Report on Libya cites State Dept. for security failures, confirms no protest before attack
Fox News ^ | December 18, 2012

DEVELOPING: Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has accepted 29 suggestions to improve embassy security issued as part of a review board's report that faults Clinton's department for security failures and confirms no protest preceded the deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.

The release of the report, posted Tuesday night on the State Department's website, comes after more than three months of intense debate in Washington over who was behind the attack, what motivated the attacks and why U.S. authorities weren't able to stop the violence,...

~snip~

Although the motive for the attack remains unclear, the report confirms what quickly became evident -- that the attack was the coordinated work of terrorists.

The MSM is still gathering and checking the facts before they can report on this...

Yep, it seems 3+ months hasn’t given them enough time to figure out the facts nor the Obama crowd. :)

Exactly...You and I know it and most everyone in the world knows it but Obama and thugs are not about to admit it, he and his minions are despicable.

no individuals are held responsible for serious failures, no corrective action, no one disciplined - IMO the report is covering for senior management.

The report criticized State Department management. So it will disappear down the Memory Hole so Hillary can run for President in 2016.

The fault is Obama’s, because Hillary has never had an idea in her life and has actually spent her entire life cleaning up after powerful men. Thus, she clearly did not come up with either the plan or its enactment.

She’s been a good girl up to now and she has done as she was told, but she didn’t want to take the blame for this one. Hence the “concussion.”

So what was so awful that even the Ultimate Teflon President wants to make Hillary walk the plank?

I honestly can’t imagine, unless maybe Bambi went off to bed and told everybody, including Hillary, not to bother him until morning. So she would still be protecting him and maybe she, like the mother of many a mentally disturbed person, would rather go down with the ship than acknowledge the fact that her baby is crazy and would kill her as soon as look at her.

So we still don’[t know who started the talk of it being a video? Who told Susan Rice to go on 5 Sunday talk shows and mention it was a video? Why was Jay Carney still mentioning the video that long after the attack when it was NEVER the video? Who arranged for the consulate to have no American security? Where was Obama during the real time video feed of the attacks that were being fed into the WH Situation Room?

This is the end of Hillary. She is now hiding from Congress with fake head aches and is directly to blame for lax security believing that muslims were good folks and would never hurt a flee. She has failed in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia ,Syria. In fact she doesn’t have a single success. Now she has the blood of brave but defenseless Americans on her hands. She should resign.

Until I read differently, my understanding is that our embassy asked for help several times, and were ignored by our State Department. This got four Americans killed and we yet have to strike back.
