There is a real Benghazi scandal and its this: President Obama - TopicsExpress



          

There is a real Benghazi scandal and its this: President Obama illegally invaded Libya, overthrew Moammar Gadhafi, and then--due to politics--left a power vacuum that terrorists filled, turning Libya into a hotbed of jihadist groups. The 2012 attack that killed four Americans was a consequence of the disorder and violence the administration left in the wake of its drive-by war. The useful lesson from Benghazi isnt about a White House lying (shocking!), but about the inherent messiness of regime change and the impossibility of a quick, clean war. How can I cabin our commitment?! This scandal doesnt begin in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. It begins in Brazil on March 19, 2011. Obama used an audio address from Brazil to announce he was sending the U.S. military into Libyas civil war. He never asked Congress for permission. He didnt even announce it from the Oval Office. He just took us to war as if it wasnt a big deal -- because he wanted it to be a small deal.
