The relatives of the four Americans murdered by Ansar al-Sharia beg to differ.

Via CNS News:

“This is a circus,” former Rep. Jane Harman (D-Calif.) said of the Republicans’ call for a select committee to investigate the terror attacks in Benghazi and the misleading way the White House responsed to it, just two months before the 2012 presidential election.

Harmon, a former member of the House Intelligence Committee, told “Fox News Sunday” that the terror attacks that killed four Americans on Sept. 11, 2012 were an intelligence failure:

“But it wasn’t a conspiracy. And there aren’t aliens in Area 51 and Vince Foster wasn’t murdered. And it’s time to move on and focus on the real problems in Libya and other problems….”

Harmon said she met with “senior” intelligence officials the day after Susan Rice went on five Sunday talk shows and blamed the Benghazi attacks on protests:

“And I think there was legitimate confusion. I agree about the point that the video was in Egypt and nobody really knew what the facts were. I’m reading from the Ben Rhodes memo, which I’ve never seen before, and it said, ‘We’re not aware of any actionable intelligence indicating that an attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi was planned or imminent.’ And I think that was accurate.”
