Yup Obama and Hillary put the kibosh on the rescue so that there guns for jihad's program would not get exposed.

My favourite part of the emails are that the military assets available include a "[redacted]"
Aside from the fun of wondering what that might be, are these the emails that Hillary is telling us weren't classified? References to the positions of military assets that still need to be redacted many years later?

The decision was ultimately Obamas to make but when your Secretary of State is just another stooge, this is what you get. Panetta is also in the mix, anyone thats ever heard him speak to Congress knows he'd blow Obama on a street corner for a nickel. The whole thing reeks of incompetence from top to bottom with Hillary becoming the fall girl for the whole debacle. She had as much business being Secretary of State as my Chihuahua "Meaner", that goes for Kerry too. She got a pass from a complicit Congress willing to do nothing and she got the nod to run for President from Obama, case closed. Obviously she thinks it was worth it.
