Just how close did Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton come to being indicted for her role in the Whitewater real estate scandal?
The federal government seems to have the answer – and may be ready to go to court to keep the information from ever becoming public.
Judicial Watch, an organization that promotes transparent government, last week filed a federal lawsuit against the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to demand the release of draft indictments against Clinton that were written nearly 20 years ago.
According to a media release from Judicial Watch, on March 9, 2015 the organization submitted a Freedom of Information Act request seeking all draft indictments of Clinton in the files of Hickman Ewing, Jr.
Ewing served as Deputy Independent Counsel from September 1994 – January 2001 and was deeply involved in a federal investigation of Whitewater. He also testified that he wrote a draft indictment of Clinton in 1996.
According to Judicial Watch, the National Archives confirmed that draft indictments of Clinton exist but refused to release the records, apparently in an attempt to protect Clinton’s privacy. The records located by the National Archives are reportedly entitled “Hilary Rodham Clinton/Webster L. Hubbell Draft Indictment.”
Webster Hubbell is a Clinton confidante who served as chief justice of the Arkansas Supreme Court while Bill Clinton was governor.
“Judicial Watch has confirmed the existence of draft indictments of Hillary Clinton for her lies and obstruction in the Whitewater bank fraud investigation,” stated Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton. “The Obama administration is refusing to release these records out of concern for Hillary Clinton’s privacy. Hillary Clinton’s privacy cannot be allowed to trump the public’s interest in knowing more about whether she obstructed justice and lied to a federal grand jury.”
Judicial Watch believes the records include draft indictments, written between 1996 and 1998. The draft indictments reportedly arose out of the Office of Independent Counsel investigation into Clinton’s involvement in an allegedly fraudulent transaction, Castle Grande, involving the assets of Madison Guaranty Savings & Loan.
Clinton was alleged to have drafted an option agreement that concealed from federal bank examiners a fraudulent $300,000 cross-loan to the Castle Grande project. Clinton’s grand jury testimony – and her alleged concealment of her role in this fraudulent transaction, including the hiding of her Rose Law Firm billing records concerning her legal work for Madison – reportedly became the subject of an obstruction of justice and perjury investigation.
In March 1999, Ewing testified that three years prior he had drafted and circulated but abandoned an indictment of Mrs. Clinton.
Ewing said he “had problems” with some of her statements to investigators in April 1995 and drafted an indictment shortly after September 1996. The indictment was ultimately not pursued by federal investigators.
The Whitewater investigation was triggered by a series of failed real estate investments the Clintons made in the Whitewater Development Corporation during the 1970s and 1980s.
Rod wilmoth says
The oboma should be charged with obstructing justice
Bob Grant says
I absolutely agree and why is it that no Senators or Congresspersons are pursuing this? I’m going online and finding every single one of them as well as the FBI and writing them through Twitter to ask why they are not doing their jobs.
Brenda Collins says
I totally agree with you Bob. That’s why everyone is wanting an outsider for POTUS. We voted in the house majority last November and nothing has changed. Now that we’ve got Bohner out, they’re trying to put Paul Ryan, another Bohner, in as SOTH. Big mistake. Everyone should be burning up their Congressman’s phone, fax, emails, etc. and tell them NO TO RYAN!!!
Carolyn Martin says
The Clinton Crime Family. How could anyone vote for her? How stupid are the American People?????????????
Nadia says
Stupidity of majority of Americans was confirmed by choosing Obama for the second term.
Therese Kintzley says
Pretty stupid..They voted obama in twice and thats extremely stupid.
Richard Magnano says
Could you in your wildest dreams ever imagine such? Is it the ease of reacquiring drugs? Is it the education system or ADD (attention deficit disorder)? Or is it just plain herding the human sheep? Animals have MUCH more sense.
FREEDOM says
The Clinton Crime Syndicate is second only to the Federal DC Cesspool….which is the Largest Criminal Organization in the World…

Some of the American people are pretty stupid
doris brooks says
Well..many people voted or that idiot we have in the White House now. Some actually think he is doing a Good job. What has he done? Nothing that helps uis, but he’s done plenty to sell us down the drain.
FRED says
JUST LOOK AT THE POLLS , THAT’S HOW STUPID , HER POLL NUMBERS SHOULD
BE 0% !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wake up. Your point of view ant thst of “ultra conservatives” is just as much of the American political land scape as Bernie Sanders’ point of view. What you do not seem to understand is that in a representive form of government everyone is a minority is some way. Economic, racial, education, political view point, marriage statuw, parential status, and on and on. That means you are only part of a majority when one single issue is “voted up or down” and then you will return to being a minority. Your “boys in congress” are s significant minorty and the rest or this nation is “tired of your point of view being rammed down the throats of the vast majority on Americans.” I am a “monitary conservative” but, I will not have you or any other minority point of view force down my throat and holding a government you did not elect hostage to you very limited point of view. “One of you boys will not be the next speaker” and you will not put the new speaker into a stright jacket because the vast majority of American do not support you narrow government point of view and will not accet it. Elect an outsider? OBAMA WAS AN “OUTSIDER”. He had been in office lesst that 2 years and see what you got from his promised “change”. Find the candicate who is not a clown or has no clue that comprimise is how government get anything done because they have never been part of government. Governing is a skill set just like any other and confrontation to state mate is not part of that skill set. Push beyond reasonable opposition and the majority, which realy out numbers you by 85 to 90% of the populas will wipe you out of the small toe hold you have in congress to put forth you agenda. The 1% and your minority 10% will not control the country once the country is fed up will the “crap”. The Republicans learned how to be the minority party through the 60s and 70s and got a lot of their issues into law but, they did not do it with threats and intimidation. “I will stomp you into the ground tactics”, from a small minorty untimmately results in their being completely destroyed by the 90% majority, even if some of that majority had actually agreed with some of the points of view and plans for the future that the 10% were perposing. Read some history and see how “opression by a minorty against the majority” has “played out”. The “Tea Party” opression tactics will back fire and its entire agenda may well be the casualty, of it own offensive tactics.
Millie Sosa says
Yea, well now we have no other choice. follow the NWO or get someone in there who can get this country back on track. This country has gone straight to you know where and it is going to take STRONG leadership. Maybe it is too far gone. We need to say NO to illegal immigration for one thing. Obama is bringing anyone in here he can to bring us down. Tea Party etc may look extreme but it is only because we have been taken over by the Marxists, Muslims. etc. We need to FIGHT for the principles this country was founded on. Again, it may be too late. God help us!!
Karen says
Did you ever actually “read” the United States Constitution? If you did, you would have seen the following: “The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a ‘Republican’ Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened), against domestic Violence.” Bernie Sanders, according to the Constitution, has violated his oath of office by even declaring he’s a Socialist, as many in the Democratic party have done. We are NOT a Democracy; the United States is a Republic. Alexander Hamilton explains that the Constitution is: “…necessary to the public safety and prosperity. Every man is bound to answer these questions to himself…This is a duty from which nothing can give him dispensation. It is one he is called upon, nay constrained by all the obligations that form the bands of society, to discharge sincerely and honestly. No partial motive, no particular interest, no pride of opinion, no temporary passion or prejudice, will justify to himself, to his country, to his posterity, an improper election to the part he is to act.” Those in our government who profess to be Socialists, or claim to believe we are a Democracy, violate their oaths and ignore the United States Constitution. Their Socialist opinions are just that, their opinions and have NO place in our government. Our boys in Congress, as you put it, are NOT listening to their bosses: We the People, who have been screaming to the rooftops to abide by the Constitution! Our government has been corrupted by Socialists who believe they can do anything they damn well please, and have thus far gotten away with those tactics. There are Conservatives that want the rest to abide by the Constitution and We the Peoples’ requests but they are being beaten down by those who are corrupt. The rest of what you said is just pure rubbish in that the Republican party has become just as corrupt as the Democrats, which is just the bottom line of it all. The Tea Party, for your information, merely wants our government to abide by the Constitution. Oppression tactics are the specialty of our current government, which as I said, is corrupt and being run by Socialists! Fraud occurred involving Obama & Pelosi before he even ran for POTUS. Pelosi had two Certifications of Eligibility documents notarized claiming he was eligible, one for Hawaii and 49 for the rest of the States. One contained mention of “according to the Constitution”, and in the other that wording was omitted. There are many who are guilty in our government, especially in Congress, for when Obama was elected they were all sent a memo that stated: “Just accept Obama.” He was NOT vetted properly and if he had nothing to hide and was truly eligible to be POTUS, his documents would have been unsealed. This, technically, illegal presidency has been the most egregious deception and hoax that has ever been wielded against the American people. As to your comment of “governing is a skill set”, our government was not formed to be run by professional politicians, so that is pure rubbish as well. Our government was designed to be run by ordinary citizens and NOT as a profession for 20-30 year runs in office. No one at this point in time knows what the true answer to our current debacle other than to get those out who are not abiding by the United States Constitution, which is definitely a good 95% of them.

