Libyan consulate.
But intelligence source in Libya telling Fox News there was no demonstration outside the consulate.
Before the deadly attack but more on -- -- -- colonel Anthony Schaeffer author of operation dark heart.
Retired lieutenant colonel Ralph Peters Fox News genetic analyst and author of gaining Gettysburg -- Join me now yeah.
If I -- to start with you we got her two completely different stories yesterday on on the morning talk shows you've got.
Susan Rice a bigger saying that it was this was spontaneous.
The president Bolivia on the same show saying absolutely not this was pre -- we believe.
You believe the the Libyan government this case because I think they have the most to lose by putting out -- correct information.
They are are allied they are all by all counts pro EU us.
And so we have to look at here is what the facts are now revealing and I think the problem is this.
This administration is devoted so much energy to saying hey we're going to be kind learn -- we want to be that softer.
Kind of people you want to reach out and hug unfortunately the folks were dealing with -- don't want to be -- and and in this case we're talking about a very concerted well planned attack.
-- the ambassador suffered.
It was not adequately.
Protected can't and plus most embarrassing it happened on the 9/11 anniversary and yes there was no -- it's at the time this happened.
You know colonel Peters at the same time one of the things that has that the criticisms of the Obama administration -- handling of all of this has been that we are coming across is apologetic.
And in Middle Eastern culture that's the last thing you want to do once you come across as weak.
They believe that -- -- -- -- they can take out an and there are not kidding with all of this you think that's a big problem for the administration right now well.
Absolutely got an Arab culture a man never apologizes.
Unless he's innocent time positions are subservient.
He has -- basically beg for survival.
As -- IQ our president.
Credit for good intentions.
But he didn't do his homework.
He doesn't understand the greater Middle East especially not the Arab world and so is living -- apologies.
When you look at it through the eyes of our enemies the Islamist terrorists.
This year a president apologizes for America over and over again so they can turn their followers say -- -- America even admits they're the great Satan.
Then we have his unwillingness to confirm that -- -- wrong indecisiveness about Syria.
The precipitous retreat from Iraq after we -- now to their -- satellite his equivocation -- Afghanistan.
And what you're seeing Cheryl is a comprehensive.
Collapse.
Of Obama's middle east policy and the administration is gonna tell any lie they need to to just stretch it out through November.
-- -- -- gentlemen colonel -- first -- -- I want you to listen to this SoundBite from Susan Rice yesterday.
She was on the she -- the -- surrounds fair enough but but she's.
Here's what she said disarm bastard I nation's history today yesterday I wanna get your reaction on the other side.
This was not a pre planned premeditated.
Attack.
That what happened initially was it it was a spontaneous.
Reaction to what had just transpired in Cairo.
-- as a consequence of the video bid for -- people gathered outside the embassy and then it's it grew very violent.
Our -- -- colonel -- in you've said that that know anybody -- with the military background knows this was not some kind of spontaneous act young tech rocket propelled grenades.
US to a protests outside of an embassy at the same time that she is the won the -- administration put out as the face of this.
Yesterday was that the right call.
And I think it's the right call for the administration regarding policy because it is as -- said.
They're trying to do anything they can to lie their way out of this -- either she was she was lying or misinformed.
The bottom line is as it was a well planned well orchestrated attack.
And the other thing to try to hard here -- -- be very blunt about this.
The series of leaks have helped give our enemy a huge advantage of the battlefield from Obama's wars of Woodward book to all the leaks in New York Times a problem is.
The al-Qaeda is found how we track them and now they're working to get around it.
And even what that said we had three days warning -- Jay Carney has the gall to say.
There was no actionable intelligence that's code for saying there was -- intelligence but we chose not to -- into it and that's the sad fact.
Colonel Peters do agree with that assessment.
Yeah absolutely an actual intelligence that's a code word for we knew something that.
Not enough to kill people.
And also Tony's absolutely right that this wasn't pre planned phased commando attack complete with ambushes -- center.
But you know.
Sure I've got to tell you because your audience is largely -- business audience didn't and when I look at this his uncanny to me.
The similarity between President Obama is blaming all of America's ills on our rich Americans.
And the Middle Eastern.
Terrorists.
Blaming all of burials on America is riches.
It's it's a global class struggle and it can only end badly.
Colonel Peters out as dire warning from new we certainly do listen when you come on the -- with us colonel Peters colonel Schaeffer thanks to both of you appreciate your time --
