Breaking: Benghazi Attack Ringleader Captured in Secret Raid

Thanks Obama
US News • Views: 26,689

Who does the Obama administration think they’re fooling? This capture of a Benghazi ringleader is nothing more than a transparent attempt to distract people’s attention from Benghazi: U.S. Captures Benghazi Suspect in Secret Raid.

The officials said Ahmed Abu Khattala was captured Sunday near Benghazi by American troops, working alongside the FBI, following months of planning, and was now in U.S. custody “in a secure location outside Libya.” The officials said there were no casualties in the operation, and that all U.S. personnel involved have safely left Libya.

Abu Khattala’s apprehension is a major victory for the Obama administration, which has been criticized for having failed so far to bring those responsible for the Benghazi attacks to justice.

Yes, the White House let this guy run free for months, knowing that they’d need him in the event of a major political snafu. Which is why they didn’t capture him until now, because only his capture can take attention off…whatever wingnuts think is most important at the moment.

But that’s all the GOP can do these days - rage against governance.

Already heard one on another board bitch that he’s being afford a trial instead of just killed by a drone like Anwar al-Awlaki. But let’s be honest, if the news read “Benghazi Attack Ringleader Killed In Drone Strike,” the wingnuts would be spinning conspiracy theories about how the guy was totally innocent and the President had him killed by a drone to cover his tracks.

No matter when the man was captured, they’d “question the timing.” But that’s because they flit from “scandal” to “scandal” and believe that anything that makes the President look positive in any way is a “distraction” from the latest “scandal.”

…(Republican Bruce) Rauner’s camp last week collected what might be the largest single contribution to any American candidate (other than self-funding) in modern political history.
The $2.5 million contribution came from Chicago billionaire Ken Griffin, a hedge-fund CEO. Illinois does have a $5,300 campaign contribution limit in gubernatorial elections, but under state law, that limit disappears for all the candidates if any one candidate spends more than $250,000 of his own money. Since Rauner so far has spent more than $6 million of his own money, he and Quinn both are allowed to accept any level of contribution.

What’s so ironic about the IRS thing is that if you ask a right-winger why it’s OK that black people get disproportionately stopped by the police, they’ll tell you that’s fine because black people are more likely to commit crimes.

But for some reason, even though Tea Party groups are more likely to be fronts for political spending, it’s not OK for the IRS to pay close attention to tax exemption claims from those groups.

No, you see, heavily armed white men couldn’t possibly commit an act of terrorism. If they did something, it would be an act of patriotism and standing up for freedom against the tyranny of the Federal Government.

The State Department is expected to tie Qumu’s group to the Benghazi attack when it designates three branches of Ansar al-Sharia, in Darnah, Benghazi and Tunisia, as foreign terrorist organizations in the coming days.

In 2007, Qumu was released from the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and sent to Libya, where he was detained. The Libyan government released him in 2008.

He and two other men, militia leaders Ahmed Abu Khattala and Seif Allah bin Hassine, will be identified as “specially designated global terrorists,” a determination that allows U.S. officials to freeze their financial assets and bar American citizens and companies from doing business with them.

Look at this reasoning from GG who tries to impress the “socialists”. Talk about “conformist”.

“When we think that somebody’s watching us, our behavior becomes much more conformist, compliant and subservient, because we want to engage in the behavior that people want us to engage in, and will judge us positively for, rather than condemn us or look at us in an exclusionary kind of way.”

Maybe yours does, GG.

So what talking point will they settle on? “Too convenient!,” “There are still others responsible out there!,” or “He should be in Gitmo!”?

You act as if they operate by any coherent set of thinking that would require them to pick one…

They’ll use all three, rotating between them on alternate days - unless evidence comes to light that any of them are not true, at which point the untrue talking point will be dropped and the other two used more to make up the difference.

Speaking of the mighty GG, The Intercept has not published anything in 11 days.

Office cubicles are very empty right now. Lots of folks headed out to a bar to watch the game. And a lot in the lunch room - where there are sandwiches, popcorn, pretzels, and water ice.

The rule with the wingnuts now is that everything is a “distraction” until it becomes a “scandal.” Case in point, Bowe Bergdahl’s safe return was a “distraction” right up until they found a way to spin it as a “scandal.”

Once people on the hysterical right decided that Obama was a Muslim loving, America-hating impostor born in another country, then everything he does must have an ulterior motive. Any admission by the right of sincerity on his part would break the fever pitch narrative, which started back in 2007. This many years later, it won’t end.

Fact is, there is no “good” non-political time to get anything done. In a 24/7 news cycle unrelenting battle, everything can be seen through the prism of “suspicious timing” to win that day’s bullshit tug of war.

re: #56 Zamb

So how long does will it take for it to become TRUTH!!! that he was released by Obama from the rightwing crowd, 5-6 minutes?

Oh, the right wingers will turn him into one of the 5 Taliban released from Gitmo for Bergdahl. And given a TARDIS, I guess, in order to go back in time to 2012.
