Was Hillary Clinton, While Secretary of State, Running a Secret Spy Network?

A trove of emails released two years ago show that then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had access to intelligence from a private spy network run by an old confidant.

In 2012, the email account of Sidney Blumenthal, a long-time associate of Bill and Hillary Clinton, was accessed by Romanian hacker Marcel-Lehel Lazar, who went by the name Guccifer. 

Blumenthal’s emails, which were posted on the internet, showed he’d had correspondence with Hillary Clinton via her private email account. They revealed that Blumenthal was providing back-channel intelligence to Clinton about Libya’s civil war in the run-up to the Benghazi disaster, according to a report from ProPublica and Gawker.

One of the emails pointed out the deteriorating security situation right before the Benghazi consulate was stormed, citing “an extremely sensitive source” who pointed out the numerous bombings and kidnapping of aid workers and diplomats by those thought to be loyal to the late Libyan Prime Minister Muammar Gaddafi, ProPublica reported. Despite the information gathered by Clinton’s network, she said after the Benghazi attacks of September 2012 that U.S. intelligence officials had had no advance warning of the threat.

The reports Blumenthal sent to Clinton appear to have been compiled by Tyler Drumheller, a former chief of the Central Intelligence Agency’s (CIA) clandestine service in Europe. Drumheller left the CIA in 2005 and started his own security business.

In addition to Libya, the memos deal with subjects ranging from German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s discussions with her finance minister to the make-up of the South Korean cabinet.

But much of the attention was focused on Libya. There’s even one email exchange suggesting that four people be sent to neighboring Tunisia to aid the Libyan opposition. “Sid, you are doing great work on this,” Drumheller wrote to Blumenthal. “It is going to be around $60,000, coverting r/t business class airfare to Tunis, travel in country to the border and back, and other expenses for 7–10 days for 4 guys,” one email read.

A Clinton spokesman said all the Blumenthal emails in Clinton’s private email account have been turned over as part of the 30,000 pages of communications relayed to the State Department.

When Clinton was named secretary of state, she wanted Blumenthal to come work for her. But then White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel is said to have vetoed that plan because of Blumenthal’s attacks on Obama during the 2008 presidential primary campaign.

Hillary Clinton's ‘Hacked’ Benghazi Emails (RT)

While Clinton Hid Emails, $6 Billion Went Missing in Her State Dept.

Posted on March 6, 2015 by Aaron Dykes

(Truthstream Media)

Editor’s Note: Do you think she’ll finally change that Twitter avatar?

The political world is swarming over revelations that Hillary Clinton hid her emails during her time as Secretary of State.

She apparently went so far in shielding her official correspondence from public scrutiny that her team set up the private domain @clintonemail.com, used cover names for family members and reportedly ran a server for the mail client out of her home. Hillary publicly tweeted to dispel concerns about secrecy, dubiously claiming ‘I want the public to see my email.’

But serious concerns have been raised about her trail of secrecy, and the potential for classified information to have been exposed to foreign entities, spies, hackers and the like:

“The former Secretary’s tweet does not answer questions about why this was not done when she left office, the integrity of the emails while she controlled them, the scheme to conceal them, or the failure to provide them in logical course,” said committee spokesman Jamal Ware. (source)

Perhaps the most serious accusation facing Clinton is that she may have breached one of the fundamental tenets of classified information. J William Leonard, former director of the body that keeps watch over executive branch secrets, the Information Security Oversight Office, told the Guardian that if Clinton had dealt with confidential government matters through her personal email, that would have been problematic. “There is no such thing as personal copies of classified information. All classified information belongs to the US government and it should never leave the control of the government.” (source)

After all, it was the infamous hacker ‘Guccifer’ who revealed the @clintonemail.com scheme, not GOP enemies or ‘accountable’ officials in government.

Otherwise, would the world have ever known?

But Wait, There’s More… Much More Being Covered Up

But the emails – if they are ever disclosed to the public – are not the half of it.

They are the proverbial tip of the iceberg of secrecy.

Recall that not even a year ago, it was quietly disclosed that the Hillary Clinton State Dept. “misplaced” more than $6 billion dollars that remain unaccounted for. The Washington Times reported about the losses under Sec. Clinton:

The State Department misplaced and lost some $6 billion due to the improper filing of contracts during the past six years, mainly during the tenure of former Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, according to a newly released Inspector General report.

