For those that still don’t understand what Benghazi was all about:
🚨So here's the REAL story:
Ambassador Stevens was sent to Benghazi to secretly retrieve US made Stinger Missiles that the State Dept had supplied to Ansar al Sharia in Libya WITHOUT Congressional oversight or permission.
Sec State Hillary Clinton had brokered the Libya deal through Ambassador Stevens and a Private Arms Dealer named Marc Turi, but some of the shoulder fired Stinger Missiles ended up in Afghanistan where they were used against our own military. On July 25th, 2012, a US Chinook helicopter was downed by one of them. Not destroyed only because the idiot Taliban didn't arm the missile. The helicopter didn't explode, but it had to land and an ordnance team recovered the missile’s serial number which led back to a cache of Stinger Missiles kept in
Qatar by the CIA.
Obama and Hillary were in full panic mode, so Ambassador Stevens was sent to Benghazi to retrieve the rest of the Stinger Missiles. This was a "do-or-die" mission, which explains the Stand Down Orders given to multiple rescue teams during the siege of the US Embassy.
It was the State Dept, NOT the CIA, that supplied the Stinger Missiles to our sworn enemies because Gen. Petraeus at CIA would not approve supplying the deadly missiles due to their potential use against commercial aircraft. So then, Obama threw Gen. Petraeus under the bus when he refused to testify in support of Obama’s phony claim of a “spontaneous uprising caused by a YouTube video that insulted Muslims.”
Obama and Hillary committed TREASON!
THIS is what the investigation is all about, WHY she had a Private Server, (in order to delete the digital evidence), and WHY Obama, two weeks after the attack, told the UN that the attack was the result of the YouTube video, even though everyone KNEW it was not.
Furthermore, the Taliban knew that the administration had aided and abetted the enemy WITHOUT Congressional oversight or permission, so they began pressuring (blackmailing) the Obama Administration to release five Taliban generals being held at Guantanamo.
Bowe Bergdahl was just a useful pawn used to cover the release of the Taliban generals. Everyone knew Bergdahl was a traitor but Obama used Bergdahl’s exchange for the five Taliban generals to cover that Obama was being coerced by the Taliban about the unauthorized Stinger Missile deal.
So we have a traitor as POTUS that is not only corrupt, but compromised, as well and a Sec of State that is a serial liar, who perjured herself multiple times at the Congressional Hearings on Benghazi. Perhaps this is why no military aircraft were called upon for help in Benghazi: because the administration knew that our enemies had Stinger Missiles that, if used to down those planes, would likely be traced back to the CIA cache in Qatar and then to the State Dept’s illegitimate arms deal in Libya.
Forward this again and again and again until everyone reads the true story of Benghazi.

In 2003, a soldier was buried at Arlington National Cemetery with full honors.
He had been a Finnish war hero. A Waffen-SS officer. A convicted traitor. A stowaway. And a US Army Green Beret.
All the same man.
His name was Lauri Törni. He was born in Finland in 1919, and his entire life was shaped by one thing. He hated the Soviet Union.
In 1939 the Soviets invaded Finland in what became known as the Winter War. Törni fought in it as a young soldier. Finland was massively outnumbered and still made the Red Army pay a staggering price before agreeing to peace.
When war with the Soviets broke out again in 1941, Törni became a legend. He led a small unit of ski troops on raids deep behind Soviet lines. Hit fast. Vanish into the forests. Do it again.
He was so effective the Soviets reportedly put a bounty on his head. Finland awarded him the Mannerheim Cross, its highest military honor.
In 1944, Finland made peace with the Soviet Union. For Törni, the war wasn't over.
He went to Germany to keep fighting the Soviets. He trained with the Waffen-SS and was commissioned as an officer. When Germany collapsed in 1945, he surrendered to the British, escaped from a prison camp, and made his way back to Finland.
Finland arrested him for treason for serving in a foreign army. He was sentenced to six years in prison. He escaped. He was caught. In 1948, he was pardoned.
Then he vanished from Finland for good.
He made his way to Sweden, then sailed to Venezuela. From there he got a job on a cargo ship bound for the United States. When the ship reached the Gulf of Mexico, he jumped overboard and swam to shore.
In 1950 the US passed a law letting foreign veterans who joined the US Army earn American citizenship. Törni signed up immediately and changed his name to Larry Thorne.
The man who had fought in an SS uniform now wore an American one.
He joined the Special Forces. The Green Berets. Rose through the ranks. Became a captain. In 1962 he led a dangerous mission into the mountains of Iran to recover classified material from a crashed American plane.
Then came Vietnam.
He joined MACV-SOG, the top secret unit that ran missions behind enemy lines. On October 18, 1965, his helicopter went down in the jungle of Laos during a mission.
He disappeared. For more than 30 years, nobody knew exactly what happened to him.
In 1999, the crash site was finally found. His remains were identified in 2003.
He was buried at Arlington among the men he served with. A soldier under three flags who spent his entire life fighting the same enemy, in three different uniforms, across three decades.

