Mike at Sipsey Street Irregulars posted this on his blog. He linked to this Breitbart piece on the Benghazi special committe and what conclusions they have drawn.
Money quote:
“The Obama administration effectively switched sides in what used to
be called the Global War on Terror [GWOT] when it decided to overthrow
the sovereign government of our Libyan ally, Muammar Qaddafi, who’d been
helping in the fight against al-Qaeda, by actually teaming up with and
facilitating gun-running to Libyan al-Qaeda and Muslim Brotherhood [MB]
elements there in 2011,” explained Lopez. “This U.S. gun-running policy
in 2011 during the Libyan revolution was directed by [then] Secretary of
State Hillary Clinton and [the late Libya Ambassador] Christopher
Stevens, who was her official envoy to the Libyan AQ rebels.”
And:
“In 2012, the gun-running into Libya turned around and began to flow
outward, from Benghazi to the AQ-and-MB-dominated rebels in Syria,”
Lopez added. “This time, it was the CIA Base of Operations that was in
charge of collecting up and shipping out [surface-to-air missiles] SAMs
from Libya on Libyan ships to Turkey for overland delivery to a variety
of jihadist militias, some of whose members later coalesced into groups
like Jabhat al-Nusra and ISIS [also known as IS]. . .”
