WASHINGTON The highest ranking American diplomat in Libya after the murder of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans last year testified before Congress on Wednesday that he was embarrassed when U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice wrongly blamed the attacks on an anti-Islamic video.
I was stunned. My jaw dropped. And I was embarrassed, Gregory Hicks, a foreign service officer and former deputy chief of mission/chargé daffairs in Libya, testified when asked to respond to Rices television appearances after the attack.
Here is the exchange between South Carolina Republican Rep. Trey Gowdy and Hicks about Susan Rices comments:
Gowdy: Fast forward, Mr. Hicks, to the Sunday talk shows with Ambassador Susan Rice. She blamed this attack on a video. In fact, she did it five different times. What is your reaction to that?
Hicks: I was stunned. My jaw dropped. And I was embarrassed.
Gowdy: Did she talk to you before she went on the five Sunday talk shows?
Hicks: No, sir.
Gowdy: You were the highest ranking official in Libya at the time, correct?
Hicks: Yes.
Gowdy: And she did not bother to have a conversation with you before she went on national television?
Hicks: No, sir.