The noisy little fellow is a hedgehog not a porcupine.
Hedgehog: Belongs to Eulipotyphla and family Erinaceidae. Small, insect-eating mammals related to shrews and moles.
Porcupine: Belongs to Rodentia. Large rodents related to beavers, guinea pigs, and squirrels.

In military aviation, there is one rule every mechanic knows: when a supersonic fighter jet is completely submerged in saltwater and tsunami mud, that airplane is dead forever.
On March 11, 2011, a wall of black ocean water smashed into Matsushima Air Base in northern Japan and swallowed eighteen Mitsubishi F-2B fighter jets whole.
Why did the pilots not simply fly the jets away before the wave hit? Because the earthquake knocked out base power and buckled the tarmac, and a fighter jet takes pre-flight checks and ground power carts before its engine can ignite. Instead of trying to save machines, the airmen ran out to rescue drowning local citizens.
When the water receded, the blue fighter jets were buried in salt, mud, and crushed cars. Experts said every single one had to be scrapped.
American and Japanese engineers refused to let those wings die.
The F-2 fighter was born from a joint partnership between Japan's Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and America's Lockheed Martin, based on the legendary U.S. F-16 Fighting Falcon.
Immediately after the tsunami, U.S. Air Force airmen from the 35th Fighter Wing at Misawa Air Base rushed down to Matsushima to help pump out hangars and wash corrosive salt out of the airframes before the metal rotted.
Then Japanese and American engineers from Mitsubishi and Lockheed Martin spent four years disassembling, rebuilding, and rewiring thirteen of those drowned jets bolt by bolt.
On April 22, 2015, the first resurrected F-2B roared back into the sky and touched down at Misawa Air Base to thunderous applause from American and Japanese airmen standing side by side.
Saltwater can rust iron. It cannot rust the bond between the men who built it.

On October 25, 1942, 1st Lt. Jack Conger shot down three A6M Zeros during a dogfight over Guadalcanal. He then pursued a fourth Zero, piloted by flying ace Petty Officer Second Class Shiro Ishikawa.
Expending the last of his ammunition and determined to knock the plane out of the sky, Conger attempted to use his propellor to chop the tail rudder off Ishikawa's plane. Conger, misjudging the distance between his and Ishikawa's plane, rammed into it and ripped the entire tail off. Both planes then began falling out of the sky, and both pilots bailed out and parachuted into the sea.
A Marine rescue boat picked Lieutenant Conger up out of the water, and Conger convinced the Marines not to shoot Ishikawa.
Conger reached his hand out to pull Ishikawa aboard the boat, but Ishikawa attempted to shoot Conger with his Nambu pistol. When the waterlogged pistol misfired, Conger threw himself backward and injured his back. Ishikawa then attempted to shoot himself and the pistol misfired again. Conger hit Ishikawa over the head with a gas can and pulled him into the boat.
He was awarded the Navy Cross for his actions, and in 1990, Conger met with Ishikawa at the National Museum of the Pacific War at Fredericksburg, Texas. Ishikawa thanked Conger for saving his life 48 years earlier at Guadalcanal, which allowed him to raise a family

On September 21, 2001, while smoke was still rising from the rubble of the World Trade Center in New York, the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk prepared to sail out of Yokosuka, Japan, into war.
Every sailor on board knew the danger they faced before even reaching the open ocean.
Why was leaving Tokyo Bay the most dangerous moment of the voyage? Because to reach the Pacific, the giant carrier had to squeeze through the narrow Uraga Channel, a crowded waterway packed with hundreds of small civilian boats where a single suicide vessel loaded with explosives could strike at point-blank range.
As the Kitty Hawk slipped her moorings that morning, the American crew looked out from the flight deck in stunned silence.
Gray destroyers of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force and white patrol boats of the Japan Coast Guard had formed a tight steel wall directly along both sides of the American carrier.
The Japanese captains positioned their own hulls between the USS Kitty Hawk and all oncoming boat traffic. If a terrorist boat tried to ram the American carrier, it would have to hit a Japanese ship first.
Then the American sailors looked at the rocky cliffs of Yokosuka and Kannonzaki Lighthouse.
Thousands of Japanese citizens, base workers, and families were standing shoulder to shoulder along the shore, waving American flags and holding up hand-painted banners that read "We Are With You."
In her hour of deepest grief, America did not sail out of Japan alone. Japan sailed as her shield.

HOLY CRAP 🚨: A group of radical leftists dressed in black tactical gear lured DHS officers outside the Prairieland Detention Center by firing fireworks at the building.
“A few moments later, an Alvarado Police Officer arrived on the scene. The moment he stepped out of the car, a gunman who was hidden in the woods opened fire. Struck him in the neck.”
“At the exact same time, another gunman started sh00ting at DHS officers. 20-30 rounds from an AR-15-style rifle were sh0t. Those officers were all blessed to be alive tonight.”