A waste of time. Communicating with ANYONE in the federal government, supposedly our elected representatives, is a TOTAL waste of time, energy and effort. I know this from personal experience. Glad you have so much time in your life to waste on useless projects.

JimT says
The reason Congress is not pursuing this is because of one word (which does not apply to Tea Party types): pusillanimous.
As for Hillary, let us never forget:
From a Canadian . . . (Apparently, they don’t like her either).
Many people who may vote in the democratic primary election, if there is one, and the general election in 2016, have no real knowledge of Mrs. Clinton or her accomplishments. As a public service, I thought I would provide some input regarding her triumphs for consideration. When Bill Clinton was president, he allowed Hillary to assume authority over a health care reform. Even after threats and intimidation, she couldn’t even get a vote in a democratic controlled congress. This fiasco cost the American taxpayers about $13 million in cost for studies, promotion, and other efforts.
Then President Clinton gave Hillary authority over selecting a female attorney general. Her first two selections were Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood – both were forced to withdraw their names from consideration. Next she chose Janet Reno – husband Bill described her selection as “my worst mistake.” Some may not remember that Reno made the decision to gas David Koresh and the Branch Davidian religious sect in Waco, Texas resulting in dozens of deaths of women and children.
Husband Bill allowed Hillary to make recommendations for the head of the Civil Rights Commission. Lani Guanier was her selection. When a little probing led to the discovery of Ms. Guanier’s radical views, her name had to be withdrawn from consideration.
Apparently a slow learner, husband Bill allowed Hillary to make some more recommendations. She chose former law partners Web Hubbel for the Justice Department, Vince Foster for the White House staff, and William Kennedy for the Treasury Department. Her selections went well: Hubbel went to prison, Foster (presumably) committed suicide, and Kennedy was forced to resign.
Many younger voters will have no knowledge of “Travelgate.” Hillary wanted to award unfettered travel contracts to Clinton friend Harry Thompson – and the White House Travel Office refused to comply She managed to have them reported to the FBI and fired. This ruined their reputations, cost them their jobs, and caused a thirty-six month investigation. Only one employee, Billy Dale was charged with a crime, and that of the enormous crime of mixing personal and White House funds. A jury acquitted him of any crime in less than two hours.
Still not convinced of her ineptness, Hillary was allowed to recommend a close Clinton friend, Craig Livingstone, for the position of Director of White House security. When Livingstone was investigated for the improper access of about 900 FBI files of Clinton enemies (Filegate) and the widespread use of drugs by White House staff, suddenly Hillary and the president denied even knowing Livingstone, and of course, denied knowledge of drug use in the White House. Following this debacle, the FBI closed its White House Liaison Office after more than thirty years of service to seven presidents.
Next, when women started coming forward with allegations of sexual harassment and rape by Bill Clinton, Hillary was put in charge of the “bimbo eruption” and scandal defense. Some of her more notable decisions in the debacle were:
* She urged her husband not to settle the Paula Jones lawsuit. After the Starr investigation they settled with Ms. Jones.
* She refused to release the Whitewater documents, which led to the appointment of Ken Starr as Special Prosecutor. After $80 million Dollars of taxpayer money was spent, Starr’s investigation led to Monica Lewinsky, which led to Bill lying about and later admitting his affairs.
* Hillary’s devious game plan resulted in Bill losing his license to practice law for lying under oath to a grand jury and then his subsequent impeachment by the House of Representatives.
* Hillary avoided indictment for perjury and obstruction of justice during the Starr investigation by repeating, “I do not recall,” “I have no recollection,” and “I don’t know” a total of 56 times while under oath.
* After leaving the White House, Hillary was forced to return an estimated $200,000 in White House furniture, China , and artwork that she had stolen.
What a swell party – ready for another four or eight years of this mess?
Now we are exposed to: the destruction of possibly incriminating e-mails while Hillary was Secretary of State and the “pay to play” schemes of the Clinton Foundation – we have no idea what shoe will fall next. But to her loyal fans – “what difference does it make?”
frederick hubbard says
If We should ever take HER to COURT, THEN “JEFF SESSIONS” from Ala. should be placed in charge.
D. Reid says
But we must not forget Bill Clinton’s most magnificent accomplishment…..turning the “OVAL OFFICE”
into the “ORAL OFFICE” !!!!!!!
katie says
I totally agree. How can those Clontons continue to brush all their dealings under the rug and expect forgiveness? They are corrupt and evil and this country does not need another term like these last two have been. Please everyone, vote for the good of the country this time.

OMG!!! I have been beside myself with horror and awe as to why nobody in this country has brought up any of those scandals and her epic failures when her husband was in office!!! Then I read your post and I am like “FINALLY” someone out there gets it!!
Thank you so much for making me feel like I didn’t dream all of that stuff up and I am not a conspiracy nut! I LOVE you, whoever you are, please post, tweet, blog, and share all of this information on as many websites as possible and I will do the same. The INSANITY of this country and Hillary’s clueless followers cannot be what ends up as the final nail in this country’s coffin.
I thank you again and again!!!
Lulu says
Very well said!! If this woman ever gets elected God help us!!
Ralph says
These are facts that those of us who lived during this period know to be true. The amazing thing to me is the so called Conservative news media, doesn’t want to bring this to the public. Clinton should be in jail for many things, but most of all,
For failing to respond to the Ambassadors plea for added security in Benghazi.
We had an Aircraft carrier approximately 400 miles and well within response time.

