Obama “Accidentally” Armed Terrorists Who Attacked Benghaziometimes, understanding the full political story requires taking a step back and connecting news stories in a way that the mainstream media “forgets” or outright refuses to do.
Benghazi is one such example. We know for a fact that Obama helped arm the Libyan rebels in 2011, we know that an Al Qaeda group claimed they were being helped by the arms, we know that the New York Times admitted that they were being armed “accidentally”, and we know that that same group later attacked the US Benghazi consulate in 2012.
What does this mean? Obama dumped weapons into Libya that Al Qaeda ended up receiving. This might be part of what Obama is hiding… his “go ahead” is what armed the anti-Benghazi terrorists. This puts a whole new spin on “aiding and abetting” the enemy.

Let’s go through these points with outside sources. First, Obama armed Libyan rebels.
From Reuters:
President Barack Obama has signed a secret order authorizing covert U.S. government support for rebel forces seeking to oust Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, government officials told Reuters on Wednesday.
But “support” can mean many things. What kind of support was he giving? We found out later on… weapons.
From the New York Times:
The Obama administration secretly gave its blessing to arms shipments to Libyan rebels from Qatar last year, but American officials later grew alarmed as evidence grew that Qatar was turning some of the weapons over to Islamic militants, according to United States officials and foreign diplomats.
Just how bad was this “accidental” support? Enough that a leader of “Al Aqaeda in the Islamic Maghreb” openly admitted to being a main beneficiary.
From ABC News:
“We have been one of the main beneficiaries of the revolutions in the Arab world,” Mokhtar Belmokhtar, a leader of the north Africa-based al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb [AQIM], told the Mauritanian news agency ANI Wednesday. “As for our benefiting from the [Libyan] weapons, this is a natural thing in these kinds of circumstances.”
Now who is this Al Qaeda group? They’re the ones who took part in the Benghazi attack. What source do we have for this? Hillary Clinton herself. From the Miami Herald:
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Wednesday tied the attack that killed the U.S. ambassador to Libya to the creation of an al Qaida haven in Mali, adding that Islamist militants there pose a threat to democratic transitions throughout northern Africa…
‘For some time, al Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb and other groups have launched attacks and kidnappings from northern Mali into neighboring countries,” Clinton told leaders at a U.N. meeting on North Africa’s political and security crises.’
The end conclusion is clear. The US dumped weapons in Libya, Al Qaeda took them, and that same group attacked Benghazi a year later. The media refuses to point out what even Clinton herself has admitted. If this doesn’t prove media bias, nothing does.
Meanwhile, we’re planning on repeating the entire ordeal in Syria. This truly is madness. http://www.capitalisminstitute.org/obama-armed-terrorists/
