Whoops - down the memory hole

From Irons in the Fire who got it from Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit:

Busted!� State Department Scrubs Damning Memo From Website Following Deadly 9-11 Consulate Attacks
On Wednesday September 12, 2012 blogger Speak With Authority discovered that five days before 9-11, the US State Department sent out a memo announcing no credible security threats against the United States on the anniversary of 9-11.

The Overseas Security Advisory Council, who posted the memo, is part of the Bureau of Diplomatic Security under the U.S. Department of State.

Jim has screencaps -- first it was there and now it is not. No published retraction or other note, just there and then not there. Pathetic... There is also this -- from Powerline:

Chaos at the State Dept?
I spoke with a well-placed journalist last night whose sources describe the situation at the State Department in one word: �Chaos.� The working assumption is that several American embassies may have been penetrated, or are vulnerable to attack, because so many of them rely on local residents for staff needs at the embassy, and as such may be in a position to breach security if they have been recruited by Al Qaida. Moreover, the full story of the attack on the Benghazi consulate is much worse than we have been told (except by the Independent newspaper report John and I linked to here on Thursday).

The consulate in Benghazi was an interim facility, with only a standard door lock for security, and worse, Ambassador Stevens was traveling with only a light security detail, rather than in the heavily armed convoys our diplomats in the region usually employ. The attack on the Benghazi was no mere target of opportunity spurred by reaction to the �Innocence of Muslims� film; the film is just a pretext. The killing of Amb. Stevens was a premeditated hit, planned and carried out as retaliation for the recent drone strike that killed the number two Al Qaida operative in Afghanistan recently. The vulnerability of Stevens at the Benghazi compound was scouted out carefully. All the other embassy protest activity is just covering theater.

What worries me the most is that the 'rioters' got a lot of the paperwork from the embassy -- they will, in a few days or weeks , know who in Libya was working with us and will be able to know our network. What this administration should be doing is exfiltrating those families right now while there is still some measure of confusion on the ground. I hate to think of how many 3:00AM knocks at the door followed by gunfire will be perpetrated on people who trusted us to protect them and who were only looking for a better life and a better Nation.
