U.S. military sources serving in North Africa are challenging the
latest White House claim that the administration is applying "all the
resources" at its disposal to bring the Benghazi attackers to justice,
charging instead that the Obama administration knows who is
responsible but is not acting.

"They have let it slip by because of politics, and now we've taken all
the correlation we had and dropped the ball because of risk (aversion)
-- and now the security in Libya is more fragile than ever," one U.S.
special operator told Fox News. The source, speaking on condition of
anonymity, confirms that U.S. forces have tracked the alleged
attackers since October but have since lost the trail of some of them,
as no one up the chain of command would authorize them to capture or
kill the targeted militia members.

Sources who have worked in and around Benghazi since last October
spoke out after White House Press Secretary Jay Carney repeatedly said
at a briefing more than a week ago that the administration was going
after the suspects in the Sept. 11 terror attack. "From the beginning,
the president has committed all the resources of this administration,
of this government, to finding out who was responsible and to bringing
them to justice," Carney said, as he faced a barrage of critical
questions from the press on the heels of reports that challenged the
administration's Benghazi narrative.

"Carney just said they want to bring those responsible to justice --
that's a big ole negative," said one special operator who watched the
press conference with part of his team and disputed Carney's
characterization of the administration's efforts in the wake of the
attack.

According to well-placed sources, the administration has known where
some of the perpetrators are, based on information given to the
Pentagon back in January, but no action has been taken to capture or
kill them.

Further, sources said they are being restricted from any
reconnaissance or advanced force operations to go after those
responsible in the eastern part of Libya.

"We know exactly where the mastermind lives," one U.S. official said.

U.S. intelligence sources claim the "mastermind" and other suspects
are on video that night at the U.S. compound, and that investigators
have other evidence. Fox News reported last fall that investigators
have visually identified several attackers at the compound, including
one who was caught in Turkey, deported to Tunisia and eventually
released by the Tunisian government due to a "lack of evidence."
