I think it's disgusting. We're going to see the real Obama this time around. I didn't like the guy the first time.

It appears, to me at least. This administration is culling the *you're for me, or against me* sector of our Military.

A kind of coup in slow-mo....with the FBI being the scythe

David Petraeus CIA scandal engulfs US commander Allen,

Check out this topic and then get back with me.

Cmdr. Joseph E. Darlak and top officers of the San Diego-based Navy frigate USS Vandegrift have been relieved of duty after a rowdy, booze-fueled port visit to Vladivostok, Russia.

There are more too

His removal is within weeks of the removal of Army General Carter Ham from US Africa Command, and of Rear Admiral Gaouette from the USS John C. Stennis aircraft carrier in the Middle East Strike Group.

And it makes a person wonder what other things the FBI or CIA or Justice Department or White House are hiding. Considering their track record .. I'd say they are probably hiding a heck of a lot!

This ^^^ is partisan BS.

There's no evidence for this claim. And you KNOW that.

The speech is 40 minutes. Any idea at what point she says these things.

This is huge. Everyone should be watching this.

At the very end - the last 2-3 minutes. But start listening nearer to the 30:00 min mark to the end - OK?.......for the full context. As you listen you will realize that she is told to say everything - in other words she's fully scripted.............amazing. Of course this is all prior to the scandal breaking -

Did Petraeus mistress reveal secret CIA prison?
Paula Broadwell may have divulged new information on Benghazi scandal
Take note that this is all breaking in the Jewish (Israeli) press. The first report (above)posted by the OP stormdancer777 is by Aaron Klein who is WND's senior staff reporter and Jerusalem bureau chief. He also hosts "Aaron Klein Investigative Radio" on New York's WABC Radio.

Broadwell: Petraeus Knew of Benghazi Plea for Help By Gil Ronen
First Publish: 11/11/2012, 5:02 PM

Writer allegedly involved with ex-CIA chief said he knew "within 24 hours" of CIA annex's request for reinforcements.

And more importantly, according to Paula Broadwell, (I am paraphrasing her here) the CIA was using the annex as a "prison" and that they had actually had taken several members of the Libya militia as prisoners. Because of this it is suspected that the major reason behind the attack on the consulate was an effort to try to get these prisoners back.

Military expert Paula Broadwell, who was allegedly improperly involved with resigned CIA Director Gen. David Petraeus, confirmed in October that the CIA annex in Benghazi asked for reinforcements when the consulate came under attack on September 11. She also acknowledged that "there was a failure in the system."

Broadwell was speaking at her alma mater, the University of Denver, on October 26. Her lecture, which is on YouTube under the title "Alumni Symposium 2012 Paula Broadwell," now has added value, because based on the recent disclosures, it can now be assumed that she indeed knew exactly what it was that Petraeus knew about the attack.

Broadwell confirmed the reports on Fox News that the CIA annex asked for a special unit, the Commander in Chief's In Extremis Force, to come and assist it. She also said that the force could indeed have reinforced the consulate, and that Petraeus knew all of this, but was not allowed to talk to the press because of his position in the CIA.

Sorry, but the thrust of this is that the CIF coulda been in Libya a day after the attack? That's the big news?

Guess what the CIF isn't designed to do mop up work. It was in Germany when the attack started and wasn't anywhere near Libya until after the attack was over.

And the source is WND... who's guessing that someone knew what someone else allegedly knew? And that's huge news?

Gen. John Allen also helped Jill Kelley's sister during custody battle
www.nypost.com...

WASHINGTON -- Both Gen. David Petraeus and Gen. John Allen intervened in the same nasty child custody battle involving Natalie Khawam, the “psychologically unstable” twin sister of Jill Kelley, whose bombshell claims of being threatened by Petraeus' lover led to the top spy’s resignation last week, the Post has learned.

Allen, the four-star general top commander in Afghanistan, was revealed last night to have exchanged thousands of pages of of emails with Kelley, who went to the feds after receiving threatening e-mails from Paula Broadwell, the married mistress of Petraeus.


Both Petraeus and Allen apparently decided intervene in the same nasty court fight over a four year old, siding with the mother who, according to court documents, took her son to Florida when he was four months old after a heated argument.



