De Omnibus Dubitandum, (Everything is to be questioned!)

This Link will take you to My Commentaries. 

By Rich Kozlovich

 

Well, it's snowing here in northern Ohio, and it's predicted we may get up to 18 inches over the weekend.  That's okay, here in Northern Ohio if you don't like the weather, just stick around it'll change, and next week rain is predicted, which will wash it all away.  It's Ohio, we can live with it, that's what makes us strong, and that makes Ohio the center of America's political universe.    But that's not the story for the week.  

First, all of a sudden the media, Mexico, Canada, Putin, and even Iran are starting to bend.  Remember when Reagan became President Iran decided maybe it was a good idea to release the American hostages, after all, Ronald Reagan wasn't that weenie Carter, and they knew it.  Well, Donald Trump isn't that nitwit Biden, and they know it, and as a result of this election the Pravda media is dying, and screaming all the way down the drain.  Well, too bad, so sad, .....nah.... that's not sad or bad at all, it's triumph.  Perhaps a little Hallelujah Chorus is in order here.  

Canada says they'll impose their own tariffs.  Good luck with that, without America they have no economy. Mexico's president shot off her mouth and then backtracked.  In spite of all the hyperbole about WWIII, nuclear arms, and how no one can prevent that from happening, Putin Says He’s Confident Trump Can Navigate the Ukraine Crisis, Repair America-Russia Ties.  

There have been prominent writers who claim Putin doesn't bluff, I think that's a load of horsepucky.  I've paid a lot of attention to him over the years, and read a lot of Russian history, and he's still practicing what Russian communists have been practicing since they took over, maskirovka, unless he has an overwhelming advantage and doesn't need to bluff to get his way, as when the USSR crushed the Hungarian Revolution in 1956, or the Czech revolt known as the Prague Spring in 1968, where nothing could have stopped Soviet troops from overwhelming those nations.   That's not the case now, and what advantage he had has dissipated massively, at many levels.

Russia was considered the number two military nation in the world, which has been fighting a war against the 22nd military nation in the world for two years, but he's not going to launch nuclear weapons against Ukraine.  He can't take the risk of retaliation, and NATO is talking retaliation, which makes you wonder from where they're getting their natural gas now, and do they really want Warsaw or Berlin to become a nuclear waste land?  

But Putin really doesn't want Moscow to become one, and I don't believe he will take that chance.  I also believe he's facing some internal political issues that scares him. Is there a Claus von Stauffenberg cabal within his military?  Absolutely!  Historically, being Caesar is the scariest most dangerous job in the world, or in this case Czar, without the religious trappings.  

There's always a Stauffenberg cabal, look at what happened to the American military establishment.  Would they take action if he attempted to use nukes?  I think so.  He's not the chess player we thought he was, but that's when he was dealing with nitwits like Obama, but I also don't think he's that stupid either. He's not really all that smart, he's just clever.  Even if there's no retaliation the international consequences will be massive.  He's already destroyed Ukraine far beyond his economic ability to rebuild it, and nukes would merely make it worse, so where's the victory? 

He's failed to defeat Ukraine in two years, and it's clear Russia's military, and especially it's military leadership are not all that after all.  Bad leadership, bad training, bad strategy, poor logistics, terrible planning, lousy intelligence, and stupid arrogant conclusions, all of which has been the problem with Russia for 125 years, going back to the the 1904 Russo/Japanese war, which Russia lost, and then WWI, which they lost.  They only defeated Germany in WWII because Germany was overstretched.... way over stretched....  and America provided much needed hardware, especially the Dodge truck.  

It's been said the Dodge truck saved the Soviet Union, as that allowed Stalin to quickly transport men and material around the country, which he was incapable of doing before that. If Germany had finished off England first, and hadn't declared war on America, Russia would have lost, badly, even with the 30 divisions he had stashed in Eastern Russia to repel a feared Japanese invasion.

This war has exposed just how fragile Russia is economically, industrially, and domestically.  As a result,  Putin's international credibly is in the toilet, and he needs for this war to go away.  He also needs to come out looking good, or at least not as the loser, since in Russia failed leaders aren't well tolerated, and I've no doubt, given the murderous thug he's been, he legitimately fears for his continued existence.  

He also knows France and others are talking about putting boots on the ground, and Trump doesn't want to keep funding Ukraine any longer.  He clearly needs Trump to work some diplomatic magic as he did with the Abrahamic Accords, and that will have to be a multinational agreement that binds Russia to Ukrainian protection, which will require an entire restructuring of Ukraine's government.  Good luck with that, as there are no good guys here, only one worse guy.

There's been a lot of talk about America dumping the UN, and there are those who oppose that.  Well, what we need is clarity.  The UN is a platform for the promotion of a system of tyrannous global governance via schemes such as the  treaty, the Convention of Biodiversity, their gun control initiatives, the efforts by WHO to be able to take global control  in the face of worldwide pandemics, and they will decide what’s a pandemic.  The IPCC and the fraud of global warming, Heritage Sites where America has turned over thousands of acres of land over to UN control, constantly chipping away at the Constitution, the only thing that stands in their way.  That's history, and that history is incontestable.  

