Washington, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – Former Vice President Dick Cheney said on Sunday that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton should be “held accountable” for four Americans who died during a 2012 terrorist attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi. Cheney made the statement during an interview with Chris Wallace on Fox News.

At the same time, Cheney said that after much retrospect and examination of his own conscience, he is now ready to face charges of war crime resulting from the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003 when he was vice president.  Cheney is known to have played a big role in fabricating intelligence on Saddam Hussein’s alleged weapons of mass destruction.  It is estimated that 174,000 combatants and innocent civilians died during the Iraq war.

The former vice president said that he is also ready to face a lesser charge of corruption in connection with shady dealings of his company, Halliburton. Halliburton is an American multinational corporation engaged in oil field services with operations in more than 80 countries. In the run-up to the Iraq war, Halliburton was awarded a $7 billion contract for which ‘unusually’ only Halliburton was allowed to bid.

“So, if I will be held accountable for my crimes, why shouldn’t Mrs. Clinton be held responsible for the Benghazi attack casualties,” Cheney said.

The Adobo Chronicles reached out by telephone to Mr. Cheney on Monday and asked what led him to turn around and admit the charges against him. He said that since he left the Office of the Vice President, he has been having daily nightmares about the Iraq war. After multiple consultations with his pastor, he said he was finally convinced to do the right thing and to admit to his lies and deception that cost hundreds of thousands of innocent lives.

Even for the likes of Cheney, a “coming to Jesus” is always possible.
