And contrary to claims by some members of Congress, it was fueled in large part by anger at an American-made video denigrating Islam.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yes, we&#8217;re supposed to believe that Susan Rice and the Obama Administration were correct in their assessment that it was over some poorly directed and acted amateur video that caused the whole thing. You know, as if we&#8217;re stupid. Despite the fact that Libyan government told the Obama Administration that it was a coordinated attack, despite the fact that the late Ambassador Stevens warned the State Department that they were concerned about the threat from al Qaeda, despite the fact that al Qaeda has made a resurgence in Libya in the months following the attack. <\/p>\n<p>Apparently, the New York Times is trying to pull out an end of the year publicity stunt for the Obama Administration. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The attack also suggests that, as the threats from local militants around the region have multiplied, an intensive focus on combating Al Qaeda may distract from safeguarding American interests.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>WTF is that? Fighting al Qaeda for any reason is in American interests, whether it&#8217;s over Benghazi or over Mali, FFS.
