31. One prevailing right-wing conspiracy theory...

Nov 2012

is that the "Obama regime" was arranging for the kidnap of Stevens as an October surprise to make the release of Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman more palatable, but then something went wrong. This is based on someone's leak. Just do a Google search on "Benghazi Stevens kidnap".

A more believable leak states that Stevens was monitoring the flow of arms from Libya to Al Qaeda linked parties in Syria. The right-wing is inventing a story to make Obama out as the bad guy, when it is really the neocons who are deep into the nefarious dealings. Feinstein obviously wants to get to the bottom of it, but I'll be surprised if the truth is ever made public. People are more interested in sexual misconduct anyway.
