SNOPES.COM - FACT CHECK:
- LINK: Benghazi Timeline

"But, at this point, we do know that Obama and others in the administration were quick to cite the anti-Muslim video as the underlying cause for the attack in Benghazi that killed four U.S. diplomats, including U.S. Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens. And they were slow to acknowledge it was a premeditated terrorist attack, and they downplayed reports that it might have been."


Sept. 11: The Attack

2:30 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (8:30 p.m. Benghazi time): U.S. Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens steps outside the consulate to say goodbye to a Turkish diplomat. There are no protesters at this time. (“Everything is calm at 8:30,” a State Department official would later say at an Oct. 9 background briefing for reporters. “There’s nothing unusual. There has been nothing unusual during the day at all outside.”)

3 p.m.: Ambassador Stevens retires to his bedroom for the evening. (See Oct. 9 briefing.)

Approximately 3:40 p.m. A security agent at the Benghazi compound hears “loud noises” coming from the front gate and “gunfire and an explosion.” A senior State Department official at the Oct. 9 briefing says that “the camera on the main gate reveals a large number of people – a large number of men, armed men, flowing into the compound.”

About 4 p.m.: This is the approximate time of attack that was given to reporters at a Sept. 12 State Department background briefing. An administration official identified only as “senior administration official one” provides an official timeline of events at the consulate, but only from the time of the attack — not prior to the attack. The official says, “The compound where our office is in Benghazi began taking fire from unidentified Libyan extremists.” (Six of the next seven entries in this timeline — through 8:30 p.m. EDT — all come from the Sept. 12 briefing. The exception being the 6:07 p.m. entry, which comes from Reuters.)

About 4:15 p.m.: “The attackers gained access to the compound and began firing into the main building, setting it on fire. The Libyan guard force and our mission security personnel responded. At that time, there were three people inside the building: Ambassador Stevens, one of our regional security officers, and Information Management Officer Sean Smith.”

Between 4:15 p.m.-4:45 p.m.: Sean Smith is found dead.

About 4:45 p.m.: “U.S. security personnel assigned to the mission annex tried to regain the main building, but that group also took heavy fire and had to return to the mission annex.”

About 5:20 p.m.: “U.S. and Libyan security personnel … regain the main building and they were able to secure it.”

Around 6 p.m.: “The mission annex then came under fire itself at around 6 o’clock in the evening our time, and that continued for about two hours. It was during that time that two additional U.S. personnel were killed and two more were wounded during that ongoing attack.”

6:07 p.m.: The State Department’s Operations Center sends an email to the White House, Pentagon, FBI and other government agencies that said Ansar al-Sharia has claimed credit for the attack on its Facebook and Twitter accounts. (The existence of the email was not disclosed until Reuters reported it on Oct. 24.)

About 8:30 p.m.: “Libyan security forces were able to assist us in regaining control of the situation. At some point in all of this – and frankly, we do not know when – we believe that Ambassador Stevens got out of the building and was taken to a hospital in Benghazi. We do not have any information what his condition was at that time. His body was later returned to U.S. personnel at the Benghazi airport.”

About 10:00 p.m.: Secretary of State Hillary Clinton issues a statement confirming that one State official was killed in an attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi. Her statement, which MSNBC posted at 10:32 p.m., made reference to the anti-Muslim video.

-- Clinton: Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. Our commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear: There is never any justification for violent acts of this kind.

11:12 p.m.: Clinton sends an email to her daughter, Chelsea, that reads: “Two of our officers were killed in Benghazi by an al Qaeda-like group: The Ambassador, whom I handpicked and a young communications officer on temporary duty w a wife and two young children. Very hard day and I fear more of the same tomorrow.” (The email was discovered in 2015 by the House Select Committee on Benghazi. It is written to “Diane Reynolds,” which was Chelsea Clinton’s alias.)

