The #Benghazi @CIA Chief of Base, "Bob," acknowledged that the Libya Transitional Government warned them of an impending threat before 9/11/12. (1/3)
All regional Combatant Commanders were summoned to Washington DC for meetings on the week of 9/11/12. Thus, none was at his post during the #Benghazi terrorist attack. (2/3)
The US interagency task force Counterterrorism Security Group, established precisely for attacks like what occurred in #Benghazi, was not convened on the 2012 anniversary of the worst terrorist attack on the USA. (3/3)

An American named Marc Turi was a registered arms broker and owner of Turi Defense Group, Inc. who divided his time between Arizona and the United Arab Emirates. (1/9) Image
Turi applied to the @StateDept for a license in March 2011 to ship former Soviet Bloc weapons to Libyan rebels. Turi emailed Stevens regarding his proposal. Stevens wrote back saying that he would share Turi's information with the appropriate people back at the @StateDept. (2/9)
Turi's proposal to ship Soviet Bloc weapons to Libyan rebels was denied because all commercial military sales are notified to Congress, and @HillaryClinton's @StateDept didn't want a data trail traced to them when they were conducting their own covert arms operation. (3/9)

With the first Sunday network TV news talk shows since the #Benghazi attacks approaching, the White House had to pick someone to appear and answer questions. Their 1st choice was @HillaryClinton. @brhodes sent her a request, but he claimed he never heard back from her. 🤣(1/7)
This was obviously an embarrassing moment for @HillaryClinton, who had planned to use her war in Libya and the assassination of Qadhafi as a success story for her future campaign for president. (2/7)
Flashback to the statement by her Deputy Chief of Staff @jakejsullivan long before the #Benghazi attacks: "Hillary's role is leadership/ownership/stewardship of Libya policy from start to finish." (3/7)

When pressed by the @HouseBenghazi committee on why his overhaul of the talking points did not include the fact that there was NO 9/11/12 protest at the #Benghazi compound, backed by numerous documented witness accounts, @MichaelJMorell used an "It's not my job" excuse. (1/6)
Morell's argument was that he would have overstepped his bounds as a CIA manager to change the assessment of analysts in the talking points: "Look, managers at CIA don’t do analysis. When they are perceived to be doing the analysis, the analysts go nuts, right?" (2/6)
Morell's argument was intentionally misleading and false. He was NOT creating an analytic assessment. He was editing talking points that would be used for public consumption. The CIA analysts were not involved in the talking points process; only managers (i.e. Morell) were. (3/6)

Another document that @MichaelJMorell reviewed before he overhauled the #Benghazi talking points was an email from the CIA Tripoli Chief of Station stating his assessment "that the attacks were not/not spontaneous and not/not an escalation of protests." (1/4)
The email referred to the press reports quoting the @StateDept #Benghazi compound guards who witnessed that the attack began without warning and in the absence of any protests outside the compound beforehand. (2/4)
The email also cited a CIA officer on the scene who noted that there was no sign of a protest at the compound, and Libyan President Magaryaf who stated "the attacks were planned in advance by experienced individuals, most likely al-Qa'ida and not former regime elements." (3/4)

Considering all the information that @MichaelJMorell had at the time that he overhauled the #Benghazi talking points on 9/15/12, it's abundantly clear he chose to ignore the facts and follow his marching orders from the Obama White House to describe the attacks their way. (1/5)
A 9/15/12 New York Times article quoted a guard who was at the @StateDept #Benghazi compound when it came under attack. The guard confirmed that the attack began without advance warning or any peaceful protest. (2/5)
"Attack, attack," the guard said over his walkie-talkie as the chants from the attackers came closer. Suddenly, according to the guard, there came a barrage of gunfire, explosions, and rocket-propelled grenades. (3/5)

At the time the @HouseBenghazi Select Committee released its final report, a detailed inventory of all armed drone assets available on the night of the #Benghazi terrorist attacks was not produced by the Department of Defense. (1/4)
The explanation that, because of time and distance, armed drones may not have arrived in #Benghazi in time is false and is no excuse for the fact that the Obama Administration didn't even try to help. (2/4)
Under the command of President Obama, the military failed to provide an inventory of every armed aircraft, whether manned or unmanned, that could have flown to #Benghazi during the 7-plus hrs. from the beginning of the attack to the mortar rounds hitting the CIA Annex. (3/4) Image
