We have lots of intelligence about possible attacks against our facilities all of time, but most of them never pan out. It is whether actionable intelligence was available that is the question. Someone in Washington viewed our presence in Benghazi to be more critical than the risk involved—a callous decision that demands accountability.

I get your point but to me with all the weapons stored and transferred all over the mid-east done directly by Stevens he was sort of a rock star or a pariah one, in the state dept. Either they would help this guy immediately or ignore the hell out of him.

Looks like they ignored the hell out of him.

One would think that with all he had going on he would get any request he made authorized in a heartbeat. Why were they questioning requests made by a State Dept. rockstar unless he had become a liability.

Let's face it Benghazi was not your typical State dept. sub station.
