First, what was the makeup of the ‘hit teams,’ or who were the attackers? We have verified that the attackers were a combination of members of Ansar al Sharia and Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), but they were operating under the flag of Ansar al Sharia. Who is Ansar al Sharia? Iranian terrorists. They are a terrorist group that receives their training by and funding from Iran. Now think about this. Carefully consider the implications here. IRAN. It’s the elephant in the room no one wants to mention or talk about.
Also consider this. One of the men stationed at the compound, a British national, left the compound at about 9:20 p.m., reportedly to get more phone cards. That’s right, phone cards, like you would buy at Walmart. Why? Because the men at the compound ran out of minutes. Just who do you think they were talking to that day to burn through the minutes, and why do you think they needed them at that exact time?

What could be more secure than an anonymous person paying cash for a cheap prepaid No contract cell phone, then paying cash for minutes. How would anyone know its a spy when the phone is connected to no one but some anonymous person. He could pay a straw buyer to get him the phone if he thinks hes being watched. Then I am sure they talk in a simple code known only between the people on each end of the phone. I doubt Ansar Al Sharia have the equipment to track cell signals.edit on 29-11-2012 by geldib because: (no reason given)
