A car bomb exploded outside a Foreign Ministry building in the Libyan city of Benghazi Wednesday, state media said, on the anniversary of an assault on the U.S. Consulate there that killed four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
The blast did not cause any casualties but blew away large parts of the building's facade, said Col. Abdullah Al Zaydi, spokesman for the Joint Security Task Force in Benghazi, according to Libya's state news agency, LANA.

Expert: U.S. underestimated the threat
Why does President Obama show no interest in revealing all the facts about the original attack on Benghazi? We know everyone covered up for him; why won't he come clean? Was he sleeping; was he preparing a campaign speech; was he trying to figure out a way to blame the famous video(what a joke); was he briefing the administration on what to say for the cover up; or was he just not interested?
