THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION MUST COME CLEAN AND FACE UP TO THEIR BENGHAZI NON-ACTIONS

ALERT: The House and Senate MUST establish a Joint Select Committee to investigate the Benghazi terror attacksTake Action and Fax Congress DEMANDING a Joint Investigation! 

Conservative American, 

Today the Whistleblowers will be heard as Rep. Darrell Issa resumes the investigation into the Benghazi terror attacks that took place on September 11, 2012 in Benghazi, Libya. 

The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, a body chaired by Rep. Issa, will be hearing testimonies from Gregory Hicks and Mark I. Thompson - the former a U.S. Diplomat to Libya and the second a deputy coordinator for the State Department's Bureau of Counterterrorism

While many of us anticipate that today's House Oversight meeting will provide more answers as to what actually happened on 9/11 last year, we know that we are far from having all the details that we need and deserve

It has already been over eight months since the attack and we only have a portion of the truth, despite the hard and necessary efforts of the House's Armed Services Committee, Foreign Affairs Committee, Judiciary Committee, and Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. Simply put, we need more than 43 pages of investigative analysis that these House committees jointly released on April 23. 


As the Obama Administration continues to do its best to dodge and deflect responsibility for the sloppy, mishandled, and lethal terror attacks on our consulate and CIA annex in Benghazi, Libya, we must make our voices heard and call on Congress to act

 Americans deserve the truth! Congress must create a special joint select committee to fully investigate the 9/11/12 "anniversary" attacks in Benghazi! Select here to send your free messages to your Representative and Senators. 

You see, what is needed right now is a special joint select committee to investigate. That's right, we need both chambers of Congress working overtime to get to the bottom of what exactly happened in Benghazi last September, what lead up to it, and who's responsible! 

It's our job to rally Congress and demand that they move forward and create this important joint select investigative committee

The good news is that John Bohener signaled he'd be willing to support such an effort if it becomes "necessary" to do so. This is exactly why we need to tell him - and all of Congress - that now is the time to investigate and uncover the details of the Benghazi attacks! How much more time will be wasted before we get the information we deserve?

A Joint Select Committee: 

We are not the only ones that are pressing for answers. Right now there are one-hundred and twenty-nine House members that agree on the need for Congress to establish a special bicameral investigative committee as they are sponsoring Rep. Frank Wolf's (R-Va) H. Res. 26 - a bill "Establishing a select committee to investigate and report on the attack on the United States consulate in Benghazi, Libya.

Section (3) of the Resolution reveals the committee's objectives

Not later than 90 days after the initial meeting of the select committee, the select committee shall conduct an investigation of and submit to the House a report on-

(1) any intelligence known to the United States relating to the attack on the United States consulate in Benghazi, Libya, on September 11, 2012;

(2) any requests for additional security, or actions taken by Federal agencies to improve security at the consulate before the attack;

(3) a definitive timeline of the attack;

(4) how the relevant agencies and the executive branch responded to the attack and whether appropriate congressional notifications were made;

(5) any improper conduct by officials relating to the attack;

(6) recommendations on what steps Congress and the President should take to prevent future attack; and

(7) any other relevant issues relating to the attack or the response to the attack.

"Despite the months that have passed," the Resolution's sponsor says, "we're hardly closer to bringing those responsible to justice than we were in the weeks immediately following the attack. Put bluntly: the lack of progress in identifying and hunting down the terrorists responsible is stunning." 

The creation of a joint select committee is a necessary step that Congress must take in order to centralize all of the existing investigations into one comprehensive, extensive review. Rep. Wolf says, "A combined effort will yield even more information regarding the true nature of these terrorist attacks and the administration's response and will not allow administration officials to offer up siloed accounts to various committees." 

The joint select committee would be comprised of 19 members of both chambers of Congress: The chairman and ranking members from the Intelligence, Foreign Affairs, Judiciary, Armed Services, Homeland Security, and Oversight and Government Reform committees, and five other Republican members appointed by John Boehner and two Democrats appointed by the Minority Leader. 

This investigation is a must if Congress is serious about getting to the bottom of the attack on our diplomatic installments in Benghazi, Libya! 

