Susan Rice, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, told Jack Tapper on ABC’s This Week that the attack on the consulate in Libya which resulted in the murders of four American staff members was NOT premeditated.
I guess Rice didn’t have time to read the statement from the President of Libya who has reportedly arrested 10 people for the attack against the U.S. in Libya, and expressed that he has “no doubt” that the attack was premeditated.
It is fundamentally dishonest how the White House continues to contradict all hard evidence, the President of Libya, and its own federal investigators to continue to push the patently false allegation that the attack in Libya was caused by a 22 minute YouTube video trailer of an unreleased movie.
“Our current best assessment, based on the information that we have at present, is that, in fact, what this began as, it was a spontaneous – not a premeditated – response to what had transpired in Cairo. In Cairo, as you know, a few hours earlier, there was a violent protest that was undertaken in reaction to this very offensive video that was disseminated. We believe that folks in Benghazi, a small number of people came to the embassy to – or to the consulate, rather, to replicate the sort of challenge that was posed in Cairo. And then as that unfolded, it seems to have been hijacked, let us say, by some individual clusters of extremists who came with heavier weapons… And it then evolved from there.”

Her proof of a security presence are the deaths of 2 Americans? Are you kidding me?
Word on the street is that the 2 ex SEALS were there to get a handle on missing SAMs.Which makes way more sense.
