(Benghazi Comm Hearing #4 - 10/22/15) Hillary Clinton Asserts Ignorance
of US Gov't in Libya Gun-Running to 'Syrian Rebels': The 'Big Lie' ?
The Select Committee on Benghazi was established by the US House of Representatives on May 8, 2014,
by adopting H. Res. 567, Providing for the Establishment of the Select Committee on the Events Surrounding
the 2012 Terrorist Attack in Benghazi, Libya. There are 12 members ( 7 R, 5 D ), chaired by Rep. Trey Gowdy ( R-SC ).
Beginning September 17, 2014, four public Hearings have now been conducted. The most recent hearing,
conducted October 22, 2015, received the testimony of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as the sole witness.
Conducted in the US House of Representatives Longworth House Office Building, the video of the entire hearing
is posted here on the Benghazi Select Committee website, in two parts.
The first video is also posted on YouTube here [ Benghazi Select Committee (Hearing 4), video - 5:56:25, views - 350,030 ],
covering the period approx. 10am to 4pm ( including recess breaks ). The second video is also posted on YouTube here
[ Select Committee on Benghazi (Hearing 4 B), video - 5:20:43, views - 36,526 ], covering the period approx. 4pm to 9:20pm
( including recess breaks ).
______________________________
The general focus of this particular e-mail report is limited to three precise, prepared questions asked of Secretary Hillary Clinton
by Rep. Mike Pompeo ( R-KS ) beginning close to 8:30 pm ( second video time 4:27:00 ), especially the second question dealing
with "any efforts by the US Government in Libya to provide any weapons, directly or indirectly, or through a cut-out, to any
Syrian rebels or militias or opposition Syrian forces". These are the three questions of Rep. Pompeo, and the answers given
by Secretary Clinton:
Rep. Pompeo: "Were you aware, or are you aware, of any efforts by the US Government in Libya to provide any weapons
either directly or indirectly, or through a cut-out, to any Libyan rebels or militias or opposition to Gaddafi's forces ?"
Secretary Clinton: [ pause ] "That was a very long question, and I think the answer is no."
Rep. Pompeo: "Were you aware, or are you aware, of any US efforts by the US Government in Libya to provide any weapons
directly or indirectly, or through a cut-out, to any Syrian rebels or militias or opposition to Syrian forces ?"
Secretary Clinton: "No."
Rep. Pompeo: "Were you aware, or are you aware, of any efforts by the US Government in Libya to facilitate or support
the provision of weapons to any opposition of Gaddafi's forces, Libyan rebels, or militias through a third party or country ?"
Secretary Clinton: "No."
______________________________
The specific focus of this e-mail will be the core of the second question. Did the US Government in Libya
provide weapons to the Syrian 'rebels'/militias/opposition ? Multiple sources have said "yes" and multiple sources
have suspected "yes". Did Secretary of State Hillary Clinton know ? How about then Secretary of Defense,
Leon Panetta ? How about then Director of the CIA, General David Petraeus ? Is Hillary Clinton's "No" answer
a Big Lie ? Is Congressman Trey Gowdy's Benghazi Select Committee going to call Leon Panetta and
David Petraeus as witnesses to appear before the Benghazi Select Committee among the remaining
20 or so witnesses that Rep. Gowdy said in the Oct. 22 Hearing are planned to testify before the committee ?
Will Panetta and Petraeus appear in open public Hearing(s) so the American people might hear for themselves
their answers ?
THIS is the key to understanding the September 11, 2012 attack on the Benghazi diplomatic mission
facility ( it was not a consulate or an embassy, but was a temporary facility ), and the subsequent
attack on the nearby CIA Annex, which resulted in the murder of US Ambassador Chris Stevens,
and three other Americans ( Foreign Service officer Sean Smith, CIA operator Tyrone Woods, and
CIA operator Glen Doherty ), because THIS explains why the attack took place in the first place, and
why Ambassador Chris Stevens was killed: The US Government was gun-running to the Syrian 'rebels'
from Libya, through Turkey, to Syria.
In addition, was not CIA Director Petraeus most responsible for the CIA Annex "Stand Down" order
forbidding their rescue of the Benghazi diplomatic mission personnel ( which thankfully was disobeyed ).

And were not both CIA Director Petraeus and Secretary of Defense Panetta most responsible for the failure
to provide military air support to the embattled personnel at the CIA Annex which resulted in the deaths of
Woods and Doherty ?

The Benghazi Select Committee investigation is not yet over, and it is tasked with writing a Final Report
on the Spetember 11, 2012 attack on Benghazi. Any credible, serious, thorough report produced by Rep. Gowdy's
Benghazi Select Committee must include a thorough investigation and report on this matter of US Government
gun-running to the Syrian rebels, because THIS is the key to understanding the September 11, 2012 attack on
the Benghazi diplomatic mission facility !!!

Senator Rand Paul: "Now my question is, is the US involved with any procuring of weapons, transfer of weapons,

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: [ (feigned?) befuddled look ] "To Turkey ? I will have to take that question for
the record. Nobody's ever raised that with me."
Senator Rand Paul: "It's been in news reports that ships have been leaving from Libya and that they may have weapons.
And what I'd like to know, is the [ CIA ] Annex that was close by, were they involved with procuring, buying, selling,
obtaining weapons, and were any of these weapons being transferred to other countries, any countries, Turkey included ?"
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: "Well, Senator, you'll have to direct that question to the agency that ran the [ CIA ] Annex.
And I will see what information is available and ..."
Senator Rand Paul: "You're saying you don't know ?"
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: "I do not know. I don't have any information on that. ... "
