Hillary Clinton’s State
Department refused to place Boko Haram, known for years for its legendary
psychopathic hatred of women, on the list of foreign terrorist organizations in
2011, after the group bombed the UN headquarters in Abuja. The refusal came
despite the urging of the Justice Department, the FBI, the CIA, and over a
dozen senators and congressmen.
“The one thing she could have
done, the one tool she had at her disposal, she didn’t use. And nobody can say
she wasn’t urged to do it,” said a former senior U.S. official who was involved
in the debate. “The FBI, the CIA, and the Justice Department really wanted Boko
Haram designated, they wanted the authorities that would provide to go after
them, and they voiced that repeatedly to elected officials.”
In May 2012, then-Justice
Department official Lisa Monaco wrote to the State Department to urge Clinton to
designate Boko Haram as a terrorist organization. The following month, Gen.
Carter Ham, the chief of U.S. Africa Command, said that Boko Haram provided a
“safe haven” for al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb and was likely
sharing explosives and funds with the group. And yet, Hillary Clinton’s State
Department still declined to place Boko Haram on its official terrorist roster.
Was Hillary's refusal to label
Boko Haram a terrorist group born of the same belligerent blindness that caused her to
fail to recognize the security concerns in Benghazi?
The fatal mishandling of Benghazi
and Boko Haram will haunt Hillary all the days remaining in her miserable,
misguided life.
