Two of the four deaths might have been prevented if military leaders knew more about the intensity of the sporadic gunfire directed at the CIA facility where Americans had taken refuge and they had pressed to get a rescue team there faster.

FILE - This Nov. 15, 2012 file photo shows Gen. Carter Ham, then-head of the U.S. Africa Command, at the University of Sciences Politiques, in Paris. Two of the four U.S. deaths in Benghazi might have been prevented if military leaders knew more about the intensity of the sporadic gunfire directed at the CIA facility where Americans had taken refuge and they had pressed to get a rescue team there faster. In closed-door, congressional testimony, now-retired Gen. Carter Ham and other top military commanders described the chaotic night of Sept. 11, 2012, in which they thought Americans were safe, not facing sometimes sustained gunfire throughout the night, and were focused on a potential hostage situation when, in fact, Ambassador Chris Stevens was already dead.

Newly revealed testimony from top military commanders involved in the U.S. response to the Benghazi attacks suggests that the perpetrators of a second, dawn attack on a CIA complex probably were different from those who penetrated the U.S. diplomatic mission the evening before and set it ablaze, killing Ambassador Chris Stevens and another American. The second attack, which killed two security contractors, showed clear military training, retired Gen. Carter Ham told Congress in closed-door testimony. (AP Photo/Mohammad Hannon, File)

FILE - This Dec. 3, 2011 file photo shows Iraq's Shiite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki talks during an interview with The Associated Press in Baghdad, Iraq.

Lawmakers who eagerly voted to authorize military force 12 years ago to oust Saddam Hussein and destroy weapons of mass destruction that were never found now harbor doubts that air strikes will turn back insurgents threatening Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki's government and Baghdad.
