Months of investigation by The New York Times, centered on extensive interviews with Libyans in Benghazi who had direct knowledge of the attack there and its context, turned up no evidence that Al Qaeda or other international terrorist groups had any role in the assault.
The attack was led, instead, by fighters who had benefited directly from NATO’s extensive air power and logistics support during the uprising against Colonel Qaddafi. And contrary to claims by some members of Congress, it was fueled in large part by anger at an American-made video denigrating Islam.
again in their rabid desire to get Obama they once again leaped without looking they attack M. Rice IMO because she was saying it was their fault they support those preachers of hate and bigotry don't remember any on the right saying it was wrong silence is tantamount to a green light. now they seek to do as the normally do, do the dirt than try to sweep it on Pres.'s shoes.
To, to recap, the attacks in Benghazi were not carried out by al-Qaeda, were notmeticulously planned, and the motivation to participate in them was largely “a spontaneous reaction to a video.”It appears that Ms. Rice’s comments weren’t all that far off the mark.The lack of an al-Qaeda role is particularly damaging to the Republicans because their main conspiracy theory all along has been that the administration blamed the whole thing on the Innocence of Muslims movie to deflect from the fact that they had not eradicated the terrorist organization by eliminating their leader, Usama bin-Laden. Supposedly, the real problem in Benghazi wasn’t insufficient security but the actual identity of the attackers.
let's face it Pres. got Bin Laden they didn't, he said that Al-Qaeda was decimated, they the republicans were decimated by the fact that he did indeed get him they tried to give Bush credit for it they denied it happened none of which could be proven so keeping in character they saw that grain of salt that they had decimated our # 1 enemy, and once again tried to use it to say they were responsible for Benghazi thereby he was wrong they were not decimated.
sounds desperate and knit picking especially that there has been no corroboration since the attack but like ACA they keep trying to find that proverbial needle i the haystack, if they reached around they would find it sticking in their butts.
