Hardly Mentioned: 8 Americans Wounded in Benghazi - Local Security Abandoned the Property
Maggie's Notebook ^ | 9-14-12 | Maggie@MaggiesNotebook

The UK Independent article has been quoted many times concerning the news that the US had a 48-hour warning before the Cairo Embassy and Benghazi Consulate attacks, but little has been known about another 8 Americans wounded, some of them Military, or that the 30+ force of Libyan guards on the property abandoned it, for the most part. Also, news that the Consulate had just had a “security health check,” by local sources, due to the coming day of 9/11, and apparently passed. A pressing question: how badly wounded are these 8 Americans. Other than emotional scars, will they bear life-alternating physical limitations? UPDATE: Some later reports say 14 were wounded, but I haven't found confirmation, or clarification that they were all Americans.

There seems to be a big discrepancy between reports of 30 Libyan guards, and the 3 that DAS Lamb apparently referred to. (I keep meaning to listen to that House hearing again, but just can’t come up with the time.) Shoot, I should still be in bed, now, as I was up late...
