‘We Didn’t Lose A Single Person In Libya' Says Hillary Clinton

Hillary Clinton appeared to forget the killing of four US citizens during an attack on the US diplomatic mission in Benghazi when she insisted that “we did not lose a single person in Libya”.

Clinton made the comment while defending her push for regime change in the war-torn North African nation at an Illinois town hall event on Monday.

Talk about having a selective memory…..

Could this be an early sign of dementia or has Mrs Clinton spent so much of her life lying that she now finds it hard to distinguish what is real from what is fantasy?

RT reports:

Clinton was US Secretary of State at the time of the Libyan intervention and the attack on the Benghazi site.

On the night of September 11, 2012, Islamic militants attacked the US diplomatic compound in Benghazi, killing Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other US citizens. It emerged that the compound had inadequate security in place, and staff had raised concerns about the issue prior to the attack.

It was the first time since the murder of the then-US Ambassador to Afghanistan in 1979 that a US ambassador was killed in the line of duty. The Benghazi killings sparked an FBI investigation and a Congressional inquiry at which Clinton claimed responsibility for the tragedy.

Speaking at a Democratic town hall event Monday, Clinton defended US support for the NATO-led intervention in Libya in March 2011.

“Libya was a different kind of calculation and we didn’t lose a single person,” she insisted.

“We didn’t have a problem in supporting our European and Arab allies in working with NATO, and now we’ve got to support the Libyan people.”

Clinton then proceeded to overlook the hundreds of thousands of Libyan citizens who fled the violence.

“Is Libya perfect? It isn’t,” Clinton conceded.

“Changing from a dictator who has hollowed out your country to something resembling a functioning state and hopefully even more of a democratic one doesn’t happen overnight,” Clinton said.

“And we’ve got to continue to support the Libyan people to give them a chance, otherwise you see what’s happening in Syria with the consequences of millions of people flooding out of Syria, with more than 250,000 people killed, with terrorist groups like ISIS taking up huge swath of territory, as big as some of the states in that area.”
