were apparently stolen. [RT.com uses italic to indicate the email from Burton and STRATFOR CEO George Friedman.] (Ibid.)

Let’s talk about facts Robert. The RT.com story came out in 2011. STRATFOR debunks Putin propaganda with this info:

In February 2013, Fox News (1) reported that the hacker group Anonymous claimed to have obtained emails that were part of 2.7 million emails they downloaded from Stratfor Global Intelligence (a geopolitical intelligence firm providing strategic analysis and forecasting). (2)

The emails were then posted on WikiLeaks, but Stratfor claimed the hackers may have forged and altered many of the emails.

The official company response was that Anonymous were thieves and the company would not be victimized a second time by defending or explaining to the public about their stolen property of confidential emails.

The report also mentioned that members of the offshoot hacking group LulzSec were arrested by the FBI around the same time that the emails were leaked.

…

When the AFIP was closed in September 2011, it was moved to the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center (WRNMMC) in Washington, DC. According to the US National Library of Medicine, the AFIP was located at 6900 Georgia Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20306 as part of the Walter Reed complex. (7)

By the time Osama Bin Laden was killed, the AFIP was in the process of shutting down the Georgia Avenue location and moving across campus to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. It’s very unlikely if the body was being transported back to the US instead of being buried at sea that it would have been taken to the AFIP.

It’s pointed out on various online forums that Burton’s later emails state that he was mistaken and that Bin Laden had been buried at sea. It’s evident that these emails were simply one person’s speculations about what might have happened or what was going to happen. Yet, they became a centerpiece of a conspiracy theory about the disposal of the terrorist’s body.

The facts were distorted by the speculation of someone perceived as an authority and were taken as inside knowledge. This untruth was repeated over and over as a truth and soon became a commonly held belief. (Why Some Believe Bin Laden Was Not Dumped At Sea; By SallyPainter; Top Secret Writers; 12/9/14 10:00)

Now here is the political reason bin Laden was buried at sea rather than made public. When the SEALS gunned the old Islamic terrorist down, they were not finished taking out vengeance on the murdering creep’s corpse. Several SEALs took turns emptying their magazine into the already dead body. Essentially this made bin Laden unrecognizable. If photos were released I suspect most Americans would say, “I want a turn.” BUT Obama is a Leftist concerned about reelection in 2012 and concerned about the poor feelings of global Muslims that a dead Muslim got what he deserved. Here’s some Breitbart excerpts from 2014 (again way after Conspiracy Theories emerged):

Special operators involved in the mission to take out Osama bin Laden say the reason photos of his body weren’t released is because they would have shown a body riddled with bullet holes.

Carried in a report published by the Daily Mail, “the report from a website well known within the intelligence and armed services community claims that the sheer number of times Osama bin Laden was shot is the reason why the government never released photos.”

The “Special Operations Forces Situation Report” describes how “operator after operator took turns dumping magazines-worth of ammunition into bin Laden’s body.”

The report has raised questions about whether excessive force was shown to the man so singularly identified with the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and Shanksville, PA.

SEAL Team Six member Mark Bissonnette wrote about taking down bin Laden in No Easy Day. In the book, he described firing extra rounds into bin Laden’s body because the terror leader was “still twitching and convulsing” after the first shots. (REPORT: OSAMA BIN LADEN 'SHOT MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED TIMES'; By AWR HAWKINS; Breitbart.com – National Security; 3/14/14)

Even a Chechen newswire extremely friendly to Islam believes bin Laden was killed by SEALs but has a different reason for bin Laden’s kill photos not ever being shown. This sentiment is the current closest thing that gives a reason bin Laden wasn’t dumped in the sea (entire article):

When Obama announced the assassination by his thugs of Sheikh Osama bin Laden (may Allah have mercy on him), and then different versions of what happened began to appear in western media, people familiar with methods of democratic propaganda and disinformation immediately expressed their doubts about the trustworthiness of all these stories.

Too obvious was an American desire to present Sheikh Osama bin Laden in a negative light, to insult and humiliate his memory and say things just the opposite of what his character and background had been.

The American refusal to provide at least photos or video of the body of bin Laden and a dubious story of a burial in the sea, according to the canons of Islam, further strengthened the suspicion that the Americans were simply lying.

What did not help, either, were obviously staged scandals and leaks of "classified information" about a storm of the house of Osama bin Laden and his assassination, which were periodically distributed in the form of interviews, books and TV shows.

The last leak of disinformation were recent statements of an alleged former bodyguard of the Emir of al-Qaida, A certain Abdul Fattah said that bin Laden supposedly blew himself up with a martyr bomber's belt with which he never parted. That is why the Americans did not show his body, he claims.

