The Clintons themselves were never prosecuted, after three separate inquiries found insufficient evidence linking them with the criminal conduct of others related to the land deal,
small wonder when Witnesses were dying right and left!

Just another old Clinton LIE... They just never stop
If so it is major blow to her Presidential hopes. She will be fighting a major court criminal battle while attempting to campaign.
Here is what happening. Hillary's server emails are being reviewed by the Statement department to see if any had secret intelligence in them. Each time the State releases a group of reviewed document....some have been 'redacted'...redacted means that they have blacked out certain lines, subjects and persons because they are classified or secret.
So?
The FBI that is investigating if any crime was committed by Hillary having a unsecured server and was not keeping the email secured. Is getting evidence from the State Department....that such. The FBI would file the indictment.
The more released emails that are redacted.....the more a FBI case grows.
But?
Will President Obama and his Attorney General prosecute the case? Here I think not. President Obama needs a DEM to win the WH to keep his legacy solid. All the REP are going to scuttle it....Obamacare...Executive orders...foreign policy....all get redone with a REP win.
Hillary is the best person to jeep his legacy going.

So much for our concept that "Justice is Blind." How nice to know that these three LAWYERS (Obama, Clinton and Lynch) have decided to pick and choose who wins in their little kingdom.
As said earlier, the liberal media is in the tank for the the two DEMs. Burying bad of a preferred candidate polling is a old new story. But it seems that the media is taking it to a new level.
I believe Hillary Clinton thinks the USA electorate is dumb dumb dumb. Why else would she explain that the terrorist act in Benghazi was a spontaneous reaction to a cartoon about Muhammad, or whoever? Actually, Clinton also insulted the entire Muslim world saying that.
She tried to cover up her nonfeasance and malfeasance as Secretary of State by this lie. Why would she stop lying here? Are we the electorate that dumb, after surviving four years under her mentor's destructive rule, to elect her to be POTUS? God help the world if she is elected.

A YouTube video was cited as a possible reason for Benghazi because violent protests had been erupting throughout the Middle East when Benghazi took place. Some of the protests had to do with the YouTube video, which is why it was originally thought Benghazi was also related to the YouTube video.
WhatUwish4: Probably. She and Bill should both be prohibited from soliciting ANY $$$ for her foundation while she is president (like she did as Secretary of State). This is collusion of the worst sort, and who knows what government "perks" she would be willing to give to foreign nations and individuals in exchange for private $$$$$$?

Oops, you are right about the video on you tube. Here is a link that sums up clearly how Clinton wanted most of us to believe this video incited the deaths of Americans in Benghazi, while at the same time Clinton told her family and the leaders in Egypt it was a terrorist attack and nothing to do with the video found on YouTube.

Theyve wasted more taxpayer money on sham trials, hearings and investigations, if they include wasting the publics productivity than the entire federal government.

