President Barack Obama blamed the terror attack three months ago in Benghazi, Libya on “sloppiness,” and said “we have some very good leads” after the long investigation:

“When you read the report, and it confirms what we had already seen based on some of our internal reviews, there was just some sloppiness, not intentional, in terms of how we secure embassies in areas where you essentially don’t have governments that have a lot of capacity to protect those embassies,” said Obama this morning on NBC. “So we’re doing a thorough renew. not only will we implement all the recommendations that were made, but we’ll try to do more than that. You know, with respect to who carried it out, that’s an ongoing investigation. The FBI has sent individuals to Libya repeatedly. We have some very good leads.”

Four Americans, including an ambassador were murdered in the 9/11 terror attack earlier this year.