Thank you, Bob. I have pestered 100 or so friends by e-mail to contact their Congressmen to vote NO for Paul ‘open borders’ Ryan for Speaker. I have repeatedly posted negative comments re his alliance w the open borders fanatic Luis Gutierrez on FB. Because of grass roots pressure, esp through the Freedom Caucus, at least Ryan has backed off from canceling Thomas Jefferson’s rule about the Chair being vacant! We need God’s help! Therefore, we must sanctify ourselves, do penance for our sins. We must acknowledge that all power comes from God, and thank Him for our blessings. Then we must act. Prayer is not enough.
judy says
Let me know which ones and I will do so as well.
They need to do their jobs we put them by voting for them in office and we can assure that if they do not do their jobs we will make sure not to vote for them come election time.
Gary Smith says
I agree they are both liars and crooks
frederick hubbard says
Folks ,
We must remember why Bill and Hillary didn’t move back to
Arkansas, to much to hide . Hillary claims She left Arkansas Broke ?
Don’t believe that woman has ever been broke .
If her and Bill was broke upon leaving the White House after 8 years
of service how can we give them another chance at being broke again ? The Nation is broke, we shouldn’t have to borrow millions per day just to pay off debt, would any money flow back in response
to us when we borrow more money ? a FEW DOLLARS HERE and A FEW DOLLARS their and we pay it on and on .
judy says
absolutely I knew I could not be the only ones that is highly aware of their criminals acts and large amount of lies they tell every time either of them speak.
Dennis B Anderson says
What is this? We have to go back to White Water to get this crook Hillary out of our hair ? Cummings wasting time at this hearing is horse manure when its been waiting on Hillary to comply. $3 million they he was concerned with when Hillary cant account for $3.5 billion she cant account for when she was collecting money for Secretary of State?
frederick hubbard says
It truly would be like putting the Fox in the HEN HOUSE, where did
all the HENS GO ???????????????????????????????????????
Judy smith says
Well, we now know that if the FBI recommends indictment of her current investigation, Obama will not let the DOJ bring her to justice.
judy says
Obama should be charged with obstruction as well as treason. He is hiding criminal acts on Hilliary and most likely others that will appear in time. He should be jailed and key thrown away with no parole. If we or others did the same thing they would charge us, and he is no better than us as matter of fact he is worse since he is an illegal, and should have never gotten to be president he should be disqualified as he has to be naturally born in our country to run our country and known fact he is not, being born in Kenya.
So much I could write but I think you know that yes I know my American history and I read everything on these big liars and crooks both having criminal actions and needs charged for them immediately.

I totally agree, DONALD TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT 2016 at least he is not a criminal, nor a big liar he loves our country more than I can say for the president, Hillary, Bill Clinton or many other politicans. So my whole household is voting for Donald Trump 2016.

The Clintons are very bad people and SHOULD NEVER BE IN OFFICE AGAIN.
Gary Smith says
AGREE!

I agree, no Clintons or bushes should every be in the president capacity again at least in my lifetime.
DockyWocky says
With the known perfidy of Obama at the helm, it is now plausible for Hillary to have a secret indictment, a secret trial, a secret judgement, and a secret sentence – all within a secret week.
I want my country back!
frederick hubbard says
We have to remember OBAMA will pardon HER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????///////.
cherykie says
Exactly!!! And I hope this is the reason she and hopefully many more criminal liberals are being “ignored” by the conservative side. If any one of 0bama’s partners in crime were found guilty, he would give them a full pardon at the end of his term and they would never have to fully pay for their crimes. If he got run out of the presidency, Biden would free 0bama…so….getting in a conservative president is important to make it possible for the communists to be rightfully charged for their multitude of crimes .
Hugh Buckingham says
Lay off our next President. No doubt some poor elephant is digging up this “Whitewater” crap again as if the Clintons could possibly be the only Crapitalists!!!! In our wickedly greedy Objectivist Ayn Rand crapitalism, let her, who is without sin (restrictive relative clause) cast the first gall stone.
Chris Headley says
Hildabeast is a criminal and so is Alibama who needs to be impeached by congress but most in congress need to be impeached as well. The only representatives in congress and the house who stand for the constitution are the conservative ones. They are the only ones. The rest need to be removed from office and replaced by those voted with constitutional values only.
Melody says
When is someone going to have the integrity to stand up like a big boy and bring down the evil Clinton duo and the current puppet master, Obama? God Bless America. What have they done with our country?
Hilda E. Davis says
Thank you for telling it like it is. Action needs to be taken immediately, not later.
The Lying Illegal Gay Muslim sitting in our White House needs to go asap and I think putting them both in GITMO is the action needed right now. What he has finished in trying to destroy our great nation, she would finish for sure.
Anne Stiefel says
Very well said.
Maxx says
What is sad is that in a country established by geniuses it is now controlled and run by morons. Technically America operated within the bounds and guidelines of the Founding Fathers as a democratic republic for a very short time; 1776 – 1861. The minute Abraham Lincoln sent Union Army troops into the south the democratic republic ended died. Ever since that time “we the people” no longer had power over the federal government.
Darl Krtetsinger says
Our current “leaders” are not morons. They know exactly what they are doing. If you question that, read; “Rules For Radicals,” by Saul Alinsky, The “Communist Manifesto” by Karl Marx and Josef Engles, Also, don’t forget Mao Tse-Tung;s “Little Red Book” They will explain a lot of what is going on in our country right now and for the last 150 years or so. What the left fears most is an armed and informed citizen!

About the best question I can think of is, WILL HILLERY Clinton CONTROL OUR NUCLEAR ARSENAL WITH HER CELL PHONE & PERSONAL SERVER, FOR PERSONAL CONVENIANCE?
That is SCARY.

Possibly — probably — because millions of people wearing blinders LOVE her and with diehard enthusiasm, want her to be the next POTUS. I am not kidding. This is no joke, except on all of us who cannot stand her.
tonyn says
Hilary had the Ambassador and the CIA in Libya gathering up Gaddafi’s weapons and sending them to Syria to overthrow that dictator and the UN was looking the other way on the Arms Embargo they had on Libya , and the opposition went after the weapons and this is the cover up because if this went public it would create a isolating effect between NATO and the UN due to Public out cry , so the Ambassador and the Team were left to fend for themselves because sending in more forces would have shined the light on this fiasco of a foreign policy !!!!!!!!!!

