Condi Rice On �Benghazi-Gate�
Former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice broke with the majority of
her party last night on Fox News, as she tried to hit the brakes on
the right wing�s politicization of the recent attack in Libya.
Host Greta Van Susteren asked Rice directly and repeatedly about a set
of emails uncovered by Reuters. In what has been dubbed
�Benghazi-Gate,� the conservative media has jumped on the emails as
definitive proof that the Obama administration has been lying about
what it knew and when in the aftermath of the Sept. 11 attack on a
diplomatic mission in Benghazi. Rice�s response was likely not what
Van Susteren expected:
RICE: But when things are unfolding very, very quickly, it�s not
always easy to know what is really going on on the ground. And to my
mind, the really important questions here are about how information
was collected. Did the various agencies really coordinate and share
intelligence in the way that we had hoped, with the reforms that were
made after 9/11?
So there�s a big picture to be examined here. But we don�t have all of
the pieces, and I think it�s easy to try and jump to conclusions about
what might have happened here. It�s probably better to let the
relevant bodies do their work.

The Lebanese news organization Tayyar.org is reporting that the murdered
American ambassador to Libya, J. Christopher Stevens, was raped prior to
his killing September 11, 2012.
Tayyar.com also reported via Google translation from the original
Arabic, Ambassador Stevens:
“
"...was killed and representation of his body in a manner similar to
what happened with Gaddafi, such as murder."
According to the BBC, when the former Libyan strongman Colonel Moammar
Gaddafi was initially captured:
“
"Still images from an analysis of amateur video footage taken in the
moments after Col Gaddafi's capture appear to show him being sodomised
with a pole or knife."
The Washington Times has posted a video clip (left) reportedly
originating from the Libyan Free Press confirming the sodomization of
Ambassador Stevens prior to his murder.
As translated by The Washington Times, the Libyan reporter stated:
“
"Libya - USA Ambassador in Bengazi sodomized and killed by his own
al-Qaeda puppets."

Emails: White House told of militant claim two hours after Libya attack
(Reuters) - Officials at the White House and State Department were
advised two hours after attackers assaulted the U.S. diplomatic mission
in Benghazi, Libya, on September 11 that an Islamic militant group had
claimed credit for the attack, official emails show.
The emails, obtained by Reuters from government sources not connected
with U.S. spy agencies or the State Department and who requested
anonymity, specifically mention that the Libyan group called Ansar
al-Sharia had asserted responsibility for the attacks.
The brief emails also show how U.S. diplomats described the attack, even
as it was still under way, to Washington.
U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans were
killed in the Benghazi assault, which President Barack Obama and other
U.S. officials ultimately acknowledged was a "terrorist" attack carried
out by militants with suspected links to al Qaeda affiliates or
sympathizers.
Administration spokesmen, including White House spokesman Jay Carney,
citing an unclassified assessment prepared by the CIA, maintained for
days that the attacks likely were a spontaneous protest against an
anti-Muslim film.
