Capitol Hill testimony has made clear the original CIA’s talking points on the Libya terror attacks were altered before U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice used them for a public explanation about what happened, so the next step is learn who changed them and why, Republican Rep. Pete King said Saturday.
The New York congressman told Fox News the CIA intelligence reports made several stops – including the White House and the Defense and State departments. So finding out who removed the information that connected the Sept. 11 attacks on the U.S. Consulate and nearby CIA annex in Benghazi, Libya, with terror groups will be difficult.
“The CIA had it right, and those talking points were changed,” King said. “It’s not going to be easy.”
Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, appeared several days later on several Sunday talk shows, saying the attacks were “spontaneous” and appeared to be sparked by angry protests over an anti-Islamic film.
King, a member of the House Intelligence Committee, said the committee can call Rice to testify but others on Capitol Hill also must take up the effort.

Susan Rice, knew nothing, she is and was a pawn in Obama’s chess game. She only reported as did General Petraeus, “The party line” after the White House wrote the script which redacted any mention of radical Muslims. I actually feel sorry for her, since she only reported what she was told to report. At the same time, General Petraeus, knew the truth and on September 14, 2012, he blatantly lied to the American people, when he came out and said that the killings resulted from angry individuals that rose up because of the anti-Muslim video.
gabor, excuse me, this is the info I have from Sept 14,News reported this weekend that urgent requests from Benghazi for military help were denied on three separate occasions during the terrorist attacks which claimed four American lives. Nearly immediately, the CIA, led by General Petreaus denied the CIA had ever denied military help, which Bill Kristol notes, means only one thing – the denial had to come from the White House. President Obama declined to answer directly whether a CIA annex was denied urgent requests for military assistance during the deadly attacks last month on U.S. outposts in Libya.
and as far as Susan Rice,,,,what I have read,,,,On the eve of Ambassador Rices appearance on the Sunday morning talk shows on 12 September, the CIA sent the White House a set of talking points that included the truth about the role played by the terrorists in the catastrophe in Benghazi. SOMEONE IN THE WHITE HOUSE THEN EDITED these talking points in such a fashion as to eliminate this awkward factS, and Susan Rice vigorously peddled the party line.
There are only two possibilities. Either Rice lied or the White House lied to her. If the former is the case, she has blotted her copybook. If the latter is the case, she is damaged goods. No one wants a Secretary of State who does not have the confidence of the President.
It is also known that RIch is ANTI Isreal…………….
Next step for Obama is to terminate Susan Rice or blackmail her. It seems that he is well experienced in firing people when they are a threat. THE HAMMER IS COMING DOWN ON OBAMA !
Apparently there are quite a few people in Obama’s past who have “disappeared”. This info came out before the election but nobody who reelected him either knew of it or seemed to have care. There are too many people in this country who don’t care if the country is destroyed from within or want it.
I can only hope the real truth comes out, then we can impeach Obama for treason.
And if that happens then what? We have the Buffoon Biden? God help us!
Obama has surrounded himself with a nefarious band of henchmen in his administration, starting with Axelrod and going down his roster.
The bodies falling under Obama’s bus are starting to pile up. At some point, the bus won’t be able to move anymore. Or someone won’t want to be the next to be betrayed. That’s when it all falls apart.
What difference does it make why the embasy was attacked? So if it was a spontanous riot, it was ok to let those people die? Find out who, and we all know it was Obama, refused to call for help. Who told those Seals to “stand down.”
This whole thing is beyond stupid. So if a bunch of rioters are setting my house on fire I can’t call the police?
I don’t feel the lest bit sorry for Susan Rice, she a grown woman and knows right from wrong and nobody forced her to make the Sunday talk shows and lie and cover up. I’d like to see her resignation, congress should request her resignation.
I had an friend who often cheated on his wife. On more than one occasion she got suspicious and confronted him. He would always become indgnant that she could think such a thing and lay a guilt trip on her. Worked every time. Obama is a master of this tactic!
