The 2012 Benghazi attack was a coordinated
attack against two United States government facilities in Benghazi, Libya by
members of the militant group Ansar al-Sharia.
At 9:40 p.m., September 11, members of
Ansar al-Sharia attacked the American diplomatic compound in Benghazi resulting
in the deaths of U.S. Ambassador to Libya J. Christopher Stevens and U.S. Foreign ServiceInformation Management
Officer Sean Smith.[6][7]Stevens
was the first U.S. ambassador killed in the line of duty since 1979.[8]
At
around 4:00 a.m. on September 12, the group launched a mortar attack
against a CIA annex approximately one-mile
(1.6 km) away, killing CIA contractors Tyrone S. Woods and Glen Doherty[7][9][10]and
wounding ten others. At the behest of the CIA, top U.S. officials initially
described the attacks as the results of a spontaneous protest triggered by the
recently released anti-Muslim video, Innocence of Muslims.[11] Subsequent
investigations showed that the attack was premeditated – although rioters and
looters not originally part of the group may have joined in after the attacks
began.[12][13][14]
The National Review later
labeled the attack Battle of Benghazi,[15] a
name that has since been used by several media outlets to refer to the attacks.
There is no definitive evidence that al-Qaeda or any other international
terrorist organization participated in the Benghazi attack.[16][17][18] The
United States immediately increased security worldwide at diplomatic and
military facilities and began investigating the Benghazi attack.[19][20] Many
Libyans condemned the attacks. They staged public demonstrations condemning Ansar Al-Sharia, which had been formed
during the 2011 Libyan civil war in opposition to
leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi.[21][22][23]
Despite
persistent accusations against President Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Susan Rice, ten investigations —
six by Republican-controlled congressional committees — did not find that they
or any other high-ranking Obama administration officials had acted improperly.
Four career State Department officials
were criticized for denying requests for additional security at the facility
prior to the attack. Eric J. Boswell,
the Assistant Secretary of State for Diplomatic Security, resigned under
pressure, while three others were suspended.[24] In
her role as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton subsequently
took responsibility for the security lapses.[25]
