Hillary Clinton ‘angrily’ defends handling of attack on US
consulate in Libya  London, Jan 24: US Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton has angrily defended her handling of the raid on
a US consulate in Libya, in back-to-back hearings on Capitol
Hill.  It was her last appearance at Congress as America’s top
diplomat.  She took responsibility for security failures that
led to attack on 11 September last year on the US consulate in
Benghazi that left the US envoy to Libya, Christopher Stevens,
and three other officials dead, but added that she had not seen
requests for more security beforehand, reports the BBC News.
Clinton also lashed out at a Wisconsin Republican who accused
the Obama administration of misleading the public.  Clinton
replied with a raised voice, saying that the fact remains that
four Americans died, and thumping the table four times, she
asked what difference does it make at this point, since the job
is now to figure out what happened and do everything possible to
prevent it from ever happening
