WASHINGTON (AP) Hillary Rodham Clinton says many unanswered questions remain about the deadly 2012 terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, even as U.S. authorities have captured their first suspect in the case.
Clinton, speaking in separate interviews with CNN and Fox News, said Tuesday she was still seeking information on the attacks that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans and led to numerous investigations. But she defended the Obama administration's response to the incident and said the State Department tried to respond to the fast-moving attacks that have become a focal point of criticism from Republicans.
"We want to know who was behind it, what the motivation of the leaders and the attackers happened to be. There are still some unanswered questions," Clinton said on CNN. "It was, after all, the fog of war."
The potential 2016 Democratic presidential candidate addressed the Benghazi investigation and a range of issues in the two interviews as part of a promotional tour for her new book, "Hard Choices," about her four years as President Barack Obama's secretary of state.

(113,102 posts)when was the last time the CIA openly discussed every aspect of a covert operation with the State Dept they were using as cover? Or discussed every detail of an operation with Congress? Or opened up their operations to the scrutiny of the American people?
Amazing how RW political commentators and GOP political opportunists have spun this event into everyone's fault and responsibility but Gen. Petraeus who was the actual person in charge and directing the dozens of CIA operatives who were on the ground there before, during, and after the attack. Including those 4 men who died.
