First Alleged Excerpts From Hacked Hillary Clinton Benghazi Memos Revealed — Do They Explain the Video Story?

Russia Today Leaks Alleged Hacked Hillary Clinton, Blumenthal Benghazi Memos

A hacker known only as “Guccifer” reportedly distributed confidential memos earlier this week between former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her former political adviser Sidney Blumenthal.  The documents were said to contain information shedding light on the September 11 Benghazi attack.

The catch?  The memos were sent to various politicians and members of the media, but none of them wanted to share what they’d received.

Now, Russia Today is spilling part of what they received​ but, as Forbes writes, the information from the “propaganda arm of the Putin regime” should be taken with a grain of salt.

Russia Today begins:

The emails that RT received include four memos that Mr. Blumenthal sent to Mrs. Clinton about the attack, all marked “Confidential” and all containing references to sources speaking on condition of anonymity due to the sheer seriousness of the material. The most recent memo included in the trove is dated February 16, 2013, and includes intelligence that comes “from extremely sensitive sources and should be handled with care.”

The oldest memo sent to RT is dated September 12, 2012 — mere hours after four Americans were killed in a deadly assault on the US consulate building in Benghazi. Chris Stevens, an ambassador for the United States, was among those killed.

An image of one of the purported emails follows, detailing how the Libyan president was “shaken” by the attacks, and gave permission to security forces on the ground to fire over the heads of protesters.

(Photo via Russia Today. The hacker reportedly modified the font and background from the original document.)

But after that comes what many Americans have been curious about since September.  Why did the administration seize upon a video as the cause of the attack, and why did they stick with the story for days?  Well, if the memos are to be believed, it seems Mrs. Clinton may have been receiving memos blaming the video through at least September 12.

Russia Today describes alleged correspondence from the day after the attack (all subsequent emphasis added):

“A senior security officer told [interim Libyan President Mohammed Yussef] el Magariaf that the attacks on that day were inspired by what many devout Libyans viewed as a sacrilegious internet video on the prophet Mohammed originating in America,” the memo reads. “The Libya attacks were also inspired by and linked to an attack on the US mission in Egypt on the same day.”

Elsewhere in the first memo, Blumenthal tells Clinton that another source had even more to say about the assault:

“According to a separate sensitive source, el Magariaf noted that his opponents had often tried to connect him to the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) through the National Front for the Salvation of Libya (NFSL), a group established in opposition to former dictator Muammar al-Gaddafi, which el Magariaf led in the 1980s. In the opinion of this individual el Magariaf believes that he can survive potential negative publicity in this regard, but if this situation continues to develop in this manner it will complicate his efforts to establish an orderly administration in the country. Again, he stated that the attacks on the US missions were as much a result of the atmosphere created by this campaign, as the controversial video.” 

The next memos date to roughly five months later, February 16, and discuss the connection between the Amenas, Algeria and Benghazi attacks:

“This individual adds that this information provided by the French service indicates that the funding for both attacks originated with wealthy Sunni Islamists in Saudi Arabia. During July and August 2012, these financers provided funds to AQIM contacts in Southern Europe, who in turn passed the money into AQIM operatives in Mauritania. These funds were eventually provided to Ansar al Sharia and its allied militias in the Benghazi region in support of their attack on the US consulate. The money was used to recruit operatives and purchase ammunition and supplies.”

[...]

According to the Feb. 2016 memo, the source says that Algerian intelligence agency believe that al-Qaeda and their allies “will continue to strike at Western facilities in the Maghreb [northwest Africa], taking advantage of countries where the security structure is disorganized following the uprisings of the Arab Spring in 2011-2012.”

The hacker “Guccifer” has yet to be identified, but two IP addresses connected to the hacker’s online maneuvers to the Russian Federation, according to The Smoking Gun.  However, this could simply be a way to mask his trail — the emails also seem to have been sent from the (hacked) AOL account of the wife of a Hollywood actor.

