Hmmmmmmm.. doesn't it seem a bit odd to anyone here that an event of this magnitude wouldn't even register a mention of the anti-Islam film on social networks on the day of the attack (especially being as it was 9/11)? Very odd, indeed.... View attachment 1143
Wouldn't you love to be a fly on the wall in the WH right now? Can you imagine the back & forth between the BO & Clinton factions of the gov't?
It's not looking good for the Obama administration and Hillary's State Department, especially: View attachment 1146
FINALLY! It appears as if Hillary may finally testify! Senator calls for 'top-to-bottom review' of State Department ahead of Clinton testimony January 22, 2013 The incoming top Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee called Tuesday for a "top-to-bottom review" of the State Department, as the panel prepares to hear long-awaited testimony on the Libya terror attack from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Lawmakers have waited months to ask Clinton direct questions about the Benghazi attack, in which U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans were killed. That attack, though, may just be the starting point for Wednesday's hearings -- Clinton will also testify on the House side -- amid mounting questions about the hostage crisis in Algeria and the French-led military campaign in neighboring Mali. Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., told Fox News "there's going to be a lot of questions about just the overall policies of this administration as it relates to" Al Qaeda's affiliate in North Africa. An Al Qaeda-tied operative has claimed responsibility for the attack at a gas plant in Algeria that left 37 hostages dead, including three Americans. The attack follows the militant strike on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi in September. Corker suggested the developments challenge an administration that was "spiking the ball on Al Qaeda" last year as the U.S. chipped away at the group's leadership in Pakistan and Afghanistan, and took out Usama bin Laden the year before that. "That's where the core of Al Qaeda (is), but there are all these nodes that are scattered through Africa now that obviously are a threat to Western civilization, and it's as if they've taken their eye off the ball," Corker said. He called for a "top-to-bottom review" of the department, though said he doesn't expect any "bombshells" to drop Wednesday as it pertains to Libya. Congress has held multiple hearings to date, with lower-level officials testifying, on the Benghazi attack. The administration has gradually backed off its position that the attack was spontaneous -- an assertion that drew the ire of congressional lawmakers who said it was clearly planned. An official State Department-sanctioned report has resulted in several officials leaving their current posts, after finding "systemic failures" left the Benghazi compound inadequately protected. The hearing Wednesday, though, is a chance for lawmakers to question Clinton on what she might have known about requests for security at the Benghazi post -- and what she thinks should be done to improve security going forward, as she prepares to leave the department. Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., has been nominated to replace her. There are also questions about how the Obama administration responded to the crisis during the Sept. 11, 2012, attack. Fox News has learned from senior U.S. defense officials that a FAST team of Marines out of Spain was asked by State Department officials to change out of their Marine uniforms after being asked to leave for Libya to help -- this required them to deplane and delayed them by about 90 minutes, according to Pentagon officials. (WHAT?!?!?!? Has anyone on this forum heard this revelation before? If true, it has to be one of the most bungled, incompetent responses in modern history)!!!!

Why haven't we heard from the Benghazi survivors? Is the White House really telling them to keep quiet? I'd like to know. View attachment 1552 http://nation.foxnews.com/lindsey-g...nghazi-survivors-told-be-quiet-administration
I heard yesterday that at lest one of them was registered in a hospital under an assumed name courtesy of the government.
It does seem strange that after all these months we haven't heard anything from them. But, the lefties don't seem to care; they apparently want Benghazi to quietly disappear.