However, the story is false and intended to hide the truth about bin Laden's martyrdom.

So what did really happen in the Pakistani city of Abbottabad in the night of May 2, 2011?

The question is answered by the wife of Sheikh Osama bin Laden, a native of Yemen, Amal al-Sada, who was with her ​​husband at the time of the storming of the house where he accepted martyrdom. (After the publication of this news, it was deleted by the administration of TwiMail, but the text is also posted on YouTube and has not been removed so far).

Amal al-Sada told the real story of the Sheikh's martyrdom, and revealed the secret of the disappearance of his body.

Here is her story:

- "When the attack started and soldiers began to descend from helicopters, the brothers, who were in the house at the time, entered into battle with them. The clash was heavy and intense.

American soldiers and the Pakistani army soldiers were those who attacked our house. They acted together.

There were so many of them. They quickly spread all over the yard and the house. A fierce battle followed.

At the time of the assault, Osama was in his room. He immediately took a gun and ran to the window. In the first few minutes of the shooting, a bullet hit him in his face, and he immediately accepted martyrdom, Insha'Allah.

And it was the grace of Allah for the Sheikh.

The Americans, after a while, entered the room and found Sheikh Osama martyred.

They took the body, carried him out of the house and loaded into a helicopter which belonged to American marines.

When the helicopter took off, while it was in the air, there was a very loud explosion. Probably the helicopter was shot down. It caught fire and exploded in the air. Parts of the helicopter fell to the ground. Everyone in the helicopter was killed, and their bodies were torn to pieces. The same happened to the Sheikh's body.

The Americans wanted to show the martyred Sheikh Osama around the world to demonstrate their victory, but Allah destroyed their plans.

Allah took away from them even the body of Osama bin Laden. They were left with nothing, so the Americans had to come up with a story about his burial in the sea. Allah protected Sheikh in life and protected him from his enemies after his death.

May Allah grant him martyrdom and Gardens of Firdaus in higher degrees of Paradise!"

***

In addition to this story, recall that some time after the events in Abbottabad, in August of 2011, the Americans leaked, through Fox TV, that in Afghanistan, the Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate had shot down a helicopter which belonged to "Team 6" of the American navy who participated in the storm of the house of Emir of al-Qaeda. 22 "SEALS" thugs were killed. Obama expressed his condolences to the families and friends of the marines.

It is possible that this leak was an attempt to cover the losses of Americans killed in the helicopter with the body of Osama bin Laden and the marines in Abbottabad on the night of May 2, 2011. (Americans lied. Sheik Osama bin Laden's wife tells truth about his martyrdom; By Department of Monitoring; KavcazCenter.com: 6/15/13 01:09)

Frankly I don’t place a lot of stock in Muslim propaganda than I do with Putin propaganda; however one thing is for sure, bin Laden was killed May 2, 2011, shortly after 1:00 am PKT by SEAL Team 6. The only dispute here is was he buried at sea or get blown up in a crashing helicopter.

Mr. Robert Cold, these are the facts.

Where is the Benghazi media feeding frenzy?

With only 5 days to go before the big election, we are finding out that the U.S. Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens repeatedly asked for additional security as he and his team felt unsafe in a country that was going through a civil war and in an area where Al Qaeda knowingly operated.  We know that their requests were denied. 

As the New York Post points out, sources on the ground in Libya say they pleaded for support during the attack on the Benghazi consulate that led to the deaths of four Americans. They were allegedly told twice to "stand down." Worse, there are suggestions that significant military resources were available to counterattack, but requests for help were denied.

If true, the White House's concerted effort to blame the attack on a video crumbles, as do several other fraudulent claims. Yet, last Friday, the president boasted, "The minute I found out what was happening" in Benghazi, he ordered that everything possible be done to protect our personnel. That's either untrue, or he's being disobeyed on grave matters.

Shockingly, the media doesn't see this as news worthy and has determined that this is not relevant information for someone that wants to continue to be our Commander in Chief! 

Yet, In 2000, a Democratic operative orchestrated an "October surprise" attack on George W. Bush, revealing that 24 years earlier, he'd been arrested for drunken driving. The media went into a feeding frenzy and it dominated the headlines. 

It is amazing the lengths that the liberal media will go to shamelessly protect their candidate. One thing is very clear, we must take it upon ourselves to cover the story that the media is ignoring and make sure that every voter in critical swing-states sees our 'Fire Obama' ad that makes the case of what a bad job President Obama has done as our Commander in Chief.  
The Romney/Ryan campaign needs your immediate support to bring these issues to light for voters since the mainstream media has largely ignored them.

