Yep...sources are saying...... http://www.myfoxphilly.com/story/19592455/former-gitmo-detainee-may-have-led-libya-attack http://www.nydailynews.com/news/wor...attack-u-s-consulate-report-article-1.1163284 http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...icial-says-strike-in-libya-was-terror-attack/ Sufyan bin Qumu , a Libyan, may have been explicitly involved with the attack, his fighting group — Ansar al-Shariah — is suspected in taking part.
Everyone seems to agree with that except Teddy, but then he still thinks we received no warnings (as if 9/11 weren't enough), BO didn't say Egypt is not our ally, etc.
If EVERYONE agreed, why say "sources" instead of listing all those people that "agree"? See this is what you idiots buy from Fox. Play a drinking game sometime (you'll be falling down drunk in half an hour) where you get to drink every time someone on Fox uses the following phrases: "People are saying..." "Experts are saying..." "Sources are saying..." Name your damn sources Fox! There are too many idiots out there that believe everything you say word-for-word even in the total absence of sourcing.
How about your news (that you apparently do not listen to); http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/...late-terrorist-attack-benghazi_n_1897428.html http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/...late-terrorist-attack-benghazi_n_1897428.html And if you had read the news, in that report it says; That is THE administration itself. What else would you like to hear?
To add fuel to the fire, Jay Carney (you do know who he is, I hope) has just announced ".. it is self evident that it was terrorists .......". Hummm? You think maybe everyone was actually right?
View attachment 599 Carney says 'self evident' Benghazi attack was terrorism, despite claims it was spontaneous The White House, after insisting for more than a week that the deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi was a "spontaneous" act, conceded Thursday that it was "self evident" that it was an act of terror -- an admission that took eight days for any administration official to make. Earlier in the week, a top State Department spokeswoman declined to label the attack terrorism. Carney's comment, though, comes after the director of the National Counterterrorism Center testified on Capitol Hill that the strike was indeed a "terrorist attack." Intelligence sources also told Fox News on Wednesday they are convinced the deadly attack was directly tied to Al Qaeda, with a former Guantanamo detainee involved. The administration is still sticking by its claim that they don't have evidence the assault was pre-planned. But Carney for the first time Thursday called it terrorism -- while downplaying the fact that he was doing so. "It is, I think, self evident that what happened in Benghazi was a terrorist attack," Carney said. "Our embassy was attacked violently and the result was four deaths of American officials. That is self evident." On Monday, though, State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland would not go so far when asked whether the attack was terrorism. To that point, administration officials had said publicly they believed the "spontaneous" attack was triggered or inspired by protests in Egypt over an anti-Islam film. "I don't think we know enough. I don't think we know enough," Nuland said. "And we're going to continue to assess. She gave our preliminary assessment. We're going to have a full investigation now, and then we'll be in a better position to put labels on things, okay?" Matt Olsen, director of the NCTC, put a label on it during a Senate hearing Wednesday. "Yes, they were killed in the course of a terrorist attack on our embassy," Olsen said. Olsen echoed administration colleagues in saying U.S. officials have no specific intelligence about "significant advanced planning or coordination" for the attack. However, he was the first top administration official to call the strike an act of terrorism. Fox News, meanwhile, was told by intelligence sources that Sufyan Ben Qumu is thought to have been involved and even may have led the attack. Qumu, a Libyan, was released from the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in 2007 and transferred into Libyan custody on the condition he be kept in jail. He was released by the Qaddafi regime as part of its reconciliation effort with Islamists in 2008. His Guantanamo files also show he has ties to the financiers behind the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. The declassified files also point to ties with the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, a known Al Qaeda affiliate. Olson, repeating Wednesday that the FBI is handling the Benghazi investigation, also acknowledged the attack could lead back to Al Qaeda and its affiliates. "We are looking at indications that individuals involved in the attack may have had connections to Al Qaeda or Al Qaeda's affiliates, in particular Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb," he said at the Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing. Still, Olsen said "the facts that we have now indicate that this was an opportunistic attack on our embassy, the attack began and evolved and escalated over several hours," Olson said. Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, called Wednesday for an independent review of the attack. "A State Department Accountability Review Board to look into the Benghazi attack is not sufficient," Collins said. "Given the loss of the lives of four Americans who were serving their country and the serious questions that have been raised about the security at our Consulate in Benghazi, it is imperative that a non-political, no-holds-barred examination be conducted."

Oh DICK! Why join the losing side? I will be laughing my ass off at all of you on Nov 6th. In case you haven't noticed (probably because you are watching Fox) Romney/Ryan are tanking.
Oh! Just maybe because you grew a conscience and are tired of lying, but I guess that would be too much to ask. You asked for sources. You got sources. Now what smoke are you going to blow?
I know exactly who is saying what but what I can't figure out is why it matters if the attack was a planned act of foreign terrorism or whether it was just an out of control crowd? Does it really matter? Our ambassador and his staff lost their lives and all the Right-wing can do is try to score political points for their deaths. Wow! Just Wow!
You will have to ask Obama and company why they were lying. Maybe because BO promised a new and wonderful era in Mideast relations when/if he was elected and terrorism would be indicative of the failed mid-east policy, you think? But then just why were you joining the other liars?
Obama's immediate predecessor's foreign policy was "invade and conquer", and led us to where we are now.
Nice start but let me take it over the goal line.. And our ramping up Afghanistan and getting involved in Libya has kept us where we are now.
I love the way you guys love to say Obama promised this and Obama promised that but never seem to be able to produce the tape of him promising anything. Hum? And thanks for proving me right. The only reason you care whether this was a terrorist attack or just some random riot is so you, like Romne,y can try to score political points off of the death of Americans abroad. Pathetic!
Looks like Fox News was right about this being a terrorist attack last week when all other liberal news outlets and Obama was screaming it’s the movie. Fox News was correct and the Obama administration “shot from the hip”, and missed by the way.
