Hillary Clinton: We Lied. The Aim Of Our War On Libya Was Regime Change
Micah Zenko finds a nugget in yesterday's Benghazi hearing of Hillery Clinton:
When asked by Rep. Peter Roskam (R-IL) about a video clip that read, “We came, we saw, he died [meaning former Libyan President Muammar al-Gaddafi]. Is that the Clinton doctrine?” Clinton replied, “No, that was an expression of relief that the military mission undertaken by NATO and our other partners had achieved its end.”
The video clip in question is here and should be watched by everyone to understand what an evil character Hillary Clinton is.
But the point, Zenko says, is that she admits that Obama and Clinton as his Secretary of State lied when they claimed to wage war on Libya for some "humanitarian reasons":
What is now totally forgotten is that regime change WAS NOT the intended military mission of the Libya intervention in March 2011. As President Barack Obama stated in a speech to the nation on March 28, 2011, "The task that I assigned our forces [is] to protect the Libyan people from immediate danger, and to establish a no-fly zone," adding explicitly, "Broadening our military mission to include regime change would be a mistake."
If there are any competent opponents to her candidacy for president they should pick up on this and use it to destroy her: "You want a president that is lying to you about going to war? About getting your sons and daughters killed?"
Someone on this comment board brought up the CFR, and that made me think, about the reach of such special interest groups, and their influence on American politics. What, if it were the CFR that organized what ever it was you would call that silly congressional hearing America witnessed for eleven strange hours this past week. This was that magical moment whereas Madam Clinton would officially launch her 2016 presidential race. Trust me, that so called CNN debate, did nothing for Hillary’s desire to conquer the Democrats presidential nomination. What helped her the most, so far, was her patiently sitting there in order that her inquisitors would grill her with such disrespect, and to what her ardent supporters would consider, a shameless politicizing witch hunt to no end. What did we learn? Mostly, that Sidney Blumenthal is nothing more than some business acquaintance of the Clintons. By the end of this Washington made for TV drama, and for what has been referred too, as the Republicans prosecution of poor Grandma Clinton, I will ask you all once again, what in the heck did we news junky’s all learn, that was new about the 9/11/12 Benghazi attack? Apparently, by it’s mention inside of today’s moonofalabama article, even Hillary’s admission of regime change, in regard to Libya, flew over our American heads. It would be way too much for us Americans to rely on our wonderful corporate news anchors, and pundits, to guarantee something as this regime change admission would be brought to our attention. Something this big could never get reported objectively, with America’s controlled corporate news media. Then they wonder why everyone is clambering to the Internet, to get their news. In the end the Republican congressional representatives looked good to their respective constituency, and Hillary may have guaranteed herself a path to the White House. How great is that, everybody wins.
(As a side note; will President Hillary on day one, order the White House cleaning staff to disinfect the Oval Office? Sorry, just say’n!)
What I cannot get over, with all the fuss over Benghazi, why is no one grilling David Petraeus. After all, it was Petraeus’s CIA compound, where four Americans met their fatal fate. Don’t the good congressional people want to do right by these four brave American heroes, and their families. On any September eleventh day, in any year, wouldn’t it be wise to order an American ambassador to stay inside, especially any ambassadors stationed in one of a few of the Middle Eastern countries, who might have an axe to grind with the U.S.? Okay, I understand, its me, isn’t it? This whole Benghazi episode has the feel of a Brzezinski inspired, Petraeus implemented plan, gone wrong. At that particle time in the 2012 presidential election cycle, a gone wrong plan, would have also reflected badly on a president running for a second term. Webster Tarpley actually points a finger to a covert Mitt in the mix. Although, I’m not completely sold on the Romney involvement, I will buy into a CIA double cross, which brought the revengeful crazies out in force that day. Brzezinski, and Petraeus, love using the bad guy, to fight the other bad guy, and this is where one conniving nobleman could find themselves in a really tight squeeze. I will leave you all with this thought; would a cheating general let out a news leak, about his scandalous sexual affair, in order that said general would escape prosecution for a war crime? Remember, this 2015, and one should never say never, again.

” Competent opponents don’t make any difference in that US 4-yearly circus called an election. It doesn’t bring any change in foreign policy and hardly noticeable change in domestic policy. The only thing the circus brings is a new face, lot’s of promises that never materialize and a brief impression of hope; of change.”?
So the question we should all ask is why? Why does it not make a difference that a leftist such as Obama has promulgated the same kinds of policies as a republican, say, Bush, the younger? Why did Holland in France promoting the same kind of policies as Sarkozy? This repeats in the Western world ad nausea. Well, the only logical explanation is that they are not in control. And the fact that this repeats in other Western “democracies” means that whoever it is (it is a cadre of them, however small in number they are) controls more than one country. So why are we pretending that this is not so?! Why do we berate the politicians? They are paid servants. They are to do what they are told. The “invisible hands” of control – the shadow government, with the aid of the military and security services, sees to it, through various processes, the leading one of which, being blackmail (remember when the Wikileaks came out where it was evident that Mrs. Clinton was demanding the bank accounts numbers, and other very personal information of diplomats from other nations?) I find it odd that so many of you, as intelligent, well-informed, and savvy as you all are, still keep berating politicians as if seemingly believing that the politicians have any choices once they decide to run for office! Mr. Sanders cannot speak against the Empire altogether. Should he so do, he may find himself in “hole lot of trouble”, — as in being able to stay alive. Obama, — the same. I actually think that Mr. Obama is the Manchurian Candidate that the CIA had been working towards, already since decades ago. New technologies are available to selectively brain-wash the human mind – so, when he says certain things, he may very well have been brainwashed to say them – hereto, the genuine sincerity with which he says them, however out-of-character that these pronouncements might be. There shall be no hope for us, for democracy, for decency, for genuine care for humanity, without demolishing the military/CIA, period. They are the higher servants on the totem pole to the “shadowy individuals” who run this world, — or almost all of it – they now want Russia and China, for the eventual total World or Global Autocracy – a project towards which, they have been stealthily and earnestly working for many decades. Again, however sanguine am advising that you all become, I am in no way wishing to conveying disrespect towards any of you, in any way! It is just frustrating to see the weird juxtaposition of great intelligence, education, and savvyness with a suspended disbelief of how world currently really works, and is!