Watch our new 'Fire Obama' ad here and make a donation to enable us to air it in critical swing-states that Romney needs help in

As more details emerge as to what actually transpired when terrorists attacked  our consulate in Benghazi and murdered U.S. Ambassador Stevens, it is becoming increasingly clear that President Obama is not fit to be Commander-in-Chief.  The media is trying to bury this story so it will be up to us to shed light on it!
For the security and strength of our military, please support our 'Fire Obama' ad campaign.  We are running our ad in critical-swing states to impress upon voters how much of a disaster the Obama administration has been when it come to national security.

CAMPAIGN TO FIRE OBAMA

Months ago, national security was completely off the radar, the race was 100% about jobs and the economy. But as often times happens, we forget about how important national security is until another tragedy puts it right front and center again.

For Obama, it is a huge failure that ought to cost him the election!  He isn't fit to command our troops or keep our country safe!  Playing politics with our national security is wrong and dangerous to American security and the lives of our people overseas. It's time we put a stop to it and Fire Obama this November 6th!
.Everyone who steps up and makes a contribution of $100 or more will be listed on our Wall of Great Patriots below to show our appreciation.  We realize that these are tough times, so if you can't afford the $100 challenge, every dollar helps!  Who will be the next to join the list in standing up for our troops?

AMERICA IS NOT SAFE UNDER OBAMA

With the events of the last month in Egypt, Libya and continuing in Syria and Iran we could no longer sit idly by while our military and national security is eroded by our Commander-in-Chief.  We can't sit on the sidelines while this administration apologizes to our enemies for our freedom of speech, refuses to stand with our ally Israel, and continues to "lead from behind."

The Romney/Ryan campaign has made this race a dead heat and needs our help by airing this powerful ad in the critical swing-states where they are battling for their political lives.

America has and always will lead from the front and should not apologize for our strength or influence in the world.  Obama sought to "reset" relations with the Muslim world, with Russia, with China, but this stance has emboldened those who wish to see our influence recede and worried those allies that count on the USA to be a beacon of light and hope in a dark world.

With the help of great patriots like yourself, we have produced a powerful ad that makes clear the difference between an America led by President Obama and his apologists or an America led by a leader that knows peace comes through strength. We are ready to reveal the ad but we need fund to run in critical swing-states! Please make a donation today!

Liberal Media are accessories to Benghazi coverup

By L. Brent Bozell III, Founder and President

Email Sent: November 1, 2012 8:33 PM

Sent by Media Research Council

For the sixth night in a row, ABC World News, CBS Evening News, and NBC Nightly News refused to give one single second of coverage to a Fox News report that the Obama Administration denied help to those attacked and killed by terrorists at the US consulate in Benghazi on September 11.

According to a Media Research Center analysis, ABC, CBS, and NBC have failed to cover this devastating story - not to confirm it, not to knock it down, and never mind do their own investigation. The story broke last Friday, long before Hurricane Sandy swamped the news cycle.

The story broke Tuesday night on CBS Evening News. Since then, according to a Media Research Center analysis, ABC has almost completely refused to report the email evidence, giving it a scant 25 seconds on Good Morning America and 20 seconds on World News yesterday.

Further, neither The Washington Post nor The New York Times has committed a single inch of their newspapers to a news story about this report.

According to Fox News, "sources claim officers at the nearby CIA annex in Benghazi were twice told to stand down when they requested to help those at the consulate.

They later ignored those orders. Fox News was also told that a subsequent request for back-up when the annex came under attack was denied as well.”

In response, I just released the following public statement.

"Every other broadcast news network has produced at least one major story on the release of emails related to the attack in Benghazi that killed our ambassador and three other brave Americans. While not enough, in some cases, it's something. From ABC News, it's nothing.

"The liberal ‘news' media's refusal to cover this story exposes how corrupt they have become.

Four Americans died in Libya in a coordinated terrorist attack on the anniversary of 9/11.

The Obama Administration has been caught in a maze of falsehoods. This reeks of a cover-up. This scandal could and would derail the Obama re-election efforts. ABC, CBS, NBC, The Washington Post, and The New York Times are so vested in the re-election of Barack Obama that they are deliberately spiking this huge story. It's sickening.

How big is this story? Bigger than Watergate. No one was killed in that burglary, and no one covered up the truth about the deaths of four brave Americans.

"Now there are rumblings that one or more of these so-called news networks have emails from the National Security Advisor's office telling a counter-terrorism unit to stand down. If that's true, they must tell the American people what they know, and how long they've known it. And if it isn't true, then the networks need to say so. Their silence is deafening.

