re: #18 Daniel Ballard

I would just note-Observing the date, the severity of the attack and listening to the President of Libya is not absorbing RW prop. I’m on record as skeptical of that video theory from day 1, pre-dating the noise and fury manufactured in the following days. The video is an obvious ad hoc opportunity for the attackers.

Of course. The attackers themselves said they were motivated by the drone attacks on Al Qaeda leaders in Yemen. There’s also a strong possibility that the timing of the attack was because the ambassador’s visit presented a high value target of opportunity. We’ll have to wait for more information but it’s likely the movie had very little to do with the attack or the timing.