Here’s my given all the mischief they're up to, along with all the damage they've done and are doing, and will do in the future at so many levels that America can't veto, and have even been a part of, better to walk away.  If America walks away, the UN will cease to exist, and the world will be no worse off.  But the American taxpayers will save a ton of money.  As it is, we’re funding our own destruction.

Scandals abound, as Biden's DOJ attempts to hide an energy scandal that cost America hundreds of millions of dollars, and now it's been exposed how the Biden administration weaponized the Education Department, specifically targeting career colleges and Christian universities.  AOC has been caught lying as she's been taking lobbyist cash since 2020, and now it appears ...... wait for it ....watch out now ....here it comes ......The Hill Floats AOC as a potential 2028 presidential candidate..... but it gets better and better,... Hillary Clinton might be running in 2028!  Imagine that, misfits, dipsticks, dimwits and halfwits, what a bench. 

Years ago I predicated a massive revolt within the Republican party from the base, and while my timing was off, the prediction was right on, and I think we're going to see it playing out big time this 119th Congress, starting with this Florida House candidate who is already telling "the squad" he's coming after them.  No more Mr. Nice Guy. 

The Gaetz cabal has been bold, aggressive, and fearless, and we're going to see a lot more of that in the next midterms if over the next two years the new RNC aggressively attacks the voter fraud network, and that needs to start with a massive and broad RICO investigation under the deprivation of rights legal concept.   

(A) No public servant, under color of the public servant's office, employment, or authority, shall knowingly deprive, or conspire or attempt to deprive any person of a constitutional or statutory right. (B) Whoever violates this section is guilty of interfering with civil rights, a misdemeanor of the first degree.

However, it can be a felony, and the punishment can be severe. 

I'm betting there's going to be some very unpleasant midterm Republican primary battles, and those battles are going to start right after Trump is sworn in.   

What an interesting week this has been.  I have ten commentaries of my own and twenty four by others with some provocative and interesting views.  Let's start with these two Cartoons of the Day.  Have a good week end!

No matter what anyone says, you can’t marginalize the truth!  You can suppress it, you can ignore it, you can avoid it, you can attempt to undermine it, you can attempt to subvert it, you can attempt to organize against it, you can even laugh at it, but if we have the courage and the fortitude to stand and confront the lies, irrespective of the personal costs, the truth will stand the test of time, because truth and time are on the same side.

Barack Obama’s Legacy is Benghazi

No—this is not going away

 
It’s time for Barack Obama to pay for the murders of Ambassador Christopher Stevens, USFS Sean Smith, and contractors Tyrone S. Woods and Sean Smith. Obama thinks he is home free, but he is not. We the People are not going to let it go.

When President Barack Obama was fraudulently elected using a stolen Connecticut Social Security Number, he faked the oath of office, too. In fact, he had to do it a second time the next day because he screwed it up at the Inauguration ceremony.

He let four men die on September 11, 2012, and he should have both been charged with a crime. It’s not too late.

Everyone knows about the attack on the American diplomatic compound in Benghazi. There was a local militia protecting Ambassador Stevens and Sean Smith, but they ran off when the attack began. CIA contractors a mile away from the compound were ordered to stand down twice. Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty refused and went to help Stevens and Smith.

But why was Stevens and the CIA in Benghazi? Renowned investigative journalist Seymour Hersh cited an anonymous former senior Defense Department Intelligence Official, saying "The consulate's only mission was to provide cover for the moving of arms. It had no real political role." The attack allegedly brought an end to the purported United States involvement, but did not stop the smuggling according to Hersh's source.

The attackers used rocket-propelled grenades, hand grenades, assault rifles, 14.5 mm anti-aircraft machine guns, truck-mounted artillery, diesel canisters and mortars. This was no casual mob and it sounds like Hersh was right.

Despite the weapons involved, and with the Obama administration knowing within 24 hours that it was not a “spontaneous” attack, they sent professional liar Susan Rice to five different Sunday news shows to peddle that lie. The impetus for the attack was allegedly some short video from a previous year about Mohammad. No one bought her bullshit.

John Nolte at Breitbart (September 27, 2012) shared that point of view:

“The false White House narrative blaming the murders on a protest gone bad over a YouTube video never really passed the smell test. But Obama maintained that illusion straight through to his speech before the United Nations two days ago, even as reports surfaced that our government knew al-Qaeda was behind the attack within 24 hours. Apparently, this has become too much to sweep under the rug for some of the mainstream press and Democrats.

“The behavior of Obama and Secretary of State Clinton over the past 14 days is a scandal of the highest order. Lies, cover-ups, and neglect for security of American intelligence and personnel that borders on criminal.”

As Gary Graham said in November 2012, in Breitbart: “Diversion, distraction, smoke-screen obfuscation…one thing you can say about our newly re-elected President, he has more moves than an NFL open-field running back.”

