Former ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice said today she does not regret her initial statements on the situation in Benghazi, when she appeared on the Sunday political shows and said the violence in Benghazi was “spontaneous” and caused by an anti-Muslim video.
“What I said to you that morning, and what I did every day since, was to share the best information that we had at the time,” Rice, who is now National Security Advisor, said on NBC’s Meet the Press today.
“That information turned out, in some respects, not to be 100 percent correct,” Rice conceded. “But the notion that somehow I or anybody else in the administration misled the American people is patently false. And I think that that’s been amply demonstrated.”
Heritage’s Helle Dale argued otherwise in an article last month, saying that recently-unclassified testimony contradicted Rice and others. Dale wrote:
