Is this the video that Chairman Issa wanted to obtain from the State Department, the so-called “smoking gun” from the hearings.

I don't think so...the drone arrived late....

I believe that the video Issa wants is the LIVE ON LINE STREAMING from hi-res cameras at the consulate....

They were watching all this in USA in real time...

refer to the transcripts of the Issa hearings.

The article says the FBI recovered the video from the site last week. Real time that isn't.

How the video survived that long without being found by someone else first is a real mystery.

They did manage to get a drone over the site, but it didn't arrive until the fight was nearly over.

In any case, it's been known since the get-go that the Benghazi attack was not a demonstration gone wild. We have, for example, the testimony of Ethan Chorin, who was in Benghazi with Dr. Thomas Burke of Mass General, Boston. They were there to assist Libyan doctors in setting up an Emergency Room operation at the Benghazi Medical Center. They and the Libyan doctors were slated to meet with Ambassador Stevens the morning after the attack.

The evening of the attack, Chorin was on the phone with the Ambassador's security detail arranging the meeting, when the call ended abruptly with a shout of "We've got a problem here". Then Chorin and Burke were left to hole up in their hotel listening to sounds of the distant violence.

IOW, no demonstration, no build-up. Just a sudden surprise attack by Al Qaeda. Which we now know would not have been a surprise, but for the incompetence of the Obama State Department.
