As the crisis at the Benghazi was happening on September 11, the State Department and the White House knew that a terrorist group with links to Al Qaeda was already taking responsibility for the attack. Despite that, look what White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said 7 days later (below emailed to me by FNC James Rosen.)
——
CARNEY: [September 18] I’m saying that based on information that we – our initial information, and that includes all information — we saw no evidence to back up claims by others that this was a preplanned or premeditated attack; that we saw evidence that it was sparked by the reaction to this video. And that is what we know thus far based on the evidence, concrete evidence – not supposition — concrete evidence that we have thus far.