The $6 billion in unaccounted funds poses a “significant financial risk and demonstrates a lack of internal control over the Department’s contract actions,” according to the report.

Truthstream Media.com reported:

The obvious implication here is to cover up corruption and sweetheart deals, such as contracts to spouses and friends, with missing documents in numerous government contracts for the war in Iraq and much more:

The situation “creates conditions conducive to fraud, as corrupt individuals may attempt to conceal evidence of illicit behavior by omitting key documents from the contract file,” the report concluded.

It would seem very little was account for – by definition – since the Clinton State Dept. had a vacancy for the critical Inspector General position, responsible for oversight and department spending, during the ENTIRE 5 year tenure of Hillary Clinton there.

It was the longest vacancy in the entire history of the department. In February 2012, a year before Clinton left office in February 2013, the Project on Government Oversight (POGO) reported:

The longest vacancy has been at the State Department, which has gone 1,484 days—over four years—without a permanent IG, at a time when the Department has taken on the responsibility and challenge of managing scandal-prone private security contractors in war zones. As of today, there are seven IG positions that have been vacant for more than a year.

So much for the already absurd ‘most transparent administration ever’ claim of the Obama Administration.

That means no one even pretended to keep Sec. Clinton and her department accountable during her reign.

After Hillary stepped down, embroiled in “what difference does make” Benghazi bullsh*t, and John Kerry took over, one Steve A. Linick was appointed as Inspector General of the State Dept. As IG, Linick discovered $6 billion in unaccounted funds “due to improper filing of contracts during the past six years.”

What else will be found – with an as-yet untold covert role by the State Dept. in the meddling of Libya, Egypt, Syria and other players in the Arab Spring uprising, the covert financing of jihadi rebels as well as ISIS, and in the mounting tensions with Russia, China and other key players around the world?

How much more has been kept secret – beyond just emails – that the public will never know about?

But alas, I guess secrecy and the Clintons have long gone together like peas and carrots, peanut butter and jelly or power and abuse.

4. Charleston Voice: Libyan Convoy with gold, cash crossed to Niger

Posted by Andrew B. on May 18, 2011

Wars are never actually fought for the reasons sold to the masses:


Some believe it is about protecting civilians, others say it is about oil, but some are convinced intervention in Libya is all about Gaddafi’s plan to introduce the gold dinar, a single African currency made from gold, a true sharing of the wealth.

Gaddafi did not give up. In the months leading up to the military intervention, he called on African and Muslim nations to join together to create this new currency that would rival the dollar and euro. They would sell oil and other resources around the world only for gold dinars.

It is an idea that would shift the economic balance of the world. …
And it has happened before.

In 2000, Saddam Hussein announced Iraqi oil would be traded in euros, not dollars. Some say sanctions and an invasion followed because the Americans were desperate to prevent OPEC from transferring oil trading in all its member countries to the euro.

A gold dinar would have had serious consequences for the world financial system, but may also have empowered the people of Africa, something black activists say the US wants to avoid at all costs.

Embroiled in wars of aggression throughout the Middle East, it’s hard to imagine that anyone would accept the standard rhetoric about protecting human rights and promoting democracy as motivation for our latest war in Libya.  But judging by the absence of protest in the United States, and the sheer lack of meaningful coverage in the MSM, it would appear that most Americans have bought the fictional narrative.

The prospect of Gaddafi attempting to create an alternative, gold-backed currency would certainly have frightened Western powers, as the current system of profiteering is heavily based on the worthless dollar – a fiat currency.  It seems entirely plausible that the true motivation for the invasion of Libya may well have been this fear of an independent African currency.

We cannot say with any degree of certainty that this was, in fact, the main motivation for the invasion.  What we can say without question, however, is that the official line of promoting human rights and democracy is an absolute farce.  War is a business venture, and it is not undertaken without specific lucrative goals in mind.  Libya’s vast oil reserves undoubtedly played a role in the U.S. decision to invade, but oil in itself is unlikely to offer a strong enough incentive.  If that were the case, after all, why haven’t we attacked Venezuela?

In order for a military intervention to take place, there must be a veritable witches’ brew of temptations, which make the potential fruits of aggression so great that the corporate warlords simply cannot resist.  In Afghanistan we had the Trans-Afghanistan natural gas pipeline, the trillion-dollar mineral reserves, and the option of having a permanent U.S. presence is such a strategic geopolitical location.  In Iraq we had the world’s second largest proven oil reserves and the opportunity to cement U.S. hegemony in the Middle East with the construction of military bases on the scale of small cities.  And in Libya, of course, we have oil reserves, a strategic location and now, it seems, the grave necessity to crush a move towards African independence and the undermining of the dollar as a global benchmark currency.

Don’t buy the lies, folks.  U.S. military intervention is always about material and political gain, and never about ideals.

'I think Gowdy has been warned away or threatened'

Published 01.18.2015

Jerome R. Corsi

U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., chairs the House Select Committee on Benghazi

The independent Citizens’ Commission on Benghazi, or CCB, has been doing its own investigation and working behind the scenes for the past year and a half to make sure Congress does the job the executive branch has failed to do: Namely, to get to the truth of what happened and to hold people accountable.

A major step forward took place last May when Speaker of the House John Boehner, R-Ohio, announced the creation of a Select Committee to investigate, after about 190 House Republicans, under the leadership of then-Rep. Frank Wolf, R-Va., had co-sponsored legislation for just such action.

The CCB’s members include former military commanders and Special Forces operatives; former CIA and intelligence officers; as well as well-known experts in international terrorism; and experts in media and government affairs (a complete list of members is below).

In exclusive interviews conducted with 11 of the 17 members of the Commission, it is clear that while the CCB is still enthusiastic to work with Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., chairman of the House Select Committee on Benghazi, and hopeful that Boehner is serious about the investigation, various members of the CCB, speaking on their own behalf and not as spokesmen for the Commission, are expressing concerns, wanting to make sure the Gowdy investigation is not compromised by elements within the GOP.

It was a lack of trust in the congressional investigation of Benghazi that prompted the formation of the Citizens’ Commission on Benghazi in 2013. The founding members of the CCB were U.S Army Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely, U.S. Navy four-star Admiral James Lyons, U.S. Air Force General Tom McInerney (all retired) and Accuracy in Media Editor Roger Aronoff.

Gen. Vallely told WND that he believes Gowdy “has received much pressure not to get to the truth, and we are now coming to the conclusion that there is no longer any intention in Washington, by the leadership of both the Democratic and Republican Parties, to get to the truth.”

“An honest investigation into Benghazi would prove treasonous acts at the very top of the White House and the State Department, and a continuing cover-up in Congress that now involves the Republican leadership and especially House Speaker John Boehner,” Vallely said.

Among the CCB’s most significant findings, released last April in an Interim Report, was that “the U.S. facilitated the delivery of weapons and military support to Al Qaeda-linked rebels in Libya,” and that “on the day of the attacks in Benghazi, whether or not there was an official order to stand down, the result was the same. There were military assets, for example, at the U.S. base in Sigonella, in Sicily, Italy, that could have been brought to bear, and perhaps could have saved the lives of the two men killed at the CIA Annex, the scene of the second attack that night. The failure to attempt to rescue these Americans amounts to a dereliction of duty.”

The commission has found evidence that there was a stand-down order given to the Annex Security Guards at the CIA Annex after the attack began at the Special Mission Compound, one mile away, where Ambassador Chris Stevens and information officer Sean Smith were killed.

The purpose of the mission in Benghazi appears to have involved a scheme managed by U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stephens, first to supply weapons to al-Qaida-related groups and others who sought to overthrow Moammar Gadhafi, and later to Syrian rebels.

Republican leaders are covering up the White House’s offenses, some commission members believe, because the White House made them aware of the gun-running and they gave assent to it.

Jeff Shockey, a lobbyist for defense contractors and Academi. He will soon lead the day to day operations of the House Intelligence Committee.

Posted at 3:32 pm by Lee Fang

After lobbyist-run SuperPACs and big money efforts dominated the last election, legislators are now appointing lobbyists to literally manage the day-to-day affairs of Congress. For the House Intelligence Committee, which oversees government intelligence operations and agencies, the changing of the guard means a lobbyist for Academi, the defense contractor formerly known as Blackwater, is now in charge.

Congressman Devin Nunes (R-CA), the incoming chairman of the Intelligence Committee when the House reconvenes in January, announced that Jeff Shockey will be the new Staff Director of the committee. As a paid representative of Academi, Shockey and his firm have earned $80,000 this year peddling influence on behalf of Academi.

