Senior intelligence, State Department and FBI officials can expect to be grilled next week as congressional hearings resume on the terror attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya that killed four Americans.
Lawmakers want answers to many outstanding questions surrounding the September 11 armed assault on the diplomatic facility and a CIA annex in Benghazi.
Specifically, they want to know who was responsible, whether it was planned, the intelligence reporting on the threat to Libya prior the attack, and whether security was adequate.
The Senate Intelligence Committee will conduct a closed-door hearing on November 15. Scheduled witnesses include Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, CIA Director David Petraeus, Undersecretary of State Patrick Kennedy, FBI Deputy Director Sean Joyce and National Counterterrorism Center Director Matt Olsen.
Clapper, Petraeus and Olsen will also testify behind closed doors to the House Intelligence Committee on the same day.

We peon’s can speculate all we want. What those who watch what’s going on over a period of time know, every time there is a coincidence it’s not.
Testimony next week? Lying for Obama last week, an affair in the middle, Drone shot down(and covered up), It’s been a busy few weeks for the General.
My honest opinion is he may have melted down, a man like him has problems in La-La Land.
Yep. What a Co-inky-dink. Someone in the Obama administration knew about the affair and saved the info to axe him at the most convenient of times.
But he had the election to deflect the blame?
More complicated than your average who-dun-it.
What really pisses me off is this counter-intel op is being run against me and the like minded and we can’t do a F’kn’ thing about it.
So many questions... but we will find out about this one... even the press loves a sex scandal!
