Bombshell: State Told Libya Security Officers to Stop Asking for More Support

Unbelievable. CBS aired this conversation between reporter Sharyl Attkisson and LtCol Andrew Wood tonight. Wood is the special forces operator who will testify on the Benghazi sacking before Congress Wednesday.

ATTKISSON: Do you feel like there was a disconnect between what you saw on the ground and what the State Dept. folks thought was going on in Libya?

WOOD: There was certainly no disconnect in our transfer of information to them. They were getting the information on the situation on the ground. We sent it up through State Dept. cables and I sent it up to the military side on the D.O.D. side. So, there was awareness of what the situation in Libya was about.

ATTKISSON: How did you get the word that your team would not be allowed to stay?

WOOD: We knew that was coming through the cables and the draft cables that were going back and forth. The requests were being modified to say ‘don’t even request for D.O.D. support’.

ATTKISSON: So State Dept. was telling the folks on the ground in Libya ‘don’t continue to ask for this help’?

WOOD: Correct.

This. Is. A. Cover-up.