In previous years, the House Intelligence Committee has investigated Blackwater over secret contracts with the Central Intelligence Agency. Now, the shoe is on the other foot. As Staff Director, the highest position on a committee for a staff member, Shockey will oversee the agencies that do business with his former employer.

Shockey also represents a number of other companies with business before defense agencies: General Dynamics, Koch Industries, Northrop Grumman, United Launch Alliance, 

Innovative Defense Technologies and Boeing.

The role reversal, for lobbyists to take brief stints in Congress after an election, has become a normalized. In a previous investigation for The Nation, we found that some corporate firms offer employment contracts with special bonuses for their staff to return to government jobs, ensuring the paycut the receive for passing through the revolving door to become public servants doesn’t have to alter their K Street lifestyle.

Other committees are also hiring lobbyists. Congressman Jason Chaffetz (R-UT), Darrell Issa’s (R-CA) replacement as chair of the Oversight Committee, just hired Podesta Group lobbyist Sean McLaughlin as his new Staff Director. 

McLaughlin’s client list includes the Business Roundtable, a trade association for corporate CEOs of large firms. Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) also hired a new chief of staff, Mark Isakowitz, who represents BP.

Rep.Trey Gowdy (R-SC) says "politics should not play a role" when appointing a Soros affiliate in the Benghazi investigative probe

GOP'S BENGHAZI-PROBE CHIEF LOBBIED FOR FAR-LEFT GROUPS. Staff director of select committee worked with ACLU, Soros activists

Posted on June 6, 2014 at 6:03 PM EST 

Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., chairs the House Select Committee on Benghazi

By Aaron Klein

Philip Kiko

A Capitol Hill veteran who was recently appointed as majority staff director for the House Select Committee on Benghazi, Philip Kiko, has lobbied on behalf of far-left groups heavily tied to and financed by George Soros.

A significant portion of the lobby activities focused on opposing Voter ID laws, which would have required voters to bring photo identification to the voting booths.

Kiko would not be the first Soros-tied investigator in a government probe of the Benghazi attack.

The State Department’s lead Benghazi investigator, Thomas Pickering, co-authored the Accountability Review Board, or ARB report, which critics say absolved Hillary Clinton of wrongdoing in the attacks.

KleinOnline was first to report Pickering is tied to Soros and to the revolutions in the Middle East and North Africa through his role as a member of the small board of the International Crisis Group, or ICG.

Kiko was appointed by House Benghazi committee chairman Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., who has stated that politics should not play a role in the investigation.

Gowdy insists the probe will be fact-based and believes his choice of Kiko, who has “a proven record of effective leadership and management,” is in line with that aim.

“I am pleased to have him on our team as we conduct a serious, fact-driven investigation to ensure our fellow Americans know the full truth about what happened in Benghazi,” Gowdy said.

House Speaker John A. Boehner, R-Ohio, praised Gowdy’s selection of Kiko.

“Phil Kiko is a man of unquestioned integrity with a record of distinguished service to the House and the American people,” he said. 

“His appointment today is further proof of Chairman Gowdy’s commitment to an investigation that is serious, fact-based and professional.”

“The American people deserve the full truth about what happened in Benghazi on September 11, 2012, and there is no better person to help lead this effort than Phil,” Boehner said.

Amanda Duvall, a spokeswoman for Gowdy noted that Kiko worked for the Executive Branch under Presidents Reagan and George H. Bush. He was in the House for many years, including as Republican staff director and chief counsel for the House Judiciary Committee under former Chairman Jim Sensenbrenner, she said.

During Sensenbrenner’s tenure at Judiciary, 116 bills were passed, including a ban on partial birth abortion and the Visa and Border Security Act.

Duvall said Kiko “earned the respect of those he worked with on both sides of the aisle.”

“He has a solid track record and we have confidence in his ability to serve as staff director,” she said.

Blogosphere abuzz

The conservative blogosphere, nevertheless, has been abuzz about Kiko’s work as a registered lobbyist for two leftist groups, the American Civil Liberties Union, or ACLU, and the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, or LCCHR.

The LCCHR is a clearinghouse of 200 mostly leftist organizations, including Soros’ own Open Society Policy Center and scores of Soros-financed groups.

