(CBS News) It was six weeks ago on Tuesday that terrorists attacked the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
Now, CBS News has obtained email alerts that were put out by the State Department as the attack unfolded. Four Americans were killed in the attack, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
These emails contain the earliest description so far of what happened at Benghazi the night of the attack.
At 4:05 p.m. Eastern time, on September 11, an alert from the State Department Operations Center was issued to a number government and intelligence agencies. Included were the White House Situation Room, the office of the Director of National Intelligence, and the FBI.
"US Diplomatic Mission in Benghazi Under Attack" -- "approximately 20 armed people fired shots; explosions have been heard as well. Ambassador Stevens, who is currently in Benghazi, and four COM (Chief of Mission/embassy) personnel are in the compound safe haven."
At 4:54 p.m., less than an hour later, another alert: "the firing... in Benghazi...has stopped...A response team is on site attempting to locate COM (embassy) personnel."
Then, at 6:07 p.m., State sent out another alert saying the embassy in Tripoli reported the Islamic military group "Ansar al-Sharia Claims Responsibilty for Benghazi Attack"... "on Facebook and Twitter and has called for an attack on Embassy Tripoli."

I’m sure we’ll soon hear that Obama knew nothing of this, or that if he did lie it was only this once.
Watching Sarah on Greta replay right now, they're raking the *Punk* over the coals, big time, about that.
Got to give Greta credit, she won't let go over why they lied about the film.
Okay, who wants to bet the MSM will instead report on Richard Mourdock in the coming days rather than reporting this?
Sharyl Attkisson & her producer need to watch their backs.
Maybe Mr. Ailes at Fox News will save her and give her a job where more people will see what a real journalist does before they are all extinct.
Yep. Just when Obama et al thought the Benghazi flap was dying down, here come these emails that blow the lid off the lies they've been telling.
This is tectonic shifting stuff. People need to resign, more need to spill, and others need to be impeached. Lots need to go to jail.
Not to mention contempt of the American people. This president and administration blatantly lied to the American people
Greta seemed surprised at how they lied so blatantly. She was pretty good tonight. No, she won’t let go.
think the admin has their balls caught in a particularly nasty bear trap and are squirming to find a way out.
I think this story has legs.
But I agree with the poster upstream 1/2 of last nights debate ought to been about this so you might be right.
I think this can be a killer. These were the primary source of the lies.

Sharyl Attkisson is a great journalist!
Nope, gotta get to Vegas.
This should be a lesson to the rest of the MSM. Do your job, investigate, and state the facts, and we will watch. That’s all we really ask.
Don’t do this, and you will continue to lose viewers.
This story is the nail in the coffin on Obama. Clearly, there are people that work for the govt, that are making an effort to provide proof about what really happened.
In the coming days, we’ll see proof about the before part, which should be very troubling indeed, as it proves that the administration didn’t just fail to protect them, or tell the truth about what happened, but actually went out of their way to put them into obvious and imminent danger. By the time the proof is over, a reasonable person is going to ask if the administration was hoping they’d all get slaughtered.

You get a valid email address if you take the “name” from the one email, and put it at the front part of @state.gov, for many of the emails. (The redacted portions on the emails are provided in the third email.)
You too can send a personal note to the people that stood by and did nothing as Americans were killed in Benghazi.