Forbes concludes with a warning:

The reader should be warned that these are first and partial accounts of hacked emails that  may be fabricated by someone with a hidden agenda. Time will tell whether they have any credence. The RT selection of excerpts appears to fit into Putin’s agenda. Unhappy with the overthrow of Kaddafi, Putin would want to emphasize the sinister role played by the CIA in Libya. The second memo refutes Obama’s claim of an Al Qaeda on the run by showing an increasingly coordinated pattern of Al Qaeda sponsored attacks throughout the Middle East.

    I am a retired vet myself. I served from Regan thru Bush Jr. You went to a lot of funerals and blame the GOP for it. Let me ask you while you scream of hypocracy. What did Bill Clinton EVER do to stop the rise of terrorism?

    **** He fired missles at a trainign camp and all the gop said was ” wag the dog” so spare me.
    Last i checked 3000 didnt die under Clinton they died under Bush so stay focused man. And before you start with ” Sudan offered Bin Laden to Clinton”please provide proof since in 9-11 commision there was none.

    That is what is funny about the GOP, rahter than take blame and man up they want to go all they way back to Clinton? Just like the housing collapse, the right tried to blame Carter which is nonsense ( I was in mortgage industry and know well about Bush and Roland Arnell plans wiht sub prime mortgages)

      9/11 happened less than a year from when Bush was inaugurated. You have a president today who blames his predecessor for everything and this is year five into his term. Clinton did nothing but show us a weak nation by his lack cajones with black hawk down and the responses to the cole and the African embassy bombings. As far as the sub prime lending it did start with Slick Willy and his HUD goony who just happens to be my waste of life governor right now.

      Sudan’s minister of defense, Fatih Erwa, has claimed that Sudan offered to hand Bin Laden over to the United States.

      The Commission has found no credible evidence that this was so.

      1. There is no corroborating witness that we know about. But Fatih Erwa possibly stuck his neck out.

      2. The 911 commission had Jaime Gorelick on it. That makes it suspect.

      “Arnall and his wife, Dawn, were longtime, generous political contributors, giving to ***both*** parties, according to Federal Election Commission records

      In the 2003-2005 period, Arnall and his wife raised more than $12 million for George W. Bush’s political efforts, including $5 million for the Progress for America Voter Fund, a self-proclaimed “conservative issue advocacy organization dedicated to keeping the issue record straight.” Arnall was quoted as saying his support for Bush stemmed for his stance on Israel. In 2004 he was one of the top 10 donors to the Republican Party”

      Arnall’s contributions to Republican Bush were a ***change of heart****, and the result of Arnall’s support for Bush’s middle east policies post 9/11. Previously, Arnall was a long-time Democratic Party supporter and fundraiser. His wedding to Dawn Arnall was officiated by Democratic California Governor Gray Davis. Arnall was also an ardent supporter and fundraiser for Los Angeles Mayor Democrat Antonio Villaraigosa.

      So Nevermind, a National Labor Relation Board employee wants to smear George W Bush by alleging he was responsible for subprime loans. Typical for a progressive.

      Below is linked an excellent, well written & definitive post on the Iraq War. It is one that aperson who went wobbly after the EAOS like Never-a-Mind will not get. Never-a-Mind can always buy him self a frappuccino & drown his sorrows.

      “THE POPULAR CONSENSUS is that the Iraq War began in March of 2003, although it could very well be argued that it began in January of 1991, when the First Gulf War kicked off. There were very strict terms to the cease fire in 1991 — terms that Saddam Hussein repeatedly violated (e.g. firing SAMs at American aircraft in the no-fly zone; supporting and encouraging terrorist attacks on US soil, including the attempted assassination of President George H. W. Bush; etcetera). Whether Saddam had WMDs or not, he’d spent the better part of a decade convincing the world that he did.

      Regime change and the neutralization of Iraqi WMDs was policy under the Clinton administration, a fact that has been conveniently lost in all the political recrimination …”

      They state clearly that Saudi Islamists funded the attack. Then you’ve got Barry nodding along to corpulent Candy Crowley’s assertion that Barry said it was a terrorist attack the day after the attack, while Barry and Hillary used $90K of tax payer money to take out an ad in “Pah Kee Stahn” to tell the muslims there that it’s a video’s fault.

