Glossing over the 2012 terrorist attack in Benghazi that claimed the lives of four U.S. diplomats, Hillary Clinton on Wednesday night claimed that we did not lose a single American due to military intervention in Libya.
Speaking at a veterans forum hosted by NBC News, the former secretary of state said she stands by the 2011 decision to take action in Libya and that America suffered no casualties.

I appreciate your response. I know the contractors who make those $half billion dollar missiles we generously lobbed all over Tripoli, Benghazi and other developed parts of Libya were probably happy to build some more. But unless I know they specifically lobbied for that action I won’t criticize them for making money on their product.
She’s right.
We didn’t lose a SINGLE American....we lost a number of fine Americans.
She parses words just like her so-called husband.
This was one thing that REALLY stood out last night...she was bragging about it...and she had not a thought or care for the four who died...who she probably caused their deaths.
Notice how Hillary, when explaining the emails and security, always parses her wording that none of the ones that were sent to her had the headings.
Well, it doesnt matter.
1st, it would be illegal to remove the heading and those people who did her bidding would be subject to prosecution.
2nd, removing the heading doe not ake them unclassified, it just takes off the heading. The material remains classified.
Hillary dealt with highly classified material all the time on an unsecured server, and did it over open devices of all types...and did it right within the nations of soe of our most ardent adversaries.
They have everything she left open like that.
She is a liar, she is a treacherous severe security liability to this nation, her security issues I am almost sure helped lead to the deaths of those in Benghazi because the information about Ambassadors Stevens itinerary was in her emails...and she should be in prison.
I suspect her rational is in the wording in the article, “we did not lose a single American due to military intervention in Libya.” She did NOT say “we didn’t lose a single life inLibya.” The military assistance, mostly air craft action, was ended with the death of Ghadaffi and the standing down of our military forces as the Libyans started taking over governmental responsibilities. Our brave Ambassador (who it has been said was there earlier on a CIA or other covert mission) knew the dangers very well. He was in Benghazi to assess the safety and needs of our diplomatic compound there, he was not there on a military intervention. Unfortunately there are also tragic killings in diplomatic settings under Republican presidents which Dems could trot out if they get pixxed enough.
