More bait, eh?

I am tired and can't focus. But this needs attention so here is my bump.

[b]Obama admin bungled Benghazi, could have prevented attack: report[/b] [i]The 2012 terrorist attack on a U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, could have been averted and the administration failed in initially blaming an anti-Islam video, according to a new report Wednesday from the Senate intelligence committee that contradicts some of the White House’s narrative. In the 85-page report, some of which is redacted, the committee said diplomats in Libya repeatedly warned their superiors about the deteriorating security around Benghazi, but the State Department failed to take action or work with the Pentagon to have an emergency response plan in place. The report also blames the intelligence community for immediately concluding the attacks were spawned by the anti-Islam video — contradicting the conclusions of others who have said pressure from the White House and State Department were to blame. “In finished reports after September 11, 2012, intelligence analysts inaccurately referred to the presence of a protest at the mission facility before the attack based on open source information and limited intelligence, but without sufficient intelligence or eyewitness statements to corroborate that assertion,” the committee report concludes. “The [intelligence community] took too long to correct these erroneous reports, which caused confusion and influenced the public statements of policymakers.”[/i]
