The "Watergate" scandal in the 1970's that caused President Richard Nixon
to resign was based upon a White House driven break in of the Democratic
National Committee offices at the Watergate Hotel in Washington, DC. This was
heavily reported by the media who made dramatic and constant daily news out of
it. Many called for his impeachment, eventually President Nixon resigned because
of it.
Benghazi is at least 100 times worse. Following are the reasons why:
* The US Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, in a dangerous and volatile region
of the world, was left under protected demonstrating incompetence and even
malfeasance. There were also forewarnings with attacks on other consulates and
even that of the US.
* This was further accentuated by the fact that it was under protected on
September 11, 2012 placing the lives of our US Ambassador, Christopher Stevens,
and other US personnel in jeopardy. There should have been highlighted concern
about the date, September 11.
* When the attack on the Consulate took place it was known at the time that
this was a planned and orchestrated terrorist act, by terrorist networks linked
to Al-Qaeda.
* A US Embassy or Consulate is considered sovereign US territory. This was,
in effect, an attack on the United States. It was extremely serious.
* President Obama chose for US military forces in the region to "stand
down" and not try to help save the lives of our Ambassador and other US
personnel. As a result our Ambassador, Christopher Stevens, information officer
Sean Smith, and former Navy Seals, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty were murdered.
Yes, they were real people and have names! This failure of action violated all
principles of always protecting American citizens, particularly those
representing our government.
* It is reported that while this attack was under way, President Obama went
to bed to prepare to attend for a fundraiser in Chicago the next morning, which
he did attend.
* Worried about the upcoming election and President Obama's political
narrative that we had Al-Qaeda on the run and essentially rendered ineffective,
a knowingly false story was created by the White House. This story was that the
attack on our Consulate was a spontaneous action caused by a video that was
deemed insulting to Muslims. This false story was given entirely for political
purposes in order to help ensure President Obama's re-election.
* Susan Rice, the US Ambassador to the United Nations was then sent out to
5 major television network programs to deliver this false story about the video
being the cause. President Obama, himself, along with Secretary of State,
Hillary Clinton, Press Secretary Jay Carney and many others in the
administration also delivered this knowingly false story. This false story was
even told to the families of the dead US personnel when their bodies were
returned to the US.
* The whole premise of the false You Tube video story is in itself
shocking. What it infers is that terrorism and murder were justified by the
video. It was the videos fault and it originator as the reason that caused the
terrorist acts and murder. Yet Christianity and Judaism both receive nearly
daily insults and that is apparently OK.
* To this day it has been made worse by a massive cover up on what really
happened. Documents have been withheld, with obfuscation and lies taking place
before congressional committees.
Unlike Watergate, the media has remained essentially silent, complicit with
the cover up. Yet Benghazi is 100 times worse.
