US officials involved in embassy security say they weren't notified of imminent threats to four embassies, undermining claims by President Trump

Without knowledge of any alleged threats, the State Department didn't issue warnings about specific dangers to any US embassy before the administration targeted Qasem Soleimani, Iran's second most powerful official, according to the sources.

"We are not going to have another Benghazi," he said, referring to a 2012 attack in Libya that left four Americans dead, including the US ambassador.Pompeo has not said there were any threats to specific US embassies, describing the threat posed by Soleimani as one that"included attacks on US embassies.

Name them or they never said it....

When your time it’s your time God knows, be prepared.

Because he was lying.

For obvious reasons. Leaking .

🔥More stellar government employee careers set to go up in flames by this administration?🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Only the best people!🤔

So they were going to let the embassies be attacked? Isn't that what the mouth-breathers claimed Hillary and Obama did in Benghazi?

CNN, the sheeple Network, for people who don’t want to hear the truth !

Take note Republican Party of what the embassy security staff have said when blindly backing your President.If you allow Trump to continues with his erratic behaviour you must shoulder some of the blame.

لا تقتحم الإسلام وتنقسم إلى مجموعات. أي حزب الإسلام يأخذ! المجموعة الوحيدة من المسلمين ، وهي الإسلام. سني ، وهابي ، خوارج ، شيعة ، إلخ. لن يتم فعل أي شيء على حد تعبير الحج بسبب الشخص الذي اختار الإسلام كإسلام.

You're Wile-e-coyote to Trump's Roadrunner. So craven. So scheming & full of hatred. So inept, lolz. You'll never win with him. Beep-beep!

Everybody who needed to know ( and deserved to know) were told... That's good enough for me...

He continues to lie to the American people and there are never repercussions for it. I don’t get it.

How does it undermine 'claims' made by Trump? Intelligence comes in you act on it............... Threat eliminated Problem solved

Wait a minute, can someone just let D. Trump breathe a sec? Is there a Pdt who's never lied? Has anybody seen a perfect one in the history of America? Why you guys playing holy like Trump was working in favor of Iran? I realize why Trump calls the media's outlet fake news. C'mon!

Quite scary, no prior discussion or consultations. It's life and safety at stake.

I bet those 'officials' were put in there when Hilary ran state...

Why would he notify when he took the guy out?

Oh fake news

Did your no news fake news ever cover Benghazi? I mean the ambassador is still alive and so is the entire embassy staff even after the attempt to storm the embassy. In Benghazi not so much....in fact the Obama administration withheld any kind of rescue..yet CNN..nothing!

Well what did you expect? Trump is not the biggest pathological liar on the planet for nothing.

Just fact it. Trump is a pathological liar.

Maybe you should recheck your facts CNN. Iraq Embassy was Under Siege you're very network was calling it Trump's Benghazi you're just upset that it didn't turn into a Benghazi anything to attack the president. CNN the political agenda Network 24/7 dividing Americans

FakeNews fakenewscnn

ALL were Notified of a raised threat level

Stop trying to undermine him at every turn. You just look so little.

Да не было никакой угрозы посольству. Это только предлог.

Who cares lol

🤡NN

Say what this really is... Trump lied. Again.

Confusion and Chaos is the policy.
