THE LATEST SPIN AND TIMELINE ON THE BENGHAZI ATTACK WAS JUST RELEASED BY THE STATE DEPARTMENT…..GEEZ…IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FILM…..RSK
“We’ve blunted the Taliban’s momentum in Afghanistan,” President Barack Hussein Obama said in his acceptance speech at the Democrat National Convention Sept. 6. “Al Qaida is on the path to defeat and Osama bin Laden is dead.”
Five days later, on 9/11/2012, Islamists murdered our ambassador to Libya and three other Americans and destroyed our consulate in Benghazi. In an attack on our embassy in Cairo the same day, the mob pulled down the American flag, burned it, and raised the black flag of al Qaida on the embassy flagstaff.
Al Qaida also was behind attacks on our embassy in Yemen Sept. 13, and Tunisia Sept. 14, said Thomas Joscelyn of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Some “path to defeat.”
Al Qaida is back in Afghanistan and is teaming up with the Taliban, said CBS correspondent Lara Logan. Taliban guerrillas destroyed eight Marine Harrier jump jets Sept. 14, our largest loss of warplanes since the Vietnam war. Joint operations were halted temporarily after two British and four American soldiers were killed by their Afghan “allies.” Afghan soldiers killed two more Americans after joint operations resumed last week.
“We’re willing to sacrifice a lot for this campaign. But we’re not willing to be murdered for it,” Gen. John Allen, the U.S. commander, told Ms. Logan in an interview broadcast Sept. 30.
The Taliban is stronger than ever, the Pentagon told Congress in a report in April. American officials have written off hope of battering the Taliban into accepting a peace deal, a “cornerstone” of Obama administration policy, the New York Times reported Oct. 1.
