Exclusive: Dozens of CIA operatives on the ground during Benghazi attack
CNN has uncovered exclusive new information about what is allegedly happening at the CIA, in the wake of the deadly Benghazi terror attack.
Four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens, were killed in the assault by armed militants last September 11 in eastern Libya.
Sources now tell CNN dozens of people working for the CIA were on the ground that night, and that the agency is going to great lengths to make sure whatever it was doing, remains a secret.
CNN has learned the CIA is involved in what one source calls an unprecedented attempt to keep the spy agency's Benghazi secrets from ever leaking out.

The only thing that surprises me is that it came from CNN, which suggests this is a controlled leak because the truth is even worse than this suggests and they knew they couldn't keep a lid on it forever.

Yes probably. This has been the worst kept secret in DC for some time.
There's still more to this than just the gun running. If it's a CIA site smack in the middle of a civil war then it's safe to assume "enhanced interrogation" was also on the menu, along with drone usage, and other nasty stuff they don't want to talk about. Wouldn't surprise me if there was PRISM-type stuff in use as well. Was there ever a Congressional approval for any Libyan operations? Not that I recall...

"Since January, some CIA operatives involved in the agency's missions in Libya, have been subjected to frequent, even monthly polygraph examinations, according to a source with deep inside knowledge of the agency's workings.
The goal of the questioning, according to sources, is to find out if anyone is talking to the media or Congress."

This seems like kind of big deal, but it isn't getting much coverage. Jake Tapper is about as legit as they get. Weird.
Why is it weird? Obama administration is in bed with the media.