wait till Obama declares marshal law there will be no election only a supreme Hitler as our ruler
david s hovda says
the biggest scandal of all is the dairy cattle bonanza of 1980 when that crook made over a million dollars on the cattle disaster. the democrat govenors of cal ark florida just to name a few got insider info that they were goingt to put out , that is usda information about how many dairy cows were bought in . then hit the market on a Friday with the actual and the market would tank!!!! Hillarious Hillary had over 40 short cattle contracts of 40,000 lb s off hanging beef that would have taken $250,000 of margin money, Where did she get that kind of money after white water? the damn crook got it from those chicken guys called you know ark chicken. would they give you quarter of a million to speculate on orange juice? Go figure that one out . Now that is a scndal of all sandalls.!!!! they threw Martha Stewert in jail , how about this Hillarious Crook!!!!
Kenneth L Neal says
If they have the goods on Hiliary then they should throw the book at her and put her where she belongs. Remember Slick Willie, well he is still with her and he advises her on every thing. I am tired of all the news about Hiliary, put an end to her NOW.
Tommy Kelly says
It’s an interesting point. You know that Billy, while he was POTUS, was not about to allow an indictment to be brought forth again his own wife (no matter what their personal non-relationship in the bedroom). I have no idea why this “business” did not come out at any point during the eight years of W as POTUS. Now, all these years later, here we are again. Although there might be (and appears to be) bad blood between Obama and Hillary, I cannot imagine Obama allowing such an indictment to be brought forth against such a powerful Democrat, one who, in my estimation, has about a 70-30 chance of being the next POTUS.
Hap Harris says
Once Hillary is elected she will then be able to pardon herself.
Jeannine Smock says
One can only pray she is indicted there should not be one set of laws and rules for the very rich and for us ordinary people
Troy says
The Clintons will never be prosecuted because the individuals who would have to pursue it are just as guilty of something. This is a case of pure political corruption at all levels and in all parties. They all live in glass houses and no one is willing to cast the fist stone of redemption.

That’s why they all need to go and we need a Trump type outsider to expose the whole system and attempt to change things.
patrick Simoniello says
The Clintons are Teflon nothing sticks. I fail to understand why? I thought she would be charged for perjury before the Benghazi hearings but even in view of the fact that she outright lied multiple times during the hearing it was passed over and she came out better than when she walked it.
Jo Anne Mackey says
How can this be posted to Face Book and You Tube?
Justin Wachin says
By now the statute of limitations has likely run out on the crimes she might be accused of committing. Do we really want to create a climate where draft indictments are released? It could be possible the indictments were never made because the prosecutors realized they didn’t have the evidence to successfully prosecute the case. Since the statute of limitations would prevent a trial, Ms. Clinton would not have the opportunity to clear her name in a court of law.
I’m not a Clinton fan, but I don’t want to see our political system become something which destroys the character of those who run for office. Looking out lots of the current officeholders it is safe to surmise our nation’s best and brightest have chosen not to enter politics.
Linda says
The Bilderbergers (Bill & Hillary attended at least one of these meetings – so, probably all of them.)
Even though many still deny their very existence, the fact is… in 1954 the most powerful men in the world met for the first time under the auspices of the Dutch royal crown and the Rockefeller family in the luxurious Hotel Bilderberg of the small Dutch town of Oosterbeck. For an entire weekend they debated the future of the world. When it was over, they decided to meet once every year to exchange ideas and analyze international affairs.
They named themselves the Bilderberg Club. Since then, they have gathered yearly in a luxurious hotel somewhere in the world arrogantly plotting the subversion and silent takeover of constitutional governments everywhere. Their goal is a World Government run exclusively by their hand-picked puppets.
Bilderberg founding member and, for 30 years, a steering committee member, Denis Healey said, “To say we were striving for a one-world government is exaggerated, but not wholly unfair. Those of us in Bilderberg felt we couldn’t go on forever fighting one another for nothing and killing people and rendering millions homeless. So we felt that a single community throughout the world would be a good thing.”
More video about the Bilderberg Group
Shrewd and calculating, their hearts are filled with lust for power and consumed by greed for money. Rich and aristocratic, they despise Christians and they loathe the lowly working class. They control the world’s press and virtually all our banks and financial institutions. They screen and choose who America’s leaders will be and even determine who will run on the Democratic and Republican Party tickets.
Among the elitist membership or attendees at Bilderberg meetings is David Rockefeller, Henry Kissinger, Lloyd Bentsen, Helmut Kohl, Prince Charles, Prince Juan Carlos I of Spain, Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, Katharine Graham, Alice Rivlin, Gerald Ford, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Dan Quayle, Donald Rumsfeld, Colin L. Powell, John Edwards, Bill Bradley, Bill Richardson, Christopher Dodd, Dianne Feinstein, Kathleen Sebelius, Alexander Haig, Ralph E. Reed, George Stephanopoulos, William J McDonough (former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York), U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner, George Soros, Paul Volcker & Alan Greenspan (former Chairman of the Federal Reserve), Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, World Bank president Robert Zoellick, H. J. Heinz II (CEO of H. J. Heinz Company), Peter A. Thiel (Co-Founder, PayPal), Hillary ClintonEric E. Schmidt (Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Google), Lloyd Blankfein (CEO of Goldman Sachs), Rupert Murdoch, Donald E. Graham (Chairman of the Board of The Washington Post Company), William F. Buckley, Jr. (founder of National Review and former host of Firing Line), Peter Jennings, George Will, Lesley Stahl, Bill D. Moyers, and many others. The list includes prominent persons in politics, the military, financial institutions, major corporations, academia, and the media.
Leaders of the Bilderberg Club argue that discretion is necessary to allow participants in the debates to speak freely without being on the record or reported publicly. Wikipedia recently deleted the Bilderberg attendees list, citing it to be possibly defamatory towards living persons.

Why are the Davos World Economic Forum and G8 meetings carried in every newspaper, given front page coverage, with thousands of journalists in attendance, while no one covers Bilderberg Club meetings even though they are annually attended by Presidents of the International Monetary Fund, The World Bank, Federal Reserve, chairmen of 100 most powerful corporations in the world such as DaimlerChrysler, Coca Cola, British Petroleum, Chase Manhattan Bank, American Express, Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, Vice Presidents of the United States, Directors of the CIA and the FBI, General Secretaries of NATO, American Senators and members of Congress, European Prime Ministers and leaders of opposition parties, top editors and CEOs of the leading newspapers in the world.