What Clinton said about Benghazi
As we have noted before, there was initial confusion about the cause of the attack at the time it happened. One key question was whether Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice purposefully downplayed the idea that it was a terrorist attack when she spoke on five Sunday talk shows days after the incident, instead suggesting that it a spontaneous reaction to a movie that mocked Islam. That movie had drawn protests around the Middle East at about the same time that the Benghazi attack happened.
Here are Clinton’s key comments:
Sept. 11, 2012: The attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound begins at 3:40 p.m. ET (9:40 p.m. in Benghazi); an attack on a CIA mission annex begins at 6 p.m. ET. Four Americans die in the attacks.
Sept. 11, 2012: During a phone call with Libyan President Mohamed Magariaf around 8 p.m. ET, Clinton said she understood Ansar al-Sharia, an al-Qaida-affiliated group, claimed responsibility for the attacks, according to notes from that conversation documented in a State Department email. However, Ansar al-Sharia soon retracted the claim.
Clinton issued a public statement at 10:08 p.m. that didn’t indicate a cause for the attack but said, "Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. ..."
At 11:12 p.m., Clinton sent an email to her daughter Chelsea saying: "Two of our officers were killed in Benghazi by an al Queda-like (sic) group. The ambassador, whom I hand picked and a young communications officer on temporary duty w a wife and two young children. Very hard day and I fear more of the same."
Sept. 12, 2012: In a call with Egyptian Prime Minister Hesham Kandil, Clinton said, "We know that the attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film. It was a planned attack — not a protest. Based on the information we saw today we believe the group that claimed responsibility for this was affiliated with al-Qaeda."
Sept. 13, 2012: In public remarks with Moroccan Foreign Minister Saad-Eddine Al-Othmani, she condemned the video, saying, "I also want to take a moment to address the video circulating on the Internet that has led to these protests in a number of countries.. ...."
Clinton did not say, though, that the video sparked the attack in Benghazi.
Sept. 14, 2012: At a ceremony, Clinton said, "This has been a difficult week for the State Department and for our country. We’ve seen the heavy assault on our post in Benghazi that took the lives of those brave men. We’ve seen rage and violence directed at American embassies over an awful Internet video that we had nothing to do with. The people of Egypt, Libya, Yemen, and Tunisia did not trade the tyranny of a dictator for the tyranny of a mob."
So she mentions Benghazi in one sentence and then more broadly "American embassies" in the next sentence.
Sept. 20, 2012: During a press conference Clinton talked about "protests in several countries around the world" and then said, "And as I have said the video that sparked these protests is disgusting and reprehensible, and the United States government, of course, had absolutely nothing to do with it." Clinton didn’t specify Benghazi in these comments.
Sept. 21, 2012: Clinton talked at a press conference about protests in several cities in Pakistan and then said:
"We found the video that’s at the core of this series of events offensive, disgusting, reprehensible. But that does not provide justification for violence, and therefore it is important for responsible leaders, indeed responsible people everywhere, to stand up and speak out against violence and particularly against those who would exploit this difficult moment to advance their own extremist ideologies. Yesterday afternoon, when I briefed the Congress, I made it clear that keeping our people everywhere in the world safe is our top priority. What happened in Benghazi was a terrorist attack, and we will not rest until we have tracked down and brought to justice the terrorists who murdered four Americans."
It would be possible for a listener to conflate her comments about the video and Benghazi, but if you look closely at her statement she doesn’t do that.She blames the video on protests in Pakistan, but when she talks about Benghazi a couple of sentences later, she blames it on terrorism.
Ok, Clinton states very clearly it was a mob, not terrorist... as coffins arrive.... About 1 minute into this video.
"We've seen rage and violence directed at American embassies over an awful Internet video blah blah blah (still publicly insisting mob murders, not terrorist) it is difficult for Americans to make sense of (another insult) blah blah blah people of Libya, Egypt blah blah blah did not trade the tyranny of a dictator for the tyranny of a Mob (mob should be terrorist)

i don't think she is INSISTING on anything. she's reading from a script that someone probably wrote for her. if she had to do it all over again, i'm sure she would have edited the word (mob) out.

I'm sure that her deputy chief of staff, Huma Abedin, reviewed stuff like this for accuracy.

Hillary Clinton - While standing at at Dover AFB to witness the return of the coffins of the Americans killed in Benghazi. She had this to say: This has been a difficult week for the State Department and for our country. We’ve seen the heavy assault on our post in Benghazi that took the lives of those brave men. We’ve seen rage and violence directed at American embassies over an awful internet video that we had nothing to do with. It is hard for the American people to make sense of that because it is senseless, and it is totally unacceptable.
There's not a lot of gray area here. She lied, blatantly and inexcusably/
If you don't think she deliberately deceived with her comments like this, ask yourself one thing...
Can anyone recall her EVER saying "some will say it was the video but WE KNOW IT WAS A TERRORIST ATTACK." Or "WE KNEW IT WAS A TERRORIST ATTACK WITHIN HOURS."
Nope, she never once said it until her cover was blown and their pathetic lie was exposed to the world.
The loss of life in Benghazi was a tragedy but the questions of what happened that night have already been asked and answered," the group said in an email. "Republicans have no credibility on this issue and are wasting taxpayer dollars on these sham hearings to ask questions that have already been answered, all for political gain: both to drive up their base turnout in 2014 and to go after Secretary Clinton for 2016."
Clinton has taken responsibility in the attacks and has told a number of groups that it was her biggest regret at the State Department. In her memoir, "Hard Choices," she knocks those "who exploit" Benghazi for political gain and says, "Those who insist on politicizing the tragedy will have to do so without me."

Just out of curiosity, have you ever had an independent thought or do you sit around all day sifting through DNC talking points to see what you can copy and paste?
This cut and paste has NO BEARING on the fact that she lied about the video. NONE. "Taking responsibility for the attacks," is not the same as "I'm sorry I deliberately deceived you all by trying to imply the attacks were due to a video and not our FAILED FOREIGN POLICY."
