Under what grounds are the videos “Classified?”

[usconservative]

A U.S. intelligence official said the first video shows no sign the assault arose -- as first thought -- out of a demonstration. But it also indicates the attack, though intentional, was not well planned.

So, does "not well planned" somehow make this something less than a TERRORIST attack? It only "counts" if it's deemed to be "well planned?!" Not sure who this "intelligence official" is, but they're not very smart for saying something so damn' stupid!

For some, winning an election would be more important than trying to save lives.

BULLSHIT!!

Did they see the Ambassador on any video? If so, when? If not, why not?

“But it took about 10 more days for the FBI to get its hands on video taken by security cameras at the consulate.”
************************
10 days? I do not believe that.

Hmmm? What about the annex, did it have cameras? I have read numerous reports that the US had people in there the “next day” to sweep delicate information. (and I am to believe they didn’t go over to the consulate....liars) OK, they had video from the annex by 9-12 or 13. Why is no one talking about the annex? Isn’t it just as important considering 2 CIA agents were murdered there as well!

There has been a lot of controversy about whether the Sept. 11 attack -- which killed four Americans, including the U.S. ambassador -- was planned by terrorists or the result of a mob angered by an internet movie ridiculing Islam.

David Martin has given the term 'obtuse' a whole new meaning.

Either that or CBS has decided to lower the bar on lying even further.

What about the video feeds from teh drone that was ovehead. Where are those?

Now, when they release the audio/video tapes of the 2way communication tapes with the infamous “situation room” state department, CIA, etc. then we will know what response the Seals received from their CIC.

U.S. officials say the four-hour lull in the fighting gave the attackers time to bring in more firepower in the form of mortars. They fired five rounds: the first two missed, while the next three hit.

A U.S. intelligence official said the first video shows no sign the assault arose -- as first thought -- out of a demonstration.

As first thought by whom? This is a load of baloney.

[blueunicorn6]

If it took them 10 days to “get their hands on the video”, then that means it wasn’t being sent real time to D.C. It also means the video didn’t come out with the Americans. The bad guys or “looters” had the video. And what would looters want a videotape for?

[blueunicorn6]

Now, if you’re the thugs, and you’ve got the Americans bottled up, why only drop five mortar rounds on them? Could be because they didn’t have more ammo, but I wouldn’t think so. Could be because they were afraid they might get hit from the air. Then did the whole attack stop, or just the mortars?

[Chickensoup]

what about the film in the drones? Must have been a lot of footage there?

[Just mythoughts]

When did the drone show up? It is my understanding the drone was not armed what was its purpose? Who controls the drones?