Watergate-era Judiciary chief of staff:
Hillary Clinton fired for lies, unethical behavior
Published by: Dan Calabrese on Wednesday January 23rd, 2013
By DAN CALABRESE – Bet you didn’t know this.
I’ve decided to reprint a piece of work I did nearly five years ago, because it seems very relevant today given Hillary Clinton’s performance in the Benghazi hearings. Back in 2008 when she was running for president, I interviewed two erstwhile staff members of the House Judiciary Committee who were involved with the Watergate investigation when Hillary was a low-level staffer there. I interviewed one Democrat staffer and one Republican staffer, and wrote two pieces based on what they told me about Hillary’s conduct at the time.
I published these pieces back in 2008 for North Star Writers Group, the syndicate I ran at the time. This was the most widely read piece we ever had at NSWG, but because NSWG never gained the high-profile status of the major syndicates, this piece still didn’t reach as many people as I thought it deserved to. Today, given the much broader reach of CainTV and yet another incidence of Hillary’s arrogance in dealing with a congressional committee, I think it deserves another airing. For the purposes of simplicity, I’ve combined the two pieces into one very long one. If you’re interested in understanding the true character of Hillary Clinton, it’s worth your time to read it.
As Hillary Clinton came under increasing scrutiny for her story about facing sniper fire in Bosnia, one question that arose was whether she has engaged in a pattern of lying.
The now-retired general counsel and chief of staff of the House Judiciary Committee, who supervised Hillary when she worked on the Watergate investigation, says Hillary’s history of lies and unethical behavior goes back farther – and goes much deeper – than anyone realizes.
Jerry Zeifman, a lifelong Democrat, supervised the work of 27-year-old Hillary Rodham on the committee. Hillary got a job working on the investigation at the behest of her former law professor, Burke Marshall, who was also Sen. Ted Kennedy’s chief counsel in the Chappaquiddick affair. When the investigation was over, Zeifman fired Hillary from the committee staff and refused to give her a letter of recommendation – one of only three people who earned that dubious distinction in Zeifman’s 17-year career.
Why?
“Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said in an interview last week. “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”
How could a 27-year-old House staff member do all that? She couldn’t do it by herself, but Zeifman said she was one of several individuals – including Marshall, special counsel John Doar and senior associate special counsel (and future Clinton White House Counsel) Bernard Nussbaum – who engaged in a seemingly implausible scheme to deny Richard Nixon the right to counsel during the investigation.
Why would they want to do that? Because, according to Zeifman, they feared putting Watergate break-in mastermind E. Howard Hunt on the stand to be cross-examined by counsel to the president. Hunt, Zeifman said, had the goods on nefarious activities in the Kennedy Administration that would have made Watergate look like a day at the beach – including Kennedy’s purported complicity in the attempted assassination of Fidel Castro.
The actions of Hillary and her cohorts went directly against the judgment of top Democrats, up to and including then-House Majority Leader Tip O’Neill, that Nixon clearly had the right to counsel. Zeifman says that Hillary, along with Marshall, Nussbaum and Doar, was determined to gain enough votes on the Judiciary Committee to change House rules and deny counsel to Nixon. And in order to pull this off, Zeifman says Hillary wrote a fraudulent legal brief, and confiscated public documents to hide her deception.
The brief involved precedent for representation by counsel during an impeachment proceeding. When Hillary endeavored to write a legal brief arguing there is no right to representation by counsel during an impeachment proceeding, Zeifman says, he told Hillary about the case of Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas, who faced an impeachment attempt in 1970.
“As soon as the impeachment resolutions were introduced by (then-House Minority Leader Gerald) Ford, and they were referred to the House Judiciary Committee, the first thing Douglas did was hire himself a lawyer,” Zeifman said.
The Judiciary Committee allowed Douglas to keep counsel, thus establishing the precedent. Zeifman says he told Hillary that all the documents establishing this fact were in the Judiciary Committee’s public files. So what did Hillary do?
“Hillary then removed all the Douglas files to the offices where she was located, which at that time was secured and inaccessible to the public,” Zeifman said. Hillary then proceeded to write a legal brief arguing there was no precedent for the right to representation by counsel during an impeachment proceeding – as if the Douglas case had never occurred.
The brief was so fraudulent and ridiculous, Zeifman believes Hillary would have been disbarred if she had submitted it to a judge.
Zeifman says that if Hillary, Marshall, Nussbaum and Doar had succeeded, members of the House Judiciary Committee would have also been denied the right to cross-examine witnesses, and denied the opportunity to even participate in the drafting of articles of impeachment against Nixon.
Of course, Nixon’s resignation rendered the entire issue moot, ending Hillary’s career on the Judiciary Committee staff in a most undistinguished manner. Zeifman says he was urged by top committee members to keep a diary of everything that was happening. He did so, and still has the diary if anyone wants to check the veracity of his story. Certainly, he could not have known in 1974 that diary entries about a young lawyer named Hillary Rodham would be of interest to anyone 34 years later.
But they show that the pattern of lies, deceit, fabrications and unethical behavior was established long ago – long before the Bosnia lie, and indeed, even before cattle futures, Travelgate and Whitewater – for the woman who is still asking us to make her president of the United States.
Franklin Polk, who served at the time as chief Republican counsel on the committee, confirmed many of these details in two interviews he granted me this past Friday, although his analysis of events is not always identical to Zeifman’s. Polk specifically confirmed that Hillary wrote the memo in question, and confirmed that Hillary ignored the Douglas case. (He said he couldn’t confirm or dispel the part about Hillary taking the Douglas files.)
To Polk, Hillary’s memo was dishonest in the sense that she tried to pretend the Douglas precedent didn’t exist. But unlike Zeifman, Polk considered the memo dishonest in a way that was more stupid than sinister.
“Hillary should have mentioned that (the Douglas case), and then tried to argue whether that was a change of policy or not instead of just ignoring it and taking the precedent out of the opinion,” Polk said.
Polk recalled that the attempt to deny counsel to Nixon upset a great many members of the committee, including just about all the Republicans, but many Democrats as well.
“The argument sort of broke like a firestorm on the committee, and I remember Congressman Don Edwards was very upset,” Polk said. “He was the chairman of the subcommittee on constitutional rights. But in truth, the impeachment precedents are not clear. Let’s put it this way. In the old days, from the beginning of the country through the 1800s and early 1900s, there were precedents that the target or accused did not have the right to counsel.”
That’s why Polk believes Hillary’s approach in writing the memorandum was foolish. He says she could have argued that the Douglas case was an isolated example, and that other historical precedents could apply.
But Zeifman says the memo and removal of the Douglas files was only part the effort by Hillary, Doar, Nussbaum and Marshall to pursue their own agenda during the investigation.
After my first column, some readers wrote in claiming Zeifman was motivated by jealousy because he was not appointed as the chief counsel in the investigation, with that title going to Doar instead.
Zeifman’s account is that he supported the appointment of Doar because he, Zeifman, a) did not want the public notoriety that would come with such a high-profile role; and b) didn’t have much prosecutorial experience. When he started to have a problem with Doar and his allies was when Zeifman and others, including House Majority Leader Tip O’Neill and Democratic committee member Jack Brooks of Texas, began to perceive Doar’s group as acting outside the directives and knowledge of the committee and its chairman, Peter Rodino.
(O’Neill died in 1994. Brooks is still living and I tried unsuccessfully to reach him. I’d still like to.)
This culminated in a project to research past presidential abuses of power, which committee members felt was crucial in aiding the decisions they would make in deciding how to handle Nixon’s alleged offenses.
According to Zeifman and other documents, Doar directed Hillary to work with a group of Yale law professors on this project. But the report they generated was never given to the committee. Zeifman believes the reason was that the report was little more than a whitewash of the Kennedy years – a part of the Burke Marshall-led agenda of avoiding revelations during the Watergate investigation that would have embarrassed the Kennedys.
The fact that the report was kept under wraps upset Republican committee member Charles Wiggins of California, who wrote a memo to his colleagues on the committee that read in part:
Within the past few days, some disturbing information has come to my attention. It is requested that the facts concerning the matter be investigated and a report be made to the full committee as it concerns us all.
Early last spring when it became obvious that the committee was considering presidential “abuse of power” as a possible ground of impeachment, I raised the question before the full committee that research should be undertaken so as to furnish a standard against which to test the alleged abusive conduct of Richard Nixon.
As I recall, several other members joined with me in this request. I recall as well repeating this request from time to time during the course of our investigation. The staff, as I recall, was noncommittal, but it is certain that no such staff study was made available to the members at any time for their use.
Wiggins believed the report was purposely hidden from committee members. Chairman Rodino denied this, and said the reason Hillary’s report was not given to committee members was that it contained no value. It’s worth noting, of course, that the staff member who made this judgment was John Doar.
In a four-page reply to Wiggins, Rodino wrote in part:
Hillary Rodham of the impeachment inquiry staff coordinated the work. . . . After the staff received the report it was reviewed by Ms. Rodham, briefly by Mr. Labovitz and Mr. Sack, and by Doar. The staff did not think the manuscript was useful in its present form. . . .
In your letter you suggest that members of the staff may have intentionally suppressed the report during the course of its investigation. That was not the case.
As a matter of fact, Mr. Doar was more concerned that any highlight of the project might prejudice the case against President Nixon. The fact is that the staff did not think the material was usable by the committee in its existing form and had not had time to modify it so it would have practical utility for the members of the committee. I was informed and agreed with the judgment.
Mr. Labovitz, by the way, was John Labovitz, another member of the Democratic staff. I spoke with Labovitz this past Friday as well, and he is no fan of Jerry Zeifman.
“If it’s according to Zeifman, it’s inaccurate from my perspective,” Labovitz said. He bases that statement on a recollection that Zeifman did not actually work on the impeachment inquiry staff, although that is contradicted not only by Zeifman but Polk as well.
Labovitz said he has no knowledge of Hillary having taken any files, and defended her no-right-to-counsel memo on the grounds that, if she was assigned to write a memo arguing a point of view, she was merely following orders.
But as both Zeifman and Polk point out, that doesn’t mean ignoring background of which you are aware, or worse, as Zeifman alleges, confiscating documents that disprove your argument.
All told, Polk recalls the actions of Hillary, Doar and Nussbaum as more amateurish than anything else.
“Of course the Republicans went nuts,” Polk said. “But so did some of the Democrats – some of the most liberal Democrats. It was more like these guys – Doar and company – were trying to manage the members of Congress, and it was like, ‘Who’s in charge here?’ If you want to convict a president, you want to give him all the rights possible. If you’re going to give him a trial, for him to say, ‘My rights were denied,’ – it was a stupid effort by people who were just politically tone deaf. So this was a big deal to people in the proceedings on the committee, no question about it. And Jerry Zeifman went nuts, and rightfully so. But my reaction wasn’t so much that it was underhanded as it was just stupid.”
