This doesn't even consider their blunder in the handling of the attack on the US facility in Benghazi which got Americans killed.

It was one of the biggest strategic blunders among many by the Obama administration.Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and European envoys are gathering for a summit to seek a lasting cease-fire in the Libyan conflict. But expectations are low.
