Benghazi’s Real Scandal: Why Is the Libyan Investigation Such a Mess?
For two months now, politicians in Washington have argued furiously over who is to blame for the attack against the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, which killed the ambassador and three other Americans. And while that argument is sure to rage again on Thursday and Friday during a closed-door hearing of the Senate Select Intelligence Committee, there is another controversy roiling about that disastrous assault: In Benghazi itself. There, Libyans are questioning why officials have failed to place a single suspect in custody or, for that matter, to conduct many probing interrogations, despite the attack’s damaging impact on Libya’s international standing. “There is no serious investigation being undertaken by the Libyan authorities,” Rami el-Obeidi, the former intelligence chief for the Libyan rebels’ National Transitional Council, told TIME by phone on Wednesday. He says that “the Libyan authorities are unwilling to conduct a proper
investigation into the terrorist attack, as this would expose them to retaliation from extremist militias.”

Remember when Nixon was re-elected in 1972 and then a year later came watergate and then Democrats try to impeach him. You watch Democrats will protect Obama on this
