Mohamed Magariaf, the president of Libya's congress and its de facto head of state, said Sunday that he has “no doubt” the attacks on the American consulate in Benghazi were planned in advance. Magariaf also said 50 people have been arrested in connection with the attack. American officials, including United States envoy to the United Nations Susan Rice, have said that the attack appears to have been “spontaneous.” In an interview with CBS, Magariaf said that the consulate attack was planned “by people who entered the country a few months ago, and they were planning this criminal act since their arrival.”
