The State Department recently confessed to deception, admitting officials purposely deleted several minutes of video footage from a 2013 press briefing in which spokeswoman Jen Psaki admitted her predecessor had lied to a reporter who asked about the Obama administration’s involvement in secret negotiations with Iran.
“You can find that [missing] tape, it’s hidden with the 30,000 missing emails from Hillary Clinton’s server,” host Rick Wiles quipped this week on his TRUNEWS radio show.
His guest, former Department of Homeland Security officer Philip Haney, replied: “Yes, they’re all in a special library somewhere, that’s for sure, and some of my work is there, too, perched on the same shelf, snuggled in with all the other missing information with the IRS and Fast and Furious and false numbers from the border.
“It just seems that somewhere along the way, the administration decided that the best way to deal with unflattering or derogatory information that didn’t suit the narrative was to simply eliminate it.”
There are infamously 28 pages missing from the declassified version of the 838-page congressional report on the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The missing pages are believed to detail Saudi Arabia’s role in supporting the hijackers. Haney said he would be surprised if those pages are ever released, because the U.S. has a “special relationship” with Saudi Arabia built on oil and the containment of terrorism.
“The relationship is always to their advantage, and as soon as we start to take steps to go back and reexamine some of the aspects of history that we should be aware of, suddenly we find a lot of pushback from our so-called friends in Saudi Arabia,” Haney said.
Files that don’t fit ‘narrative’
Haney knows all about the deliberate elimination of information. In 2009, he was ordered to “modify” more than 800 records he had created on individuals and organizations tied to the Muslim Brotherhood. The order came a year after the conclusion of the Holy Land Foundation trial in which the leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood front group were found guilty of supporting Hamas.
Consequently, top DHS officials must have known they were ordering the deletion of crucial information that could potentially prevent a future terrorist attack, according to Haney. However, from the administration’s standpoint, they had to get rid of the files because any derogatory information about Muslim Brotherhood front groups went against the narrative the White House was trying to establish.
“The reason for it is because they were bringing the leaders of these very same organizations deliberately and intentionally into the administration to allow them to help form both domestic and foreign policy vis-a-vis terrorism,” Haney charged.
Haney chronicles his experience as a whistleblower in his new book “See Something, Say Nothing: A Homeland Security Officer Exposes the Government’s Submission to Jihad.”

He said that important information goes “missing” in different ways. For example, he said the United Nations is leading the vetting process for the current crop of refugees coming to America. When the U.N.’s selected refugees arrive at U.S. airports, the Customs and Border Protection officers who greet them don’t have access to the information that was used to vet the refugees.
“So no average line officer in CBP is going to be bold enough to try to refuse entry to those people,” said Haney, who once held a CBP position at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
The Obama administration infamously withheld the fact that it knew the Sept. 11, 2012, Benghazi attack was planned 10 days in advance by an al-Qaida affiliate and was not a spontaneous demonstration based on a YouTube video. That fact was confirmed in a Defense Intelligence Agency report made public in 2015 thanks to Judicial Watch.
However, Haney pointed to far more chilling information from another DIA report made public at the same time. That report revealed U.S. personnel had been monitoring shipments of weapons from Benghazi to the coast of Syria, where they were given to opposition groups ,including al-Qaida and the Muslim Brotherhood. The U.S. encouraged the opposition fighters to take eastern Syria as a buffer between Assad and Iran.
“Of course, when they actually did accomplish taking eastern Syria, what do you suppose they did next?” Haney asked. “They took western Iraq, and that morphed into what we now know as ISIS.”
The administration knew what it was doing in Benghazi, Haney charged, but they deliberately swept all of that damning information under the rug of a false narrative, and it didn’t surface until well after the 2012 election.
Haney warned that if Hillary Clinton is elected president, things will likely get worse because, as secretary of state, she was the architect of many of the failed policies Haney has seen up close. For one thing, it was her State Department that granted visas to jihadists. She also oversaw the disastrous North African/Middle Eastern policy that led to the rise of ISIS.
“She will double down on the approach of enabling these so-called ‘moderates’ like the Muslim Brotherhood to be our buffer in our foreign policy,” he predicted. “But it will never be successful because the Muslim Brotherhood is the parent of groups like Hamas and al-Qaida. The Muslim Brotherhood is the parent of at least every Arabic Sunni jihad group in the world today.”
