Truest statement of the week II

The top Democrat on the Select Committee is Representative Elijah Cummings from Maryland, who in a moment of selective outrage, exclaimed to rousing applause from the audience, “We’re better than that! We are so much better! We’re a better country! We’re better than using taxpayer dollars to try to destroy a campaign! That’s not what America is all about!” But, apparently, using taxpayer dollars to destroy one country and literally wipe another country off the map – that’s OK, I guess. Because, at the time of the televised hearings, U.S. Embassy in Libya personnel weren’t even in Libya! They’re operating from Malta, after President Obama’s policy to destroy Libya was so effective. How much questioning about that took place in the eleven-hour hearing?
Another question that should have been addressed is, “What is the extent to which US policy in the aftermath of the US war against Libya directly led to the need for US personnel to evacuate the Embassy premises in Tripoli before it was taken over by rampant Libyans with guns?” What was really going on at the CIA compound at the Benghazi Consulate? Why did so many Libyans have so many weapons, including portable shoulder-fired missiles and Toyota trucks? After destroying Libya, the US policy was to use that “success” to roll right into Syria for that country’s destruction according to: Oded Yinon’s Plan, published in the World Zionist Organization’s KivunimJournal, that was a strategy for Israel to pursue in the 1980s; The Institute for Strategic and Political Studies’ “A Clean Break” strategy for Israel to pursue in the 1990s; the Pentagon’s General Ralph Peters “Blood Borders” map, and General Wesley Clark’s revelations about the Pentagon’s plans to overthrow governments in “seven countries in five years.” More than likely, the US Embassy personnel in Benghazi were murdered with the very same weapons that the US had transferred to the Libyans to carry out the serial regime change required by these various strategies that benefit Israel.
