It's hard to believe that the outspoken Trump didn't hammer Jeb on his stupid statement that his brother "kept us safe"!
1. His brother ignored pre-9/11 warnings.
2. Then came 9/11.
3. Then his brother invaded Iraq which had nothing to do with 9/11.
4. His brother destabilized the entire Middle East which created ISIS.
5. His brother cost America around $3 trillion so far.
Jeb Bush: My Brother 'Kept Us Safe'
Planning for 9/11/01 on Clinton's Presidency.
As 9/11 commission pointed out, even if they had focused on / perceived the threat of hijacking, the standard procedure at the time for airlines was to do whatever the hijacker wanted because NO ONE ever considered anyone would use a 747 as a weapon - NO ONE!
Bush destabilized the Middle East?
- He should never gone into Iraq. Once he did, as he left office he handed Obama an Iraq that had been liberated, Iraqis that had been and were still being trained, and a situation that just had to be 'managed', and a plan to bring our troops home that all Obama had to do was to follow (yet he took credit for it). Obama even declared the war was over, he was bringing troops home, the war on terrorism was over, and Al Qaeida was on the run.
Of course that was before he took the nation to war on his own to help Al Qaeida (Yeah, 9/11/01 Al Qaeida and the group that had been hiring jihadists for decades to go from Libya to Afghanistan and Iraq to kill Americans) take over Libya...
Of course that was before he began running guns to Syrian 'rebels' who became ISIS, who he called a 'JV Team', and allowed them to flood into Iraq un-opposed and take over much of the nation that had already been liberated at great sacrifice by our military. He too ignored the warning signs called them a JV Team, and watched the whole thing blow up in his face and go up in flames.
Ignored the warning signs?
- The Obama administration knew there was a Middle East-wide call for attacks on US Embassies for 9/11/12, the anniversary of 9/11/01
- The Leader of Libya declared HE had warned the Obama administration of a call to kill Ambassador Stevens on that day in retaliation for a Benghazi-born Al Qaeida leader having been killed months earlier in a drone strike
- Stevens compound had been attacked TWICE in the weeks leading up to 9/11/12, the last attack left a 4-foot hole in the wall...Stevens warned if there was a 3rd coordinated attack and he did not have more security he would DIE (HIS LETTER)
- Obama / Hillary hired an Al Qaeida-associated militia to 'protect' Stevens. After the 1st two attacks on the compound they resigned/quit. No ADDITIONAL security was provided...
IN FACT, after 2 previous attacks on the compound and the loss of the extremely helpful support from the Al Qaeida-associated militia they had hired, AND knowing all about the warnings the Obama administration REDUCED the number of US Security detail members. They later blamed the Republicans for a lack of money to hire more...... 1) What about the money they had been paying the Al Qaeida-associated militia with... 2) You couldn't add a couple thousand dollars to the $6+ trillion Obama had already added so you could adequately protect Americans...& 3) if you could not afford more security and knew about the warning, WHY NOT JUST FLY HIM OUT AND GET HIM OUT OF HARM'S WAY?!
Instead, despite all the warnings, On 9/11/12, 20 US Embassies were attacked, 4 overrun, and 4 Americans to include the 1st US Ambassador in over 30 years were murdered!
Disregarding Warning Signs? Putin and Russia warned Obama about the Boston Marathon Bombers WELL in advance to be able to do something. Instead, Obama did NOTHING and ALLOWED the bombings to be carried out. Afterwards he plastered their pictures all over the TV and asked people to help identify them...EVEN THOUGH THEY ALREADY KNEW WHO THEY WERE (and were trying to cover up the fact that they LET this terrorist attack happen)!
