I sorta like the exchange with Trey Gowdy asking why the request for ‘machine guns’ was denied. That would be at 2:54.
“Do you know who denied the request for machine guns and why”

Also Jim Jordan was on the posted video (around one hour 41:30 minutes to one hour 52:40 minutes) asks the question, why were we in Libya?
During that Q & A:
Starr had identified that the facility in Benghazi had a special name that no other state dept facility has.
Starr evades and refers Jordan to ARB report stating he was not there at the time.

...and his grilling of witness Starr toward the end - up until that point Starr had been surly and whining, complaining that his Department had made lots of changes and almost saying he was being picked on - once Gowdy started in on him it became “yes, sir” and “no, sir” and sure I’ll name names, sir - great to see someone who knows what he’s doing take on the questioning.....

Other than embarrassing a few people, just what do these hearings accomplish? That's what I'm afraid of, they will refuse to recognize and stumble across treason all along the hearings and refuse to address it. This whole thing was orchestrated from the WH through the State Dept.

Blow-by-Blow: How Obama & Hillary Left Americans to Die "Nordstrom further testified in writing that Hillary Clinton waived security requirements for the Benghazi consulate despite high and critical threat levels in the six categories of security standards established under the Overseas Security Policy Board and the Secure Embassy Construction and Counterterrorism Act of 1999. The waiver can only be authorized by the Secretary of State, who cannot delegate that responsibility to someone else. If the Secretary of State did not waive these requirements, who did so by ordering occupancy of the facilities in Benghazi and Tripoli? Nordstrom wrote."

Why did Hillary and Obama feel the need to overthrow the government of Libya? I thought Liberals like them hated imperialism, but, they take the lead in overthrowing the government of Libya? It doesn’t add up. They wanted something besides a change of government in Libya.
Has anybody seen Qadaffi’s gold?

My pleasure. I hope Gowdy’s committee digs into Nordstrum’s observations.

Mrs. Roby Q & A (At 2 hours 6 min 56 seconds to 2:18:08) reveals that to this day (according to state dept) local security contractors are not vetted and fail to provide documentation.

Benghazi was never a “consulate”. The correct name can be several things, “CIA station” was the most commonly used. The night of the attack, there was a Turkish official there meeting with the Ambassador. We were arranging for the transfer of guns to Syrian rebels through Turkey. Right after the Turkish official left the “station”, the attack began.
That coincidence seems to have eluded everybody. Why did the attack not happen earlier while the Turkish official was still there ..??
However, it was also noted that several “terror groups” had taken up residence in Libya, so the terrorists were not far away. It was easy for them to stage this attack.
The State Department had hired “locals” to “protect” the compound; many of whom were loosely associated with the terror groups living in the Benghazi area. That fact alone is so idiotic .. it begs to consider Hillary Clinton hated our military so much (which she proved when she was First Lady and she would not allow ANY UNIFORMED person around her), Hillary was willing to sacrifice the Ambassador’s life .. to save a few bucks .. probably for all of her junkets around the world.
