The CIA knew it right away.
Do you follow the news at all?
No Rochard, they didn't tell anyone what they knew to be true. They LIED and said it was a video.
This is me pointing at a blue sky and saying "the sky is blue" ... and you looking up and claiming it's red.  |
Robbie, the moment they killed people it was a terrorist attack. The press was calling it a terrorist attack as soon as they started reporting it. But in the first twenty-four and even forty-eight hours, we had no idea if there was a protest or not. You are trying to say they lied, and I am telling you in the first forty-eight hours they had no idea what had really happened. Again, little law enforcement, and a shaky government. The White House couldn't exactly pick up the phone and ask questions; There was no one there to answer if there was most likely the phones wasn't working.
President Obama himself said in a interview the day after the attack that they are trying not to call it a terrorist attack. It's very, very simple - The President didn't want to get the American public whipped up into a frenzy that would demand the United States put boots on the ground into yet another war we don't need to be in.
No one lied about anything. They had very limited information in the first few days. They slowly gave out information once the facts became clear AND they could verify them, which took weeks if not months.
