On 9/11 FOX buries breaking news on Hillary gun running
I don’t know about you, but I missed this story amidst all of the 9/11 tributes and cat videos on Facebook. FOX called it “Breaking News,” yet they didn’t even release it on their main channel or website. This news was relegated to the FOX Business Channel which consistently ranks lower than MSNBC and CNN in ratings. I think our readers will find the connection with Senator McCain interesting…
(FOX BUSINESS 9/11/15) On the third anniversary of the Benghazi terrorist attack, emails reviewed by Fox News raise significant questions about US government support for the secret shipment of weapons to the Libyan opposition.

Turi is facing federal trial this December on two counts that he allegedly violated the arms export control act by making false statements. Turi denies the charges, and alleges there was a rogue weapons operation run with the knowledge of Mrs. Clinton’s state department.
The email dated March 22, 2011 was sent by Admiral James Stavridis, when he was the Supreme Allied Commander Europe, from his government email account to Turi’s business partner David Manners.
The email was also copied to General Carter Ham, then head of the defense department’s Africa command. Stavridis vouches for Manners as a United States Naval Academy classmate and “former CIA Officer with deep connections throughout the near Middle East.”
Also copied on the email is Mike Kostiw who worked for Senator John McCain until February 2011 on the Senate Armed Services committee…
