But what actually did happen in Benghazi on the night of September 11, 2012?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDark Forces\u003c\/em\u003e is the story of clandestine arms deliveries by the United States and its allies to Libya that wound up in the hands of Islamist guerrillas. It’s a story of a romantic diplomat, in love with the Middle East and with a mystical version of Islam. It’s a story of bald-faced lies, heroic acts, and the deepest corruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut \u003cem\u003eDark Forces\u003c\/em\u003e is not only a retelling of events.

Nor was it planned by local militias.It was a state-sponsored terrorist attack with Iranian fingerprints all over it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat's more, the Obama administration knew from the first minutes of the attack that the compound had been targeted by an organized, professionally trained terrorist group. But the administration made up a ridiculous cover story about a nonexistent demonstration over an Internet movie in an attempt to fool the American public on the eve of a national election. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Iran-Contra scandal consumed Ronald Reagan's second term and nearly destroyed his presidency. Yet as bad as that was, what happened in Benghazi is much worse. As Ken Timmerman reveals in \u003cem\u003eDark Forces\u003c\/em\u003e, the Benghazi affair will go down as the deepest, darkest, dirtiest political scandal of recent American history. And for all the coverage it has received, the real story has still not been told. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's a story of clandestine arms deliveries to Libyan rebels that wound up in the hands of Islamist guerrillas allied with al Qaeda. It's a story of a romantic American diplomat who gets caught up in a whirlwind beyond his comprehension or control. It's a story of bald-faced lies, heroic acts, and the deepest corruption. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDark Forces\u003c\/em\u003e is much more than a retelling of what happened in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. It puts those events into the larger context of the Obama administration's policy toward the Middle East—from Iran to the Arab Spring. It examines the administration's record of systematically supporting the Muslim Brotherhood and al Qaeda–affiliated groups in their efforts to overthrow pro-U.S. autocrats in Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya. It shows how this went along with the administration's outreach to the Islamist regime in Iran. It argues that President Obama's obsessive outreach to the leadership of the Islamic Republic of Iran led the Iranian regime to dismiss him as a weak, ineffective leader who would not fight back when hit. And it reveals why and how this deadly combination cost the lives of four Americans, and today endangers thousands more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten with the breakneck pacing of a political thriller, and drawing on exclusive research and privileged sources, \u003cem\u003eDark Forces\u003c\/em\u003e tells the full story of Benghazi as you have never heard it before. \u003c\/p\u003e | \u003cp\u003e“Ken Timmerman’s superbly researched Dark Forces is a brilliant expose of what actually happened in Benghazi before, during, and after the fateful night of September 11, 2012.
