The Benghazi story will not die. It will probably survive until the presidential election, providing the former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton becomes the Democratic candidate for president of the United States. The Benghazi Committee now plans to question General, and at that time, CIA Director David Petraeus. He apparently shared all with his then mistress, Paula Broadwell, who revealed much of what happened during the attack in a speech before the University of Denver on Oct 26, two months after that attack.
Much of the confusion over the years since that event is the result of the CIA's attempt to keep their illegal black site activities in Benghazi secret since President Obama had, on becoming president, issued an executive order, #13491, which demanded that all CIA secret prisons be closed.
The CIA, and it appears the media as well, has successfully ignored Broadwell's lecture, altered the “talking points” they gave to Susan Rice, making her the scape-goat, and has portrayed itself as a neutral bystander who tried to save the Ambassador and his staff.
It would be interesting to sit in on the present interrogation of former CIA Director Petraeus, especially since he allegedly turned over his top secret files to his mistress, an act as allegedly illegal as that of Edward Snowden. But, unlike Snowden, the General's too big to jail.
