The Benghazi Whistle-Blowers
30th April 2013
Fox News has two related stories regarding State Department and CIA employees who reportedly have information they wish to offer about the Obama administration’s conduct in relation to the Benghazi attack. According to a lawyer for one of these whistle-blowers, the information pertains to (1) the State Department’s failure, prior to the attack, to provide proper security despite warnings that should have led to a security beef-up (2) the government’s response (or non-respone) during the attack, and (3) the Obama administration’s inaccurate and/or misleading statements about the attack after it had occurred.
Those of us who remember the media feeding-frenzy during the so-called ‘Iran-Contra scandal’ in Reagan’s second term are not surprised at all that this isn’t getting any attention from the Usual Suspects.
