Putin in this case was telling the truth in 2013 about Syria:

"They lie beautifully, of course. I saw debates in Congress. A congressman asks Mr Kerry: 'Is al Qaeda there?' He says: 'No, I am telling you responsibly that it is not'," Putin said at a meeting of his human rights council in the Kremlin.

And now 2 years later our own internal govt assessment agrees with Putin:

Obama administration’s picture of Syrian moderates either dangerous naivete or an outright lie, according to government’s internal assessments

This is the first I heard of this. I just know I heard reports that maybe Benghazi happened because of an arms deal gone sour with the Turks over shipping Qaddafis surplus weapons to Syria but done in such a way as to not link the USA to it.

My take is that Benghazi was a deliberate hit on Stevens because he knew too much about both the Syrian arms pipeline and the fact that the US had illegally armed an AQ affiliate in Libya.
