Katherine Herridge reported on Greta tonight that she was shown a classified document from Amb Stevens to Hillary's Dept of State saying the consulate could not withstand a direct hit from AQ militia that were everywhere in eastern Libya and that he thought they would be next to be hit. This was 3 weeks before the actual attack. It also said that the Amb did not think the Libya force would be able to help them. Not a small document, she said it was very detailed and about 6 pages long.

Someone is pissed at this administration and are leaking good info to two Fox reporters.

“RSO (Regional Security Officer) expressed concerns with the ability to defend Post in the event of a coordinated attack due to limited manpower, security measures, weapons capabilities, host nation support, and the overall size of the compound,” the cable said.

According to a review of the cable addressed to the Office of the Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the Emergency Action Committee was also briefed "on the location of approximately ten Islamist militias and AQ training camps within Benghazi … these groups ran the spectrum from Islamist militias, such as the QRF Brigade and Ansar al-Sharia, to ‘Takfirist thugs.’”

So basically we know for sure the mission in Benghazi told Clinton and the Embassy in Tripoli they were in a very vulnerable situation, in detail, and the only action they took was to was to REDUCE our military presence in the annex.

They had sufficient warning and intelligence to increase security there, had sufficient time DURING the attack to send both air and boots on the ground support, and have known since the moment the attack happened who did it and flat lied about their knowledge of any of it.

Yeah, this guy needs to be President. Always good when the Commander in Chief denies support to a US outpost begging for help.

Oh, given this info was given to the Embassy in Tripoli and to Clinton and the US Ambassador in Libya, does anyone a) seriously believe Obama wasn't briefed, and b) that he isn't responsible regardless?

Every President gets 2 national security briefings every day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. They relay a tremendous amount of information to the President every day, but forgot to mention reports of security risks and requests for support from a US outpost almost within site of multiple Al Queda bases? Sitting in a known volatile high risk location in a region that is the center of US foreign policy concerns on a daily basis? Then they not only forgot one day, but didn't get around to it for WEEKS between the assessment and the attacks?

There's no way around the fact: this President was personally aware of the risks faced by the US facilities in Benghazi and chose to do nothing. Absolutely nothing. Further he hired people who were also completely aware for months of the problem and did nothing.

If he were a general he and his staff would appropriately be charged with dereliction of duty and put up for general courts martial.

Like I said, I hope there's a special place in hell for politicians who sell out our soldiers. That's what this administration did in Benghazi. May God rest the souls of those we lost.

Oh, this will also not even register with the mainstream media other than Fox, nor will it register with more than a handful of deciding voters in places like Ohio. They'll worry about their narrow world and personal self interests and not even try to understand the long term implications for the nation.

Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe Americans will rise up and demand accountability and put the nation and these lost men first.

Herridge and Jennifer Griffin, also with FNC, should get journalism awards for their reporting on Benghazi, but they will be stiffed by their Obama-loving Obama-ass-covering peers in the MSM.

Both have done an outstanding job and there are those inside intelligence that realize Fox is the only way to get these leaks and information out. Think all the time spent on watergate which was nothing more than a two bit breakin to find out what the other party knew and were going to do.

This is about the murder of 4 Americans, the destruction of a consulate, the act of war on American soil and the dereliction of duty by the commander in chief and those responsible to him. And not a peep from the MSM, nothing. And the NY Times writes an article blasting Romney for having the nerve to ask for relief supplies in Ohio.

Citizen, these daily briefings are important. except to this sitting president who only attends in person about40% of the time, relying on paper the rest of the time. There is no way in HELL to get accurate reports from paper, you need to be face to face with those bringing the information in order to ask questions and discuss in great detail what is happening.

This president is more worried about being on the View, playing golf, acting like he is some outstanding basketball player, fund raising, and hosting brotherhood of Islam than he is attending intelligence briefings.

But the problem is the MSM will not report any of this, if one does not pay attention to Fox, or certain internet sites, you will never hear of any of this. I hope when this president is burning for what he did to those 4 Americans, the heads of the MSM are there with him. The blood of those 4 are on their heads along with obama, Biden, Clinton, Panetta and even Petreus imo.
