WASHINGTON, Dec. 30 (UPI) -- The United States has no evidence al-Qaida carried out the 2012 attack on its Benghazi, Libya, diplomatic mission, a State Department spokeswoman said Monday.
Marie Harf said at a Washington news briefing, though, that those who carried out the attack that killed four Americans, including U.S. ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens, may "have taken inspiration from al-Qaida ideology, certainly, [and] that's what the investigation is looking into."
