Egypt intelligence warns (on Sept 4th) of attacks on Israel, US embassies September 13, 2012

Congress was warned about Libya last month

Libyan president: 'No doubt' attack 'preplanned' (Magariaf on Face the Nation) September 16, 2012

"The way these perpetrators acted and moved -- I think we, and they're choosing the specific date for this so-called demonstration, I think we have no, this leaves us with no doubt that this was pre-planned, determined," Magariaf said on CBS's "Face the Nation."

"And you believe that this was the work of Al Qaeda, and you believe that it was led by foreigners. Is that what you’re telling us?" CBS host Bob Schieffer asked.

"It was planned, definitely. It was planned by foreigners, by people who entered the country a few months ago. And they were planning this criminal act since their arrival," Magariaf said.

Magariaf said that more than 50 arrests have been made with some suspects from Mali and Algeria.

"They entered Libya from different directions. Some of them definitely from Mali and Algeria," Magariaf said.

Remember, Benghazi happened because of this Administration’s(Hillary included-—BIG TIME) failure to secure Libya’s weapons(Stingers, MANPODS, chemical) after Gaddafi’s fall. Those weapons are still NOT secured and probably scattered worldwide. No one in DC has addressed this.....not one.

For what it's worth, I posited the following theory to a friend a couple of months ago:

1. Stevens' visit to Benghazi wasn't known until the morning prior due to his having been on the local news, with him even keeping State in the dark as to his movements/schedule. As far as anyone knew, Stevens was in Tripoli until he made the local Benghazi TV news the morning of the 10th.

2. Once it was known that he was in Benghazi, the AQ forces that were to attack the Tripoli embassy simultaneous to the Cairo embassy began striking a deal with the Benghazi militia to both attack the Special Mission and maybe take the Ambassador hostage, him with a much reduced security contingent.

3. Reports were that an unknown person was taking photographs of the Mission after midnight on 9/11.

4. 13 hours later, the Benghazi mission was attacked.

5. Road travel time from Tripoli to Benghazi: Take a wild guess (Google Map it).

6. As far as the 'expert mortar fire': There's an App for that. They could have coordinated the entire attack while on the road with a laptop & a smart phone.

Maybe I'm blowing smoke...but no one else I've seen has ever explained why the horrible discrepancy between Cairo & Benghazi attack timelines for an organization that has consistently coordinated simultaneous attacks in the past. Just a theory to fit the facts that are known.
