in that national review article by David French is also accurate:
'The Benghazi controversy is the story of 3 great failures - the failure to either fortify or evacuate Benghazi when threats increased, the failure to adequately protect and support American personnel during the attack itself, and the repeated lies told the American public after the attack to minimize both the nature of the jihadist threat and the scale of the administration’s incompetence. The film won’t resolve complex political arguments over individual fault, but (if it does justice to the book — I’m seeing it tonight) it will show the deadly consequences of ideologically-motivated blindness and wishful thinking. Americans fought like lions against overwhelming odds. Their valor was awe-inspiring, but it never should have been necessary.
