One of the leaders of the 2012 attack by Islamic terrorists on the US consulate in Benghazi was captured over the weekend in Libya. Special forces mounted a raid into that country and took Mustafa Al Imam to a ship offshore in the Mediterranean Sea. No one is certain of the terrorist's present location, but he is believed to be on his way back to the USA to stand trial for his role in the attack in Benghazi that left four US dead including our ambassador to Libya.
This is great news. Five years after the Benghazi attack, American forces are finally responding to that attack. The capture of the terrorist took place on Saturday, but it was not announced until today once the US ship is no longer near the Libyan coast.
The saddest thing about this news is the reaction from many in the media. They are tweeting about whether or not the capture of the terrorist leader was just something done to take attention away from the indictment of Paul Manafort. That's truly disgraceful. This terrorist led an attack that killed four innocent Americans. When we catch him, the reason is because he needed to be caught and prosecuted. Any suggestion otherwise is despicable.