Sept.12: Obama Labels Attack ‘Act of Terror,’ Not ‘Terrorism’

Sept. 12: Clinton issues a statement confirming that four U.S. officials, not one, had been killed. She called it a “violent attack.”

Clinton: All the Americans we lost in yesterday’s attacks made the ultimate sacrifice. We condemn this vicious and violent attack that took their lives, which they had committed to helping the Libyan people reach for a better future.

-- Sept. 12: Clinton delivers a speech at the State Department to condemn the attack in Benghazi and to praise the victims as “heroes.” She again makes reference to the anti-Muslim video in similar language.

-- Clinton: (AGAIN:) Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior, along with the protest that took place at our Embassy in Cairo yesterday, as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. America’s commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear — there is no justification for this, none.


Oct. 9: ‘Everything Calm’ Prior to Benghazi Attack, No Protests

Oct. 9: At a background briefing, senior state department officials reveal there were no protests prior to the terrorist attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi — contrary to what administration officials have been saying for weeks.
-- The STATE DEPARTMENT, throwing Hillary under the proverbial bus, admits there was NEVER any protest....yet in the committee hearing last week Hillary CONTINUED to profess her belief that - despite all the evidence and testimony to the contrary - that the attack was still do in part to a non-existent protest!


END OF STORY...END OF DISCUSSION - FACT-CHECKED - THERE WAS NO PROTEST....HILLARY LIED...SHE GOT CAUGHT LYING...PROVEN, DOCUMENTED, UNDENIABLE!

...yet watch the die-hard, delusional Hillary Liberal apologists STILL deny it and fight it anyway....
Thanks but it doesnt matter. We have posted videos of Hillary claiming it was spontaneous and the leftards here respond with "where does she say that?" It is total and complete denial and nothing will change that.

Of course it matters. Fact is in the videos you post she was talking about the riots and protests over the video that were springing up all over the Muslim world.
 
At no time does she ever say that the attack in Benghazi is a result of a video.

That's OK if the video that was posted doesn't show Hillary saying it, Snopes.Com already settled the argument, pointing out not only exactly what time she said it but the exact words she used to claim it.

Settled. Proven. Documented. Recorded. Undeniable. FACT. Busted! END of DEBATE. Next....

So full of shit.The quotes snopes used are from the videos moron.

When did she communicate that the Benghazi attack was about a video?

From Sept 12th:

Video: Clinton’s Statement on Libya

Sept 13th:



Sept 14th:




Let's not forget that there were multiple attacks and protests all over the Muslim world for quite a while due to that video.

Your dreaming, or living in this right wing propaganda bubble....

They provided no proof, what so ever that she lied about the attack, none, zero, zip.

A terrorist wannabe al-Qaeda group took credit for the attack, she talked to Chelsea, the following day, this terrorist group reneged, retracted their responsibility for the attack....the admin also received 21 action reports from various Intelligence agencies that attributed the incident to the video.

It was changing by the minute, fluid.....


No one lied.

he hasn't had a rational thought in years
LOL PLease show where she retracted her view it was a terrorist attack. She knew it was. SHe had been told by the Libyans and the Egyptians it was.
Making shit up is what gets you ignored.

Please show us where she said otherwise.
Please show us where she said the attack in Benghazi was a result of a video.
been done many times uncluding videos.

No. You attributed a quote to Hillary then as
" proof " you posted a video where she doesn't say at all what you quoted. Retarded.
At no time does she ever say that the attack in Benghazi is a result of a video.
Yeah she did. It's well known she blamed the video. If you cant accept a well known truth then there is no argument. You are merely arguing for the sake of it.
 
THANK YOU, HS for proving my point about Liberals, who are in such denial they are even willing to call Fact Check orgs like Snopes 'liars' when they prove Hillary LIED and blamed a video in public but told her own daughter and the Turkish PM it was a terrorist attack...and even declared last week that she STILLK thinks the attack was due to a non-existent protest. I don't know who is more delusional, Hillary or her supporters!

