CIA moved missiles out of Libya to “rebels” in Syria

Dozens of CIA agents were in Benghazi during the attack last September 11, according to new information from CNN, and the spy organization may be attempting to cover up details of their operations.

Sources told CNN that 35 Americans were in Benghazi that night — 21 of whom were working out of the annex — and that several were wounded, some seriously.

One source said: “You have no idea the amount of pressure being brought to bear on anyone with knowledge of this operation.”

Among the questions are whether CIA missteps contributed to the security failure in Benghazi and, more importantly, whether the Agency’s Benghazi operation had anything to do with reported heavy weapons shipments from the local port to “rebels” in  Syria .

Up to 35 CIA operatives were working in the city during the attack last September on the US consulate that resulted in the death of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans, according to CNN.

Some in Washington also speculate that US agents in Benghazi were secretly helping deliver weapons from Libya to “rebels” in Syria, transporting them through Turkey. The State Department e-mailed CNN, stating that it was only helping destroy old, damaged weapons, not transferring them anywhere else.

The CIA’s director at the time General David Petraeus was in favor of supplying “rebels” in Syria with weapons, along with then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Defense Minister Leon Panetta.

President Barack Obama however was against arming opposition forces for fear the arms would fall into the hands of extremists such as al-Qaeda terrorists.

The State Department told CNN it was only helping the new Libyan government destroy weapons deemed “damaged, aged or too unsafe retain,” and that it was not involved in any transfer of weapons to other countries.
