Benghazi is a Dirty Word

       Obama wonders: "Will Benghazi ever go away?"  Hillary wonders about the same thing.  Now we'll get some back story.  Abu Khattala was captured by US  special forces outside of Benghazi on Sunday.  He is in custody somewhere on a Navy ship.  He'll be questioned at length about the raid on the US Embassy that resulted in the death of US Ambassador Stevens and 3 other Americans.
        Questions of the day:  where will the suspect be held?,  who will conduct the questioning?, what, if any, charges could be made?  Will the Libyan government drop its request for the return of suspect who was apprehended without notification of Libyan officials?
        Now it seems Obama has a lot on his foreign affairs desk, the Benghazi suspect is not front page news.  The eyes of the world are focused on Iraq.   Secretary of State John Kerrey is meeting with Premier Karzai, no doubt informing him that the US would appreciate it if he stepped aside.
    We'll know more tomorrow.
