[Update] Finally and Obama official admits also what conservatives and anyone with a lick of common sense has been saying, but the White House has been denying... the attack against the Libya consulate, safe house and the murders weren't just preplanned, it was a terrorist attack.
Only took 8 days for them to finally admit the truth to the American people.
Since 9/11, evidence has been piling up showing that the attack against the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, then the safe house and the murder of U.S. Ambassador to Libya and three others was a premeditated, organized terror attack aimed at America on the 11th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terror attack.
The Obama admin has given interviews and press conferences, denying the attack was preplanned, using the Mohammed movie trailer "Innocence of Muslims" as a cover for the attack...... until now.
The White House on Tuesday explicitly left open the possibility that last week's dramatic attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, which left four Americans including U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens dead, was a planned attack.
Press secretary Jay Carney suggested the assault could have been the work of an armed group looking to "take advantage" of demonstrations he blamed on an anti-Islam video available online.Carney repeatedly described that footage as the "precipitating" cause of the protests and the violence targeting American diplomatic posts in Egypt, Libya, Sudan, Tunisia and elsewhere.Libya is "still a very volatile place [where] there are vast numbers of weapons, and certainly a number of violent groups in the country," he told reporters at his daily briefing."There is an abundance of weapons, including heavy weapons, and there are certainly groups that carry those weapons and look to take advantage of those circumstances—as there are around the region and the world," Carney said. He did not say whether such groups might be linked to international extremist networks like al-Qaida."We have seen circumstances in the past in other parts of the region where incidents that inflame opinion are taken advantage of, and exploited, by groups that have an interest in creating chaos and destabilizing their local governments, or attacking the West or the United States," Carney said.
Yet the Obama admin is still lying:
Carney said he was "not aware" of any advance warning from Libyan officials regarding the assault on the American Consulate in the eastern city of Benghazi, which saw heavily armed and as-yet undisclosed fighters storm the compound and then hold it for hours against American and Libyan counterattack.
Carney must be the most uninformed person in the world right now if he isn't "aware" of the following events:
• Intercepted communications warning of the attack, reported on three days ago:
The president of Libya's parliament, Mohamed al-Magariaf, has said military action is being considered against militants blamed for the killing of the US ambassador Chris Stevens.
Magariaf also confirmed reports from Washington that US officials intercepted communications discussing the planned attack on the US consulate in Benghazi, which he said linked al-Qaida in the Maghreb to an Islamist brigade, Ansar al-Sharia. "Yes, that happened," he said.• Libya warning the "of possible violent unrest in Benghazi three days before the killings of US Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three members of his team."
American diplomats were warned of possible violent unrest in Benghazi three days before the killings of US Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three members of his team, Libyan security officials say.• The presence of RPGS, rocket-propelled grenades and mortars and machine guns.
The claim came as the country's interim President, Mohammed el-Megarif, said his government had information that the attack on the US consulate had been planned by an Islamist group with links to al-Qa'ida and with foreigners taking part.
Although it is not being widely reported in American media, the Libyan government is publicly stating that the attacks on the United States consulate office that left four Americans dead, including US Ambassador Chris Stevens, were definitively not related to an anti-Islam video produced in the United States.• It was an organized, two-part attack.
Rather, the country believes that the attack, which used rocket-propelled grenades and mortars, was a sophisticated, planned attack on the United States by Al-Quaida that was planned to coincide with the anniversary of 9-11.
The attack that killed four Americans in Libya, including the U.S. ambassador, was an organized two-part operation by heavily armed militants that included a precisely timed raid on a supposedly secret safe house just as Libyan and U.S. security forces were arriving to rescue evacuated consulate staff, a senior Libyan security official said on Thursday.
The Obama administration has done everything in their power to claim the Libya terrorist attack was part of protests over the Mohammed movie trailer, in order to deny that they had warning, they didn't provide sufficient security and America was attacked by terrorists again on 9/11.
Their attempts to lie to the American people have now been shredded by facts, yet they are still lying.
