Did you ever watch an event as it unfolded and have nagging questions afterward? Questions like, could some right wing Conservatives have plotted a film that would cause unrest in the Muslim dominated Middle East to undermine President Obama's re-election less than two months before the election?
Why is it that all the Republican investigations focuse on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton instead of investigating further the source and reason for the film that exploded into conflict? Did we all forget about it?

The Associated Press was first to report that it had reached the filmmaker who said he was an Israeli-American real estate developer from California who had made the movie by raising $5 million from wealthy Jewish donors. It gradually emerged that the man, who went by "Sam Bacile," was using an alias. The film, tied to U.S.-based Christians with extreme anti-Islam views, was produced on a low budget in southern California using actors who were apparently unaware of the film’s ultimate purpose.
Do we know any "wealthy Jewish donors" who might want to see Obama's re-election foiled? Isn't Sheldon Adelson a wealthy Jewish donor to the Conservative cause?
Since the Republican's want to bring up Benghazi again after all the prior investigations found nothing then why don't they go further and investigate the source and purpose of this movie and it's relationship to unrest in the Middle East that set the stage.

A Hunt for “A RED OCTOBER” Surprise
The Republican ploy to change the color of the map
Unlike the movie “Hunt for Red October” where character Jack Ryan seeks a Soviet defector who mans a stealth nuclear submarine, this story is about a stealth attack by the right wing that attempts to turn BLUE states into RED ones in the upcoming election.
Conservative “special opps”, using the Fox News propaganda engine to deploy misinformation, rather than present facts, use open ended opinion and second hand information about Benghazi to mislead. Rumor and speculation are reported as if they were fact. Hersey is repeated over and over.
The Fox approach, “double down on hate and conspiracy theories that have always worked for conservatives in the past.”
Benghazi is a good example of the Republican Party leading from behind cover and after the fact and using the news to disguise their rhetoric. By using speculation and innuendo they place themselves in the role of Leader, Commander In Chief, and Judge.
Here is an example of how speculation and innuendo can work.
The unrest in Cairo on September 11th, 2012 was attributed to an Anti-Islamic film made by Nakoula Basseley Nakoula.
The initial story however was as follows.
The Associated Press was first to report that it had reached the filmmaker who said he was an Israeli-American real estate developer from California who had made the movie by raising $5 million from wealthy Jewish donors. It gradually emerged that the man, who went by "Sam Bacile," was using an alias. The film, tied to U.S.-based Christians with extreme anti-Islam views, was produced on a low budget in southern California using actors who were apparently unaware of the film’s ultimate purpose.
Prior to Nakoula being brought in for questioning and later charged for violation of his parole Nakoula was visited by a team of attorney’s. The funds providing these lawyers are unknown. The attorneys most likely influenced Makoula’s statements and possibly protected others from being exposed. Funding of the film and its translation came from a right wing Christian organization.
We will never know if there as any Jewish or political connection as further information was not forthcoming. It is clear that the effect was to cause unrest in the Middle East at a time most sensitive to Americans and possibly the election.
The following is from the transcript of the Mitt Romney Secret (47%) video.
-----------------------
-----------------------
Audience member: If you get the call as president, and you had hostages…Ronald Reagan was able to make a statement, even before he became, was actually sworn in
Romney: Yeah—
Audience member: the hostages were released—
Romney: on the day of his inauguration, yeah.
Audience member: So my question is, really, how can you sort of duplicate that scenario?
Romney: Ohhhh. [A few chuckles in audience.] I'm gonna ask you, how do I duplicate that scenario.
Audience member: I think that had to do with the fact that the Iranians perceived Reagan would do something to really get them out. In other words [unintelligible]…and that's why I'm suggesting that something that you say over the next few months gets the Iranians to understand that their pursuit of the bomb is something that you would predict and I think that's something that could possibly resonate very well with American Republican voters.

The history of Ronald Reagan’s Presidency was clouded by the Iran-Contra affair with arms and drugs being bartered possibly for hostages and the beneficial timing of this exchange in relation to Ronald Reagan’s election.
It is no secret that Mitt Romney has been seeking support from the right wing radical conservatives. One of Mitt Romney’s largest supporters is Sheldon Adelson, a Jewish casino billionaire who owns a media empire in Israel.
So who could have been behind the funding of this anti-Islamic film? Who would have benefited from unrest in the Muslim world? How would this unrest draw attention to our relationship with Israel and elevate the discord about Iran?
See how easy it is to put speculation and opinion together and create innuendo.
