Gun running in Benghazi

GATEWAY PUNDIT

[Dr. Mark Christian, an obstetrician/gynecologist by profession, was destined to become a Sunni religious leader in Egypt. Mark was groomed from boyhood to become an influential leader of the Muslim faith. He later converted to Christianity and moved to America. Mark now hopes to educate a sleeping American public to the actuality of Islamic intention in this country.]

Mideast Libya Militant Backlash

Dr. Mark Christian from the Global Faith Institute sent The Gateway Pundit his account of the Benghazi attack on September 11, 2012:

Syrian president Bashar el Assad, Russia, Iran, and Hezbollah of Lebanon are fully responsible for the death of United States Ambassador Christopher Stevens. President Obama has known this fact since the minute he first learned about the attack.

Stevens, from his Benghazi base, was stockpiling weapons – and resourcing the expert fighters who could use them – to topple Assad’s rule in Syria. On September 11, 2012, Assad powerfully punched back, raiding the Benghazi compound which housed the armament for his own destruction. Though Assad’s reprisal resulted in the loss of four American lives, including Stevens, he forcefully conveyed that he would not be thrown out of the ring.

The Syrian uprising is not a simple “the good guys vs. the bad guys” action-packed conflict. While there is plenty of action, there are no good guys. There are, however, two opponents who have been duking it out for hundreds of years, the Sunnis and the Shiites. In the Sunni corner, we have U.S. President Barack Obama, championed primarily by Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Egypt. Their combatants, the Shiites, include Syria, Iran, and Hezbollah – the Lebanese militia controlled by Iran and Syria.

Under President Barack Obama’s direction in the 2011 Arab Spring, the Sunnis had already ousted evil dictators from countries such as Egypt, Tunisia, and Libya. It appeared to be pro-democracy freedom-fighting at its finest. It wasn’t. The overthrown governments were quickly replaced with Muslim-Brotherhood-aligned, Sunni Islamic theocracies. And the next country on the list for overthrow was Syria. But unlike the easier targets of Mubarek, Ben Ali, and Gaddafi, Shiite Syrian leader Bashar Assad has the powerful allies of Iran, Hezbollah, and Russia.

The Assad regime was fully aware of the shrouded activity in Benghazi, fully aware that Ambassador Christopher Stevens, the man credited for the assassination of Gaddafi, was much more than an ambassador. Though serving in Tripoli as the U.S. Ambassador to transition a tribal Libya to Sunni Islamic rule, Stevens covertly used Benghazi as his base of operation for the next phase of Arab Spring: overthrowing Assad in Syria. From his Benghazi compound Stevens stored and supplied weapons for thousands of hired, rebel fighters – many of which were al-Qaeda – headed to Syria.

In August, 2012, team Sunni provoked team Shiite on their home turf in Tehran at the Non-Alignment Movement Summit. After making several diplomatic attempts to end the illicit smuggling of guns and gunners by Obama and the Sunnis into Syria, Iran became insulted when Egyptian President Morsi demanded removal of Syrian President Assad. Following this ultimatum, Morsi arrogantly snubbed the fundamental Shiite beliefs held by Iranian President Ahmadinejad and spiritual leader, Ayatollah Khamenei. This was the last straw.

The threatened Shiites forcefully and strategically retaliated by attacking the Benghazi compound. Why? They were seeking to expose the Sunni agenda of President Barack Obama to the American electorate during Obama’s re-election campaign, Iran was confident that this bold retribution would prevent Obama’s second presidential term, and squash the Sunni initiative in Syria.

On the morning of September 11, 2012, Christopher Stevens and his aide, Sean Smith, were meeting at the Benghazi headquarters with Turkish Consul General, Ali Sait Akin, and his associates. Turkey was the staging ground through which the Syria-bound guns and rebels were smuggled. Thirty-four additional Syrian opposition supporters were also in attendance. Shortly after Mr. Akin & Co. made a substantial “financial contribution” and left, the compound was struck by a highly-organized assault by Hezbollah fighters. The eyes of the Middle East, as well as any online observer of Libyan and Middle Eastern press, watched the brazen attack on Benghazi…

…If Americans knew what really happened, if the mainstream media uncovered and exposed Obama and his Sunni agenda, Obama would not be the current American president, but a prosecuted American citizen. If his orchestration and support of Arab Spring, including Syria, was revealed, President Obama, who has hidden much more than Benghazi from the American people, would finally be held accountable for his actions. If it became public knowledge that – while Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was ignoring the body of her American Ambassador Christopher Stevens, she was ordering that all of Stevens’ classified information in Tripoli be destroyed – then Ms. Clinton’s presidential aspirations might be imprisoned. And the families of Stevens, Smith, Woods, and Doherty would definitively know what difference it does make when the daylight of truth shines on the darkness of night.

