Clinton: "This Was an Attack by a Small and Savage Group"

(State Department) Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, speaking Wednesday on the deaths of American personnel in Benghazi, Libya, said: "This was an attack by a small and savage group - not the people or Government of Libya....Libyans stood and fought to defend our post. Some were wounded. Libyans...helped rescue and lead other Americans to safety." "Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior, along with the protest that took place at our Embassy in Cairo yesterday, as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet....There is no justification for this, none. Violence like this is no way to honor religion or faith."
