The committee was given three documents (by the FBI?) the day before the hearing that Hillary knew the attack was a planned terrorist attack while she and the Obama administration were peddling the video nonsense. One communique was to the Egyptian Prime Minister from Hillary, the other to Chelsea and I forgot who the third was addressed to.

These emails were not turned over by Hillary to the committee.

We also learned that Hillary did not communicate to her "close personal friend" Ambassador Stevens for almost a year before he was killed. Nor was she involved in any decision to upgrade security at Benghazi.

Were any laws broken? Probably not. Was America's trust in Hillary broken? Definitely.

She's not worthy to answer 3 am phone calls.
conservative commentators are already declaring it a bust.

Like this matters. Hillary will be the next President. It's been decided already. The election will be a sideshow to pacify idiots who think voting matters.

Pushing that false narrative was so flimsy and amateurish that I have to wonder why Hildabeast and Odumbo did it. I mean, I know they needed to blunt the political fallout two months prior to the election but the truth was bound to come out eventually - and it just did. Odumbo could have neutralized the whole issue for 2012 campaign purposes by taking military action to retaliate against the Libyan jihadist groups during the run-up to election day. Voters would have applauded (and I would have too). Instead he and Hildabeast chose to go with the stupid video story, which was a lie and an insult to the intelligence of even low-information voters, but thanks to the connivance of the MSM worked well enough to win re-election. But then after the election, it was the lie that kept all those Benghazi committees going. The incompetence and negligence and security lapses might have been forgiven, but not the amateurish and infuriating lies about the video.



POTOMAC WATCH

She Knew All Along

The House hearing on Benghazi reveals that Hillary Clinton’s spin about the attack was a politically expedient fiction.



By KIMBERLEY A. STRASSEL

Oct. 22, 2015 7:32 p.m. ET


Thanks to Hillary Clinton’s Benghazi testimony on Thursday, we now understand why the former secretary of state never wanted anyone to see her emails and why the State Department sat on documents. Turns out those emails and papers show that the Obama administration deliberately misled the nation about the deadly events in Libya on Sept. 11, 2012.

Don’t forget how we came to this point. Mrs. Clinton complained in her testimony on Capitol Hill that past Congresses had never made the overseas deaths of U.S. officials a “partisan” issue. That’s because those past deaths had never inspired an administration to concoct a wild excuse for their occurrence, in an apparent attempt to avoid blame for a terror attack in a presidential re-election year.

The early hints that this is exactly what happened after the murder of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans cast doubt on every White House-issued “fact” about the fiasco and led to the establishment of Rep. Trey Gowdy’s select committee.

What that House committee did Thursday was finally expose the initial deception. To understand the willful depth of that trickery, let’s briefly recall the history.

In early September 2012, at the Democratic National Convention, Vice President Joe Biden summarized to thunderous applause the administration’s re-election pitch: “Osama bin Laden is dead, and General Motors is alive.” Translation: The president had revived the economy, even as he had put “al Qaeda on the run,” as Mr. Obama put it. Five days later, four Americans in Benghazi were dead. It appeared the White House had slept through a terror attack on the anniversary of 9/11.

The administration instead immediately presented the attack as a spontaneous mob backlash to an anti-Muslim YouTube video. At 10:30 on the night of the attack, Mrs. Clinton issued a statement about the violence, blaming the video. She repeated the charge in a speech the next day. President Obama gave his own speech that day, referring to the video and refusing to use the word “terrorism.”

The next day, Mrs. Clinton mentioned the video twice more. The day after that, Press Secretary Jay Carney said: “We have no information to suggest that it was a preplanned attack.” Mrs. Clinton promised the father of one of the victims that the administration would “make sure that the person who made that film is arrested and prosecuted.” In his weekly address, Mr. Obama talked about the video. When the Libyan president said there was evidence the attack was planned months in advance, U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice contradicted him. She instead told five Sunday talk shows—five days after the attack—that “based on the best information we have to date,” the attack “began spontaneously” in response to “this hateful video.” Mr. Obama for two full weeks continued to talk about YouTube.

Here’s what the Benghazi committee found in Thursday’s hearing. Two hours into Mrs. Clinton’s testimony, Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan referred to an email Mrs. Clinton sent to her daughter, Chelsea, at 11:12 the night of the attack, or 45 minutes after the secretary of state had issued a statement blaming YouTube-inflamed mobs. Her email reads: “Two of our officers were killed in Benghazi by an Al Queda-like group.” Mrs. Clinton doesn’t hedge in the email; no “it seems” or “it appears.” She tells her daughter that on the anniversary of 9/11 an al Qaeda group assassinated four Americans.

That same evening, Mrs. Clinton spoke on the phone with Libyan President Mohamed Magariaf, around 8 p.m. The notes from that conversation, in a State Department email, describe her as saying: “We have asked for the Libyan government to provide additional security to the compound immediately as there is a gun battle ongoing, which I understand Ansar as Sharia [sic] is claiming responsibility for.” Ansar al Sharia is al Qaeda’s affiliate on the Arabian Peninsula. So several hours into the attack, Mrs. Clinton already believed that al Qaeda was attacking U.S. facilities.

The next afternoon, Mrs. Clinton had a call with the Egyptian Prime Minister Hesham Kandil. The notes from it are absolutely damning. The secretary of state tells him: “We know that the attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film. It was a planned attack—not a protest.” And yet Mrs. Clinton, and Ms. Rice and Mr. Obama for days and days continued to spin the video lie.

In other news Thursday, Judicial Watch unveiled a new cable, sent the day after the attack, from the Defense Intelligence Agency to the State Department Command Center. It explains that the attack was carried out by a “Salafi terrorism group” in “retaliation for the killing of an Al Qaeda operative.”

The cable says “the attack was an organized operation with specific information that the U.S. Ambassador was present.” The cable included details about the group’s movements and the weapons it used in the assault.

Count on the Obama administration to again resort to blaming “confusing” and “conflicting” information at the time for its two-week spin. That was Mrs. Clinton’s flimsy excuse at the hearing. But her own conversations prove she was in no doubt about what happened—while it was still happening.

Democrats on the committee spent most of the hearing complaining that it was a waste of time and money. Quite the opposite. It was invaluable, for the clarity provided by those three emails alone.

Nobody lost a paycheck either! Well, except Stevens and three other Americans. Nobody apparently disciplined.

Not worthy of a 3 am phone call! Bill won't even call her, he's out partying with the Secret Service.

People died, Hillary lied.

Hillary takes responsibility for benghazi

but nothing happens, she only has desires for ever higher office

and the American people get the type of government they deserve


what does taking responsibility mean? does it mean to stop all inquiry from that point? is it meant to be a message to the main stream media, ok now time to move along?

the one thing that surely needs to be changed is the inability to fire anyone in government ..Hillary spent time defending herself yesterday by claiming she couldn't do anything to state department employees that failed in their duties because of work rules, but im sure she would defend those rules to her last breath should she be president

its really a topsy turvy world we live in

why does government not work and why is it seen as against the people?
for three reasons I can think of:

1. no one in government has a real proprietary interest in what happens,
2. union work rules that make a shambles of common sense and accountability
3. everything is only all about the next election.

government fails because it is distant and apart from the people; its set not to serve but to be served.
