look what can happen works for me. Dear Mr. Fitzgerald : Thank you for your letter about the terrorist attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi, Libya that killed four Americans, including our Ambassador to Libya. I appreciate your taking the time to write and welcome the opportunity to respond. First, I must say that the United States has suffered a terrible loss. Ambassador Chris Stephens, Glen Doherty, Tyrone Woods, and Sean Smith laid down their lives in service to this country. I strongly believe that we owe it to them to determine what happened during the attack to bring those responsible to justice. On November 15 and 16, 2012, the Senate Intelligence Committee, which I chair, held two closed hearings about the circumstances surrounding the Benghazi attack. The Committee will be holding more hearings on this topic, and I expect that there will be public findings coming out of this review. Due to the classified nature of the hearings, I am not at liberty to comment specifically on them. In addition to reviewing the attack in Benghazi, we will also hold additional oversight hearings on threats posed to other U.S. government facilities in the Middle East and North Africa, to ensure that warnings are heard and properly heeded. Again, thank you for your letter. Knowing your views is important to me, and I hope you continue to inform me of issues that matter to you. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to contact my office in Washington, D.C. at (202) 224-3841. Sincerely yours,
