It really IS interesting. The one statement that stood out was, "civilian leadership..." referring to people in the Obama administration. It will never be answered, but was this a policy blunder by Ms. Clinton? Did she misread the situation and ignore the advice and analysis of the JCS, the DIA, etc.? If so, then her judgment is terrible. Making her President would compound the problem.

Yeah, that "civilian leadership" really emphasizes the rift between the administration and the military intelligence guys. They seem to really want to distance themselves from these decisions.

I have been aware of the gun running from Libya to Syrian rebels since early in the Benghazi news cycle. I don't know international law, but I'm almost certain that destabilizing other sovereign governments without a declaration of war is a serious crime.

I'm trying to share this around, but the article is longer than most folk's attention span. Hopefully it gets traction, because this is a big effing deal. We could have WW3 brewing over these idiots.
