Geraldo: Benghazi About Running Missiles To Syria

[pspr]

Geraldo Rivera said Friday that his sources tell him the U.S. was involved in a secret mission in Libya to arm the Syrian rebels, which was the reason for the initial secrecy about the attack in Benghazi.

Rivera said on “Fox & Friends” that Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney may have been briefed by then-CIA Director David Petraeus “to suggest that there was a secret mission going on there, that we can’t go there, we can’t talk about it.”

“I believe, and my sources tell me, they were there to round up those shoulder-fired surface-to-air missiles, they were going to hand those missiles over to the Turks and the Turks were going to give them to the rebels in Syria,” Rivera said. “It was like Iran-Contra, I think it merits gigantic investigation, it will all become clear.”

ABC News reported Thursday that the Republican National Committee actually created a Benghazi attack ad, but shelved it after objections from the Romney campaign.

it is looking like glen beck was right from day one.
aaa's speculation about Romney is looking correct also.
Romney may have made the most patriotic - worst decision of his life.

Not surprised in the least.
This matter started off with the video excuse, which any simpleton could see right through. It is getting harder to fool the public, and eventually the country is going to wake up, and signs are it is starting.

If this is true, the patriotic thing to do would have been to expose it. He should have said Obama promised change, and it's just the same old shit. Same playing both sides of the fence. Same getting in bed with the bad guys. Instead he got weak in the knees and folded his hand. IMO, no better leader than the putz we have now, if this is in fact what happened.

Romney didn't have any say on the matter , he was instructed to stay mum.

By the time most wake up it will only be in time to realized they have been chained to their bed.

I hope it's not the same sources he used for Al Capone's "hidden treasure".

That's where he found these guys. In Al Capone's vault.

Seriously, I think he cultivated some military contacts when he was imbedded for all that time with our Iraq war forces.