      These are only the first of the emails to be made public. We shouldn’t be as foolish as you and instantly make assertions without seeing the rest. But clearly the Obama administration is covering something up…the facts speak for themselves.

    2. Therefore, there was no “spontaneous” mob action based on a video.
    3. There was no Intel Report about a “spontaneous” mob that never existed.
    4. The White House and TOP officials at DoS, CIA, and DoD/DIA all were alert to the attack on the evening of 11 Sep 2013.
    5. The Interagency annex in Benghazi had REAL TIME communications Secure Video Teleconferencing connectivity to contact the WH, DoS, CIA, DoD/DIA.
    6. SEVEN hours of an attack and no accountability of our government officials – obama, hillary, petreaus, and panetta.
    7. The host government was telling us that this was a preplanned attack, and not a spontaneous event by irate Islamic movie critics.
    8. ALL this was known BEFORE obama’s sin city campaign trip, the repatriation of remains hangar ceremony, and the infamous Sunday Lying derby by hillary’s stand-in buffoon Susan Rice…

You saw how long it took jets to scramble during 9-11 and how that didnt save anyone yet you would want Obama to do the same which wouldve yielded the same results

    The fact is this, Amb Stevens knew exactly what he was doing and the risks involved, he knew he was selling weapons to rebels and it was risky. I am sorry he lost his life and mourn for his family but lets not pretend he was a little cherub doing gods work.

      The answer to the question as to why some people are predisposed to either a progressive or a conservative world view is NOT deep or mysterious.
      Everybody maneuvers though life learning how to avoid pain and discomfort as we encounter the facts and truths of life. Very young in life, people start favoring one method of resolution over another.
      A psychological pathology develops in the individual as they resort to their preferred method. Over time the the method becomes part of the personality and value system of the individual.

      Identification and Projection.

      Identification is the method by which the individual uses logic to disassemble the problem in order to solve it. This method requires dealing with the problem on it’s terms, any other approach would result in a false resolution. The benefits of “Identification” as the natural means by which to deal with problems are almost arithmetical in that the solved issue serves as the foundation and construct for similar problems to be yet encountered. (once 2 +2 = 4, this will not need re-evaluation.) On the other hand “Identification” also requires an occasional “I don’t know.” Truth is indispensable for a trustworthy solution or work in progress.

      Projection (or projection bias) is a defense mechanism in which one attributes (“projects”) to others,
      one’s own unacceptable or unwanted thoughts or/and emotions. Projection reduces anxiety by allowing the expression of the unwanted subconscious
      impulses/d

      The potential dangers of “Projection” are obvious. The potential for neuroses is ex-acerbated by the individual’s unwillingness to engage in “Identification.” It has been observed that the deeper the investment the more animated and perhaps vitriolic the passion becomes. This is due to an inner understanding within the individual that this less equitable pathology is the operating factor. That is to say that even thought the individual is locked into a projective world view the inner person(subconscious) has some shame at a personal level. Remember, projection reduces anxiety at the surface only the inner person knows full well his/her integrity has been self-compromised. This explains why words like “Honor” “Truth” “Integrity” are almost painful to them.

      The best thing to do to Free thought is divorce. It is funny to hear a progressive whine when they realize you are serious about conservatives & liberals parting ways & dividing up America into 2 countries peacefully.

      No more sugar daffy/wage slave

      No more protect us from evil but with 1 arm tied behind your back.

      No divorce is just fine. Trust me, the close it comes to a reality, the more they will scream like B.

      yeah ummm TURGID_THOUGHT? Your attempt to deflect from my question didn’t make you look less of an idiot.

      So far we’ve got corpulent Candy Crowley saying Barry said it was a terrorist act the day after the attack and Barry nodded his head along. Yet, Barry and Hillary spent $90K on an ad in “Pah Kee Stahn” to tell muslims “sorry it’s not our fault, it’s the video’s fault”. Then these emails clearly state that Saudi Islamist groups funded this “spontaneous” protest.

      So your juvenile quips really aren’t really helping you at this point are they little guy?

