DUNCAN: I can’t discuss the possibility of U.S. involvement in Syria’s civil war without also talking about Benghazi. The administration has a serious credibility issue with the American people (inaudible) surrounding the questions the terrorist attack in Benghazi almost a year ago. When you factor in the IRS targeting of conservative groups, the AP and James Rosen issues, Fast and Furious and NSA spying program, the bottom line is, there is a need for accountability and trust-building from the administration…The administration has a credibility issue. In my opinion, Secretaries Kerry and Hagel, Benghazi is germane to the discussions of Syria because as you stated, Mr. Secretary, the world was and is watching for our response, but after almost a year of not bringing anyone to justice in Benghazi, they are watching our response. Mr. Kerry, your predecessor asked “What difference does it make now?,” well this is the difference, Mr. Secretary. These issues call into question the accountability of this administration. It’s commitment to the personnel on the ground and the judgement that it uses when making these determinations. The American people deserve answers before we move forward talking about Military involvement in Syria.
