Remembering the 2012 Benghazi attack that killed 4 Americans: 'The US will never forget this outrage'
Eight years ago four Americans were killed in the Libyan attack

By Marisa Schultz | Fox News

 Friday is not only a day for solemn memorials for the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks but it's also the somber remembrance of the Benghazi attack that killed four Americans.

On Sept. 11, 2012, a mob armed with guns and grenades launched a fiery nightlong attack on a U.S. diplomatic outpost and a CIA annex in Libya.

U.S. Ambassador to Libya J. Christopher Stevens, U.S. Foreign Service Information Management Officer Sean Smith, and CIA contractors and former Navy SEALs Glen “Bub” Doherty and Tyrone Woods were killed when the compound was ambushed in a coordinated attack by the Islamic militant group Ansar al-Sharia.

Far more than killing 4 Americans, it was an attack on US soil and murder of our official representative.  That is tantamount to declaring war with our country.

And it was never responded to by those in power at the time.

The type of people we elect to office must be of sufficient mettle to overcome the huge deficiencies of those who permitted Benghazi atrocities and the resistance to wholesale response to them.