"The Obama administration's cover-up of their deceitful response to the Benghazi terrorist attack is without a doubt the biggest political news story of 2012. The American people have a right to know what really happened before they cast their ballots on Election Day.

"If ABC, CBS, NBC, The Washington Post, and The New York Times refuse to ask the tough questions, then they no longer serve any purpose. And if they're sitting on evidence to help Obama win re-election, they're as guilty in this cover-up as is the administration.”

Sincerely,

L. Brent Bozell III

Contents of Classified State Department cable illustrate why Huma Abedin should not be Hillary’s Deputy Chief of Staff

By Shoebat Foundation 

NOVEMBER 1, 2012

WalidSboebat.com

Fox News reporter Catherine Herridge has obtained a classified cable sent by Ambassador Christopher Stevens directly to “the office” of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on August 16th, just a few weeks prior to the attack in Benghazi. In this interview with Greta Van Susteren, Herridge pulls no punches and says flatly that “the State Department has culpability” in the attack and that the cable serves as “the smoking gun warning” because of its specificity, which included naming Al-Qaeda and Ansar Al-Sharia (the group that claimed responsibility) specifically.

Take note, beginning at about the 1:50 mark. Greta asks Herridge for some specificity about who received the letter. Though Herridge doesn’t give names, she provides detailed information about where it went after revealing that Christopher Stevens is the one who signed it:

“(the cable was) copied to her (Hillary) and then it routes out, in this case, probably typically to diplomatic security, their near east Asia desk and others but it is specifically addressed to her office.”

Specifically. addressed. to. Hillary’s. office.

Here’s the video (h/t Right Scoop):

VIDEO: Herridge – Van Susteren Interview

Ok, so it was “route(d)” out of Hillary’s office to an appropriate under secretary / bureau head tasked with heeding the very specific pleas of our ambassador. Yet, no one has been disciplined for not heeding what amounts to a distress signal, an S.O.S., a cry for help.

Why?

When someone discusses “Hillary Clinton’s office” does that include her Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin? Did Abedin see any of these cables at any time? Based on her background, that is an extremely relevant question that needs to be answered.

We are not alleging that Abedin saw the cable or had anything to do with it not being acted on. However, her potential access to and influence with Secretary Clinton in such situations, coupled with her familial connections / conflicts of interest when it comes to the Muslim Brotherhood, demonstrate perfectly why she should have been disqualified from holding the position she now holds.

Here is an extremely important point to consider. Huma Abedin’s parents were put in charge of the Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs (IMMA) by a representative of the founder of the IMMA – Abdullah Omar Naseef. Naseef also has a history of being an al-Qaeda financier. Huma herself served on the IMMA Board WITH NASEEF from at least 1996 – 2003 and continued to serve on IMMA’s Board until 2008 / 2009, when she assumed her current role.

Based on these unassailable facts, should someone with Abedin’s background be working in Hillary’s “office”, especially when the reach of that office extends to danger spots for Americans in Muslim lands?

Again, we are in no way saying that Abedin had any knowledge of this cable whatsoever but we are saying that the circumstances leading up to the attack on the consulate, as well as who Stevens viewed as a threat (Al-Qaeda and Ansar Al-Sharia), illustrates perfectly why someone with Abedin’s background should not be put in the position. Such a person’s associations matter, not because of guilt or innocence but because of potential conflicts of interest in matters of allegiance.

Here is a compelling interview between Fox News Channel’s Bill Hemmer and Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC), member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. This interview was approximately twelve hours prior to Herridge’s interview with Greta but note how angry Gowdy is. While he is clearly pointing directly to the White House, he is also wanting answers from the State Department:

VIDEO: Diplomatic Cable Warns of Benghazi Security Concerns Before Terror Attack

Left To Die!

By Justin O. Smith

November 1, 2012 4:00pm

Facebook Notes

More than negligence and incompetence, the murders of four Americans at Benghazi on 9/11 were the direct result of dereliction of duty by President Obama, Secretary of State Clinton and Secretary of Defense Panetta, and this case will immortalize forever in the annals of infamy the feckless, ineffectual, weak and cowardly example of "leadership" that Americans yoked themselves with in 2008; twice after the initial "critic"/ Critical Incident Flash, the White House received requests for military assistance during the attack, and twice they denied those requests. A full explanation is owed America concerning these decisions, especially in light of the fact that the Obama administration viewed the attack through a drone camera in real time.

The intricacy of the Ansar terrorist attack proves that this entire tragic episode was a pre-planned attack. They had positioned blocking and kill or capture teams between the CIA Annex and the U.S. Consulate. They had even thought ahead and positioned an ambush to surprise any U.S. "quick response" teams that might arrive, and they had strategically positioned mortars within range of the Annex. Something this intricate is not built from a "spontaneous protest".

