Ok, let's say they were his official security detail. Is that a sick joke?
"Hey guys in Libya, we know there have been a bunch of attacks over the past several months, and we know you fear for your lives and we know youve asked for MORE security. So instead, how about this? We'll actually TAKE AWAY security, AND let you go in there on the anniversary of 9/11.... Sound good? Good."
So they get killed and then this Admin acts shocked, tries to blame it on a movie, isnt truthful with the public, etc etc
No they thought they could blame it all on a movie. The Ambassador believed he was on a hit list as well.
Was the Ambassador there to meet with Ben Ghazi? Was this when he requested more security? Perhaps the the Ghazi's were still allied with the former government?
Benghazi is a city, the second largest in Libya.
It always amazes me that you constantly post about your *superior intellect* and yet so often you do not know the most basic facts. Spending time learning basic geography and your government representatives would be a more worthwhile endeavor than trying to find articles about liberal superiority.

oops, well that was embarrassing. I stand corrected.
but anyway the Libyan Attache whom I mentioned by name backs what Obama is saying.
Well I'm not voting for Obama but your beloved GOP Congress refused to let a bill that come up for a vote that would have stopped this illegal Libya intervention to begin with.
So people like me sleep well at night, knowing that this careerist Government employee would be alive today because he would have never been over there in the first place.
So you can resume your partisan Obama bashing without ever acknowledging the fundamental crime that went on here, abetted by the GOP, with the full support of Romney.
This is just out today! ABC NEWS with VIDEO Security Team Commander Says Ambassador Stevens Wanted His Team to Stay in Libya Past August
Asked for comment to the memo and Wood’s comments, a spokesman for the House Oversight Committee told ABC News: “Diplomats working in Libya viewed security provided by highly trained Americans as critical to their safety and mission. The Oversight Committee’s investigation continues to seek answers about why — even as threats against Americans increased — senior State Department officials erroneously decided such security was no longer needed.”
The request concludes: “Given the unstable security environment, projected staffing increases, lack of physical and technical security upgrades in place and continued high volume of VIP visits, Embassy Tripoli requests an extension” of the Security Support Team for four months, which “will allow us to implement the security transition plans recommended by the Department. A loss of SST now would severely and negatively impact our ability to achieve the Department’s policy and management objectives at this critical time in Libya’s transition.” But ultimately the SST left and “they just had to make do with less security,” Wood told ABC News.
You should probably stand back from the keyboard as well.
Meaning what?
When I come on a serious topic like this, just concerned citizens, unmotivated by partisanship, trying to come together in spirit of bi-partisanship, so this tragic killing of an American never happens again, I too get serious.
Now who wants to refute the Libyan Attache's version of events?
They Libyan Attache assigned to the consulate, Sooq Madiq, is saying the exact opposite.
There is talk that there were people on the inside so of course they might say opposite