Polk recalls Zeifman sharing with him at the time that he believed Hillary’s primary role was to report back to Burke Marshall any time the investigation was taking a turn that was not to the liking of the Kennedys.
“Jerry used to give the chapter and verse as to how Hillary was the mole into the committee works as to how things were going,” Polk said. “And she’d be feeding information back to Burke Marshall, who, at least according to Jerry, was talking to the Kennedys. And when something was off track in the view of the Kennedys, Burke Marshall would call John Doar or something, and there would be a reconsideration of what they were talking about. Jerry used to tell me that this was Hillary’s primary function.”
Zeifman says he had another staff member get him Hillary’s phone records, which showed that she was calling Burke Marshall at least once a day, and often several times a day.
A final note about all this: I wrote my first column on this subject because, in the aftermath of Hillary being caught in her Bosnia fib, I came in contact with Jerry Zeifman and found his story compelling. Zeifman has been trying to tell his story for many years, and the mainstream media have ignored him. I thought it deserved an airing as a demonstration of how early in her career Hillary began engaging in self-serving, disingenuous conduct.
Disingenuously arguing a position? Vanishing documents? Selling out members of her own party to advance a personal agenda? Classic Hillary. Neither my first column on the subject nor this one were designed to show that Hillary is dishonest. I don’t really think that’s in dispute. Rather, they were designed to show that she has been this way for a very long time – a fact worth considering for anyone contemplating voting for her for president of the United States.
By the way, there’s something else that started a long time ago.
“She would go around saying, ‘I’m dating a person who will some day be president,’” Polk said. “It was like a Babe Ruth call. And because of that comment she made, I watched Bill Clinton’s political efforts as governor of Arkansas, and I never counted him out because she had made that forecast.”
Bill knew what he wanted a long time ago. Clearly, so did Hillary, and her tactics for trying to achieve it were established even in those early days.
Vote wisely.
Hillary’s Crocodile Tears in Connecticut
Jerry Zeifman — February 5, 2008
I have just seen Hillary Clinton and her former Yale law professor both in tears at a campaign rally here in my home state of Connecticut. Her tearful professor said how proud he was that his former student was likely to become our next President. Hillary responded in tears.
My own reaction was of regret that, when I terminated her employment on the Nixon impeachment staff, I had not reported her unethical practices to the appropriate bar associations.
Hillary as I knew her in 1974
At the time of Watergate I had overall supervisory authority over the House Judiciary Committee’s Impeachment Inquiry staff that included Hillary Rodham-who was later to become First Lady in the Clinton White House.
During that period I kept a private diary of the behind the scenes congressional activities. My original tape recordings of the diary and other materials related to the Nixon impeachment provided the basis for my prior book Without Honor and are now available for inspection in the George Washington University Library.
Published in 1996 – Still available from Amazon.com
After President Nixon’s resignation a young lawyer, who shared an office with Hillary, confided in me that he was dismayed by her erroneous legal opinions and efforts to deny Nixon representation by counsel-as well as an unwillingness to investigate Nixon. In my diary of August 12, 1974 I noted the following:
John Labovitz apologized to me for the fact that months ago he and Hillary had lied to me [to conceal rules changes and dilatory tactics.] Labovitz said, “That came from Yale.” I said, “You mean Burke Marshall [Senator Ted Kennedy’s chief political strategist, with whom Hillary regularly consulted in violation of House rules.] Labovitz said, “Yes.” His apology was significant to me, not because it was a revelation but because of his contrition.
At that time Hillary Rodham was 27 years old. She had obtained a position on our committee staff through the political patronage of her former Yale law school professor Burke Marshall and Senator Ted Kennedy. Eventually, because of a number of her unethical practices I decided that I could not recommend her for any subsequent position of public or private trust.
Her patron, Burke Marshal, had previously been Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights under Robert Kennedy. During the Kennedy administration Washington insiders jokingly characterized him as the Chief counsel to the Irish Mafia. After becoming a Yale professor he also became Senator Ted Kennedy’s lawyer at the time of Chappaquidick-as well as Kennedy’s chief political
strategist. As a result, some of his colleagues often described him as the Attorney General in waiting of the Camelot government in exile.
In addition to getting Hillary a job on the Nixon impeachment inquiry staff, Kennedy and Marshall had also persuaded Rodino to place two other close friends of Marshall in top positions on our staff. One was John Doar; who had been Marshall’s deputy in the Justice Department-whom Rodino appointed to head the impeachment inquiry staff. The other was Bernard Nussbaum, who had served as Assistant U.S. Attorney in New York-who was placed in charge of conducting the actual investigation of Nixon’s malfeasance.
Marshall, Doar, Nussbaum, and Rodham had two hidden objectives regarding the conduct of the impeachment proceedings. First, in order to enhance the prospect of Senator Kennedy or another liberal Democrat being elected president in 1976 they hoped to keep Nixon in office “twisting in the wind” for as long as possible. This would prevent then-Vice President Jerry Ford from becoming President and restoring moral authority to the Republican Party.
As was later quoted in the biography of Tip O’Neill (by John Farrell), a liberal Democrat would have become a “shoe-in for the presidency in 1976 if Nixon had been kept in office until the end of his term. However, both Tip O’Neill and I-as well as most Democrats-regarded it to be in the national interest to replace Nixon with Ford as soon as possible. As a result, as described by O’Neill, we coordinated our efforts to “keep Rodino’s feet to the fire.”
A second objective of the strategy of delay was to avoid a Senate impeachment trial, in which as a defense Nixon might assert that Kennedy had authorized far worse abuses of power than Nixon’s effort to “cover up” the Watergate burglary (which Nixon had not authorized or known about in advance). In short, the crimes of Kennedy included the use of the Mafia to attempt to assassinate Castro, as well as the successful assassinations of Diem in Vietnam and Lumumba in the Congo.
After hiring Hillary, Doar assigned her to confer with me regarding rules of procedure for the impeachment inquiry. At my first meeting with her I told her that Judiciary Committee Chairman Peter Rodino, House Speaker Carl Albert, Majority Leader Tip O’Neill, Parliamentarian Lou Deschler and I had previously all agreed that we should rely only on the then existing House Rules, and not advocate any changes. I also quoted Tip O’Neill’s statement that: “To try to change the rules now would be politically divisive. It would be like trying to change the traditional rules of baseball before a World Series.”
Hillary assured me that she had not drafted, and would not advocate, any such rules changes. However, as documented in my personal diary, I soon learned that she had lied. She had already drafted changes, and continued to advocate them. In one written legal memorandum, she advocated denying President Nixon representation by counsel. In so doing she simply ignored the fact that in the committee’s then-most-recent prior impeachment proceeding, the committee had afforded the right to counsel to Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas.
I had also informed Hillary that the Douglas impeachment files were available for public inspection in the committee offices. She later removed the Douglas files without my permission and carried them to the offices of the impeachment inquiry staff-where they were no longer accessible to the public.
Hillary had also made other ethically flawed procedural recommendations, arguing that the Judiciary Committee should: not hold any hearings with-or take depositions of-any live witnesses; not conduct any original investigation of Watergate, bribery, tax evasion, or any other possible impeachable offense of President Nixon; and should rely solely on documentary evidence compiled by other committees and by the Justice Department’s special Watergate prosecutor.
Only a few far-left Democrats supported Hillary’s recommendations. A majority of the committee agreed to allow President Nixon to be represented by counsel and to hold hearings with live witnesses. Hillary then advocated that the official rules of the House be amended to deny members of the committee the right to question witnesses. This recommendation was voted down by the full House. The committee also rejected her proposal that we leave the drafting of the articles of impeachment to her and her fellow impeachment-inquiry staffers.
It was not until two months after Nixon’s resignation that I first learned of still another questionable role of Hillary. On Sept. 26, 1974, Rep. Charles Wiggins, a Republican member of the committee, wrote to ask Chairman Rodino to look into “a troubling set of events.” That spring, Wiggins and other committee members had asked “that research should be undertaken so as to furnish a standard against which to test the alleged abusive conduct of Richard Nixon.” And, while “no such staff study was made available to the members at any time for their use,” Wiggins had just learned that such a study had been conducted-at committee expense-by a team of professors who completed and filed their reports with the impeachment-inquiry staff well in advance of our public hearings.
The report was kept secret from members of Congress. But after the impeachment-inquiry staff was disbanded, it was published commercially and sold in book stores. Wiggins wrote: “I am especially troubled by the possibility that information deemed essential by some of the members in their discharge of their responsibilities may have been intentionally suppressed by the staff during the course our investigation.” He was also concerned that staff members may have unlawfully received royalties from the book’s publisher.
On Oct. 3, Rodino wrote back: “Hillary Rodham of the impeachment-inquiry staff coordinated the work. The staff did not think the manuscript was useful in its present form.” No effort was ever made to ascertain whether or not Hillary or any other person on the committee staff received royalties.
Two decades later Bill Clinton became President. As was later to be described in the Wall Street Journal by Henry Ruth, the lead Watergate courtroom prosecutor, “The Clintons corrupted the soul of the Democratic Party.”
1/23/13: There were fireworks on Capitol Hill this morning as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton finally took the stand to testify in front of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on what happened in Benghazi on September 11, 2012.
Emotions ran far and wide, with Secretary Clinton choking back tears while reading her pre-prepared opening statements:
CLINTON: “ I stood next to President Obama as the Marines carried those flag-draped caskets off the plane at Andrews. I put my arms around the mothers and fathers, the sisters and brothers, the sons and daughters, and the wives left alone to raise their children.”
Her tone took a turn, however, during questioning by Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wi). Sen. Johnson insisted that Americans were “misled” about what occurred leading up to the storming of the U.S. embassy in Benghazi. After a heated back and forth, Clinton lost her cool, shouting:
CLINTON: “With all respect, the fact is we have four dead Americans was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided they’d go kill some Americans. What difference at this point does it make? It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, senator.”
As of now, it is unclear to what degree Secretary Clinton’s remarks will impact the Benghazi investigation or shed any light on what happened that tragic day, though it’s promising that after a long and winding road she was finally able to make herself available to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
Media ignore Hillary’s bombshell Benghazi claim
Insists she did not know about gun-running at U.S. mission
1/24/13
by Aaron Klein
Aaron Klein is WND’s senior staff reporter and Jerusalem bureau chief. He also hosts “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio” on New York’s WABC Radio.

