White House officials consciously planned to spin the successful 2012 jihadi attack on the Benghazi diplomatic compound as an unplanned protest against an anti-Islam video, according to a new email found by the pubic-interest law firm Judicial Watch.
The Sept. 14 email by Ben Rhodes, President Obama’s chief foreign policy spokesman, described the public relations goals for a planned briefing of a top official — Susan Rice — who was scheduled to appear Sept. 16 on five Sunday talk-shows.
She was invited on the shows to explain the September 2012 attack, which killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans.