Kamala attempts to articulate the value of talking to children.
It doesn't go well:
"I mean, if you have the chance in whatever your, you know, your circle of life to just, you know, talk to like an eight year old, that's one of the best things, you know, someone who just has that twinkle."
"It hasn't been, you know, they haven't they they have the twinkle. They believe in, in all. And they're curious and - Oh, that gives me joy just because, you know, there is something I think about, looking at children to remind us of our natural nature, who we actually it is our nature, our - There is something about that."
This was said at a 'reproductive rights' event. The irony here is next level.
She somehow keeps managing to get worse at this.

Ralph Fiennes has been a very, very naughty boy! He had the absolute audacity to publicly defend J.K. Rowling, the author of a series that gave him one of his most iconic roles to date… that of Harry Potter’s nemesis, Voldemort. Everyone is expected to perfectly goose-step in line and denounce her for her original sin of ‘transphobia’ due to a series of Tweets.
Fiennes is not the sort of man to get dragged along in pointless slacktivism on the internet. He doesn’t Tweet about how woke he is, he doesn’t run around with little rainbows on his lapels… no, Ralph Fiennes is an actual professional. No nonsense, old-school — you’re here to act, so act! I like that. He’s an admirable chap
Meanwhile Radliffe, Watson and whatever-his-name-is who plays Ron, the ginger sidekick, have all spat out Rowling and publicly denounced her, because the Gods of Social Justice have put a fatwa on her name.
Voldie: “I find the level of hatred that people express about views that differ from theirs, and the violence of language towards others, disturbing.”
Beautiful! To the point. And oh-so true. It is disturbing how incredibly, extremely, over-the-top pissed people get at you when you go against the narrative and dare to criticise whatever’s the current hype. The very fact that Fiennes is now “under fire” for a comment so benign, in defense of a woman so marvelous, is… terrifying.
Half the millennial cast of the Harry Potter universe wishes to all-but cancel the very Creator of their own universe, the woman to whom each of them owe their lucrative careers. Not Fiennes. Fiennes was somebody before Voldemort, and continued to be somebody after. He doesn’t need to defend or attack anyone. But he does, anyway, because he’s a decent human being.

People who have never lived through a catastrophe love to ask why America spends billions of dollars building giant nuclear aircraft carriers.
Tell them to ask the mothers of Banda Aceh, Indonesia what they saw on the ocean horizon in January 2005.
When the Indian Ocean tsunami killed more than two hundred thousand people, the entire coast of Sumatra was erased. Every bridge, road, and water pipe was gone. Tens of thousands of children were dying of thirst in the mud, and no truck on earth could reach them.
Two thousand miles away in Hong Kong, the U.S. aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln was on holiday port call.
Within hours of the news, young American sailors walked out of restaurants and hotels, left their vacation behind, ran back up the gangway, and pushed the ship's two nuclear reactors to flank speed.
When the Abraham Lincoln dropped anchor off the shattered coast of Aceh, it did not launch a single fighter jet.
Instead, the American sailors turned their nuclear warship into the largest floating water factory on earth.
Using the ship's four massive steam distillation plants, the crew purified nearly 100,000 gallons of fresh drinking water from the sea every single day. For weeks without sleep, young sailors stood on the hangar deck filling five-gallon plastic jugs by hand, while seventeen Seahawk helicopters flew nonstop from sunrise to sunset.
They flew more than 1,500 missions into jungle clearings, delivering over 400,000 gallons of pure water and nearly six million pounds of food and medicine to people of a different faith who had been taught for years to fear the United States.
America did not ask for one barrel of oil or one dollar in return. When the local hospitals were running again, the giant gray ship quietly raised its anchor and sailed away.
A small mind looks at an American aircraft carrier and sees only a weapon. A survivor looks at that flat gray deck and sees five thousand young Americans bringing water from the sea.

Simone Segouin, mostly known by her codename, Nicole Minet, was only 18-years-old when the Germans invaded. Her first act of rebellion was to steal a bicycle from a German military administration, and to slice the tires of all of the other bikes and motorcycles so they couldn't pursue her. She found a pocket of the Resistance and joined the fight, using the stolen bike to deliver messages between Resistance groups.
She was an extremely fast learner and quickly became an expert at tactics and explosives. She led teams of Resistance fighters to capture German troops, set traps, and sabotage German equipment. As the war dragged on, her deeds escalated to derailing German trains, blocking roads, blowing up bridges and helping to create a German-free path to help the Allied forces retake France from the inside. She was never caught.
Segouin was present at the liberation of Chartres on August 23, 1944, and then the liberation of Paris two days later. She was promoted to lieutenant and awarded several medals, including the Croix de Guerre. After the war, she studied medicine and became a pediatric nurse. She died on 21 February 2023, at the age of 97, in Courville-sur-Eure, France.
