What really happened in Benghazi on September 11, 2012?

Turns out the New York Times writes an excellent piece on what happened in Benghazi, Libya on 9-11-2011 just days ago. It not only was the anniversary of the tragic day back on 9-11-2001 when the World Trade Center was attacked by terrorists and thousands of Americans were killed as terrorists hijacked American flights in the U.S. and crashed the hijacked planes into the World Trade Center in New York, but it was also the day Islamic terrorists decided it was time to demonstrate to Americans the terrorists lack of respect for human life and decency for American civilians including women and children.

The most interesting part of the report is that the New York Times reporter that wrote the latest story never spoke to any American witnesses on the ground in Libya that fought against the terrorists in Libya. Instead, this piece in the New York Times was fabulous in reporting on how Libyans in Libya decided to blame a video on the anniversary of the worst U.S. tragedy by terrorists on U.S. soil since the surprise attack against Americans by the Japanese at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii since December 7, 1941 during World War II.

Both Democrats and Republicans were astonished that the New York Times report did not interview any witnesses previously questioned by Congressional Intelligence Committees back after the assassination of Ambassador Christopher Stevens, and four Navy Seals who valiantly fought for over eight hours on September 11, 2011 and were killed by terrorists in Libya on the anniversary of the attack of the World Trade Center back on September 11, 2001, ten years previously. The New York Times would rather believe the testimony of anonymous Libyan citizens than the testimony of career American personnel with top security clearances who witnessed the attack on September 11, 2011, and fought there as well to protect American lives there on that night.

The New York Times writes an excellent piece on what they think happened that night in Libya. The reporter even traveled to Libya to interview Libyans who heard the President of the United States blame a video about the attack in Libya. The Libyans who respect the President and believe his every word seemed to want to back-up the President's story as opposed to the story given under sworn testimony by U.S. witnesses to Congress and Congressional Committees investigating the terrorist attack against the American consulate in Benghazi, Libya and assassination of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the four Navy Seals who tried to save and protect the United States Ambassador back in September of 2011.

It is so commendable that people without sworn testimony and had other interests besides American lives and interests in mind are believed by a professional U.S. reporter who never interviewed one person who witnessed the attack and gave sworn testimony to Congress back after the attack in 2011 and 2012.

It truly makes one wonder- what happened and why?

Journalism students are taught to question all their sources and find out the bias of a story.

What happened here and why? Every beginning journalism student is taught in their first journalism course 101 to question everything especially the bias and veracity of every witness.

Anybody want to buy a bridge in the Sahara desert?