:lmao:

Point to her attributing the Benghazi attacks to the video in the videos I linked. You morons are reduced to blatant, bald faced lies in order to maintain the narrative.
 
Let's not forget that there were multiple attacks and protests all over the Muslim world for quite a while due to that video.

20 US Embassies were simultaneously attacked on 9/11/12, 4 overrun. The US, including the state department and Obama administration had received warnings this would happen, as evidence has shown (reportedly also by Snopes.com). It wasn't over a stupid video - just like with the Benghazi compound video footage, these other embassies showed NO EVIDENCE to support 'protests' but showed instead, like Benghazi, they were terrorist attacks!

It is pathetic how you Liberals are reaching all the way up your arse and pulling out these excuses and lies to try to cover Obama's and Hillary's lies!

F* your video links, HS! SNOPES.com, a fact check site, just burned YOUR and every other Liberal argument - including and most importantly Hillary's, down to the ground. Give it up. It has been proven. Verified. Documented. Recorded. It's OVER! Really, stop - you're embarrassing yourself!

You posted the video. This isnt even a question.
Do you want to debate whether Hillary was really SecState at the time? Do you have proof she was SecState when this happened? Post it.

It was perfectly reasonable to temporarily speculate that the attacks were incited by the video.

Except she knew within minutes the video had nothing to do with it. That's why she wrote to Chelsea and the Egyptians as she did.
Or did you miss the first 50 times we posted that part?

She could NOT have possibly known for certain that Benghazi was attacked by people with no connection to the video, nor do we know that now.
 
You're saying those other 20 embassy attacks were NOT terrorism?

No, I am disagreeing with HS that they were all 'protests' over that 1 faux video! Of course they were terrorist attacks, ones the Obama administration had warnings about well before 9/11/12.

and? when she referred to the video she did not BLAME the video for the benghazi attack...

"Judicial Watch: Defense, State Department Documents Reveal Obama Administration Knew that al Qaeda Terrorists Had Planned Benghazi Attack 10 Days in Advance"
- LINK: JW: Obama Admin Knew About Benghazi Before It Happened

"Hillary got warning Benghazi attack was premeditated terrorism"
- LINK: http://nypost.com/2015/05/21/hillary-got-warning-benghazi-attack-was-premeditated-terrorism/


The CIA testified that the Mayor of Benghazi had warned an Al Qaeda leader had called for Stevens' assassination on 9/11/12 as retaliation for an Al Qaeda leader from Benghazi having been killed in a drone strike months earlier. They pointed out that the 2 terrorist attacks on the compound weeks earlier were 'probes' testing out the compound's defenses and testing out the information being fed to them by inside compound guards. (Testimony revealed several Libyan guards were seen taking photos of the kerosene tanks - where the comp9und fires were started - and other pictures in the compound weeks earlier.

...and the 'hits' - TRUTH - just keep on coming!

GIVE IT UP!
- Hillary's own e-mails show after blaming the 'protest' that never was she told her own daughter and the PM of Turkey she / they KNEW it was a terrorist attack.
- Since the attack both the State Department and the CIA have both proven and declared there NEVER was a protest, but that did not stop Hillary from saying just LAST WEEK that she STILL believes it was in part a protest over a video!
- Snopes.com has nailed her ass to the wall, proving beyond the shadow of a doubt she LIED!

IT'S OVER! PROVEN! DOCUMENTED! RECORDED! Like I told HS, just STOP already...you're just embarrassing yourself!
 
and? when she referred to the video she did not BLAME the video for the benghazi attack...

GOOD LORD! She cited the video, she declared that violence over the video was not justification enough for the violence that occurred! You are pulling stuff out of your ass, and I am even embarrassed for you! It's over man! It's spelled out by SNOPES - a fact-check site, who came to the conclusion that HILLARY LIED, that she DID blame the video/a protest!

"Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. Our commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear: There is never any justification for violent acts of this kind."

As I predicted, Libs just won't let go. It would be funny as hell if it wasn't so pathetic....
