b*****d 发帖数: 61690 | 1 A new report from the Senate Intelligence Committee says the September 2012
terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, could have been prevented.
The bipartisan report released Wednesday concludes that the State Department
failed to increase security in Benghazi, despite intelligence reports on
the deteriorating security situation and warnings that U.S. facilities were
at risk ahead of the Sept. 11, 2012, attack, where U.S. Ambassador
Christopher Stevens and three other Americans were killed.

“The committee found the attacks were preventable, based on extensive
intelligence reporting on the terrorist activity in Libya — to include
prior threats and attacks against Western targets — and given the known
security shortfalls at the U.S. Mission,” the panel said in a statement on
the report.
The bipartisan rebuke of the State Department could create political
problems for Hillary Clinton, who was secretary of State at the time of the
attack.
Republicans have promised to make Benghazi a campaign issue in 2016 should
Clinton run for president, and they singled her out in an appendix to the
report.
"Ultimately, however, the final responsibility for security at diplomatic
facilities lies with the former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton," the
Republican senators wrote.
