Mike Morell says Islamist removed from Benghazi talking points because it might have been ‘other’ terrorists

Corrupt Obama lacky Mike Morell admitted during his Congressional hearing that he removed the term ‘Islamist’ from the Benghazi talking points before Susan Rice appeared on the Sunday News shows to claim Benghazi was trigger by a Youtube video. Morell claims he removed ‘Islamist’ becauses the CIA wasn’t sure ‘what kind of terrorists‘ actually killed four Americans in Benghazi. Gee, I don’t know. Benghazi Libya, what other kind of terrorists could there have been? Oh wait, this regime considers tea party members ‘terrorists’ so maybe Morell thought it was tea parties who took over the Benghazi consulate building .

“I believe that the White House wanted America to believe Al Qaeda to be on the run, and thus they needed the attacks to be in response to an anti-Islamic video. And so the White House used your talking points to say so.”

Morell, though, said nobody at the CIA “deliberately misled” Congress about the attack.

“We did not deliberately downplay the role of terrorists in the Benghazi attack,” he testified before the House Intelligence Committee, in a rare open session.

He said the suggestion that he made edits for the political benefit of the administration is “false.” And he explained that, from the start, he considered the attack to have been both a protest and a terrorist attack.