The attack started at 3:42 p.m. E.S.T. (9:42 p.m. Benghazi time) and lasted more than eight hours. Before the attack, a Turkish diplomat, Consul General Ali Sait Akin, left the embassy unharmed. He saw men amassing nearby but was allowed to freely pass. The first alarm to Washington of the attack came at 4:05 p.m.

Obama had a pre-scheduled meeting at about 5:00 p.m. and was made aware of the attack in the fifteen to thirty-minute meeting.

Later when questioned if requests for help were denied, Obama responded: “The minute I found out what was happening, I gave very clear directives. Number one, make sure that we are securing our personnel and doing whatever we need to.”

Karin McQuillan noted it all in American Thinker (November 2, 2012). She added that (Obama) gave the order to the military, the CIA (who was in an annex one mile away) to everyone….”

“Yet the undeniable fact is that nothing was done…So if the President is not lying about his directives….” everyone disobeyed the order of the commander in chief. “And that as commander in chief, Obama did nothing in response to their dereliction of duty.”

Obama disappeared for the rest of the night while the attack continued. He did not ask for an update on the attack. He was next seen the following morning as he was boarding a flight to a fundraiser in Las Vegas.

Help could have been sent immediately to Benghazi. There were substantial U.S. forces at Aviano Air Force Base, Italy. With a refueling in Sigonella, Sicily, F-16s could have arrived in Benghazi in three hours. Former Navy SEALS Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty fought for eight hours.

A source who was in a squadron at Aviano said: “There were people everywhere. That flight line was full of people, and we were all ready to go. Only they were waiting for the order. It never came.”

Was this also another Obama plan that failed? The speculation is that it was to be a simple kidnapping of the ambassador. Obama, with the election only two months away and with tanking poll numbers, needed action to make him look like a tough peace negotiator after a disastrous first four years.

The grand scheme, in which some believe Obama took part, was that Stevens would be kidnapped and traded for Omar Abdel-Rahman, the “Blind Sheik,” who was jailed for the attack on the Twin Towers in 1993. Islam militants wanted him released.

But the Obamaites underestimated the stupidity of the attackers—members of Ansar al-Sharia. They were supposed to use gasoline to start a fire, which would drive occupants from the building into the courtyard, but instead they used diesel fuel. It causes black smoke, making it impossible to see or breathe, and can render someone unconscious within minutes. Gasoline emits a lighter smoke, and people can escape from it. Stevens and Smith were in a safe room but could not see to find their way out. Smith’s body was found; he died from smoke inhalation. Stevens was already dead when his body allegedly was left at a hospital. Other reports said he was found in a ditch.

Outrageously, three weeks after the Benghazi attack, the Obama administration still wanted to release the Blind Sheik from jail. Only a letter from the House Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith stopped it from happening. He died in jail in 2017.

During the attack, Woods and Doherty, under the impression that help was on the way, painted the enemies with lasers to show their location. In doing so, they gave their position away and were killed. They thought help was coming and it should have been.

Former National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor confirmed Obama was not available when the attack was in progress. When asked by the IndyStar (May 8, 2014) where Obama was, he responded: “‘Dude, this was like two years ago.’ Vietor’s juvenile comment…plunged jaws from coast to coast.”

Vietor said he was in the Situation Room that night but Obama wasn’t. When asked again where Obama was, Vietor said: “In the White House but not in the room I was in. I don’t have a tracking device on him…” (This jerk was 34 years old and sounded like a Valley Girl.)

“‘We’ve no info. on the whereabouts of the president the night of the Benghazi attacks,’ one top House staffer (said). “Wish we did.”

In February the 2014 The House Armed Service’s Committee released Majority Interim Report: Benghazi Investigation Update. In it then defense Secretary Leon Panetta and U.S. Army General Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff “testified they had no further contact with the President (after their earlier meeting), nor did Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ever communicate with them that evening.”

It’s time to find out why Obama ignored his duty, his sworn oath, to protect our country and our people. Perhaps president-elect Donald Trump can solve the riddle with the “President’s Daily Diary,” where people signed in. Although people visiting Obama were known not to sign in as required.

From writer Marc Thiessen in the Washington Post, dated May 12, 2014: Outside the Oval Office is the Outer Oval, where staff members keep logs of visitors, length of stay and topics covered. “They even record the president’s bathroom breaks (They write ‘evacuating” into the log.)”

But Thiessen writes there is also a career National Archives employee called the White House Diarist. “This individual preserves them as a minute-by-minute historical record of the presidency for future use by presidential scholars.”

Why did the White House fail to provide the information on Obama? A new congressional select committee on Benghazi needs to subpoena all records. The White House Visitor’s log for September 11, 2012 shows three people meeting that night in what appeared to be a campaign debate session: Michael Donilon, David Ginsburg, and Ron Klain. Subpoena them, too.

As Theissen says: “During Watergate, Richard Nixon. has his infamous 18 1/2 minute gap. When it comes to Benghazi, Obama has an eight-hour gap. That gap needs to be explained.”
