What other conclusions can one draw from this from the AP?
WASHINGTON — The State Department said Tuesday it never concluded that
the consulate attack in Libya stemmed from protests over an American-made
video ridiculing Islam, raising further questions about why the Obama
administration used that explanation for more than a week after assailants
killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans.
The revelation came as new documents suggested internal disagreement
over appropriate levels of security before the attack, which occurred on the
11th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks on the U.S.
Briefing reporters ahead of a hotly anticipated congressional hearing
Wednesday, State Department officials provided their most detailed rundown
of how a peaceful day in Benghazi devolved into a sustained attack that
involved multiple groups of men armed with weapons such as machine guns,
rocket-propelled grenades and mortars over an expanse of more than a mile.
But asked about the administration’s initial — and since retracted —
explanation linking the violence to protests over an anti-Muslim video
circulating on the Internet, one official said, “That was not our
conclusion.” He called it a question for “others” to answer, without
specifying. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren
’t authorized to speak publicly on the matter, and provided no evidence
that might suggest a case of spontaneous violence or angry protests that
went too far.
Just as a reminder the Obama administration couldn’t get its story squared
with the facts for well over a week. The Heritage Foundation put out this
helpful video essay of the administration’s cover up on the assassination
of U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others in Benghazi, Libya on
September 11, 2012. |
