They say Trump is an idiot?
Conversely, Obama gave the terrorist state of Iran billions of dollars, did nothing to stop the genocide in Syria, and then took out Gaddafi only to have his ambassador and staff murdered by terrorists as ISIS moved in.
This people say is brilliant and noteworthy and deserving of a Nobel Peace Prize.

The money that was given to Iran was money from their assets that were frozen when the sanctions were imposed, and when they were lifted, we had to return the frozen money.
We can't do anything about Syria without risking a war with Russia. Putin backs Assad.
And, we didn't take out Gaddafi, his own people did when they revolted.
If you have questions about Benghazi, I recommend watching the movie "13 Hours", about the attack. One of the main reasons that the ambassador died is because he sent his body guards back to the secret CIA station a couple of miles away. When the attack started, his bodyguards asked the CIA station chief to let them go, but the station chief refused to let them go after him for around two hours after the attack started. If they had been allowed to go as soon as the attack started, the ambassador would probably be alive.
Senate Report say it was only a 20 -25 minutes delay while the station chief tried to secure more men and equipment.

The House report says they arrived at the Consulate Building within 42 minutes.

Actually, on page 8 of your second link, it says that they don't know exactly when they got there, but because there was resistance and they needed to get weapons, it took them 42 min. to make it to the compound AFTER the CIA station chief let them go.
If it is all that cut and dry, why did Hillary lie by blaming Youtube videos.
The fact she lied about it has been proven.
