(CT <http://conservativetribune.com/15-benghazi-witnesses-killed/> ) With
Congress officially in recess, Americans are anticipating the return of the
House to Washington and the resumption of Congressman Trey Gowdy’s committee
hearings on the September 11, 2012 terror attacks against a U.S. diplomatic
mission and nearby CIA annex in Benghazi, Libya
<http://conservativetribune.com/benghazi-truth-from-allen-west/> that killed
four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens.

A number of previous investigations have taken place, but
<http://conservativetribune.com/americans-support-benghazi-investigation/>
failed to uncover all of the relevant facts that Americans want and deserve
to know.  <http://conservativetribune.com/gowdy-may-justice-be-done/> Gowdy
has promised to uncover the truth surrounding the attacks and their
immediate aftermath, and the number and fame of some of the witnesses he may
call to do so could be remarkable.

Unfortunately, however, there are 15 witnesses that he might like to call
but cannot. All 15 of them have been killed in the two years since the
attacks under investigation.

Talking Points Memo cites a
<http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/report_15_killed_benghazi_investigati
on> delayed Senate report as saying that 15 “cooperating Libyan sources” are
no longer available to assist in the investigation because they are now
dead.

The report also says that it’s “unclear” whether those killings have
anything to do with the ongoing investigation by the United States.

Blaming “inadequate cooperation and a lack of capacity by foreign
governments,” the report says the FBI investigation is “slow and
insufficient” to bring the murderers to justice.

Perhaps more importantly, the report also concludes that the terrorist
attacks were “preventable,” and blames both the State Department and
America’s intelligence community for failing to adequately protect U.S.
personnel on the ground in Libya.

It’s unclear how much the 15 dead witnesses knew about the attacks, whether
Gowdy planned to call them, or what their unavailability means for his
investigation, but it certainly seems unlikely that their absence will
assist the committee’s efforts to uncover all the facts.

Also unclear is how many Libyan witnesses remain alive and available to
testify. If 15 witnesses out of, say, 300 have been killed over two years in
a nation wracked by civil war, that is sad, but not terribly surprising.

On the other hand, if the original total was more like 30, that’s quite a
different story.

Gowdy’s investigation to finally get to the bottom of the Benghazi scandal.
