Read Enough On Benghazi? Okay, Then Read This

A new Senate report settles this, pointing out that FBI and CIA review of closed-circuit video at the mission a week after the Sept. 11, 2012, assaults "showed there were no protests prior to the attacks."
But the long-overdue report goes much further:
• Hillary Clinton's State Department didn't act on warnings of inadequate security at Benghazi.
• Local Libyan militias were used for security at a U.S. facility in an area where terrorist training was going on, and were AWOL when the attacks occurred.
V The U.S. military command in Africa didn't know the Benghazi CIA annex, where two U.S. security personnel were killed, was there — apparently because, like the information wall that kept the CIA and FBI from preventing the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, intelligence agencies kept vital information from the military.
• Similarly, the CIA's warnings of deteriorating security in the weeks before the attack somehow didn't reach the ears of the State Department.
• Our military wasn't prepared to defend the mission in an emergency.
• The CIA's elite operatives were not deployed at the high-risk facility.
The report concludes Benghazi could have been prevented.
