The new book, Blood Feud, just blew the lid off Benghazi. Following is an excerpt from that book published in the New York Post:

“However, when Hillary picked up the phone and heard Obama’s voice, she learned the president had other ideas in mind. With less than two months before Election Day, he was still boasting that he had al Qaeda on the run. If the truth about Benghazi became known, it would blow that argument out of the water.

“Hillary was stunned when she heard the president talk about the Benghazi attack,” one of her top legal advisers said in an interview. “Obama wanted her to say that the attack had been a spontaneous demonstration triggered by an obscure video on the Internet that demeaned the Prophet Mohammed.”

Hillary allegedly called Bill Clinton and asked for advice.

“During their phone call, Bill started playing with various doomsday scenarios, up to and including the idea that Hillary consider resigning as secretary of state over the issue. But both he and Hillary quickly agreed that resigning wasn’t a realistic option. If her resignation hurt Obama’s chances of winning re-election, her fellow Democrats would never forgive her. Hillary was already thinking of running for president in 2016, and her political future, as well as Obama’s, hung in the balance.”

Obama had put Hillary in a corner, and she and Bill didn’t see a way out. And so, shortly after 10 o’clock on the night of September 11, she released an official statement that blamed the Benghazi attack on an “inflammatory video” posted on the Internet.”

We do not know if any of this is true. Ed Klein is not exactly a pillar of virtue. We don’t even know the identity of the alleged source and whether or not this person actually had this kind of access to Hillary. One problem with this version of events is that it seems too good to be true. One immediately suspects that this story is designed by Hillary supporters to throw Obama permanently under the bus.

If this story is true it is really hard to justify Barack Obama remaining in office as President of the United States. But perhaps the person hurt the most by this story is Hillary. Neither she nor Bill apparently considered putting the country first regardless of the personal political cost. That, sadly, is all too believable.  Ironically if this was true and she had resigned, she probably would have just waltzed into the 2016 Predential election.

Like I said, this just seems too good to be true. But, it is a far more believable explanation than anything released by either the State Department or the White House.
