WASHINGTON (AP) -- Senior State Department officials provided a more detailed picture Tuesday of the consulate attack in Benghazi, Libya, that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. A look at how they say the attack took place:


TOPICS: Government; News/Current Events
KEYWORDS: benghazi; benghazidospresser; benghazitimeline; dospresser; statedepartment
State Department offers thrilling, un notated, and one may suspect, concocted narrative Tuesday of the consulate slaughter in the American compound, Benghazi.

Seems amongst locals, widely understood that Chris was tortured long and hard, prior to death by wana-be Taly. Not for critical information (which lay scattered around, for days). Repeated suffocation, takes hours I'm told. "we didn't want him dead".

Hay Hill. How long does it take to spin up an autopsy report? Were our men tortured and murdered or just murdered?

It's a special kind of hell when the people lose all faith in their leaders and just suck it up.

ABC reported tonight that Hillary and Obama lied about the whole story of the Benghazi attack. There never was any protest that escalated to violence. There was only a military style attack, unlike any that we have experienced outside of war.

From ABC, via the FOX Nation:

On ABC News’ World News Tonight, Jonathan Karl breaks the news that there was no protest outside prior to the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi.

“This is significantly different than what we were being told at the time. At the time, as you recall, we were told it was a protest that went bad and became an attack. Now, we are told there was no protest going on outside that embassy. The first indication that they heard anything outside the walls of the embassy — of the consulate compound, was an explosion and gunfire. They looked through a camera to see what was going on and we are told they saw a large number of armed men coming and approaching that compound. We’re told it was a very complex attack without precedent in U.S. diplomatic history. We’ve never seen an attack like this in Libya or anywhere else, we were told by this senior State Department official,” Karl reported.

Since that's not in the article, what is your source, and what is a "Taly?"

It appears that the press is beginning to turn on Obama and Hillary on this one. Tonight, FOX picked up the ABC story and AP had it as well. I have to think that the press is beginning to be worried over the results of that presidential debate and are beginning to worry about Romney winning the election.

I think the inscription on his ring speaks volumes:

'There is no God but Allah'

Fox apparently was deliberately DISINCLUDED from the state department briefing. What did they think we’d not find out?

Bohannan just had an interview with a Green Beret and he said Hillary must be fired or must resign with a cloud over head, because she withdrew his troopers and repeatedly denied any assistance as well as ignored reports of on-going attacks in the area. Terrible critique from an active duty (I think) military person. If he’s not active, he’s still pissing Base Water.

This is significantly different than what we were being told at the time.

This is significantly different than we were told for ONE WEEK after the event. We were told that the pictures of the ambassador, in the arms of unidentified males, was being "helped" to the hospital in an attempt to save his life.

There is a much bigger story here, one of incompetence at best, that is not being covered by the MSM.