The generals' letters to the court — written in the past two months — supported a motion to overturn a ruling made nearly a year earlier by a judge who resoundingly denied custody to Khawam, because of serious reservations about her honesty and mental stability, court records show.

The father, Grayson Wolfe, was unable to see the child for more than a year, according to court documents. The judge overseeing the case cited Khawam with “outrageous conduct,” “bad faith litigation tactics,” and “illogical thinking,” awarding full custody to the father and socking the mom with $350,000 in legal fees in 2011.

The judge gave Wolfe sole custody of the couple’s son after finding that Khawam, a lawyer, repeatedly lied under oath and filed bogus domestic-violence and child-abuse claims against her husband after their one-year marriage began crumbling in 2009.

Talk about having low friends in high places. This was a civilian custody case. Not even appropriate for high ranking Government Officials to be attempting to steer.....

These guys are pathetic. And they have the nerve of saying gay men put the military ask risk given their potentially dangerous liaisons. What a joke a rooney,

One wouldn't think that two people with the credentials of Paula and Petraeus, could be this stupid,

Think about it, she is an expert in counterintelligence yet she openly sent love letters to Petraeus, you know they know they are being monitored.

Petraeus is the best and the brightest but he allows this to happen.

Yes, they allowed themselves to be exposed.

Not sure why.

And then there is their husband and wife, they all knew.

Misdirection.

They don't want people talking about the benghazi ambassador.

reply to post by John_Rodger_Cornman


Before all is said and done..the FBI will have half the Top Brass in the Military involved in one big swingers club. Anything to keep the focus of Benghazi....

“I was embedded with Gen. Petraeus in Afghanistan, and it was a little confusing to some of the folks there because I am also a military reservist with a top secret FBI clearance and then some,” Broadwell told the audience.

There was no hint then that Petraeus would become much more than just a mentor and whether she obtained unauthorized information.

Petraeus 'Knew Almost Immediately' Al Qaeda-Linked Group Responsible for Benghazi

David Petraeus is going to tell members of Congress that he "knew almost immediately after the September 11th attack, that the group Ansar al Sharia, the al Qaeda sympathizing group in Libya was responsible for the attacks," CNN reports.

In his closed door meeting on the Hill, "[Petraeus] will also say he had his own talking points separate from U.N. ambassador Susan Rice. [Hers] came from somewhere other in the administration than his direct talking points," Barbara Starr of CNN reports, referencing a source close to Petraeus.

The former CIA director will move to further himself from comments that didn't accurately characterize the terror attack that Rice made 5 days after on national television shows.

"When he looks at what Susan Rice said," CNN reports, "here is what Petraeus's take is, according to my source. Petraeus developed some talking points laying it all out. those talking points as always were approved by the intelligence community. But then he sees Susan Rice make her statements and he sees input from other areas of the administration. Petraeus -- it is believed -- will tell the committee he is not certain where Susan Rice got all of her information."

Did they want to get caught?

was it all part of a bigger plan?

reply to post by Stormdancer777

You got me. I was going to say that I still trust him because he wouldn't have made it to director of the CIA if he couldn't be trusted. Then I remembered his bimbo had classified material on her computer.

Very disappointing.

We are weak.

King: Petraeus Said CIA's Talking Points Were Edited to Play Down Terrorism

Representative Peter King stated that former CIA Director David Petraeus stated that he knew the Benghazi attack was terrorism and that the talking points given to Ambassador Susan Rice were different from the ones prepared by the CIA. Petraeus stated Rice's talking points were edited to demphasized the possibility of terrorism.

You have to wonder how she got access to this classified information,

Nothing is really what it seems.

reply to post by Stormdancer777

It's the strangest thing. I really do still want to trust him, as if deep down I intuitively know he was set up.

EDIT: I have not read anything about this morning's testimony.

Former CIA Director David Petraeus has told Congress that the CIA believed almost immediately that al-Qaeda-linked terrorists were behind the September 11th attacks in Benghazi, according to a leading Republican congressman.

Representative Peter King of New York, a member of the House Intelligence Committee that Petraeus briefed, said that the former general left a 'different impression' today than he had when he testified on Capitol Hill three days after the attack.

Now, King said, Petraeus insisted that the 'original talking points prepared by the CIA were different than the final ones put out' and used by Susan Rice, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, on Sunday talk shows to say - incorrectly - that the attack was sparked by anger over an anti-Islam video made in California.
