It is shocking there is such a lack of details. After all, the entire consulate staff could have murdered or captured, and this was a major attack by a well armed Al Qaeda group.

Somebody present at the time must know what went on. Was there a big gun battle? What happened in those 5 missing hours before the cavalry arrived? How did most escape with their lives? How were the other 3 murdered?

I’ll bet the other embassies in Libya know something. Maybe we should read the British papers, that is what I am going to do right now.

Given the release of these photos of the Ambassador's demise, it's clear there are other images with details of the attack recorded via cell phones which are visible in the photos.

I'm surprised that no apparent attempts have been made to ressurect these images, which no doubt have been posted and boasted about in Libyan/al qaeda forums on the web.
