Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Wednesday suggested there was a link between the Al Qaeda franchise in North Africa and the attack at the American diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, that killed the American ambassador and three others. She was the highest-ranking Obama administration official to publicly make the connection, and her comments intensified what is becoming a fiercely partisan fight over whether the attack could have been prevented.
The question is not whether it could have been prevented. It definitely could with security.
The question is why they wanted to cover up the attack to a spontaneous riot so very soon after it and cover up their incompetence.
This fiasco will have ramifications at embassies all over the world from this day forward.
Do you still want Hillary to get that phone call at 3:00 A.M. ?