Between 2005 and 2009, LCCHR itself received $3,755,900 in grants from Soros.

The LCCHR’s Education Fund board of directors includes White House counselor John Podesta, who founded the Soros-financed Center for American Progress, which is described as the “idea factory” of the progressive left.

Lobbyist registration documentation shows that in June 2013, Kiko registered as the ACLU’s lobbyist via his position with the Smith-Free Group lobby firm.

As of October 2011, the ACLU ranked fourth among Soros-funded grantees, according to the Sorosfiles.com watchdog website.

A litany of member groups of Kiko’s other client, LCCHR, have received funding from Soros’ Open Society Foundation, including the ACLU, American Federation of Teachers, American Friends Service Committee, Amnesty International, Brennan Center for Social Justice, Center for Community Change, Common Cause and DEMOS, which employs Van Jones, President Obama’s controversial former “green” jobs czar.

Other Soros-funded LCCHR member groups include the Feminist Majority, Human Rights Campaign, LatinoJustice PRLDEF, Lawyers’ Committee for Legal Rights Under the Law, MALDEF, National Council of La Raza, National Immigration Forum, National Immigration Law Center, National Lawyers Guild, National Organization for Women, National Partnership for Women and Families, National Women’s Law Center, People for the American Way, Planned Parenthood, Project Vote, Sierra Club and the Southern Poverty Law Center.

A sampling of LCCHR members reads like a who’s who of the radical left, including Americans for Democratic Action, a counterpart to the Democratic Socialists of America; the Soros-funded United States Student Association; and the Soros-financed Lambda Legal Fund.

LCCHR member Center for Social Inclusion was founded in 2002 by Maya Wiley, daughter of ACORN founder George Wiley. The group was founded with $75,000 in seed money from Soros’s Open Society. 

Wiley later became chairman of board of the Soros-financed Tides Network.

Voter ID

Working as a lobbyist, Kiko has been deeply involved in activism on so-called voting-rights issues. Numerous lobbying reports show Kiko held Capitol Hill meetings on behalf of the ACLU last year on discussions pushing renewed Voting Rights Act legislation.

Led by Attorney General Eric Holder, the legislation was a drive to require certain states and local governments to obtain federal preclearance before implementing any changes to their voting laws or practices. Holder was taking particular aim at the proposed Texas voter ID law, which would have required voters to show photo identification.

A closer look at LCCHR finds numerous members leading the drive to amend voting laws, including Project Vote, the League of Women Voters and the Soros-funded Voter Participation Center, formerly known as Women’s Voices Women Vote.

Soros and Benghazi probe

Kiko is not alone in his Soros ties among the investigators of the Benghazi attack.

KleinOnine reported Pickering, the State Department’s lead investigator, is tied to Soros and to the revolutions in the Middle East and North Africa through his role as a member of the small board of the International Crisis Group, or ICG, one of the main proponents of the international “Responsibility to Protect” doctrine.

The doctrine is the military protocol that was used to justify the NATO bombing campaign that brought down Moammar Gadhafi’s regime in Libya.

Gareth Evans, president emeritus of the ICG, is the founder and co-author of the doctrine.

Soros is on the ICG’s executive board. Soros’ Open Society Institute is also one of only three nongovernmental funders of the Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect, the group that devised the doctrine.

The ICG itself has long petitioned for talks with Hamas as well as normalized relations with the Muslim Brotherhood. For years, it urged the Egyptian government to allow the Brotherhood to establish an Islamist political party, as KleinOnline previously reported.

Responsibility to Protect, or Responsibility to Act, as cited by Obama, is a set of principles, now backed by the United Nations, based on the idea that sovereignty is not a privilege but a responsibility that can be revoked if a country is accused of “war crimes,” “genocide,” “crimes against humanity” or “ethnic cleansing.”

The term “war crimes” has at times been indiscriminately used by various U.N.-backed international bodies, including the International Criminal Court, or ICC, which applied it to Israeli anti-terror operations in the Gaza Strip. There has been fear the ICC could be used to prosecute U.S. troops.

Right to ‘penetrate nation-states’ borders’

Soros himself outlined the fundamentals of Responsibility to Protect in a 2004 Foreign Policy magazine article titled “The People’s Sovereignty: How a New Twist on an Old Idea Can Protect the World’s Most Vulnerable Populations.”