JERUSALEM – During the Senate hearing on Benghazi yesterday, outgoing Secretary of State Hillary Clinton claimed she did not know whether the U.S. special mission attacked on Sept. 11 was involved in gun-running.
The remarks were perhaps the most important and telling of the entire hearing since they address a possible motive behind the jihadist attacks.
Yet Clinton’s answers were largely unreported by U.S. news media.
The exchange on the subject took place with Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky.
Paul asked Clinton: “Is the U. S. involved with any procuring of weapons, transfer of weapons, buying, selling, anyhow transferring weapons to Turkey out of Libya?
“To Turkey?” Clinton asked. “I will have to take that question for the record. Nobody has ever raised that with me.”
Continued Paul: “It’s been in news reports that ships have been leaving from Libya and that may have weapons, and what I’d like to know is the annex that was close by, were they involved with procuring, buying, selling, obtaining weapons, and were any of these weapons being transferred to other countries, any countries, Turkey included?”
Clinton replied, “Well, senator, you’ll have to direct that question to the agency that ran the annex. I will see what information is available.”
“You’re saying you don’t know?” asked Paul.
“I do not know,” Clinton said. “I don’t have any information on that.”
That section of the exchange with Paul was almost entirely ignored by media, which instead focused on the Republican senator’s earlier statement that if he were president he would have relieved Clinton of her post.
WND has filed numerous reports quoting Middle East security officials who describe the mission in Benghazi as a meeting place to coordinate aid for the rebel-led insurgencies in the Middle East.
In September, WND also broke the story that the slain U.S. ambassador, Christopher Stevens, played a central role in recruiting jihadists to fight Bashar al-Assad’s regime in Syria, according to Egyptian security officials.
In November, Middle Eastern security sources further described both the U.S. mission and nearby CIA annex in Benghazi as the main intelligence and planning center for U.S. aid to the rebels that was being coordinated with Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
Many rebel fighters are openly members of terrorist organizations, including al-Qaida.
Among the tasks performed inside the building was collaborating with countries, most notably Turkey, on the recruitment of fighters – including jihadists – to target Assad’s regime, the security officials said.
According to the 39-page report released last month by independent investigators probing the attacks at the diplomatic facility, the U.S. mission in Benghazi was set up without the knowledge of the new Libyan government, as WND reported.
“Another key driver behind the weak security platform in Benghazi was the decision to treat Benghazi as a temporary, residential facility, not officially notified to the host government, even though it was also a full-time office facility,” the report states. “This resulted in the Special Mission compound being excepted from office facility standards and accountability under the Secure Embassy Construction and Counterterrorism Act of 1999 (SECCA) and the Overseas Security Policy Board (OSPB).”
The report, based on a probe led by former U.S. diplomat Thomas Pickering, calls the facility a “Special U.S. Mission.”
During the Libyan revolution against Moammar Gadhafi’s regime, the U.S. admitted to directly arming the rebel groups.
At the time, rebel leader Abdel-Hakim al-Hasidi acknowledged in an interview that a significant number of the Libyan rebels were al-Qaida fighters, many of whom had fought U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
He insisted his fighters “are patriots and good Muslims, not terrorists,” but he added that the “members of al-Qaida are also good Muslims and are fighting against the invader.”
Media cover up?
From the beginning, U.S. media reports on the events in Benghazi have been misleading.
The vast majority of media coverage worldwide refers to the U.S. facility that was attacked as a “consulate,” even though the government itself has been careful to call it a “mission.”
A consulate typically refers to the building that houses a consul, who is the official representative of the government of one state in the territory of another. The U.S. consul in Libya, Jenny Cordell, works out of the embassy in Tripoli.
Consulates at times function as junior embassies, providing services related to visas, passports and citizen information.
On Aug. 26, about two weeks before his was killed, Ambassador Stevens attended a ceremony marking the opening of consular services at the Tripoli embassy.
The main role of a consulate is to foster trade with the host and care for its own citizens who are traveling or living in the host nation.
Diplomatic missions, on the other hand, maintain a more generalized role. A diplomatic mission is simply a group of people from one state or an international inter-governmental organization present in another state to represent matters of the sending state or organization in the receiving state.
However, according to the State Department investigation, the building was a “U.S. Special Mission” set up without the knowledge of the Libyan government.
Withholding, misleading
Two days before the November presidential election, CBS posted additional portions of a Sept. 12 “60 Minutes” interview in which Obama made statements that contradicted his earlier claims about the attack.
In the released portions of the interview, Obama would not say whether he thought the attack was terrorism. Yet he would later emphasize at a presidential debate that in the Rose Garden on the day of the attack, he had declared it an act of terror.
Reuters was also implicated by WND for possibly false reporting.
In the immediate aftermath of the attack, Reuters quoted a purported civilian protester by his first name who described a supposedly popular demonstration against an anti-Muhammad film outside the U.S. building.
Immediately following the attack, President Obama and other White House officials claimed anti-American sentiment fueled by the obscure anti-Muhammad video on YouTube sparked civilian protests outside the U.S. mission that devolved into a jihadist onslaught.
However, vivid accounts provided by the State Department and intelligence officials later made clear no such popular demonstration took place. Instead, video footage from Benghazi reportedly shows an organized group of armed men attacking the compound, officials said.

