It makes me sick how obama and Hillary showed up when the bodies came home from Libya and said they were brave men who knew they were serving in a dangerous part of the world. If obama and Hillary knew it was so dangerous why did they not have any real security for this diplomat and his staff? They got these people killed with their naive approach to Alquiada especially on the anniversary of 9-11. This tragedy did not have to happen and these deaths are obama's fault. The obama media is ignoring this as much as possible because if it were covered as it should be it would sink obama's chance for reelection.
BENGHAZI, Libya (Reuters) - A lack of basic improvements to perimeter security at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi made it an easy target for the attackers who stormed it last week, killing a U.S. ambassador for the first time in 33 years. The Libyan owners of the main villa rented by the diplomats was surprised at how little, beyond some barbed wire and security cameras, they added to the walled residential compound, on a quiet street where volatile militiamen were free to roam.
Most striking was the absence of a second line of defense inside the main gate on to the street; that left the few guards in the compound little chance of holding off a crowd once the gate, which showed no sign it had been forced, was swung open.
U.S. officials have yet to give a full account of the night of September 11-12 and the sack of the compound that served as the consulate for Libya's second city and the east of the country.