In the article, Soros said “true sovereignty belongs to the people, who in turn delegate it to their governments.”

“If governments abuse the authority entrusted to them and citizens have no opportunity to correct such abuses, outside interference is justified,” Soros wrote. “By specifying that sovereignty is based on the people, the international community can penetrate nation-states’ borders to protect the rights of citizens.

“In particular,” he said, “the principle of the people’s sovereignty can help solve two modern challenges: the obstacles to delivering aid effectively to sovereign states, and the obstacles to global collective action dealing with states experiencing internal conflict.”

Rothschilds Want Iran’s Banks - one of the Last Central Banks in the World to Loot of its Gold

It's been over three years since the US Fed and its bankster affiliates have been warring on other nations for their gold. From what we know, these assaults have been successful in looting the gold reserves of numerous otherwise friendly nations. Boots on the ground were necessary. Bankers in sneakers pushing wheelbarrows will take it from here. Thank you very much.

Now, the Conspiracy can leave those souls to rot in what the US/UN has wrought. It was under instructions from the Zionist state of Israel these attacks were precipitated.

It remains to be seen how the Conspiracy can wrest India's gold reserves. One option is to foment a conflict between India and Red China.

Refreshing to see someone is connecting the dots we have been posting now for several months:

• Charleston Voice: U.S. eyes Iran's central bank as sanctions target
• US Attacks on Iran's Monetary System Take Hold - an Act of War by the US by any measure!
• The US Plan To Collapse Iran's Central Bank

By Pete Papaherakles - AFP
Could gaining control of the Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran (CBI) be one of the main reasons that Iran is being targeted by Western and Israeli powers? As tensions are building up for an unthinkable war with Iran, it is worth exploring Iran’s banking system compared to its U.S., British and Israeli counterparts.

Some researchers are pointing out that Iran is one of only three countries left in the world whose central bank is not under Rothschild control. Before 9-11 there were reportedly seven: Afghanistan, Iraq, Sudan, Libya, Cuba, North Korea and Iran. By 2003, however, Afghanistan and Iraq were swallowed up by the Rothschild octopus, and by 2011 Sudan and Libya were also gone. In Libya, a Rothschild bank was established in Benghazi while the country was still at war.

Islam forbids the charging of usury, the practice of charging excessive, unreasonably high, and often illegal interest rates on loans,and that is a major problem for the Rothschild banking system. Until a few hundred years ago usury was also forbidden in the Christian world and was even punishable by death. It was considered exploitation and enslavement.

Since the Rothschilds took over the Bank of England they have been expanding their banking control over all the countries of the world. Their method has been to get a country’s corrupt politicians to accept massive loans, which they can never repay, and thus go into debt to the Rothschild banking powers. If a leader refuses to accept the loan, he is oftentimes either ousted or assassinated. And if that fails, invasions can follow, and a Rothschild usury-based bank is established.

The Rothschilds exert powerful influence over the world’s major news agencies. By repetition, the masses are duped into believing horror stories about evil villains. The Rothschilds control the Bank of England, the Federal Reserve, the European Central Bank, the IMF, the World Bank and the Bank of International Settlements. Also they own most of the gold in the world as well as the London Gold Exchange, which sets the price of gold every day. It is said the family owns over half the wealth of the planet—estimated by Credit Suisse to be $231 trillion—and is controlled by Evelyn Rothschild, the current head of the family.

Objective researchers contend that Iran is not being demonized because they are a nuclear threat, just as the Taliban, Iraq’s Saddam Hussein and Libya’s Muammar Qadaffi were not a threat.

What then is the real reason? Is it the trillions to be made in oil profits, or the trillions in war profits? Is it to bankrupt the U.S. economy, or is it to start World War III? Is it to destroy Israel’s enemies, or to destroy the Iranian central bank so that no one is left to defy Rothschild’s money racket?

It might be any one of those reasons or, worse—it might be all of them.

What papers were they shredding and why?

My guess is that the papers targeted had little or nothing to do with the attack on the embassy. They covered what the diplomats in that embassy were doing.

Facilitating trade agreements?

Probably not.

Running arms to anti-Syrnian forces (like ISIS)?

Far more likely.

In Libya, the goal was to arm and empower every thug and lunatic that had a grievance with the government of what was then the country in Africa with the highest standard of living.

Libya (and now Syria) are in total chaos.
