--The currently available information suggests that the demonstrations in Benghazi were spontaneously Inspired by the

protests at the US Embassy in Cairo and evolved into a direct assault against the US diplomatic post in Benghazi and

subsequently its annex. There are indications that extremists participated in the violent demonstrations.

--This assessment may change as additional information is collected and analyzed and as currently available information

continues to be evaluated.

--The investigation is on-going, and the US Government is working with Libyan authorities to bring to justice those responsible for the deaths of US citizens.
