[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote]You are clearly reading challenged. Quoting is not the only way an interview can be used.

Boy.  Alinsky is busy today.  He made a point of telling the reader that the article centered on interviews with Libyans on the ground.  No where does he indicate or give any new information from other sources.[/quote]

Your constant citation of Alinsky is very lazy. It is a crutch to avoid substantive discussion would actually require thought on your part. It reflects much more poorly on you than the person to whom you make the accusation.

Regarding the article, I'm pretty sure that you haven't read it. If you have read it, I have to agree with the poster above that your reading skills leave much to be desired. But, just a few of examples of information that was clearly obtained from interviews with US officials:

"Looters and arsonists, without any sign of a plan, were the ones who ravaged the compound after the initial attack, [b]according to[/b] more than a dozen Libyan witnesses as well as [b]many American officials[/b] who have viewed the footage from security cameras."

"several officials who received the briefings said."

"I knew the backup guys at the Annex, who were quite heavily trained and equipped," said an Obama administration official who visited in the months before the attack."

“We heard a lot about Sufian bin Qumu,” said one American diplomat in Libya at the time. “I don’t know if we ever heard anything about Ansar al-Shariah.”

"Mr. Bukatef of the February 17 Brigade was a fluent English speaker who visited the American compound in Benghazi so often that “it was like he was my best friend,” one diplomat joked."

Seriously, I don't know how you could have read the article and come away thinking that only Libyans were interviewed.

What is the Alinsky number for not being able to read very well?
