Clinton denies lying to Benghazi victims families

Last edited Thu Mar 10, 2016, 06:48 PM - Edit history (1)

Hillary Clinton pushed back against accusations that she lied to the families of victims of the 2012 Benghazi terror attacks after being confronted by a video of a family member making that accusation.
...

"At the time I emailed with my daughter, a terrorist group had taken credit for our attacks on Benghazi. Within 16, 18 hours, they rescinded taking credit," she said.

"The video did play a role; we have captured one of the lead terrorists, and he admits that it was both a terrorist attack and it was influenced by the video. This was fog of war. This was complicated."

Clinton does have a lot of blame for the whole war in Libya so was Benghazi part of Libya is the question.

She called it a terrorist attack and yes the video did play into the motivation. The very group who's leader carried out the attack said as much in their own "magazine" or whatever it is.