Eye-witnesses, including the thirty-four various nationals who participated in Stevens’ meeting on the morning of September 11, 2012, could provide testimony exponentially more illuminating than the scripted smoke of the one-day Congressional performance of Benghazi whistle blowers. However, their interest in exposing the truth, and their whereabouts, is extremely unlikely since they were undoubtedly complicit with the Sunni scheme.

But Benghazi was just the beginning. Assad and his gang continue to target countries supporting the Syrian uprising.
Were these attacks just isolated events or part of a coordinated plan?
*On April 15, 2013, two bombs exploded during the Boston Marathon in America.
*Two Iranian-linked terrorists were apprehended just days following the Boston bombing when their plan to derail a Canadian passenger train in Toronto was thwarted.
*A car bomb injured two guards at the French Embassy in Tripoli on April 23, 2013; France financially supported the Syrian opposition.
*British Prime Minister Cameron met with Russian President Putin on May 10, 2013, and with President Obama on May 13, 2013. On May 22, 2013, a British soldier was publically beheaded by terrorists.
*Dozens are killed from a car bomb near the Syrian border in Reyhanli, Turkey on May 11, 2013.
*President Obama and Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan meet on May 16, 2013 followed by violent riots in Istanbul, where bombings as recent as June 5, 2013 have occurred.

As tensions between Israel and Syria intensify, as Syria is purported to have received its first shipment of $300 anti-aircraft missiles from Russia, all the key players are keenly conscious that an attack against Syria, the dominant subject of the upcoming Geneva talks, is an attack against Russia. The stakes are shockingly high, and there is no indication of either faction, Sunni or Shiite, backing down. Meanwhile, as the controlled and calculated fires of IRS and the Associated Press capture the American attention, keeping them distracted and clueless, a catastrophic wildfire awaits. World War III could readily ignite, and the Benghazi blazes were simply the match.

    Unmasking the embassy threat

    I haven’t listened to the radio show yet but I will. The article makes a lot of sense to me. I have not read hagman but a lot of what he is saying appears to coincide with my own speculations. My concern now is for Israel I believe Israel was being wooed into this “grand deal” that I don’t fully know but really sense the clues. I believe Israel has smartly been sitting on the fence as much as possible. I think their plan has run into trouble and might be starting to unravel. In order to save it I believe they are trying to get Israel in on the war and this may be the source of the recent leaks. I dont think they will move the jihadis to Iran if they cant first handle the proxies. This looks like a try to retrieve success and if they fail, and begin to back off their plan, my biggest fear is that they will have brought in all the jihadis and will do a turnaround and refocus the jihdis on Israel to provoke the war(if hagmans scenario is accurate) or just as a way to restore ties with Iran and refocus on the common scapegoat. this has happened before. I agree that something is up with this alert, but what? Hagman doesn’t give clues that he knows either. Unless it is a prep for a big attack on assad or Iran? what do you think?

    Unmasking the embassy threat

    It is vital to understand that the embassy closures are a signal of the rapidly escalated intervention in the region by the US. It is a modern day equivalent to the Bay of Pigs, except Barack Hussein Obama is no John F. Kennedy. Those old enough might recall that the CIA trained and inserted a group of “freedom fighters” into Cuba to oust Castro. Exactly like the rebels in Syria, those fighters could never overthrow Castro without direct U.S. military intervention and assistance. The situation is exactly the same in Syria today.

    The difference is that Kennedy saw the plan for exactly what it was – a globalist plan not to defeat communism, but to engage us in a larger war to the benefit of the globalists and the military-industrial complex. He refused to take the bait and in so doing, bought the world time by avoiding World War III.

    Unlike Kennedy who became his own man while in office, Obama continues the globalist agenda by supporting the CIA trained and backed anti-Assad rebels, and is now leading us to the brink of World War III.

    To say that the threat to our embassies is from some nebulous threat by al Qaeda is like saying that the group at the Bay of Pigs were just a bunch of Cuban locals. Nothing that we are being told even remotely approaches the truth, yet few seem to grasp the seriousness of what is unfolding before our very eyes.

    Our involvement in the Middle East and North Africa is so large that it would be difficult not to telegraph our actions in advance. Therefore, is it possible that the unspecified al Qaeda threat is actually a cover story for some anticipated action in the region?

    We are watching brinkmanship at multiple levels on a global chess board. We have done much to destabilize whatever relative peace might have existed in the Middle East through our actions at the hands of our globalist power brokers. Russia, Iran, Syria and China are not amused, and are not looking the other way. The time clock for the anti-Assad rebels is quickly running out. This administration and every elected official who has signed on to do the work of the Saudis and their handlers have painted us into a corner from which there is little hope for escape. We cannot trust anything we are being told, and nothing we are being told even remotely approaches the truth.

    We are seeing the beginnings of the transformation from a cold war to a hot war at the nation-state level. We are about to see a trigger event, after which nothing will be the same.

    Why Did Al-Qaeda-Linked Group Hit Turkish Embassy in Somalia?

