THE MYSTERIOUS BENGHAZI PRESS RELEASE

Thirteen months after Benghazi a White House Press Release purported to have been released the day before the massacre has surfaced, reporting that a meeting of top military and national security officials has been held at the White House to discuss the issue of preparedness for any terrorist attack on 9/11.  The assumption that this document has been languishing in a pile of papers for thirteen months while the Massacre has been under such scrutiny stretches any premise of credibility to the limit.  

Why hasn't any official who attended such a meeting come forward to say so?  If such a meeting took place, why were military response forces so poorly positioned in case their intervention or reaction was necessary?  Why did General Carter Ham, the main guy in charge of military response at the time,  testify before Congress that no one from the White House contacted him to tighten security?  Word has it that the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Dempsey,  has said that any meetings or briefings during that period were "routine and casual." 

When are we ever going to get the true story and facts on the Benghazi Massacre, Mr. President?
