Nothing will come of it, but it is still interesting to point out that for the first time EVER former CIA Director Leon Panetta will give testimony to congress about Libya.

It is important to note that Panetta and Hillary Clinton worked together on Operation Zero Footprint, the covert weapons running and regime change operation which began in March 2011 as a result of President Obama authorizing via presidential “finding memo“.

Clinton and Panetta worked closely together during their Libyan intervention and overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi.   ~See The Benghazi Brief~

After Panetta left the CIA, General Petraeus took over and was ‘technically‘ in charge of the CIA on the night of the Benghazi attack 9/11/12.   However, Petraeus was removed from testifying before congress by the affair with Paula Broadwell which led to his resignation.  Mike Morell took over as interim CIA chief two days before the testimony.  (more…)

If you have followed our Benghazi research, and read the Benghazi Brief, it appears Gowdy has all the key players listed for interviews.    However, another key element for the interviews is going to be the sequencing.

Panetta must be interviewed first because it was he and Hillary who developed and executed “operation zero footprint” in Libya; Hillary should be questioned last.   This approach puts the primary constructionists, the “whys”, as bookends – the other interviewees fill in the details as to who, what, where and when.
Tom Donilon’s interview serves one primary function – he was the link between Hillary (state dept) and Obama (white house) – he was, and “is”, the last layer of plausible deniability protection from the president; Donilon was also Hillary’s designated contact to be liaison between what she was doing, and informing POTUS.
Tommy Vietor worked for  Tom Donilon, and it was Vietor and Donilon who were in the situation room on 9/11/12 conveying information to Denis McDonough, Obama’s Chief of Staff.  Hillary was in her DC office that afternoon when events erupted and told to stay away from the White House. 
Just like Ambassador Stevens and Sean Smith, Hillary Clinton was out beyond the wire and Donilon/McDonough knew she was an immediate sunlight risk if she came to the White House.  Clinton was off the range, this was 100% her porcelain baby, when it crashed the White House told her she owned it.       
WASHINGTON DC – A special House committee looking into the deadly Benghazi, Libya, attacks in 2012 will interview a host of current and former high-ranking Obama administration officials as it speeds the pace of the investigation. (more…)

If you listen to the answers given by Leon Panetta in this interview regarding the CIA talking points you will note his discomfort at O’Reilly attaching General Petraeus to the Benghazi talking points.

Panetta continues to say “the CIA” talking points when pushed, because he knows Petraeus did not construct them, Deputy CIA Director Mike Morell did.
It was Mike Morell and Ben Rhodes who formulated the political strategy Susan Rice was sent forth to sell. That’s why Petraeus became a risk prior to the November 2012 election and needed to be removed. That’s why Petraeus’s relationship with Paula Broadwell was leveraged for his removal.

Gee, would have been nice to see the truth come out BEFORE the election.   Alas, that wouldn’t suffice the media narrative.

WASHINGTON DC – Defense Secretary Leon Panetta testified this morning on Capitol Hill that President Barack Obama was absent the night four Americans were murdered in Benghazi on September 11, 2012:

Panetta said, though he did meet with Obama at a 5 o’clock prescheduled gathering, the president left operational details, including knowledge of what resources were available to help the Americans under siege, “up to us.” (more…)

**BUMPED** Today, Sunday September 11, 2022, is the 600th day of Joe Biden in office. It is also the 10th anniversary of the attack at a U.S. embassy outpost in Benghazi, Libya.

The “Benghazi Brief” remains the most in-depth research report CTH has ever produced. The brief took two years of research to assemble and contains hundreds of very specific citations supporting it.  Eight years after the brief was originally written in 2014, nothing within the outline has ever been identified as inaccurate. It has been updated below adding context depth from current events.

The Benghazi Brief

We know from the Bret Baier interview with Hillary Clinton that she was physically located at her 7th floor office in Washington DC on the night of the attack 9/11/12.

Unfortunately, we also know during the November 2012 Thanksgiving holiday a mysterious fire took place in that building. Well, actually directly above her exact office – cause undetermined.

A “fire” which preceded an unfortunate slip and fall for the Secretary, resulting in a concussion, which led to the discovery of a blood clot, that ultimately delayed her congressional testimony before a Senate Hearing into the events of the night in question.

We know the Libyan uprising began on February 10th of 2011, and we also know that sometime around the end of February 2011 President Obama signed a presidential directive authorizing the State Dept and CIA to begin a covert operation to arm the Libyan “rebels”.

Swamp Guardian and Fox News primary Decepticon, Brett Baier, interviews former Obama CIA Director Leon Panetta and President Trump’s current CIA Director Mike Pompeo during a Reagan Defense Forum summit at the Reagan Library.
Leon Panetta and Hillary Clinton worked hand in hand over the horrific policy execution in Libya and Syria.  The joint CIA/DoS mission, Operation Zero Footprint, was an outcome of President Obama’s finding memo authorizing the covert mission in Libya.
Panetta is 100% full-on Deep State/Deep Swamp.  Current CIA Director Mike Pompeo is a bridge leading away from the larger Deep State apparatus. The distinction between the two comes out in buckets.
