Benghazi Report Released: State Department Heavily Criticized



Benghazi Panel Strongly Assails State Dept. Role -- New York Times

WASHINGTON — An independent inquiry into the attack on the United States diplomatic mission in Libya that killed four Americans on Sept. 11 sharply criticized the State Department for a lack of seasoned security personnel and for relying on untested local militias to safeguard the compound, according to a report by the panel made public on Tuesday night.

The investigation into the attacks on the diplomatic mission and the C.I.A. annex in Benghazi that resulted in the deaths of Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three others also faulted State Department officials in Washington for ignoring requests from the American Embassy in Tripoli for more guards and safety upgrades to the mission.

My Comment: More questions are being raised than answered. No names are named .... and the report does not even mention what discipline actions are to be taken.

This is unbelievable.

As I have mentioned on many past posts .... someone has to be held accountable for this tragedy .... for the lack of action when the attack was taking place .... for the lies that were voiced to explain it later .... and for the obfuscation and insensitivity to explain to the families on why their loved ones died. Bottom line .... I expect people to be named and fired for failing to do their job.

And yes .... where is Hillary?
