“Justice will be done.” The promise came from President Obama on Wednesday, condemning the attacks on the U.S. Embassy in Benghazi, Libya, on the 11th anniversary of 9/11 that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens (pictured) and three other U.S. State Department officials. The Americans were targeted in a rocket attack amid riots over a U.S. film depicting the Prophet Muhammad as a fraud. As details continue to trickle in—sources now say the attack was pre-planned—and violent protests continue in Libya, Tunisia, and Egypt, The Daily Beast revisits the event and chronicles the aftermath.
