Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Wednesday suggested a link between an al-Qaeda group in north Africa and the deadly attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, the New York Times reports:
She also said American intelligence and law enforcement agencies were working not only with Libya but also with other nations in the region to investigate the attack in Benghazi on Sept. 11. That indicated that the attack’s planning and execution might not have been the local, spontaneous eruption of violence that the administration had initially described.
