The Big Reveal: The Story of How 470,000 Documents from Osama Bin Laden's Compound Finally Got Into the Open

Obama’s theme to win re-election was Al Qaeda was alternately “on the run” or “decimated” or “on the path to defeat.” It was a lie he created and his minions promulgated. He corrupted agencies and people in his cause.

S. Noble    "The administration has released 470,000 files from the Bin Laden raid kept hidden by the Obama administration. Stephen Hayes, in an article at The Weekly Standard, explains why he hid them.

"Barack Obama and his minions literally ignored the best interests of the United States in defense and nationals security without hesitation for the cause.The Abbottabad Documents as they were known were kept from the public and even left untranslated because they didn’t fit the political narrative and that is all that mattered. It mattered beyond truth, beyond fighting terrorism and only winning office and furthering the agenda mattered.

"National Security Advisor at the time Tom Donilon described the haul as enough to fill a “small college library” It was “the single largest collection of senior terrorist materials ever,” he said. While making these comments, they only released 571 documents.

"Why did this happen?

The self-proclaimed “most transparent administration in history” had spent more than five years misleading the American people about the threat from al Qaeda and its offshoots and had paid very little price for having done so. Republicans volubly disputed the president’s more laughable claims—the attack on the Benghazi compound was just a protest gone bad, al Qaeda was on the run, ISIS was the terrorist junior varsity—but the establishment media, certain that Obama’s predecessor had consistently exaggerated the threat, showed little interest in challenging Obama or the intelligence agencies that often supported his spurious case.

Daily Wire  . . . "[Stephen] Hayes delineates how the documents show a much closer relationship between al Qaeda and Iran than had been heretofore assumed. He points out that Obama in his first term centered on how George W. Bush had allegedly ruined the war on terror but the second term was focused on making a deal with the Iranian government. He adds:

In a manner of speaking, Barack Obama wanted what al Qaeda already had: a mutually beneficial partnership with Tehran. Revealing to the American people the truth about Osama bin Laden’s cozy working relationship with the Iranian government might have fatally undermined that diplomatic quest, just as the ongoing vitality of al Qaeda, amply testified to in the bin Laden documents, would have contradicted Obama’s proud claims in 2012 that al Qaeda was “on the run.” So Obama, with the eager cooperation of some in the intelligence community, bottled up the bin Laden documents and ran out the clock.
