From Before its News

It’s even worse that we previously thought. A retired four-star admiral is now claiming that Barack Obama intentionally conspired with America’s enemies to stage a bogus attack and the kidnapping of an American ambassador so he could “negotiate” the release of a“hostage” and bolster his mediocre approval ratings just prior to the election?
The Washington Examiner, quoting retired Four-Star Admiral James Lyons, writes: “[T]he attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi… was the result of a bungled abduction attempt…. the first stage of an international prisoner exchange… [that] would have ensured the release of Omar Abdel Rahman, the ‘Blind Sheik’…” , , , Read Complete Report

In a special report, Bret Baier shows the full timeline of what happened before, during, and after the Benghazi terrorist attack. The report suggests not only a White House cover-up, but also a serious miscalculation when it comes to multiple denied requests for additional security prior to the 9/11/2012 attack at the Benghazi compound.

Regarding the claim that retired four star admiral James Lyons said that Obama conspired with enemies.
You said: “The Washington Examiner, quoting retired Four-Star Admiral James Lyons, writes: “[T]he attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi… was the result of a bungled abduction attempt…. the first stage of an international prisoner exchange… [that] would have ensured the release of Omar Abdel Rahman, the ‘Blind Sheik’…”
HOWEVER. It turns out that the Washington Examiner had no such article. It never even interviewed Admiral Lyons.

There IS an article by Admiral Lyons in the Washington TIMES (perhaps you got the two mixed up). HOWEVER, while the article talks a lot about mistakes by the administration, it does NOT claim that Obama conspired with enemies to stage a mock attack that went horribly wrong—-or that he conspired with enemies at all. There is NO mention of conspiracy in the article. (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/oct/28/lyonsobama-needs-come-clean-what-happened-benghazi/?page=all)
A blog known as The Examiner (which is not the Washington Examiner) did say that “Sources suggest the Benghazi attack was a bungled abduction attempt (Photos)”. And it quoted Admiral Lyons in a TV interview, but it did not say that Lyons said: ““[T]he attack on the
American Consulate in Benghazi… was the result of a bungled abduction attempt…. the first stage of an international prisoner exchange… [that] would have ensured the release of Omar Abdel Rahman, the ‘Blind Sheik’…”
Lyons did NOT say it, and the Blog “the Examiner” quotes its unknown
and untested sources saying that it MAY have happened, not that it did happen. (http://www.examiner.com/article/some-sources-suggest-the-benghazi-attack-was-a-bungled-abduction-attempt).
And yet birthers and the birther press believe such stories.
More that three weeks have passed and there has been absolutely no confirmation that Admiral Lyons said:
“the attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi… was the result of a bungled abduction attempt…. the first stage of an international prisoner exchange… that would have ensured the release of Omar Abdel Rahman, the ‘Blind Sheik’…”
Nor has anyone else said it. The notion that the Obama Administration conspired with the terrorists in Benghazi is a nutty conspiracy theory.
About a month and a half has passed have passed and there has been absolutely no confirmation that Admiral Lyons said:
“the attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi… was the result of a bungled abduction attempt…. the first stage of an international prisoner exchange… that would have ensured the release of Omar Abdel Rahman, the ‘Blind Sheik’…”
Nor has anyone else said it. The notion that the Obama Administration conspired with the terrorists in Benghazi is a nutty conspiracy theory.
Nor have I read any report where he has denied it. When more information comes down the line regarding this (one way or the other) I will be sure and post it.
And anything that Obama does to further his socialistic goals would not surprise me. At any rate the president lied about the true purpose of the operation so as not to hurt his chances for president. He lied to the American people. That’s the point.

Re: “At any rate the president lied about the true purpose of the operation so as not to hurt his chances for president. He lied to the American people. That’s the point.”
Does that justify you lying by publishing the false claim that a former US Admiral said that Obama conspired with our enemies in Benghazi?
What makes you think that we even know the names of our enemies there so that we could talk with them to launch a conspiracy? And what makes you think that we would trust them (and they trust us) enough to launch a conspiracy?
Re: “intentionally conspired with America’s enemies to stage a bogus attack and the kidnapping of an American ambassador so he could “negotiate” the release of a“hostage” and bolster his mediocre approval ratings just prior to the election?”
SIX Months have passed since this was posted, and there has not been a shred of evidence that Obama “intentionally conspired with America’s enemies” or for that matter that the retired four-star admiral said that he did.
Hello! Someone in my Myspace group shared this website with
us so I came to look it over. I’m definitely loving the information.
I’m bookmarking and will be tweeting this to
my followers! Exceptional blog and wonderful design and style.
Anything to smear this President — and I do mean ANYTHING. Any story will do, nothing is too fantastic or too unbelievable, or too exagerrated for the Far Right Wing Conspiracy “Theorists.” Simply disgusting. Someone is shelling out a lot of money on this nonsense — the Koch Bros., perhaps?
