I never knew that Brian Terry intercepted crates of AKs. The radio interview on Hannity with his brother the other day was the first I heard of it. Since he filed complaints with the union, this points more and more to him being targeted specifically, not shot by chance, especially when you look at the fact that the DOJ (FBI) had an informant on the rip crew that killed him. It's certainly plausible. I really fucking hate democrats. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

I just found one page in this thread with 45 hits on "ITAR".
I'm still trying to find the guy that actually called the State Department to ask about ITAR related to Fast & Furious. Michelle Malkin got hot on that trail. Haven't heard anything since. Michelle Malkin Fast & Furious Sipsey Street Irregulars: ITAR and who approved this |

Report: Federal officials kept Mexico gun plans secret
Carlos Canino, the ATF's acting chief in Mexico , and former ATF Mexico chief Darren Gil told congressional investigators that they first noticed a spike in guns recovered at Mexican crime scenes in the fall of 2009. Many of the weapons, Canino and Gil said, were traced back to the Phoenix area.
Alarmed at the number, Gil said he sought explanations from supervisors in Phoenix and Washington, who acknowledged that the weapons were part of an ongoing investigation. Yet, the supervisors would not provide details. "Did you have any idea why you weren't being made aware of the specific details of this investigation?" investigators asked Gil, according to a transcript of the inquiry. "I can tell you what I was told," he said. "They were afraid that I was going to either brief the (U.S.) ambassador on it or brief the Government of Mexico … on it." Gil and Canino are scheduled to testify about the program today before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. The ATF officials in Mexico did not learn the full extent of the trafficking program until January 2011. "Never in my wildest dreams ever would I have thought that this (allowing guns into Mexico) was a technique," Canino said. "Never. Ever. It just, it is inconceivable to me." |

how to interpret this?
One of the guns used in the November 13, 2015 Paris terrorist attacks came from Phoenix, Arizona where the Obama administration allowed criminals to buy thousands of weapons illegally in a deadly and futile "gun-walking” operation known as "Fast and Furious.” A Report of Investigation (ROI) filed by a case agent in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives (ATF) tracked the gun used in the Paris attacks to a Phoenix gun owner who sold it illegally, "off book,” Judicial Watch’s law enforcement sources confirm. Federal agents tracing the firearm also found the Phoenix gun owner to be in possession of an unregistered fully automatic weapon, according to law enforcement officials with firsthand knowledge of the investigation. The investigative follow up of the Paris weapon consisted of tracking a paper trail using a 4473 form, which documents a gun’s ownership history by, among other things, using serial numbers. The Phoenix gun owner that the weapon was traced back to was found to have at least two federal firearms violations—for selling one weapon illegally and possessing an unregistered automatic—but no enforcement or prosecutorial action was taken against the individual. Instead, ATF leaders went out of their way to keep the information under the radar and ensure that the gun owner’s identity was "kept quiet,” according to law enforcement sources involved with the case. "Agents were told, in the process of taking the fully auto, not to anger the seller to prevent him from going public,” a veteran law enforcement official told Judicial Watch. It sounds as though the serial number was run on one of the recovered weapons, and that serial number matched a record that was in an ATF case agent's records as a F&F allowed sale? I hope if I'm ever arrested, they are cautious not to upset me, or else I'll go public!! |

As I recall, there was a post on the cleanupatf site, where someone described a conversation they overheard between two managers, and one of the managers said something to the effect of things really hitting the fan, if the people looking into F&F found out about the other operation in Texas. There was also some article in a local paper in Texas, quoting some "security expert" that was claiming that an airport in southwest Texas was being used as a shipping point for large amounts of weapons and equipment (night vision, body armor, etc) going south of the border, and that the federal government had to have knowledge of it. |

The tipping point has been reached and even the Dems are eating each other but the system keeps rolling on as if nothing has changed, probably because they know that the end game is owned by them. There is nothing they won't deny and nothing they will not do to achieve their goal because, as we have seen throughout the whole "Gunwalker" debacle they own the MSM and this latest wikileaks dump proves it beyond any doubt. I have never been a "prepper" but lately I have been making more preparations in certain areas than I would have previously considered necessary. I think the current cluster is going to end in one big unholy mess and our concerns over this particular series of events from the day this thread started are going to be proven valid. I just hope that we can prevail. |

So Hillary knew before Eric Holder, if you believe Eric Holder's testimony.
This is why Hillary's staffer was so reactive with threats against the journalist who called up State and asked about whether or not ITAR had been considered. "You're going to end up on her list if you follow that line of questioning." It's in this thread somewhere in the middle. |

Those of us who have been around this thread for the last five and a half years owe Mike a debt of gratitude. Without him and David there likely would not have been a "Fast and Furious" for us to protest and call our elected officials to demand that they get off their asses and do something. There would not have been any Sharyl Attkisson expose', nor any of the subsequent furor that came about as a result. We are all totally sickened by the lack of convictions and the obvious criminality behind the cover ups, we are totally sickened by the continuing rise in the death toll as a direct result of this fucked up travesty of a "plan" but we also should be glad that at least light was shed upon the people at the head of this. We did get to see many of them squirming in their seats and we did get to see some of them perjure themselves.
Watching Eric Holder lie to the world was something I'll never forget nor the anger I felt as a result, this was exacerbated by his sham of a contempt hearing where I didn't think I could get even more angry, but I did. We know justice has not been served but, if not for Mike, we may never have known about any of it. He kept on the story like a bulldog, never letting up until the media had no choice but to address it, even if it was in their usual "cover for the Libs" fashion. Mike helped make me more aware of the things that matter. |

I'm having a hard time connecting a 4473 "off the books" sale that gets to Europe. You think every shipping container gets searched? |

Those of us who have been around this thread for the last five and a half years owe Mike a debt of gratitude. Without him and David there likely would not have been a "Fast and Furious" for us to protest and call our elected officials to demand that they get off their asses and do something. There would not have been any Sharyl Attkisson expose', nor any of the subsequent furor that came about as a result.
