Just wondering, do you read what you write?

The poster asked how the video originated. I didn't realize I had to mention that it was "aired" and played over and over.

Please point out where I went wrong?? If you can't then you have a comprehension problem, or have no memory or don't know how it went down.

"It was only hours after Cairo" reaction to video airing. Then to say it is a "convenient lie" to say Benghazi started with demonstration. I would say, that would be a natural thing to suspect. The terrorists had most probably planned the attack on the CIA site at some point and used the opportunity.

It was convenient for the WH to use the video as an excuse - or more to the point - a lie as the cause for the ATTACK in Benghazi. There was no so-called demonstration or protest at Benghazi. The attack on Benghazi did happen hours after the attack on the US embassy in Cairo. Look it up.

You obviously don't know the difference between a protest and an attack. More than likely if you were going to a gun fight you would take a knife - or more than likely a water pistol. Your problem, not mine.

Well yeah, they had no other information to go on.
The CIA had an "intelligence gap" and didn't know there was a terrorist plot to attack Benghazi.

If you don't know what's going to happen then you can't stop it from happening can you ?
The CIA didn't know their base was going to be attacked.

Again, if you dispute what someone writes why don't you post WHY you dispute it instead of attacking.

So you are saying that terrorist were able to react within hours when the U.S. could not?

And exactly how did we know when the terrorist attack was going to end?