    One senior Turkish Cabinet member told me that Turkey is also in contact with al-Shabaab and other insurgent groups in order to encourage reconciliation among disparate groups in Somalia. For example, Turkish recovery and reconstruction efforts are not limited just to areas controlled by the government but also extend to other areas in order to win over the hearts and minds of most Somalis. He said a smear campaign has been launched there by some powers against Turkish efforts but he affirmed the Turkish commitment, saying the negative campaigning will not deter them from actively pursuing engagement with Somalia. While he did not state so outright, he implied that Iran tops the list of those spreading black propaganda against Turkey in the Horn of Africa, an unexpected place where Turkey and Iran vie for influence.

    Seems Turkey could have set up the attack????

    evidence is a bit slim, erdogna acutally seems to be a mouth with no bite. So many were at the scene plus the US was employing jihadis as security. I am interested in the details of the stand down orders if accurate because that would indicate whether it was an internal operation or external. One thing for sure, obama is going through a lot to cover it up and stop testifying.

  16. A spy who tried to scale Kremlin wall
    By M K Bhadrakumar
    Bandar served as the Saudi ambassador in Washington for 22 years at a stretch and proved invaluable as interlocutor for successive American presidents so much so that he received the protection of the US Secret Service as America’s national security asset, something strange in diplomatic history. To be sure, last weekend’s appointment of Bandar as the spy chief signifies that Abdullah has put him on the driving seat to steer the Saudi-US juggernaut that hopes to roll down the road to Damascus, the present road blocks notwithstanding.

    After all, Bandar could do an exceptional job in Afghanistan in the 1980s to ensure that the Mujahideen were kept supplied with a steady flow of funds or weapons to bleed the Soviet Red Army, while his brother-in-law, Prince Turkei, who held charge of Saudi intelligence, liaised with the dangerous folks who later morphed into the al-Qaeda……..

  18. Op-Ed: Benghazi Leads to Iran, Not Al Qaeda]

    I raised this same possibility of the attack on Benghazi being from syria, iran or russia a few months ago in retaliation for the gun running to syria. However, the langfan op-ed misses important relevant points regarding the motivation for the cover up

    Is the fact that some of the US weapons may have accidentally fallen into al Qaeda’s hands that terrible? No. Not at all.

    langfan is absurd to keep calling this accidental. Furthermore, he understates grossly the impact of the administration colluding with saudi arabia to supply, train and arm al Qaeda mercenaries in syria. In any thinking mind a question would have to be asked: If the US is working with Saudi funding, training, arming al qaeda in the syrian operation now and the US was working with saudi funding, training and arming jihadis in the 80’s in afhanistan why should it be assumed that this was not the case in the 1990’s and 2000’s when al qaeda attacked the WTC, etc. and why wouldn’t it be working in boston. The point is that this disclosure brings into question the whole narrative regarding al qaeda being an enemy of the US. how can it be an enemy if the US, saudi and jihdis have been working together for at least 4 decades. Only a fool would believe that they turned against the uS in the 90’s and are now with the US again. AQ and other assorted jihadis are tools operated by the saudis/GCC who have worked closely with US interests, both overt and covert. That is a very big deal but it is likely that americans just wont get it or ask that question.

  19. But Benghazi was just the beginning. Assad and his gang continue to target countries supporting the Syrian uprising.
    Were these attacks just isolated events or part of a coordinated plan?
    *On April 15, 2013, two bombs exploded during the Boston Marathon in America.
    *Two Iranian-linked terrorists were apprehended just days following the Boston bombing when their plan to derail a Canadian passenger train in Toronto was thwarted.
    *A car bomb injured two guards at the French Embassy in Tripoli on April 23, 2013; France financially supported the Syrian opposition.
    *British Prime Minister Cameron met with Russian President Putin on May 10, 2013, and with President Obama on May 13, 2013. On May 22, 2013, a British soldier was publically beheaded by terrorists.
    *Dozens are killed from a car bomb near the Syrian border in Reyhanli, Turkey on May 11, 2013.
    *President Obama and Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan meet on May 16, 2013 followed by violent riots in Istanbul, where bombings as recent as June 5, 2013 have occurred.

    What these attacks have in common is simply the usual muslim act of waging jihad. One doesn’t need to manufacture any conspiracy theory to explain typical muslim behavior. There’s no mystery here.

    Having said that, I do believe the administration was gunrunning to Syria.

  21. There is one little detail aired by the “alternative” media a few days after the Benghazi attack that explained that the arms running and the recruiting of anti-Gadaffi forces in Lybia started already in 2007. Note the year. The later-to-become-ambassador-Stevens was one of the chiefs of the operation. He became ambassador only in 2011. The Benghazi compound was always a CIA site.

  22. The more we learn the worse the picture grows. In the midst of all this is the useless and mindless American Jewish establishment. Notice that our Jewish elites do not demand the truth from their beloved leader Obama. These Jewish morons are elated with Obama and Kerry convening another “peace conference” to create another Arab terror state inside Israel’s heartland.
