The capture of Ahmed Abu Khattala, the alleged mastermind of the Benghazi attack, has raised questions about why it took nearly two years to apprehend him. State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki was grilled by reporter James Rosen on why Khattala was able to give multiple media interviews while remaining "at large." Psaki defended the timing, stating that meeting with reporters is different from a military operation.

The Wall Street Journal identified Ahmed Abu Khattala as a primary organizer of the Benghazi attack through the group Ansar al-Sharia. Predictions are made that the U.S. government will use drone strikes to eliminate Khattala as a political "spiking of the football" before the election. The existence of the organization and its direct links to Al-Qaeda are questioned.