    I am soo sick of the GOP obsession wiht Benghazi and it reeks of hypocrisy. 4 americans working wiht the CIA got killed while selling weapons to rebels, i get it. A line was used to cover up a CIA op and it was a lie, i get it. What i dont get is where the outrage fromt he GOP was over the over 3000 service men and women that lost their lives looking for WMD’s in Iraq. 4 weapons contractors and more important than 3000 kids sent to die on a lie?

    The hypocrisy of the GOP is why this story is going nowhere and there isnt anything mroe to know. The CIA was running weapons ( just as they did when USSR was at war in afghanistan, Charlie Wilsons war ring a bell) as it always has and it got messy this time. What kills me is the amount of funerals i had to go to watchign my friends ( i was USAF and served in frist gulf war) get buried and their kids crying over a lie that we knew was a lie.

      I am a retired vet myself. I served from Regan thru Bush Jr. You went to a lot of funerals and blame the GOP for it. Let me ask you while you scream of hypocracy. What did Bill Clinton EVER do to stop the rise of terrorism? Nothing. You claim to have been part of Desert Storm and Desert Shield, so you must be aware of the no fly zones for Operation Northern and Southern Watch, Operation Desert Fox and Desert Scorpian ordered under Bill Clinton. The point you uneducated fool is.. we never left Iraq after the first Gulf War. Shedding tears for that, or are you just another one of the disgruntled Americans thinking we are the evil Empire responsible for all of the world woes. Do your research before you cry me a river, I lost friends as well, but I honor there memories instead of adding insult to injury. Benghazi is relevant because the President failed, then lied about it, period. The world is on fire and you instead of blaming the arsonist, and attempting to provide assistance, you want to blame the boyscout that is actually doing something.

      With regard to the war in Iraq and the alleged “lie” about WMDs, if you had your facts straight you would also recall that one Hillary Rodham Clinton affirmed the existence of WMDs, as did John Kerry. Our involvement wasn’t a unilateral decision by George W Bush – the same Democrap operatives who now are in the State Department were very much in accord with the decision to go in. The failure was not to go in whole-hearted at the outset – the surge worked, but it came way too late in the game. The Benghazi incident showed that the WH is a complete shambles when it comes to leadership – you have a boy-king manchild who has no executive skill and doesn’t have the backbone to take responsibility for anything, and lackeys who are all playing CYA. And it’s pretty sad that they are seeking cover from Putin’s propagandists – I guess they’ve tapped out the propagandists in our own media.

      1. The WMDs are in Syria.
      2. The WMDS where one of several reasons we went to war.
      3. We also have sound bites of current Democrat leaders acting tough on Iraq from the 1990s thru 2003

      4. I have heard of “Charlie Wilson’s War”. I have read it twice. I read it the last fall. I am willing to bet Mike Vickers is all over this.

      The intelligence agency of most countries of the world know we are running guns. Many in Congress know we are running guns. Assad, Khamanei & Putin know we are running guns. Everyone but low information voters know that we are running guns. That is an excuse not to give air support via drones, planes from Italy or aircraft carriers? We send a hell fire missile or other support and plausible deniability is gone?

      What then? Putin launches nukes? Or Putin accuses us of supporting the rebels in the international media & it gets so bad you say “Thankyou sir give me another”?

      I bet you would have left the people of Lima Site 85 hanging too. Whatever, you painted yourself as a traitor.

      And speaking of weapons of mass destruction…. Iraq attacked Iran & their own people with chemical weapons in the 80′s. After 911 we gave Iraq basically 18 months warning that we were coming. When we couldn’t find any, I said of course not. They shipped them to Syria. Now looks like one side or the other, not sure which because I trust neither, has used the weapons. And it is open knowledge that Syria has chemical weapons. So yes, Iraq did have those weapons. And they gave them to Syria. Just like I said 10 years ago.

And now they are covering up. Shouldn’t that be exposed and not covered up? America wants the answer to that question. And we, forget damn DC, WE the people want an answer.

Tell that to Gibson Guitars, whose property was illegally raided by the fed, and their property seized. Tell that to all the victims of govt abuse RIGHT HERE.
