State Department had 48 Hour Notice About Attack?
Foreign press doing what our disgraceful press won't

Quote:According to senior diplomatic sources, the US State Department had credible information 48 hours before mobs charged the consulate in Benghazi, and the embassy in Cairo, that American missions may be targeted, but no warnings were given for diplomats to go on high alert and "lockdown", under which movement is severely restricted.

Can we stop talking about what Romney said yet?

The media has decided we shouldn't talk about it. It will still be under investigation till after the election. Just like how even after being held in Contempt of Congress, Holder won't have to account for the death of Brian Terry till after the election. We just can't know the truth. Too incendiary to Obama's re-election.

That's the consequence of liberalism.

That makes me wonder who's really pulling the strings. It's not like Romney is trying to win this thing.

Anne Patterson, the Ambassador to Egypt is notorious for being lax on Security. She was Ambassador to Pakistan a couple of years ago when her Security Procedures allowed a Suicide Bomber to get past the first perimeter.

In Cairo she wouldn't let the Marines carry live ammo, and it took an Order from Washington to fire bean bags and rubber bullets at anyone that climbed the wall.

Patterson left Cairo this morning and is the way back to Washington.

Maybe yes...maybe no. But we really need to wait a little bit for all the information to be known. We should learn from Mitt not to jump the gun here.

The story provides no concrete proof of anything other than "senior diplomatic sources". And we don't know what the information was. Was it that these protests of the movie were going to happen or was it that the actual coordinated attack on the consulate and murder of Stevens was going to take place?

We're learning more and more almost hourly that these were likely two totally separate events.

Granted it's not, "Hey someone who worked with Romney at Bain called me and said he hadn't paid taxes in 10 years." but not all information can be that concrete unfortunately.

Every story I've read to date says the two attacks were coordinated. Where are you hearing different. The Post, CBS, ABC among others are all reporting the the belief of the intelligence community they were coordinated.

You clowns sure do lie a lot.

Quote:But on Thursday, three U.S. officials told CNN that they have seen no evidence the attack was premeditated.

Quote:Meanwhile, Shawn Turner, director of communications for U.S. National Intelligence, denied news reports that American officials had been warned of a possible attack.

"This is absolutely wrong," he said. "We are not aware of any actionable intelligence indicating that an attack on the U.S. post in Benghazi was planned or imminent."

It would be quicker to point out the truth posted by the conservatives on this thread. Very little there, sadly.

So you can't. No shock, since there aren't any.

Thanks for making it clear.

Niner, you don't have to be an ass 24/7...I never believed (or indicated anywhere) that Mitt paid NO taxes. 03-wink

Quote:The attacks were suspected to have been timed to coincide with the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist strike in the United States, el-Sharef added, with the militants using the film protest by Libyan civilians to mask their action.

AP Story

It just doesn't make sense that a planned raid with high-powered weapons and a motorcade would be able to enlist the help of thousands of locals with no real known warning to anyone ahead of time. And then to also coordinate swarms of cilivilans in several other countries at the same time.