It's time for the U.S. Congress to uncover the details of the 9/11/12 terrorist attacks. The Obama Administration has been committed to secrecy and half-truths in regards to this tragic event, and we must demand our Congresspersons to exercise their power and investigate the Obama Administration and their Benghazi Terror Cover-up

What We Know 

The Obama Administration's reports have been changing for eight months, but - thankfully - some of the truth has come out: 
  • We know that the Obama Administration was aware of the Benghazi attack within two hours of its happening.
  • We know that the attacks were linked to al Qaeda and radical Islam, despite the Administration's reports, and that that the "official talking points" on Benghazi were a complete sham.
  • We know that the acts of terrorism were not the result of a "spontaneous protest" due to a little-known film about Islam.
  • We know that the U.S. Special forces could've prevented the second wave of deadly mortar attacks on the CIA annex in Benghazi, but were ordered to "stand down."
  • We know that Libyan government was astounded at the fact that the U.S. Government never requested to use airspace to respond to the attacks and that the responses that did manifest were severely delayed.
  • We know that then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton disregarded the opinions, according to whistleblower Mark Thompson, of the State Department's Bureau of Counterterrorism.
  • We know that the State Department refuses to allow "low level" employees who were on the scene in Benghazi during the attacks to testify in front of Congress.
  • We know that the Accountability Review Board - which was commissioned by former Secretary Clinton - isunder investigation for its selective reporting.

However, though we have some information, we certainly don't have it all. How much more information are we missing? What remains to be covered and in the dark? 

The whistleblowers set to testify today believe there is a big disconnect between the Executive Branch's narrative and what exactly happened in mid-September last year. Peter Hoekstra, the former House Intelligence Committee Chairman, says that these truth-tellers "feel that there is a gap between what's in the public domain and what really happened." 

It's time to get to the bottom of this and demand that both chambers of Congress move to investigate - it's time for a select committee to thoroughly bridge the gap between fiction and reality

What We Don't Know 

While we outlined a few things that we do know, much information is still to be desired. Congress must press for more explanations. 

These questions must be answered: 
  • Why was the military halted from responding to the terrorist attacks? Even if they arrived late, they could've provided much-needed first aid to the victims.
  • Why did the State Department refuse to heed calls for more security in the months leading up to the attack? The regional security officer Eric Nordstrom documented and reported over 200 security threats between June and July, 50 of which occurred in Benghazi.
  • Why did the State Department hire a militia group affiliated with al-Qaeda - the February 17th Martyrs Brigade - to provide security service for the federal government's diplomatic and covert intelligence installations?
  • Why won't former Secretary of State Clinton testify further about her role in the 9/11/12 Benghazi terror event? Clinton testified only once and remains silent on the issue.
  • Why didn't the Accountability Review Board interview Clinton for their reports?
  • Why do we not have clear answers on how the inaccurate talking points were arrived at and disseminated as truth, despite that they were fictitious from the start?
  • Why was not every single eyewitness to the Benghazi attack immediately consulted on the event? Why did American intelligence fail to swiftly respond?

Questions like these must be settled immediately. 

The good news is that we have legal advocates - and they are numbered at 535! The House of Representatives and the Senate need to take this issue up by using the power given to them by We The People to investigate the Executive Branch and work hard to uncover this cover-up that is nearly nine months old

The House started this important exploratory work, and the Senate must help them finish! The bottom line is: the American People deserve the truth!

It's Their Job! 

Congress has the power to investigate and it should. As the great 19th Century economist and political scientist, John Stuart Mill, wrote: 

"The proper office of a representative assembly is to watch and control the government." 

The Supreme Court agrees; in the 1927 case McGrain v. Daugherty, Justice Willis Van Devanter confirmed that the Congressional power to investigate "has long been treated as an attribute of the power to legislate. It was so regarded in the British Parliament and in the Colonial legislatures before the American Revolution; and a like view has prevailed and been carried into effect in both houses of Congress and in most of the state legislatures." 

It's time for U.S. Lawmakers to "watch" and "control" our overgrown Executive Branch - a Branch that refuses to tell the real story of what happened leading up to, on, and after the September 11, 2012 terrorist attacks in Libya

Conservative Action Alerts is mobilizing the grassroots to demand transparency by calling on elected servants to investigate the 9/11/12 "Anniversary Attacks" on our Libyan consulate and CIA annex!

Although some of the news media has been an ally in uncovering some of the facts that the Obama Administration has tried to hide, we can be sure that there is still much under lock and key. 

We know that the truth about Benghazi is being stifled because it would ruin Obama's narrative on radical Islam - that is, that his administration supposedly contained it with the death of Osama bin Laden. 

But this isn't true. Radical Islam exists, and it displayed itself in Libya. The best thing we can do now is get a hold of the answers. 

Will you send your Faxes and demand all the U.S. House and Senate to act? Blast faxes now!