Well all of this has been most interesting. It is passed history and a very sad history indeed. Wickedness of man is written in the Judgment books of heaven and there will be a day God will call them into account for their evil and they will receive their just punishment. I am 100% sure of this. There is a man running for president who has been speaking about the constitution of this
nation. Who is trying to wake people up to the fact they need to be involved in bringing this country back to” We The People.”
His name is Ben Carson. There is a one world government in progress, but it is not what one thinks it is. It will be a religious in
nature and it will and has begun. We saw it when he came and spoke to the congress of the United States. Look up the history
of this power. It had 1260 years of ruling, until the leader of that system was put in jail in 1978 by a French General named Berthier. That ruler died in jail. The Bible refers to that system as receiving a deadly wound. It also says the wound would be healed and it was when Benito Mussolini signed a paper which restored temporal power to that system. That system has grown
in power and all the world is looking to that system to solve the worlds problems. It is the most richest system on this earth. We have a nation that does not remember how this country came to be. Our children are not learning what they need to know about this country we live in. Our foundation of this country is crumbling before us,just like the Rome empire fell. Get the book.
The Great Controversy read it starting with chapter 35 Liberty of Conscience Threatened. One needs to read the whole book, Starting with that chapter your eyes should be opened to see what is written there is coming true today. Wake up!; people and see, read and hear the treading of the end of a nation that was founded on Liberty of Conscious and separation of powers.
Some will say this nation will never give up Liberty of Conscious. Well the changes that have taken place would you believe
they would be like this 20 years ago. History repeats it self. The Bible say it does. God is still in control of all things. We may not fully understand His ways and it is because we choose not to know Him. Prophecies of nations rising and falling were
predicted in the bible and came to pass just as it was written hundred of years ago before they appeared on the scene of
of history. Babylon the first great world empire, which is Iraq today, Medes and Perish which is Iran today, then Greece, then
Rome and out of Rome rose a religious power. It divided into ten kingdoms. Three of those kingdoms were completely
destroyed never to be heard from again. They were destroyed by that system using the civil power to get rid of those people.
Who were the Heruli,Ostrogoths, and Vandals. Look up the history you will see this is 100% true. Jesus will come and He will take all those who love and obey Him to His glorious kingdom.
This earth will be destroyed by God not man. He will remake it more beautiful than when He first created it. The wicked will be destroyed who rejected His love and salvation for them. There will be no more death, nor sickness of any kind and there will be perfect peace. What a glorious day that will be. I chose to follow Jesus each day I wake up. I pray that those who are on this page will read what I have written and search for yourselves to see that what I have said,here is the truth and find true peace
and happiness that only He can give.
sincerely in Christ Jesus, Janette
b It killed millions of innocent people just because they
would not accept that systems beliefs. It’s power was removed by a French general. It was all prophesied in the Bible. That system received it power back by

Hillary could be caught red handed with a gun shooting up a grade school and nothing would come of it. The Clinton’s are teflon.

Reply to Linda says….You need to get all this info on expose of the Bilderberg group needs to go viral…so everyone can realize what we are up against…Almighty God did not allow these people to gain riches so that they could look down their greedy noses and control those on a lower financial plane than they are! He gave men riches so they could help benefit all people! These people are seeking earthly riches, but they are certainly not storing up their treasures in Heaven! Riches that come easily can go quickly for the ungodly! Also, you need to get your info on Hillary out to the public so all these Hillary worshipers can see what she is really made of!! She is NOT above the law and needs to be deposed from her throne! A prison cell would be very fitting and she needs to be heavily fined so she can have to part with much of her ill-gotten riches. To Jannet Lewis…I say hats off to you for telling exactly the TRUTH! God is indeed STILL ON HIS THRONE…..and He will protect those who worship and follow His rules! TO GOD BE THE GLORY…GREAT THINGS HE HAS DONE!!….AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO!!
