An investigate report of the attack pointed the finger at the Department of Foreign Affairs, spearheaded by Mrs Clinton, stating the department had failed to provide adequate security at the consulate in Benghazi.
Mrs Clinton has already announced she’ll be stepping down from her function as Secretary of State but until she does, improving US international security for US diplomats abroad, is top on the agenda.
Hillary Clinton stated she will implement all security recommendation put forth in the report. She denied however that she had said that the Benghazi attack was merely revenge by Islam extremists over a anti-Muslim video.
Mrs Clinton made it clear to those present at the hearing that just one day after the attack she announced it was a terrorist based attack.
Mrs Clinton is taking an hiatus from politics for a while. Stipulations are she’s preparing herself for the 2016 US presidency.
President Barack Obama has nominated John Kerry as the new US Secretary of State.
