Maybe it is Just a Coincidence

Consider this:  in the last two days reports have leaked out that the decision to order to American forces to stand down rather than to assist the people under attack by terrorists in Benghazi last September was delivered by Valerie Jarrett to the Secretary of Defense Panetta.  Jarrett was speaking for president Obama.  Then, within 36 hours of this bombshell leaking, we learn that the USA has now filed with the court in New York sealed indictments against a number of the terrorists allegedly involved in that attack. 

Maybe I am too cynical, but I think that the two events are connected.  A story revealing that Obama himself ordered our forces not to help the Americans under attack in Benghazi is a public relations disaster for the administration.  Americans will forgive nearly anything.  They will not, however, forgive a president who turns his back on our countrymen who are under attack.  Now, if there is suddenly an indictment (which we conveniently cannot see), it looks like Obama is actually doing something about the Benghazi mess.  But here's the question:  Why is it that it took 11 months before these indictments were filed?  Nothing new has happened in the last ten months.  News reporters have interviewed the suspects in Libya but somehow the FBI has been unable to locate them.  Let's see if these thugs are actually arrested or if this is just another distraction to cover up the reality of the way Obama mishandled this whole matter.