Twenty minutes into the attack on the U.S. Consulate at 4:05pm Washington time - 10:05pm Benghazi time, the State Department's regional office reported that the Consulate was under attack and that Ambassador Stevens was supposedly safe with the 17th of February militia providing security support, but we now know they deserted once the battle escalated; "Update 1" at 4:54 Washington time reported the firing had stopped and a "response team" was at the site attempting to locate missing personnel.

The "response team" consisted of Tyrone Woods and Glenn Dogherty who disobeyed their superior's orders to "stand down" when they heard the first shots at 9:40pm. They made approximately a one mile run from the CIA Annex to the Consulate, and upon arriving the firing lull rapidly turned into a fierce firefight to evacuate approximately 35 employees to the CIA Annex and simply survive. They eventually did arrive at the Annex with the body of Sean Smith, killed early in the attack, but Ambassador Stevens had been separated from them; these men were in Libya under CIA contract to track down surface to air missiles used by the islamofascist groups, and they were under no obligation to assist, defend or protect Ambassador Stevens, and yet, they ran headlong into danger!

An hour after the attack, Obama, Panetta and VP Biden met in the Oval Office, and soon after military assets were being moved: Eight from Special Operations were sent from Tripoli, a Fleet Anti-terrorism Security Team (FAST) of Marines from Rota, Spain was sent to guard the Tripoli U.S. Embassy, F-16s and Apache helicopters never left Aviano Airbase in Italy, and two U.S. Navy destroyers already in the Mediterranean were positioned off the Libyan coast but left dormant.

Pathetic is the only way to describe the administration's assertion that they needed the Libyan government's permission to enter Libya's airspace. What government?... the militias were still running everything... And the U.S. doesn't ask "mother, may I" before crossing a border to save their own. What bravery our fighting men showed during WWII, Korea and Vietnam when the code was "leave no man behind," and now what cowardice is apparent within this despicable Obama administration!

Lt Col Tony Schaffer (Retired Army) explains that the U.S. planned the invasion of Grenada in 1983 in six hours, and he added, "We could have had a strike team on the ground in Benghazi in thirty minutes or less to protect, assist and extract our personnel under attack ... the video (from Benghazi) is damning, and it needs to get out for the public to see."

Former CIA Officer Gary Burston asserted, "President Obama is a master of trying to deflect and change the subject... personnel in Benghazi must have been screaming for help. There were options for the administration to help and intervene. They could have sent an AC 130 Talon with computerized machine guns. All it would have taken is one pass. It would have beaten the attackers back. Then they could have sent in a Quick Reaction Force." Several Tier 1 teams were within an hour of the attack site, and they would have made an enormous difference in the fighting that spanned eight hours.

Incredible heroism was displayed by Woods and Dogherty as they fought to save the Consulate staff members during a second wave of attacks. Between the initial firefight at the Consulate and the assault on the Annex, they fought for over six hours, and, along with others, they were able to withstand against over 200 Ansar al-Shariah/ Islamic Maghreb terrorists, while also taking heavy fire from RPGs, mortars and a 23mm anti-aircraft weapon!

At 4:00am... six hours and twenty minutes after the initial attack... former Navy SEALs Glenn A. Dogherty and Tyrone S. Woods were killed at the CIA Annex by a mortar round. Their machine gun was covered in blood, and gives testimony that they fought on after being wounded.

Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham stated, "It is disappointing to hear that our national command authorities failed to reinforce the Consulate with timely air assets, and that a consulate located in one of the most dangerous regions in the world was so unsecured."

Just think how different the outcome would have been had the Consulate been protected by just one platoon of Marines, all sniper trained. Obama had actionable intelligence explicitly showing a high probability of an imminent attack, but a year ago he failed to devote resources to secure the facility. He had no plan for such a situation as this, when our people were depending on a rapid response. And... Obama's failures and dereliction of duty as Commander-in-Chief caused four good, decent American Patriots to lose their lives!

Through the lens of the enigma of war the truth has manifested itself through the ugliness, stupidity and cowardice of Obama, Clinton, Panetta and others in the administration who had real time images of Americans facing slaughter: and, with numerous military assets nearby, they decided to sit safely in the White House Situation Room and leave these fine Americans in the lurch, while revealing their strength of conviction and principles, Glenn A. Dogherty and Tyrone S. Woods' distinguished and brilliant actions illustrated the best of  military tradition and the American spirit, as they defended U.S. interests, placed America ahead of self and died with honor so others would live! We will not let their courage be hidden or their sacrifice diminished... We will not forget!
